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
by a specialist company.
