To avoid damage to the unleaded gasoline fuel injection system of
your Bi-fuel vehicle, operate your vehicle at least every 60 days
using unleaded gasoline. Use a minimum of one full tank of
unleaded fuel every 60 days.

gasoline operating mode under certain conditions in very cold
temperatures (below–7°C [20°F]).
If you expect to operate your LPG Bi-fuel vehicle in very cold
temperatures, be sure to maintain an adequate supply of
unleaded gasoline in the fuel tank.
