Advice: antipollution, fuel economy and driving
By virtue of its design, moderate fuel
consumption and initial settings, your
vehicle conforms to current antipol-
lution regulations. The manufacturer
is actively striving to reduce pollutant
exhaust gas emissions and to save
energy. But the fuel consumption of
your vehicle and the level of pollutant
exhaust gas emissions are also your
responsibility. Ensure that it is main-
tained and used correctly.Maintenance
It should be noted that failure to respect
antipollution regulations may lead to
legal action being taken against the
vehicle owner. In addition, replacing
engine, fuel supply system and exhaust
components with parts other than those
originally recommended by the manu-
facturer may alter your vehicle so that
it no longer complies with antipollution
regulations.
Have your vehicle adjusted and
checked by an approved Dealer, in ac-
cordance with the instructions given in
your maintenance schedule: they will
have all the equipment necessary for
ensuring that your vehicle is maintained
to its original standard.

a ventilation pipe to expel
corrosive and explosive
gases), make sure that it is replaced
with a battery that enables this pipe
to be connected. Consult an ap-
proved Dealer.
