Fuel Tank and Lines (10.01)
Fuel (10.00)
May 2007 Workshop Manual 10-1-7
Normal Fuel Fill - Air displaced from the fuel tank during
filling can only exit via the fuel level vent valve and roll over
valves and be forced through the carbon canister. Any fuel
vapour in the displaced air is absorbed in the carbon filter
material. No fuel vapour can escape to the atmosphere.
Clean air then exits the carbon canister, via and additional
filter, to atmosphere.
Excessive Fuel Fill - In the event of overfilling of the fuel
tank, the fuel level vent valve will close at normal maximum
fuel level. Finally the roll over vent valve will close,
completely sealing the tank. Any excess pressure in the fuel
tank will ‘blow off’ via the Ov er-pressure vent valve (part of
the roll over vent valves) in the Fuel Level vent valve
assembly.
Safety Precautions
Operations on fuel system resu lt in fuel liquid and vapour
being present in the working environment. This presents a
very serious risk and the following precautions must be
strictly observed:
Specifications
Warning
Operations on refuelling and the fuel system must only
be performed by personnel who have completed training on fuel handling.
Warning
Smoking must not be allowed near the working area. “NO SMOKING” signs must be posted around the
working area.
Warning
Any operation which could involve sparks or naked lights (e.g. battery testing, welding, metal grinding,
etc.) must not be allowed near the working area.
Warning
A CO2 fire extinguisher must be available close at hand.

Warning
Dry sand must be available close at hand to soak up any accidental fuel spillage.
Warning
If necessary, empty the fuel into an explosion proof container using suitable fireproof fuel handling
equipment.
Warning
The working area must be well ventilated.
Warning
Disconnect the battery before commencing work on the fuel system.
Warning
Depressurise the fuel system before disconnecting any fuel lines.

Leaks
Faults associated with low refrigerant charge weight and low pressure may be caused by leakage. Leaks traced to
mechanical connections may be caused by torque relaxation or joint face contamination. Evidence of oil around such
areas is an indicator of leakage.
Leak Detection
Fluorescent Tracer Dye - A fluorescent tracer dye is incorporated into th e refrigeration system and can be checked for
non-apparent leaks by scanning with a high intensity ultraviolet lamp. The location of leaks can be pinpointed by the bright
yellow glow of the tracer dye.
Automatic Refrigerant Leak Detector - (various manufacturers) Hand-held, portable, battery operated leak detector.
Place in and around A/C system to detect refrigerant leaks.
System Pressure Fault Classification
This table should be used in conjunction with the graphical representations of 'High side' pressure / ambient temperature
and 'Low side' pressure / evaporator temperature. Caution
Observe ALL safety precautions associ ated with ultraviolet equipment.
If erratic or unusual gauge movements occur, check the equipment against known Recovery / Recycling / Recharging unit
gauges.

Description
The Driver Information module contains the necessary electronic control units and memories to control, process and
present all necessary vehicle information to the driver.
1. Information on vehicle performance is presented in visible form using the instruments and gauges. These
devices present such information as Vehicle Speed,
Engine Speed, Fuel Level and Coolant Temperature.
2. Information on vehicle status is presented by an array of warning lights.
• Red - indicate immediate danger warnings
• Amber - indicate conditions which are serious but not immediately dangerous
• Green and Blue - indicate normal actuation of items such as turn signals or fog lamps
The message centres and the shift position Sensor
display are used to present information on the distance
recorders (trip meters), current gear mode and current
gear engaged.
3. The right message centre is used to display any warning/ information message text. These text messages may be
reinforced in some cases by illumination of the
appropriate warning lamps.
The following table defines all information and warning
lamps and their significance:

Battery System (14.01)
Power Supply (14.00)14-1-2 Workshop Manual May 2007
Power Supply (14.00)
Battery System (14.01)
Description
The 12 volt negative earth (‘-’ ve) battery is located under the RH side rear seat and is grounded to the vehicle body.
The battery positive (‘+’ ve) terminal is connected to a battery connect switch. The connect switch may be accessed by
raising the rear seat cushion.
Battery Connect Switch
When the battery connect switch is in an ‘open’ state it
isolates electrical power from all systems except the ‘keep
alive memory’ functions in the PCMs, TCU, radio,
navigation system and door modules.
This function isolates electri cal power from vehicle circuits
under all normal service conditions with the following
exceptions:
• Before any welding or other work which may induce high voltages into the electronic control modules
• Before disconnecting any of the control modules with ‘keep alive memory ’
• Before any major service task (e.g . engine removal)
• Before installing any accessory which involves modification of vehicle wiring
In the above four exceptions the battery earth (‘-’ ve) lead
should be disconnected.
When the battery earth (‘-’ ve) terminal is disconnected,
data held in keep alive memories will be lost. After connecting the battery, the radio preset stations and the
door window controllers will require to be reset (adaptive
learning data in the PCM module will require to be re-
learned by driving the vehicle for some miles in a range of
driving conditions),
driveability may be slightly
compromised until the vehicle systems have completed
their adaptive learning routines again.
Battery Disconnection and Alarm
Activation
The vehicle is installed with an alarm which will be activated
if the battery is disconnected. This alarm is driven by a back
up battery within the alarm sounder unit.
To prevent the alarm from so unding when the battery is
disconnected (for workshop procedures), disconnect the
battery within 10 seconds of switching off the ignition.
Always carry out the following procedures upon connection
of the battery.
• Reset the clock
• Reset the radio preset programmes.
• Reset the window maximum up and maximum down settings.
