Temperature fluctuations during the filling process (-20° to +40°) may damage the paint on the compressed natural gas (CNG) cylinders, resulting in corrosion. In extreme cases, this may cause natural gas to leak from the CNG cylinders. There is a risk that the vehicle could catch fire once the engine has been switched off.
