Fig. 12flash to indicate the reserve and
notify the need to refuel.

If the last fuel system in use
was petrol, when starting the
switch to methane shall be re-
quested manually by the customer.
Manual switching of the operat-
ing mode from petrol to meth -
ane and vice versa is only acti-
vated if the engine speed is below
2000 rpm.
At the time of the switching
request there will be a
metallic noise coming from the valves
to pressurise the circuit (more obvi-
ous with the ignition key in the MAR
position). As a result of the switching
logics described above, ithe delay be-
tween the ticking of the valve and the
display switching off on the instru-
ment panel is entirely normal.
IMPORTANT
The actual change to the chosen fuel sys-
tem takes place depending on the vehicle
usage conditions to guarantee switching in
absolute safety and will be confirmed by
the Kwarning light in the instrument pan-
el display coming on/going off.
