unattended.
.
Avoid using electronic
devices while refueling.
.
Do not re-enter the vehicle
while pumping fuel.
.
Keep children away from
the fuel pump and never let
children pump fuel.
.
Before touching the fill
nozzle, touch a metallic
object to discharge static
electricity from your body.
.
Fuel can spray out if the fuel
cap is opened too quickly.
This spray can happen if the
tank is nearly full, and is
more likely in hot weather.
Open the fuel cap slowly
and wait for any hiss noise
to stop, then unscrew the
cap all the way.
Turn the fuel cap counterclockwise
to remove. Fully insert and latch the
fill nozzle, begin fueling. If the
vehicle is a dual fuel tank chassis
cab model, and it runs out of fuel,
refuel the front fuel tank first to
ensure a quick restart.

than three clicks of a standard fill
nozzle may cause:

fuel fires.
Be careful not to spill fuel. Wait
five seconds after you have finished
pumping before removing the fill
nozzle. Clean fuel from painted
surfaces as soon as possible. See

cap by turning it clockwise until it
clicks.
