Matikan enjin semasa mengisi minyak.Minyak dalam bentuk wap (vapour) amat merbahaya. Sebab sangat mudah untuk terbakar.Sedikit sahaja elektrik statik cukup untuk mulakan pembakaran.Mujur staff stesen ni terlatih, cekap dan pantas bertindak memadamkan kebakaran.Ps : kalau ada kebakaran minyak, jangan guna air. Lagi galak dia merebak.Sila la kongsi untuk peringatan bersama.
