Running on petrol

WARNING
LPG is a highly explosive and inflammable substance. It may cause se-
vere burns and other injury.
Due care must be taken to avoid any risk of fire or explosion.
When parking the vehicle in a closed area (for example in a garage),
make sure that there is adequate ventilation, either natural or mechani-
cal, to neutralise the LPG in the event of a leak.
Note
If frequent short journeys are made, especially when the outside tem-
perature is low, the vehicle will tend to run on petrol more often than on
LPG. Therefore, the petrol tank may empty before the LPG tank.
The notification LPG mode not possible may be displayed.
