Security measures and rules of observance of purity during the work with fuel system

During the work with fuel system it is necessary to observe carefully the following security measures and purity:

- Do not use naked flame near a workplace, do not smoke and do not hold any strongly warmed subjects. There is a danger of accident! Keep in readiness the fire extinguisher.
- Watch normal ventilation of a workplace. Fuel couples are poisonous.
- The fuel system is under pressure. When opening system fuel can escape under pressure. Collect fuel a rag. Use goggles.
- Carefully clear connections and the places adjoining to them before opening.
- Stack the removed details on a pure lining and close. Apply for this purpose polyethylene or paper. Do not apply for this purpose fibrous fabric!
- Carefully close open details or put technological caps if repair lasts some time.
- Take out spare parts from packing only just before installation. Do not apply details which were stored unpacked (for example, stored in a toolbox). Establish into place only pure details.
- At open fuel system do not apply whenever possible compressed air. Whenever possible do not move thus the car.
- Do not apply the sealants containing silicone. The silicone elements which got to the engine in the engine do not burn down and damage the oxygen sensor.
