Consumer Information - Honda GS160 Owner's Manual

Air Index
An Air Index Information label is applied to engines certified to an
emission durability time period in accordance with the requirements of
the California Air Resources Board.
The bar graph is intended to provide you, our customer, the ability to
compare the emissions performance of available engines. The lower
the Air Index, the less pollution.
The durability description is intended to provide you with information
relating the engine's emission durability period. The descriptive term
indicates the useful life period for the engine's emission control
system. See your EMISSION CONTROL SYSTEM WARRANTY
(page 15) for additional information.
