Carbon Monoxide HazardRefuel With Care
OUTBOARD MOTOR SAFETY
Gasoline is extremely flammable,
and gasoline vapor can explode.
Refuel outdoors, in a well-
ventilated area, with the engine
stopped. Never smoke near
gasoline, and keep other flames
and sparks away.
Refuel carefully to avoid spilling
fuel. Avoid overfilling the fuel
tank.
After refueling, tighten the filler
cap securely. If any fuel is spilled,
make sure the area is dry before
starting the engine.
Exhaust contains poisonous carbon
monoxide, a colorless, odorless gas.
Breathing carbon monoxide can
cause loss of consciousness and may
lead to death.
If you run the engine in an area that
is confined, or even partly enclosed,
the air you breathe could contain a
dangerous amount of exhaust gas.
Never run your outboard inside a
garage or other enclosure.
