These vehicles operate using petrol or  
LPG.  
They have two separate tanks.  
Warning lights A (4 green lights and

The red warning light indicates the fuel

LPG stands for Liquefied Petroleum  
Gas.  
It can be readily identified by its charac-  
teristic smell.  
The amount of LPG indicated is an in-  
dicative value.  
The red warning light indicates that  
the tank is almost empty and that the  
engine is operating using the fuel tank  
(approximately 11 to 13 litres).

SPECIAL FEATURES OF LPG VERSIONS (3/3)  
If driving under severe  
conditions  
If driving under severe conditions  
(heavily laden vehicle, high outside  
temperature, starting on a steep slope,  
etc), you are recommended to switch to  
petrol mode.  
LPG has a very specific  
smell so you will be able to  
detect any leaks easily. If  
you smell gas in your vehi-  
cle or immediately surrounding your  
vehicle:  
– switch to petrol mode immedi-  
ately and make sure there are no  
flames or sources of fire near the  
vehicle;  
In the event of an accident  
– go to an authorised dealer.  
The main precautions to be taken are  
the same as with petrol vehicles:  
– apply the handbrake;  
– stop the engine (a safety device that  
stops LPG from entering the engine  
is automatically triggered);  
– switch off the ignition;  
– observe local regulations.  
Do not touch, hit or dis-  
mantle any part of the LPG  
system components.
