This catalytic converter contains noble metals
that serve as catalyst, promoting chemical
reactions to convert CO and HC in the
exhaust to CO and H O (water vapour).

A defective catalytic converter contributes to
air pollution and can impair your engine’s
performance.
Follow these guidelines to protect your
vehicle’s catalytic converter.
Ÿ Always use unleaded petrol. Even a small
amount of leaded petrol can contaminate
the catalyst metals, making the catalytic
converter ineffective.
Ÿ Keep the engine tuned up.
Evaporative emission control system
This vehicle is equipped with an evaporative
emission control system to meet emission
standards. During warm weather, the petrol
vapours which contain HC evaporates easily
into the atmosphere from the fuel tank, if the
fuel system is unsealed or open. The
evaporative emission control system is used to
prevent petrol vapours from escaping into the
atmosphere from fuel tank. The canister (1)
collects the fuel vapour from the fuel tank and
then the fuel vapour is drawn into the engine
for re-burning to avoid pollution caused by
the fuel vapour diffused into the air.

POLISHING OF VEHICLE
After washing your vehicle, wax all painted
surfaces (except matte painted surfaces) using
a commercially available polish/quality liquid
or paste wax to finish the job. Use only a non
abrasive polish or wax made specifically for
automobiles. Apply the polish or wax
according to the instructions on the container.
NOTE
Polishing or waxing is not applicable for
models having matte paint.
