Air Quality Index (only for California certified models)
CARB requires that an air quality index label be attached to every certified engine showing the
engine emission information for the emission duration period. The label is provided for the user to
compare the emission performance of different engines. The lower the air index, the better the
engine emission performance. The description of durability is helpful for the user to learn the
engine emission duration period and the service life of emission control system. Refer to the
warranty section of this owner's manual for more information.
