248 Checking and refilling levels
The engine management automatically adapts to the natural gas used ac-
cording to its quality. Therefore, different quality gases can be mixed in the
tank, without the need for comprehensive draining before applying a differ-
ent quality gas.
The instrument panel display shows information on the current natural gas
quality ⇒ page 73.
