NOTICE
A large amount of unburned gases
flowing into the three−way catalytic
converter may cause it to overheat
and create a fire hazard. To prevent
this and other damage, observe the
following precautions:
z Use only CNG (Compressed Natural
Gas).
z Do not drive with an extremely low
fuel level; running out of fuel could
cause the engine to misfire, creat-
ing an excessive load on the three−
way catalytic converter.
z Do not allow the engine to run at
idle speed for more than 20 min-
utes.
z Avoid racing the engine.
z Do not push−start or pull−start your
vehicle.

the vehicle is moving.
