The useful life of the catalyst in
stan dard working condition is 100,000
km.
In the case of engine performance
malfunction or reaching 100,000 km
mileage, the mentioned part should be
replaced in the authorized dealer ship
of SAIPA.
Periodical inspections of exhausted
gas should be done every 10,000 km.
If the amount of pollution exceeds the
standard value, replace the catalyst
in the authorized dealership of
SAIPA after making assurance about
performance of the other parts.
If you do not follow the precau -
tionary measures and the catalyst
damages, the vehicle guarantees

Catalyst Precautionary Mea-
sures
This vehicle is supplied with a cata -
lyst pollution control system of the
CCC type connected to the exhaust
manifold. Consider the following
precautionary measures:
- Only use lead free gasoline.
- Do not drive or park on the flam -
mable materials such as dry grass,
paper, dry leaf, and so on at all.
Because the catalyst is so hot and
there is possibility of fire.
- If you see any malfunction in the
engine performance such as the
engine vibration or engine power
reduction, stop driving the vehicle.
- Do not press the gas pedal for a
long time while the vehicle is not
moving.
- Do not change the engine parts
and pollution control system.
All the changes and settings must
be done by an authorized SAIPA
YADAK agent.
Pollution Control System
Environment and vehicle
Environment and vehicle
Catalyst
Most of the recent vehicles are
equipped with Three – Way Catalytic
Converter. The concept of three-way
is the three basic pollutions that are
produced by the engine, i.e., carbon
monoxide, oxides of nitrogen and
hydrocarbons, which are purged by
these converters. The converters
convert the pollution gases to carbon
dioxide, nitrogen and water, which
have less danger for the environment,
by means of special elements.
It should be noted that in addition to
the environment pollution, removing
or replacing the catalyst lately, causes
vehicle malfunction.
This vehicle is equipped with the
pollution control system via catalyst.
In order to maintain and assurance
of correct performance of the
mentioned part, the following items
should always be regarded.
