fuel fill door release AUDI Q7 2014 Owner´s Manual

-Never get back into your vehicle while re­
fueling. If in exceptional circumstances
you must get back in your vehicle while refueling, make certain that you close
the door and touch metal to discharge
static electricity before touching the fill­
er nozzle again. Stat ic electricity can
cause sparks that can ignite fuel vapors
released during refueling .
- Never smoke or have an open flame any­
where in or near your vehicle when refu­
eling or filling a portable fuel container.
- For your safety, we strongly recommend
that you do not trave l w ith a portab le
fuel container in your vehicle. The con­
tainer, full or empty may leak and cou ld
cause a fire, especia lly in a crash .
-If, under exceptional circumstances, you
must transport a portable fuel container,
please observe the following:
- Never fill a portable fuel container
while it is anywhere in or on the vehicle
(for examp le, in the luggage compart­
ment, or on the trunk). Static electr ici­
ty can bui ld up while fi lling and can ig­
nite fuel vapors causing a fire.
- Always p lace a portable fuel container
on the ground before filling.
-Always keep the filler nozzle complete­
ly inside the portable container before
and during filling .
- If filling a portable container made of
metal, the filler nozz le must always be
in contact with the container. This will
he lp prevent static electricity from dis­
charging and cause a fire.
- Never spill fuel inside the vehicle or
luggage compartment. Fue l vapors are
h ighly flammable.
- Always observe local and state/provin­
cial laws regarding the use, storage
and transportation of fuel containers.
- Make certain the fuel container meets
industry standards (ANSI/ ASTM
F852 -86).
Fuel supply and filling your fuel tank 253
@ Note
If any fuel has spilled onto the car, it
shou ld be removed immediately to prevent
damage to the paint.
@ For the sake of the environment
As soon as the correct ly operated nozzle
switches off automat ically for the first
time, the tank is full. Do not try to add
more fuel because fuel may spill out. In
addition, the expansion space in the fuel
tank w ill be filled -causing the fuel to
overflow when it becomes warm and pol­
lute the environment.
0) Tips
-Running your eng ine while refuelling
may cause vapors to escape or even
cause fuel to sp ill out of the tank . Th is
would then shut off the fuel nozzle be­
fore the tank is ful l.
- Do not refuel your vehicle with the igni­
tion turned on. The fuel gauge may oth­
erwise not indicate the correct f uel level
after refuelling.
- Diesel vehicles* are equipped with a d ie­
sel misfueling protector . It allows the
vehicle to be fueled only with a diese l
fuel pump nozzle. A worn or damaged
nozzle or a nozzle that is too small may
not be able to open the diesel misfueling
protector. If this is the case, try turning
the nozzle before inserting it in the fuel
filler neck, use a different fuel pump or
see your authorized Aud i dea ler or au­
thorized repair facility for assistance. •
