CATALYTIC CONVERTER
The catalytic converter reduces the
amount of harmful substances in the
exhaust gas.
Caution
Fuel grades other than those listed on
page 114 could damage the catalytic
converter or electronic components.
Unburnt fuel will overheat and damage
the catalytic converter. Therefore avoid
excessive use of the starter, running the
fuel tank dry and starting the engine by
pushing or towing.
In the event of misfiring, uneven engine
running, a reduction in engine perfor-
mance
or other unusual problems, have
the cause of the fault rectified by a
CHEVROLET retailer as soon as possi-
ble. In an emergency, driving can be
continued for a short period, keeping
vehicle speed and engine speed low.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
The automatic transmission permits
manual gear shifting (manual mode) or
automatic gear shifting (automatic
mode).
TRANSMISSION DISPLAY
The mode or selected gear is shown in
the transmission display.
ENGINE EXHAUST
Danger
Engine exhaust gases contain poison-
ous carbon monoxide, which is colour-
less and odourless and could be fatal if
inhaled.
If exhaust gases enter the interior of
the vehicle, open the windows. Have
the cause of the fault rectified by a
CHEVROLET retailer.
Avoid driving with an open load com-
partment, otherwise exhaust gases
could enter the vehicle.
