Whenever you are around gasoline, avoid inhaling
fumes and skin contact, extinguish all smoking
materials. Never allow sparks, flame or smoking

Overfilling of fuel tank may result in creating
pressure in the system which could cause a gas

removing the filler nozzle which could cause
personal injury.
