The tank must be disconnected only after draining all the LPG and having the tank inertised. To this purpose, placing the switch in LPG mode, make sure that the system automatically switches to petrol operation mode.
If the car cannot be run in LPG mode, before disconnecting the tank, drain all the LPG from the tank itself and inertise the tank complying with the prescriptions of the standard CUNA NC 120-01. Comply with the specific national regulations of the country where the car is sold.
For the Italian market, this intervention can only be carried out by personnel authorised to work on LPG systems, after participating in CEPAS training and getting the participation certificate.
If the necessary authorisation is not available, contact certified CEPAS workshops to have the tank drained and inertised. The tank can be removed from the vehicle only after this operation.
