GENERAL INFORMATION
81
WARNING
Gasoline is extremely flammable
and can be explosive under cer-
tain conditions, creating the po-
tential for serious burns.
Turn
the ignition switch to “OFF”. Do
not smoke. Make sure the area
is well-ventilated and free from
any source of flame or sparks;
this includes any appliance with
a pilot light.
Never fill the tank
completely to the top. If the tank
is filled completely to the top,
heat may cause the fuel to ex-
pand and overflow through the
vents in the tank cap.
After re-
fueling, make sure the tank cap
is closed securely. If gasoline is
spilled on the fuel tank, wipe it
off immediately.
NOTICE
California models only:
Never
fill the tank so the fuel level rises
into the filler neck. If the tank is
overfilled, heat may cause the
fuel to expand and flow into the
Evaporative
Emission
Control
System resulting in hard start-
ing and engine hesitation and
in compliance with the emission
regulation.
Fuel Requirement
Fuel Type
Use clean, fresh unleaded gasoline
with a minimum Antiknock Index of 90.
The Antiknock Index is posted on ser-
vice station pumps. The octane rating
of a gasoline is a measure of its resis-
tance to detonation or “knocking.” The
Antiknock Index is an average of the
