And therefore, follow the instructions described below: 1. Using the diagnostic tester or OBD II general
scanning device.
2. Note regarding failure codes: to read or clear the 4 digit failure codes (e.g. P0105) assigned according
to the ISO standards, always use a tester or the device described in point 1. Also use the tester or the

INSTRUCTIONS TO USE THE VEHICLE EQUIPPED WITH CATALYTIC CONVERTER
RECOMMENDATIONS: 1. If there is a great quantity of unburned gases in the catalytic converter,
an overheating can be detected with the consequent fire hazard. To prevent this type of incon-
venient strictly follow the instructions and inform the customer properly.

3. Avoid running the engine at idle speed for a long time. Do not run the engine at idle speed for
a more than 20 minutes.
4. Check and repair the vehicle immediately if the idle speed or idle is unstable or if failures are
detected in the system, failure to observe this safety measure can cause fire hazard.
