Several warning and indicator lamps will light up briefly when the ignition is switched on while the vehicle runs functional checks. They will switch off after a few seconds.
When the indicator lamp or
lights up, the auxiliary heater and fuel-powered
supplementary heater switch off automatically.
Natural gas engines
The indicator lamp or
lights up, if both fuel types (petrol
and natural gas) have reached the reserve level.
The indicator lamp lights up if the vehicle is
running on natural gas.
The indicator lamp will go out once the natural
gas tank is empty. The engine switches to petrol mode.
Things to note: If the vehicle is parked for an extended period directly after refuelling, it may well occur that the pointer for the natural gas engine does not indicate the fuel level shown directly after refuelling. This does not mean that there is a leak in the system, but rather that for technical reasons the pressure has been decreased in the natural gas tank following a cooling phase directly after refilling.
