!CAUTION

Fuel vapors are flammable and explosive. Do not store a vehicle with fuel in the tank in a building where fumes can reach a spark or an open flames (i.e. plug-in sockets, light switches, light fixtures, power tools, welders, pilot lights and stoves).

6.Prepare fuel system as follows:

Short term storage (90 days or less):

a.Siphon most of the fuel from the tank.

b.Add fuel stabilizer to the tank per manufacturers recommendation.

IMPORTANT: Do not use fuel additives containing methanol or ethanol.
