BEFORE SERVICE PRECAUTION [LF]

FUEL LINE SAFETY PROCEDURE

1. Remove the fuel-filler cap to release the pressure inside the fuel tank.

2. Remove the fuel pump relay.

WARNING:



Fuel vapor is hazardous. It can very easily ignite, causing serious
injury and damage. Always keep sparks and flames away from fuel.



Fuel line spills and leakage from the pressurized fuel system are
dangerous. Fuel can ignite and cause serious injury or death and
damage. Fuel can also irritate skin and eyes. To prevent this, always
complete the "Fuel Line Safety Procedure".



A person charged with static electricity could cause a fire or
explosion, resulting in death or serious injury. Before performing
work on the fuel system, discharge static electricity by touching the
vehicle body.

CAUTION:



If there is foreign material on the connecting area of the quick release
connector, it might damage the connector or fuel pipe. To prevent
this, disconnect the connector and clean the connecting area before
connecting.
