WARNING:
Dismantling the fuel reservoir (incl. fuel level sensor) involves work on the car's fuel system. The following points must therefore be observed in conjunction with these measures:
- Ensure good ventilation! If there is approved ventilation for extraction of fuel fumes then this must be used.
- Wear protective gloves! Prolonged exposure of the hands to fuel can cause irritation of the skin.
- Have a fire extinguisher suitable for flammable liquids and electrical equipment at hand! Be aware of the risk for sparks, i.e. in connection with circuit breaking, short-circuiting, etc.
- Absolutely No Smoking!
- Wear protective glasses.
