FUEL CUT-OFF SWITCH
ALWAYS check for fuel leaks before resetting the fuel cut-off
switch.
In the event of a collision or sudden impact, an inertia switch
automatically cuts off the fuel supply to the engine and, providing
the alarm is disarmed, unlocks the doors.
When the switch operates, the interior lights illuminate until the
system is reset by pressing the rubber top of the cut-off switch
(arrowed in illustration). In addition, the hazard warning lights
flash until switched off.
The inertia switch is located behind the glovebox and can be
reached from underneath by removing the four fixings securing
the access cover.
The switch must be reset before the engine can be started.
