The catalytic converter itself gets hot quickly, and
may be damaged if overheated. The following
points should be noted in order to prevent the igni-
tion of unburned petrol within the catalytic convert-
er.
l
Use UNLEADED PETROL ONLY of the
type recommended in "Fuel selection" on
page 02.
l
Do not drive with an extremely low fuel lev-
el; running out of fuel could cause damage to
the catalytic converter.
l
Do not attempt to start the engine by pushing
the vehicle. If the battery is weak or dis-
charged, use another battery to start the en-
gine.
l
Do not idle the engine with any spark plug
wires disconnected or removed such as per-
forming diagnostic tests.
l
Do not idle the engine for prolonged periods
during very rough idle or malfunctioning op-
erating conditions.
l
Do not race the engine when turning off the
ignition switch. This will cause the catalytic
converter to be damaged due to contact with
unburnt fuel.
l
Stop driving the vehicle if you think the per-
formance is noticeably low, or if the engine
has a malfunction such as with the ignition,
etc.
If it is impractical to stop driving immediate-
ly, reduce the speed and drive for only a
short time. We recommend you to have your
vehicle inspected as soon as possible.
l
In unusual situations involving grossly mal-
functioning engine operation, a burnt smell
may indicate severe and abnormal catalyst
overheating.
If this occurs, the vehicle should be stopped
in a safe place, the engine switched off and
the vehicle allowed to cool. Once the engine
is cool, a service, including a tune-up to man-
ufacturer's specifications, should be obtained
immediately.
