This scooter is equipped with a catalytic converter. The catalytic converter
contains precious metals which act as catalysts. They promote the chemical
reactions that convert the exhaust gases without being affected by these reactions.
The catalytic converter acts on HC, CO and NO gases.
The catalytic converter must operate at high temperature for the chemical
reactions to occur. It is capable of igniting any combustible material it comes in
contact with. The scooter should be parked away from tall grass, dead leaves and
other flammable materials.
A faulty catalytic converter contributes to air pollution and can deteriorate the
performance of your engine. The following guidelines must be followed to protect
your scooter’s catalytic converter.
● Always use unleaded gasoline. Even in minimal quantities, lead is likely to
contaminate catalytic metals and cause the converter to lose all its efficiency.
● Make sure the engine is well maintained.
● If the engine misfires, backfires, stalls or generally does not run smoothly, take
the scooter to an authorized dealer for diagnosis and necessary repairs.
