ENVIRONMENTAL RESPONSIBILITY
Scania has always been very much at the leading edge when it comes to
developing and producing engines which are as environmentally friendly as
possible.
Major progress has been made on reducing harmful exhaust emissions as
required to be able to meet the stringent environmental standards stipulated
on almost all markets.
At the same time, we have been able to maintain high quality in terms of
performance and operating economy for Scania Industrial and Marine
Engines.
To preserve these qualities throughout the entire service life of the engine, it
is important for the operator/owner to follow the instructions on running,
maintenance and the choice of fuel and oil as outlined in the manual.
Other efforts to preserve the environment we all share are possible by
ensuring that the person carrying out servicing and maintenance always
makes sure that environmentally hazardous waste after servicing and repairs
(oil, fuel, coolant, filters, batteries, etc.) is dealt with and disposed of in
accordance with applicable environmental standards.
On a number of pages, this Operator's Manual contains specially highlighted
text with instructions to help protecting our environment during certain
servicing and maintenance work.
See example
Use a container to avoid spillage
when bleeding and changing
components.
