Secondary Air Pump (SLP)
The electrically-operated secondary air pump is mounted to the vehicle body. The pump
draws out filtered fresh air from the air cleaner housing during the warm-up phase and sup-
plies it to the two secondary air Non-return Valves.
Once the engine has been started, the secondary air pump is supplied with voltage by the
ECM via the secondary air pump relay. It remains switched on until the engine has taken in
a certain amount of air.

period may be a maximum of 90 seconds and it depends on the following engine
operating conditions:
• Coolant temperature (from -10 ºC to approximately 60 ºC)
• Air temperature (NTC sensor in HFM)
• Engine speed
One non-return valve is mounted on each cylinder head (see also Engine Views).
The non-return valves are opened by the pressure generated from the secondary air pump.
The secondary air is led through a pipe to the secondary air ducts (integral in the cylinder
heads) for distribution into the exhaust ports.
The non-return valves are sprung closed when the secondary air pump is deactivated. This
prevents exhaust vapors, pressure and condensation from flowing back into the secondary
air pump.
