�.5 Dangeroffire,Dangerofexplosion
There is a risk of fire and explosion from fuels
and fuel vapors when work is performed on the
fuel system or on the mixture control system.
Safety measures:
¶
Switch off the ignition.
¶
Allow the engine to cool down first.
¶
Avoid naked flames and potential sources of sparks.
¶
Do not smoke.
¶
Collect any leaked fuel.
¶
Always ensure effective ventilation and suction when
working in closed areas.
�.6 Dangerofasphyxiation
Car exhaust fumes contain carbon monoxide
(CO) - a colorless, odorless gas. If inhaled,
carbon monoxide causes an oxygen deficiency
in the body. Extreme caution is therefore es-
sential when working in a pit, as some of the
components of the exhaust gas are heavier
than air and settle at the bottom of the pit.
Caution is also necessary when working on
LPG-driven vehicles.
Safety measures:
¶
Always ensure effective ventilation and suction (es-
pecially when working in a pit).
¶
Always switch on and connect the suction plant in a
closed area.

ner at all workplaces in the vicinity of the testing area.
