Fuel Tank Functions
A pressure relief valve (B) is integrated in the fuel filler cap (A) to protect the fuel tank (E) from excess pressure. A non-return flap (C) is located at the end of the fuel filler neck.
The non-return flap prevents the fuel from sloshing back into the fuel filler neck. The components in the fuel tank can be reached via the two service caps (F). The fuel fill level can be determined via the two lever-type sensors (G). The surge chamber (D) ensures that the fuel pump always has enough fuel available for delivery.
