FUEL REQUIREMENTS
GASOLINE (PETROL)
WARNING
GASOLINE (PETROL) AND ITS VAPORS
ARE HIGHLY FLAMMABLE AND EXPLO-
SIVE!
● Do not smoke when refueling, and
keep away from sparks, flames, or
other sources of ignition.
● Stop the engine before refueling.
● Refuel in a well-ventilated area. Do not
stand or sit on the vehicle while refuel-
ing in case of fire.
● Take care not to spill gasoline (petrol).
If gasoline (petrol) spills, wipe it up
immediately with dry rags. Always
properly dispose of gasoline-soaked
rags.
● Avoid overfilling the fuel tank. Stop fill-
ing when the fuel level just reaches the
bottom of the filler tube. Do not fill up
the filler tube because fuel expands as
it warms up and could overflow.
● Tighten the filler cap securely after
refueling.
● If you should swallow some gasoline
(petrol), inhale a lot of gasoline (petrol)
vapor, or get gasoline (petrol) in your
eyes, get immediate medical attention.
● If any gasoline (petrol) spills onto your
skin, immediately wash with soap and
water. Change clothing if gasoline
(petrol) spills on it.
CAUTION:
● Do not use leaded gasoline. Leaded
gasoline can seriously damage the
catalytic converter.
● Use only fresh gasoline (petrol) that
has been stored in clean containers.
Gasohol
There are two types of gasohol: gasohol
containing ethanol and that containing meth-
anol. Gasohol containing ethanol can be
used if ethanol content does not exceed
10% and the fuel meets minimum octane
ratings. Gasohol containing methanol is not
recommended by Yamaha because it can
cause fuel system damage or engine perfor-
mance problems.
