Checking the gasoline

Remove the filler cap and check the fuel level. Refill the tank if the fuel
level is low. Do not fill above the shoulder of fuel strainer.
Use automotive unleaded gasoline with a Research Octane Number of
91 or higher (a Pump Octane Number of 86 or higher).
Never use stale or contaminated gasoline or an oil/gasoline mixture.
Avoid getting dirt or water in the fuel tank.
• Gasoline is extremely flammable and is explosive under certain 
conditions.
• Refuel in a well-ventilated area with the engine stopped. Do not
smoke or allow flames or sparks in the area where the engine is 
refueled or where gasoline is stored.
• Do not overfill the fuel tank (there should be no fuel in the filler neck).
After refueling, make sure the filler cap is closed properly and
securely.
• Be careful not to spill fuel when refueling. Spilled fuel or fuel vapor
may ignite. If any fuel is spilled, make sure the area is dry before
starting the engine.
• Avoid repeated or prolonged contact with skin or breathing of vapor.
