2.1 Safety precautions when working on
fuel supply system
Leaking fuel creates a fire hazard
When the battery is connected, the door contact switch activates
the fuel pump when the driver door is opened. Escaping fuel can
ignite and cause a fire.
– Interrupt the supply voltage to the fuel pump before opening
the fuel system.
Risk of injury caused by fuel which is under high pressure.
The fuel system is under pressure. There is a risk of injury from
ejected fuel.
Before opening the fuel system:
– Wear safety goggles.
– Wear protective gloves.
– Relieve the pressure: place clean cloths around the connec‐
tion point and carefully open the connecting point.
Malfunctions caused by air in the fuel supply
After working on the fuel tank or the fuel delivery unit, the dosing
pump takes in air and conveys the air to the auxiliary heating. The
auxiliary heating may malfunction as a result of air in the fuel sup‐
ply to the auxiliary heating.
– Fill the new fuel extraction pipe with fuel.
2.2 Safety precautions for working on vehi‐
cles with start-stop system
Risk of injury due to automatic engine start.
The engine may start up unexpectedly on vehicles with activated
start-stop system. A message in the dash panel insert indicates
whether the start-stop system is activated.
– Deactivate start/stop system: switch off the ignition.
