̈ Drain the fuel filter again if the / in-
dicator lamp remains lit.
If the fuel tank on a vehicle with diesel en-
gine has been run dry, there is a possibility
that the engine may not start immediately
after refueling because air may remain in
the fuel system.
After refueling:
̈ Switch on the ignition for approximate-
ly 10 seconds.
̈ Start the engine repeatedly for no more
than 60 seconds until it runs smoothly.
If the engine does not start:
̈ Wait approximately 2 minutes.
̈ Then start the engine repeatedly again
for no more than 60 seconds until it
runs smoothly.
If this attempt also fails, do not continue to
start the engine. Consult an authorized
Sprinter Dealer.
Environmental note
H
Have the drained liquid disposed of at an
authorized Sprinter Dealer.
! CAUTION
If the / indicator lamp remains lit
even after draining for the second time,
have the cause checked immediately at
an authorized Sprinter Dealer.
