when refuelling.  
The natural gas tanks in the vehicle must not be ex-  
posed to undesirable heat sources.  
Do not enter the vehicle when refuelling with natu-  
ral gas. Electrostatic discharges may occur when

The natural gas refuelling systems have an overfill  
protection with a dependence to the outdoor tem-  
perature. With very high outside temperatures, it  
may not be possible to fully refuel the natural gas  
tank.  
If the car is parked directly after a refuelling op-  
eration, on restart the pointer of the gas gauge may  
not show exactly the same level as immediately after  
the filling process. This is not a leak in the system,  
but a reduction in pressure due to the cooling of the  
gas in the natural gas container after refuelling.  
Troubleshooting  
Unknown refuelling system  
Natural gas refuelling may vary from station to sta-  
tion. If refuelling with natural gas at a station is unfa-  
miliar to you, get someone to instruct you or allow  
the fuelling operation to be carried out by the station  
staff.  
Gas leakage  
If a gas leak is suspected (perceptible odour), pro-  
ceed as follows.  
Stop the vehicle.  
Switch off the ignition.  
Extinguish cigarettes, switch off spark-producing  
or incendiary items and remove them from the ve-  
hicle.  
›
›
›
Open doors and the boot lid to ventilate the vehi-  
cle sufficiently.  
›
Do not continue to drive if the odour persists.  
If it is not possible to drive a vehicle with a gas leak  
out of an enclosed area (e.g. tunnel, underpass, ga-  
rage, ferry etc.), call the emergency services imme-  
diately.

Ensure a gas system test is carried out immediately
