there until vehicle is delivered to retail owner.
vbl2006-008-010
FLUIDS
All fluids (except fuel) have already been filled
at factory, it is only necessary to validate them.
However, if refill is needed, refer to the ap-
propriate
ATVSHOPMANUAL for the proper
procedure.
Fuel
Add fuel in the fuel reservoir.
Recommended Fuel
Use regular unleaded gasoline or gasohol contain-
ing less than 10% of ethanol or methanol, avail-
able from most service stations.
Refer to the following table for recommended
minimum octane number:
COUNTRY OCTANE NUMBER

WARNING
Always stop engine before refueling. Open
cap slowly. If a differential pressure con-
dition is noticed (whistling sound heard
when loosening fuel tank cap) have vehi-
cle inspected and/or repaired before further
operation. Fuel is flammable and explosive
under certain conditions. Never use an open
flame to check fuel level. Never smoke or
allow flame or spark in vicinity. Always work
in a well-ventilated area. Never top up the
fuel tank before placing the vehicle in a warm
area. As temperature increases, fuel expands
and may overflow. Always wipe off any fuel
or oil spillage from the vehicle.
NOTICE Never place anything over fuel tank
cap as this could block the vent hole, leading
to engine misfire.
NOTICE Never experiment with other fuels.
The use of a non recommended fuel can result
in vehicle performance deterioration and dam-
age to critical components in the fuel system
and the engine.
NOTICE Never mix oil with fuel. This vehicle
has a 4-stroke engine. Oil is added in the en-
gine only.
