śꢀ Do not get back into a vehicle
once you have begun refuelling.
You can generate a build-up of
static electricity by touching,
rubbing or sliding against any item
or fabric capable of producing
static electricity. Static electricity
discharge can ignite fuel vapours
causing a fire. If you must re-enter
the vehicle, you should once again
eliminate potentially dangerous
static electricity discharge by
touching a metal part of the vehicle,
away from the fuel filler neck, nozzle
or other petrol source, with your bare
hand.
śꢀ When refuelling, always move the
shift lever to the N (Neutral, for
Automatic transmission/Dual clutch

śꢀ If pressurized fuel sprays out, it can
cover your clothes or skin and thus
subject you to the risk of fire and
burns. Always remove the fuel cap
carefully and slowly. If the cap is
venting fuel or if you hear a hissing
sound, wait until the condition stops
before completely removing the cap.
śꢀ Always check that the fuel cap is
installed securely to prevent fuel
spillage in the event of an accident.

i
śꢀ When using an approved portable
fuel container, be sure to place
the container on the ground prior
to refuelling. Static electricity
discharge from the container can
ignite fuel vapours causing a fire.
Once refuelling has begun, contact
between your bare hand and the
vehicle should be maintained until
the filling is complete.
