Warning
-
• As this procedure involves handling fuel additives, be prepared for fuel additive spillage at all times and always observe fuel handling precautions. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
• Eye, hand ear protection and protective clothing are required to be worn during any general or removal and installation procedure of fuel additive system components. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
• In case of fuel additive fluid contact with the skin or the eyes, flush immediately with water for a minimum of 15 minutes and seek prompt medical attention. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
• If fuel additive fluid is swallowed, call a physician immediately. Rinse mouth immediately with water, do not induce vomiting. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury
• Always provide adequate ventilation when working on the fuel additive system or related components. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury
• Do not smoke or carry lighted tobacco or open flame of any type when working on or near any fuel related components. Highly flammable vapors are always present and may ignite. Failure to follow these instructions may result in personal injury.
-
Caution
-
• Make sure the workshop area in which the vehicle is being worked on is as clean and as dust free as possible. Foreign matter from work on clutches, brakes or from machining or welding operations can contaminate the fuel system and may result in later malfunction
• After completing the filling procedure, make sure the fuel additive refill kit and pipes are stored in a dry and secure area away from dust. Foreign matter from work on clutches, brakes or from machining or welding operations can contaminate the fuel additive fluid.
• Do NOT use the option “AFTER FUEL ADDITIVE SYSTEM REPAIR PROCEDURE (System Prime)” when refilling the fuel additive tank. This will cause an excessive amount of fuel additive to be forced into the fuel tank, since the fuel additive injection line is already full.
-
Note
-
1. Lift up vehicle.
2. Remove the fuel additive tank overflow pipe cap (quick release connector (type D)). (SeeQUICK RELEASE CONNECTOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION[MZ-CD 1.6 (Y6)].)
-
Note
-
• Securely connect the fuel additive filler kit overflow hose to the overflow bottle in the kit.
3. Connect the fuel additive filler kit overflow hose to the vehicle-side fuel additive tank overflow pipe.
4. Remove the fuel additive tank filler pipe cap (quick release connector (type D)). (SeeQUICK RELEASE CONNECTOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION[MZ-CD 1.6 (Y6)].)
-
Note
-
• Make sure the fuel additive filler kit fuel additive container is positioned below the fuel additive tank.
• Make sure the fuel additive container valve is closed.
5. Connect the filler hose of the container for fuel additive filling (hereinafter referred to as fuel additive container) to the fuel additive tank filler pipe.
6. Install the fuel additive filler kit overflow bottle to the underside of the vehicle using the hook and net.
-
Note
-
• When raising the fuel additive container, make sure that it is maintained in a horizontal position with the vehicle-side fuel additive tank.
7. Raise the fuel additive container above the fuel additive tank using a suitable stand.
-
Caution
-
• Do not allow air to enter the filler hose.
-
Note
-
• Fuel additive can be filled faster if the overflow bottle cap is loosened to release the pressure in the tank. However, if fuel additive escapes from the overflow hose, tighten the fuel additive container cap immediately to prevent fuel additive spill from the overflow bottle.
• If the fuel additive container is emptied during the filling procedure, close the filler hose valve, lower the fuel additive container and disconnect the filler hose. Connect the filler hose to the new fuel additive container and raise the fuel additive container, then open the filler hose valve.
8. Open the fuel additive container valve and fill the vehicle-side fuel additive tank with fuel additive until fuel additive escapes from the overflow hose connected to the fuel additive tank. Close the valve when fuel additive escapes from the fuel additive container filler hose.
9. Lower the fuel additive filler kit fuel additive container below the fuel additive tank.
10. Open the fuel additive filler kit filler hose valve to allow the fuel additive remaining in the hose return to the fuel additive container.
11. Close the fuel additive filler kit filler hose valve.
12. Disconnect the fuel additive filler kit filler hose from the fuel additive tank filler pipe.
13. Install the fuel additive tank filler pipe cap (quick release connector (type D)). (SeeQUICK RELEASE CONNECTOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION[MZ-CD 1.6 (Y6)].)
14. Disconnect the fuel additive filler kit overflow hose from the fuel additive tank overflow pipe.
15. Install the fuel additive tank overflow pipe cap (quick release connector (type D)). (SeeQUICK RELEASE CONNECTOR REMOVAL/INSTALLATION[MZ-CD 1.6 (Y6)].)
16. Lower the vehicle.
17. Connect the filler hose and the overflow hose using the fuel additive filler kit joint connector to allow the fuel additive spilled in the overflow bottle to return to the fuel additive container.
18. Perform the “AFTER FUEL ADDITIVE REFILL PROCEDURE”. (See AFTER FUEL ADDITIVE REFILL PROCEDURE[MZ-CD 1.6 (Y6)].)
-
Caution
-
• After completing the filling procedure, make sure the fuel additive tank filling kit is stored in a dry and secure area away from dust. Foreign matter from work on clutches, brakes or from machining or welding operations can contaminate the fuel additive fluid.
19. Perform the DTC inspection and verify that no DTCs are displayed.
