Several warning and indicator lamps will light up briefly as a functional check when the ignition is switched on. They will switch off after a few seconds.
Autogas engines
The yellow indicator lamp
lights up when all the fuel except
for the reserve fuel has been used up.
The green indicator lamp
lights up when the vehicle is in autogas mode.
The green indicator lamp
goes out if the vehicle is changed over to petrol mode automatically or manually.
Things to note: if the vehicle is parked for an extended period directly after refuelling, it is possible that the needle on the autogas gauge will not display exactly the same fuel level shown directly after refuelling when the vehicle is restarted. This does not necessarily indicate a leak in the system.
