Important Precautions - Bajaj Auto Chetak Owner's Manual & Service Records

Important Precautions

The following precautions must be observed if your vehicle is fit with a catalytic converter. If you are
unsure whether your scooter has a catalytic converter or not, check with your dealer. The catalytic
converter, which is installed inside the silencer, reduces the exhaust emissions and is required in some
states.
Caution:
1. Never operate your scooter with leaded gasoline. Even a small amount of normal leaded gasoline will
damage the catalyst and make the catalytic converter completely ineffective.
2. Never tamper with the catalytic converter, which is installed inside the silencer assembly.
3. Never turn off the engine when the scooter is in motion. Likewise, never try to start your scooter by
pushing it, towing it, or coasting it down a hill. Failure to observe this precaution will damage the
catalytic converter, and can lead to a serious over temperature event, or even a fire, with subsequent
serious injury to you and serious damage to your scooter.
4. If the engine misfires or appears to have any loss of performance, immediately take your scooter to
your local Bajaj Dealer.
