Dry cleaning solvent (E162) is
flammable and toxic. It can irritate

well-ventilated area, away from heat
and open flame. In case of contact,
immediately flush skin or eyes with
water for at least 15 minutes. Get
medical attention for eyes.

pump in No. 1 or No. 2 fuel system
aft fuel tank. Installation of No. 1 (left)

hole in tank (1). Clean tape residue from tank.
Use dry cleaning solvent (E162) and cloths

Do not puncture or scratch lining
of fuel tank. If lining is broken, fuel
penetrates and activates self-sealing
layers. Activated layers swell and trap
fuel. Activated green spongy material
also contaminates fuel system. This
makes it necessary to replace fuel
tank and flush fuel system.
