This model is equipped with a catalytic
converter in the exhaust system.
WARNING
EWA10863
The exhaust system is hot after op-
eration. To prevent a fire hazard or
burns:
zDo not park the vehicle near
possible fire hazards such as
grass or other materials that
easily burn.
zPark the vehicle in a place
where pedestrians or children
are not likely to touch the hot
exhaust system.
zMake sure that the exhaust sys-
tem has cooled down before
doing any maintenance work.
zDo not allow the engine to idle
more than a few minutes. Long
idling can cause a build-up of
heat.
NOTICE
