Safety precautions when working on the fuel supply system
   
t  For reasons of safety, remove fuse No. 41 from fuse holder before opening the fuel system as the fuel pump can be activated by the driver's door contact switch.
  WARNING
Fuel supply pipes are under pressure Before removing fuel hose connections, wrap a cloth around the connection. Then release pressure by carefully removing the hose.
When removing or installing the fuel level sender or fuel pump (fuel delivery unit) from a full or partly full fuel tank the following must be observed:
t  Before commencing work, switch the exhaust extraction system on and place an extraction hose close to the sender opening in the fuel tank to extract escaping fuel fumes.
If no exhaust extraction system is available, a radial fan (as long as motor is not in air flow) with a displacement greater than 15 m3/h can be used.
t  Avoid skin contact with fuel, wear fuel-resistant gloves!
