WARNING!
 
Risk of explosion, poisoning and injury working with fuel!
Fuels are highly flammable and toxic if inhaled. Fuel vapours are explosive, invisible and spread out at floor level. This vapour is poisonous when inhaled and has an anesthetizing effect in high concentrations. Fuel can cause damage to skin. For example, skin is degreased when it comes into contact with gasoline fuel.
Observe the national safety precautions and regulations.
Keep fuel away from fire, open light or ignition sources.
Ensure the work place is adequately ventilated.
Never drain or pour in fuels over assembly pits.
Store drained fuel in a suitable and sealed vessel.
Immediately eliminate any fuel which has flowed out.
Conducting work on a vehicle with open flames (e. g. welding etc.).
Before carrying out this work, remove relevant parts of fuel system and seal open fuel lines with plugs.
