Precautions: General safety (00)

As this vehicle is equipped with a catalytic converter, use only unleaded gasoline and be careful not to let a large amount of unburned gasoline enter the converter, or it can be damaged.
•Conduct a spark jump test only when necessary to the shortest possible time without opening the throttle.
•Conduct engine compression checks within the shortest possible time.
•Avoid any situations which can result in engine misfire (e.g. starting the engine when the fuel tank is nearly empty.)
