Your Yamaha engine has been designed to use regular unleaded gasoline with a pump octane number ([R+M]/2) of 86 or higher, or research octane number of 91 or higher. If knocking or pinging occurs, use a different brand of gasoline or premium unleaded fuel. Unleaded fuel will give you longer spark plug life and reduced maintenance cost. Gasohol There are two types of gasohol: gasohol containing ethanol and that containing methanol. Gasohol containing ethanol can be used if ethanol content does not exceed 10%. Gasohol containing methanol is not recommended by Yamaha because it may cause fuel system damage or vehicle performance problems. Recommended fuel: Unleaded gasoline only Fuel tank capacity: 30.0 L (7.93 US gal, 6.60 Imp.gal) Portable gas containers If you carry a portable gas can in the bed of the Rhino, be sure to secure it with the cap tightened before driving the vehicle. Always place a portable gas container on the ground before filling it. Before removing the container cap, touch the container with the gas dispenser nozzle. Keep gas dispenser nozzle in contact with container inlet when filling. WARNING! Never refill a fuel container in the bed of any vehicle. Fire may result from a build-up of static electricity. The discharge of this build-up while refueling can cause a spark and ignite the gasoline. 5-5

Your Yamaha engine has been designed to
use regular unleaded gasoline with a pump
octane number ([R+M]/2) of 86 or higher, or
research octane number of 91 or higher. If
knocking or pinging occurs, use a different
brand of gasoline or premium unleaded fuel.
Unleaded fuel will give you longer spark plug
life and reduced maintenance cost.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gasohol con-
taining ethanol and that containing methanol.
Gasohol containing ethanol can be used if
ethanol content does not exceed 10%. Gaso-
hol containing methanol is not recommended
by Yamaha because it may cause fuel system
damage or vehicle performance problems.
Portable gas containers
If you carry a portable gas can in the bed of
the Rhino, be sure to secure it with the cap
tightened before driving the vehicle.
Always place a portable gas container on the
ground before filling it. Before removing the
container cap, touch the container with the
gas dispenser nozzle. Keep gas dispenser
nozzle in contact with container inlet when fill-
ing.
WARNING! Never refill a fuel container
in the bed of any vehicle. Fire may result
from a build-up of static electricity. The
discharge of this build-up while refueling
can cause a spark and ignite the gasoline.
Recommended fuel:
Unleaded gasoline only
Fuel tank capacity:
