Switch from petrol to LPG
When running on petrol: press button A
- Fig 7, the switch to LPG will take place
automatically at the first significant accel-
eration.
During switching:
– the LPG gauge Bcomes on;
– the yellow OFFLED goes out (petrol
operating mode);
– the green ONLED comes on, switch-
ing from intermittent to on constantly
(LPG operating mode);
There are 5 LEDs B(1 red and 4 green)
on the left of the switch that display the
amount of LPG in the tank.
When the amount of LPG remaining falls
below about 1/5 of the capacity of the
tank, only the red (reserve) LED remains
on, signalling the need to refuel.
