emission control system (the catalytic
converter is part of this system) that
enables the vehicle to comply with
existing exhaust emissions
requirements.
WARNING
Never park over or near anything
flammable:
Parking over or near anything
flammable, such as dry grass, is
dangerous. Even with the engine
turned off, the exhaust system remains
very hot after normal use and could
ignite anything
flammable. A resulting
fire could cause serious injury or death.
CAUTION
Ignoring the following precautions
could cause lead to accumulate on the
catalyst inside the converter or cause
the converter to get very hot. Either
condition will dama ge the converter
and cause poor performance.

adjustments must be made by a
qualified technician.
 Do not push-start or pull-start this
vehicle.
NOTE
Under U.S. federal law, any
modification to the
original-equipment emission control
system before the first sale and
registration of a vehicle is subject to
penalties. In some states, such modification made on a used vehicle
is also subject to penalties.
