1) Standard pattern of soot accumulation
Abnormal Soot Accumulation ▶
Normal Soot Combustion ▶
Cautions to protect the catalyst filter ▶
Use the designated fuel only.
Observe the recommended service intervals of engine oil.
Check the engine oil level frequently and add if necessary.
Do not idle the vehicle unnecessarily.
Do not turn off the engine while the vehicle is running.
Do not shift the gear selector lever to neutral when going downhill.
Do not use improper engine oil or fuel additives.
Do not drive for a long time when the warning lamp is illuminated.
Make sure no flammable material, such as dry grass or tissue paper, contacts with the catalyst filter
while the vehicle is parked.
For the vehicles used in urban traffic, driving on the expressways for more than 1 hour at least once
per week is needed so that the PM inside CDPF isn't collected to one side only. -

1. FUEL SYSTEM SPECIFICATION
Use Only Unleaded Fuel Rated at 89 Octane or Higher ▶
Fuel quality and additives contained in fuel have a significant effect on power output, drivability, and
life of the engine.
Fuel with too low an octane number can cause engine knock.
Caution: Use of fuel with an octane number lower than 89 may damage engine and exhaust
system.
To prevent accidental use of leaded fuel, the nozzles for leaded fuel are larger, and will not fit the
fuel filler neck of your vehicle. -
Do Not Use Methanol ▶
Fuels containing methanol (wood alcohol) should not be used in vehicle.
This type of fuel can reduce vehicle performance and damage components of the fuel system.
Use of methanol may damage the fuel system. -
Vehicle Fueling from Drums or Storage Containers ▶
For safety reasons (particularly when using noncommercial fueling systems) fuel containers, pumps
and hoses must be properly earthed.
Static electricity build up can occur under certain atmospheric and fuel flow conditions if unearthed
hoses, particularly plastic, are fitted to the fuel-dispensing pump.
It is therefore recommended that earthed pumps with integrally earthed hoses be used, and that
storage containers be properly earthed during all noncommercial fueling operations.
