LPG fuel system
Introduction
The Holden LP G fuel system has
been designed to comply with the
relevant Australian Standard.
It is recommended that you advise
your insurance company that your
new vehicle operates on LPG as
failure to do so may invalidate your
insurance policy.
Your vehicle is required to display
the LPG decal on both the front and
rear number plates.
When switching on the ignition, the
opening of the solenoid v alves at
the front and rear of the vehicle may
be heard. This is normal.
LPG warm-up mode
When starting the vehicle from cold,
LPG warm-up mode may activate.
During warm-up mode, reduced
engine power may be noticeable.
A m essage will display on the
instrument panel. See “LPG cold
start animations” under Fuel System
Messages on page 5‑18.Once
warm-up mode is complete, a
message is also displayed.
Cold conditions
.
Water vapour, visible as steam
from the exhaust, may be more
noticeable in cold conditions.
.
When the vehicle is switched off,
shortly after starting in cold
temperatures, a small quantity of
LPG may be released from the
vaporiser, located behind the
right front wheel. An odour may
be detected. This is normal and
does not indicate a leak unless it
persists.
Suspected gas leak
Carry out the emergency procedure.
See “LPG emergency procedures”
under Fuel on page 9‑ 23.
Vehicle storage
If the vehicle is to be stored for a
long time, rotate the outlet service
valve (B) to the closed position. See
“LPG emergency procedures” under
Fuel on page 9‑23.
