Removal And Installation
The pipes for fuel and fuel vapour systems are fitted with quick couplings and O-rings.
To prevent any damage to the quick couplings during connection/disconnecting, proceed as below described without using tools.
- To disconnect the quick couplings 1, 2, 3, 4 press the retainers (a) shown in the illustration and move the terminals away from the pipes to be disconnected.
- To disconnect the quick coupling, type 5, lift the protection cage (a), press the retainers (b) and move the terminals away from the pipes to be disconnected.
- To disconnect the quick coupling, type 6, retract the retainer (a) and move the terminals away from the pipes to be disconnected.
NOTE:
Do not use solvents and/or materials that are not compatible with the pipes and quick couplings.
The connection of quick couplings is made by fitting to the end of travel (signalled by a coupling "click") the "male terminal" and then controlling, by opposite traction of the connector, without touching the retainers on the outer body. In the case of the quick connector type 5, after the engagement, press the protection cage (a) to restore the initial position.
