VERY IMPORTANT: Please read and pass it on. 各位DX给车加油的时候千万小心!

VERY IMPORTANT: Please read and pass it on.

There have been 3 known cases so far.

Case 1
2 months ago at a gas station, the car owner put his hand phone on the
bumper and started pumping fuel. The phone rang and the car caught fire
from the fumes coming out of the tank.

Case 2
A man got his face burnt while talking on the phone as he was pumping
gas.

Case 3
A man burnt his pants because the phone was in his pants pocket
and rang while pumping gas.

Obviously, using a handsfree WILL NOT reduce the risk.

KEEP THE PHONE IN THE CAR, away from the fumes.
Almost all phones will indicate "Missed Calls" & the number.
So why take the risk? Apparently it is the key pad or ringer that
produces a small amount of electricity spark, enough to ignite the
gas fumes. Please take note and forward this to your friends.
