- Fig. 109 Instrument cluster: Gas fuel gauge
The gauge
fig. 109► only works when the ignition is switched on. When the gauge reaches the reserve zone, a red LED will light up. The red LED will flash if the natural gas level is very low.
When the gas fuel level is down to the reserve zone, the message Please add CNG will appear in the instrument cluster.
When both types of fuel (natural gas and petrol) are down to the reserve zone, a combined display will appear in the instrument cluster with the message Please refuel and the indicator lamp

The fuel range will also be displayed.
The tank capacities on your vehicle are given in the Technical data section link►.
CAUTION
Never run the petrol tank completely dry.
- Refuel with petrol if a driver message appears on the instrument cluster display instructing you to do so; otherwise there is a risk of engine damage.
- If there is an irregular fuel supply, misfiring can occur. Unburnt fuel can then enter the exhaust system. This can lead to overheating and damage to the catalytic converter.
Note
If the vehicle is refuelled and parked immediately afterwards for a long period, the fuel level shown on the gas fuel gauge may be different when you restart the vehicle than it was immediately after refuelling. This does not mean that there is a fuel leak, but is a side-effect caused by a drop in pressure in the gas fuel tanks when the system cools down after refuelling.
