Italian term or phrase: comunque attesa
"Se durante il rifornimento si riscontrasse che il quantitativo di gas caricato risultasse inferiore alla quantità prevista o comunque attesa, verificare il corretto funzionamento delle elettrovalvole su ciascuna bombola."

Hi,
Indeed I am Italian-Turkish and English-Turkish translator; however I cannot translate this "comunque attesa" in the sentence above from Italian into Turkish, because I cannot comprehend the message thoroughly. Can you help me with its English translation, it would be easier for me to get the correct message and transfer it into Turkish.

Thanks a lot in advance.

Explanation:
That's what it means in this context. With LPG or methane, and I believe that's what is being referred to here, one doesn't always have a clear idea of how much the tank will hold, but a fair estimate can be made based on time or distance travelled. I know because my auto is LPG equipped and I reset my trip odometer when I fill up so I know basically what is in the tank regardless of what the warning lamps indicate, as they are not always very reliable.
