Lincoln Aviator: Fuel Filler Funnel Location. Running Out of Fuel / Filling a Portable Fuel Container
WARNING: Flow of fuel through a
fuel pump nozzle can produce static
electricity. This can cause a fire if you are
filling an ungrounded fuel container.
Use the following guidelines to avoid
electrostatic charge build-up, which can
produce a spark, when filling an ungrounded
fuel container:
- Only use an approved fuel container to
transfer fuel to your vehicle. Place the
container on the ground when filling it.
- Do not fill a fuel container when it is
inside your vehicle (including the cargo
area).
- Keep the fuel pump nozzle in contact
with the fuel container when filling it.
- Do not use a device that holds the fuel
pump nozzle lever in the fill position.
