Safety Precautions


WARNING!
Fuel system is under pressure! Before opening system, place rags around the connection point. Then release pressure by carefully loosening connection.


To reduce the risk of personal injury and/or damage to the fuel injection and ignition system, always observe the following:
- For safety reasons, fuse 14 must be removed from the fuse holder before opening the fuel system since the Fuel Pump (FP) is activated via the door contact switch of the driver's door.
- Do not touch or disconnect ignition wires when engine is running or turning at starting RPM.
- Only disconnect and reconnect wires for injection and ignition system, including test leads, when ignition is turned off.

If special testing equipment is required during road test, note the following:
- Test equipment must always be secured to the rear seat and operated from there by a second person.

If test and measuring equipment is operated from the passenger seat, the person seated there could be injured in the event of an accident involving deployment of the passenger-side airbag.
- If engine is to be cranked at starting RPM without starting:







- Disconnect the 6-pin connector from the power output stages for ignition coils (arrow).







- Remove fuse 32


NOTE: By removing fuse 32, voltage supply to the fuel injectors is interrupted.
