be expected during petrol operation.
You must therefore adapt your driving style, e.g. during overtaking
manoeuvres and high vehicle loads
(e.g. towing loads) accordingly.
The vehicle consumes petrol when
starting the engine and even when in certain natural gas operating modes.The petrol consumption in natural gas
operating mode can vary depending
on driving behaviour (e.g. high load or towing). In case of a low fuel level, a
corresponding message is displayed as a reminder to refuel.
Notice
Always ensure that there is enough
petrol in the tank.
