Refueling tool:
The fuel tank is served with a FIA approved fast coupling plug. The socket is the necessary connector-tool that has
to be used for refuelling the tank. This part is available on the Spare Parts Catalogue.
Refueling process:
1.
Prepare an external bottle with the measured quantity to refill. It is recommended using a ground
cable on the bottle to avoid static electrical discharges.
2.
Open the fuel tank cover, connect the refill hose with the coupling socket to the fuel tank plug (nº 1
on the picture) and the fuel will flow inside.
