WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES 273 ADDING FUEL If using a portable fuel container, it should have a flexible nozzle long enough to reach past the restriction in the fuel filler tube. WARNING! Remove the gas cap slowly to prevent fuel spray from the filler neck which may cause injury. The volatility of present gasolines may cause a build up of pressure in the fuel tank that may increase while you drive. This pressure can result in a spray of gasoline and/or vapors when you remove the cap from a hot vehicle. Removing the cap slowly allows the pressure to vent and prevents fuel spray. Never allow any lit smoking materials near the vehicles while removing the cap or filling the tank. Never add fuel to the vehicle when the engine is running. WARNING! A fire may result if gasoline is pumped into a portable container that is in a vehicle or on a truck bed. You could be burned. Always place gas containers on the ground while filling. 6
