The catalytic converter is installed in the exhaust sys-
tem. It serves as catalyst to reduce HC, CO and NOx
in exhaust gases, thus providing cleaner exhaust.
To avoid damage to the catalytic converter:
"
Use only unleaded gasoline. Even a small amount
of leaded gasoline will damage the catalytic converter.
"
Never start the engine by pushing or pulling the ve-
hicle.
"
Avoid racing the engine.
" Never turn off the ignition switch while the vehicle is
moving.
