OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
76MH1-74E
How the ABS works
A computer continuously monitors wheel
speed. The computer compares the
changes in wheel speed when braking. If
the wheels slow suddenly, indicating a
skidding situation, the computer will
change braking pressure several times
each second to prevent the wheels from
locking. When you start your vehicle or
when you accelerate after a hard stop, you
may hear a momentary motor or clicking
noise as the system resets or checks itself.
“This is absolutely normal and indicate that
ABS is functioning properly”.
RUNNING-IN CATALYTIC CONVERTER
06-76A044A
The purpose of the catalytic converter is
minimize the amount of harmful pollutants
in your vehicle exhaust. Use of leaded fuel
in vehicles equipped with catalytic convert-
ers is prohibited, because lead deactivates
the pollutant reducing components of the
catalyst system.
The converter is designed to last the life of
the vehicle under normal usage and when
unleaded fuel is used. No special mainte-
nance is required on the converter. How-
ever, it is very important to keep the engine
properly tuned. Engine misfiring, which can
result from an improperly tuned engine,
may cause overheating of the catalyst.
This may result in permanent heat damage
to the catalyst and other vehicle compo-
nents.
WARNING
The ABS may not work properly if
tires or wheels other than those
specified in the owner’s manual are
used. This is because the ABS works
by comparing changes in wheel
speed. When replacing tires or
wheels, use only the size and type
specified in this owner’s manual.
CAUTION
The future performance and reliabil-
ity of the engine depends on the care
and restraint exercised during its
early life. It is especially important to
observe the following precautions
during the initial 1000 kms of vehicle
operation.
• After starting, do not race the
engine. Warm it up gradually.
• Avoid prolonged vehicle operation
at a constant speed. Moving parts
will break in better if you vary your
speed. Start off from a stop slowly.
Avoid full throttle starts.
• If possible, avoid hard braking,
especially during the first 320 kms
of driving.
• Do not drive slowly with the trans-
mission in a high gear.
• Drive the vehicle at moderate
engine speeds.
