If driving under severe

conditions

If driving in severe conditions (starting

on a steep incline etc.), it is advisable

to switch to petrol mode.

At temperatures close to 0°C or less, it

is recommended to use ECO mode to

maximise the use of LPG mode ➥ 2.28.

In the event of an accident

The main precautions to be taken are

the same as with petrol vehicles:

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;

– apply the parking brake;

– stop the engine (a safety device that

stops LPG from entering the engine

is automatically triggered);

– switch off the ignition;

– observe local regulations.

– go to an authorised dealer.

Do not touch, hit or dis-

mantle any part of the LPG

system components.
