Catalytic converter, exhaust
emissions
Ca talytic conver ter for petrol engines
Leaded fuel will damage the catalytic
converter and parts of the elec tronic
system, thereby rendering them
inoperative.
On vehicles w ith a catalytic conv erter, the
fuel tank filler neck is of a narrow d esign so
that a d ispensing pump for leaded fuel
cannot be inserted.
Damage to the ca talytic converter or the
vehicle may result if the follow ing points
are not observed:
z If the engine misfires or runs roughly
after a cold start, the engine pow er has
red uc ed significantly or other unusual
opera ting problems occ ur that indicate a
fault in the ignition system, please
contact a work shop as quickly as
possible. Drive at a slower sp eed and
with less engine revs for a short time if
necessary.
z If unburned fuel enters the catalytic
converter, this m ay result in ov erheating
and irrepara ble dama ge to the catalytic
converter.
You should therefore avoid freq uent
coldstarts, unnecessarily long use of the
starter when setting off, running the ta nk
dry (an irregular fuel supply leads to
overheating) and sta rting the engine by
pushing or towing.
z If the control indicator Z for exhaust
emission flashes, lift your foot off the
accelerator until the indicator stops
flashing a nd is steadily illuminated.
Contact a workshop im med iately.
