Filling vehicle gas*
Points to remember when filling vehicle gas
(CNG - Compressed Natural Gas) for cars with
the Bi-Fuel engine alternative.
Filling
Vehicle gas is filled via the gas nipple that is
located next to the fuel cap inside the fuel filler
flap.
1. Open the fuel filler flap and remove the nip-
ple's protective cover.
2. Push the nozzle towards the nipple and
make sure that the hose nozzle is attached
by turning the handle on the nozzle to the
left.
3. Then hold the start button on the gas pump
depressed for approx. 5 seconds.
> The tank is filled in a couple of minutes.
4. Remove the nozzle by turning its handle to
the right.

the fuel filler flap.

Switch for gas operation*
For cars with the Bi-Fuel engine alternative there
is a switch to change between gas operation
(CNG - Compressed Natural Gas) and petrol
operation. This is located by the centre console.
Operation
Press the switch to change between gas opera-
tion and petrol operation.
When the switchover takes place a clicking noise
can be heard in the cargo area. This is normal -
the noise is created when the tank valves open.
The switch has two positions:
•
BI-FUEL illuminates in green - the car is
being driven on vehicle gas
•
BI-FUEL illuminates in amber - the car is
being driven on petrol (fuel gauge for vehicle
gas is extinguished).
