OPERATING THE PRINS SILVERLINE-2.0 LPG SYSTEM
Starting
The engine always starts on petrol. Depending on the engine temperature and after the system check,
the SilverLine-2.0 system will automatically switch over to LPG.
The fuel selector switch
The fuel selector switch has two selection modes:
1.
Petrol mode:
System LED extinguished (Prins logo)
2.
LPG mode:
System LED illuminated (Prins logo)
The light intensity of the LPG fuel level indication LEDs varies, depending on the amount of daylight.
Switching from petrol to LPG and reverse
While driving, you can always switch between both fuels by pressing the fuel selector switch. After
pressing the fuel selector switch the switch over prodedure will be started.
Petrol>>LPG:
The Fuel status LED flashes. When the system has finished the switch over
prodedure the Fuel status LED will be illuminated constantly.
LPG>>Petrol:
The Fuel status LED will be extinguished when the system has switched over to
petrol.
LPG fuel level indication
An indication of the fuel level is shown by five LEDs. Depending on the tank sensor used the fuel level
indication will be displayed in 5 or 6 stages. If the red LED is illuminated (low level), the last litres of LPG
are being used. This means that the tank is not yet completely empty and that there are still some litres
of LPG remaining, depending on the size and shape of the LPG tank placed in your car. Because of the
measuring principle of the system measuring the fuel level, this measurement cannot be any more
accurate. It is only an indication of the fuel tank contents. Experience will show how much further you
can drive if the red LED is illuminated.
Empty tank situation
During a tank empty situation the Silverline-2.0 switches back to petrol automatically, the fuel status
LED flashes and the buzzer beeps 3 times. By pressing the fuel selector switch you confirm the system
switches back to petrol. The fuel status LED extinguishes and the red LED is illuminated (low level). As
soon as the LPG tank is filled up with LPG it is possible to switch over to LPG-mode again by pressing the
fuel selector switch.
