Catalytic Converter
A catalytic converter is installed in the exhaust system to help clean
up the harmful exhaust gases that can cause air pollution.
To be effective, the converter must work at high temperature, so don't
park your car over dry grass, leaves or anything else that could burn
easily.
To stay effective, the converter must not be contaminated by leaded
gasoline; use only unleaded gas as explained on page
65 .
CAUTION: The converter can be overheated and damaged if it's fed
too much unburned fuel mixture from the engine, so:
— Don't push or tow the car to start it; if the battery is dead, jump start
the car as shown on page 126 .
— Don't turn the key off while the engine is running above idle speed.
— Don't change the ignition timing, or remove any emission control
parts.
— Use only the spark plugs specified in this manual.
— Don't keep driving your car if it isn't running properly, or if its CHARGE
warning light or check engine light comes on; have it checked by your
Honda dealer.
