The use of leaded fuel in this vehicle will result in irreversible pollution of the catalyst element.Such pollution will prevent correct operation ofthe catalyst and give rise to increased operatingtemperatures leading to the catalyst elementmelting and restricting the exhaust flow alongwith an increase in exhaust emission levels. CAUTION: The vehicle warranty will not extend to dam-age arising from the use of incorrect fuels. Overseas Operation: When the vehicle is to be operated overseas, the vehicle operator should establish that a suitablefuel for satisfactory operation of the vehicle isavailable.
B020A01S-EAT RUNNING INThe longevity and performance of the vehicle are greatly affected by the care exercised during thefirst 1,000 miles of motoring. Because of modernmanufacturing techniques, rigid guidelines re-garding maximum road speeds have becomeunnecessary. However, certain precautionsshould be observed in order to obtain the bestpossible performance and useful life from thevehicle.
1) Do not race the engine without a load (i.e
revving the engine in neutral).
2) During the first 500 miles the maximum en- gine speed should be restricted to 3,000 rpmand gradually increased thereafter.
3) Avoid prolonged constant speed operation. The internal components of the engine willbecome more quickly run in if the operationspeed is varied during the running in period.
4) Never allow the engine to labour. Use the gearbox freely and avoid large throttle open-ings when the engine speed is below 1,500rpm.
5) Avoid rapid acceleration and maximum throttle openings.
6) Avoid harsh braking during the first 100 miles of urban motoring or 1,000 miles ofmotorway driving to allow the friction facingsof the brake pads and shoes to bed againstthe discs and drums properly.
7) No trailer towing should be undertaken dur- ing the running in period.
