Important Precautions - Lambretta Uno50 Owner's Manual

IMPORTANT PRECAUTIONS

The following precautions must be observed if your vehicle is equipped 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 muffler, reduces the exhaust emissions and
is required in some countries.
CAUTION
1. Use only unleaded gasoline. Even a small amount of normal leaded gasoline will damage
the catalyst and make the catalytic converter completely ineffective.
2. Never turn off the engine when the scooter is in motion. Also, never try to start your scooter
by pushing it, towing it, or coasting it down a hill. Failure to observe these precautions will
damage the catalytic converter, and can lead to serious overheating, or even a fire, which
could cause serious injury to you and serious damage to your scooter.
3. If the engine misfires or appears to have any loss of performance, immediately take your
scooter to your authorized Lambretta Dealer.
4. Make sure flammable materials such as dry grass or leaves do not come in contact with the
exhaust system of your scooter.
