Recycling
Fuel escapes when fuel lines are detached. Have a suitable
collecting container ready.
Catch and dispose of escaping fuel.
Observe country-specific waste-disposal regulations.
Important!
Ensure adequate ventilation in the place of work!
Avoid skin contact (wear gloves)!
Connect the exhaust and extraction systems to the exhaust
tailpipe.
The electric fuel pump must not operate without fuel! After
completing repairs but before starting the engine for the first
time, fill the fuel tank with min. 5 l fuel through the fuel filler
pipe.
Do not damage non-return flap when pulling out extraction
hose.
Diesel vehicles:
Note:
Before starting the engine for the first time, if the tank has been
run dry or drawn off, fill with diesel fuel and turn on ignition for
approx. 1 minute. The fuel circuit is thus filled and vented, which
results in the engine firing more quickly.
