PROTECTING THE ENVIRONMENT

The devices for reducing petrol engine emissions are the following:
catalytic converter, lambda sensors and anti-evaporation system.
The following devices are used for reducing diesel fuel engine emis-
sions: oxidising catalytic converter, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR)
and particulate filter (DPF).
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER (DPF)
(for versions/markets, where provided)
This is a mechanical filter, fitted in the exhaust system, which al-
most completely eliminates carbon particle emissions.
The catalytic converter and particulate filter (DPF)
reach very high temperatures during operation.
Do not park the vehicle on grass, dry leaves, pine
needles or other flammable material: fire hazard.
