Environmental Protection Precautions
NLGI0001S0702
Burning used engine oil in small space heaters or boilers can be
recommended only for units of approved design. The heating sys-
tem must meet the requirements of HM Inspectorate of Pollution for
small burners of less than 0.4 MW. If in doubt, check with the
appropriate local authority and/or manufacturer of the approved
appliance.
Dispose of used oil and used oil filters through authorized waste
disposal contractors to licensed waste disposal sites, or to the
waste oil reclamation trade. If in doubt, contact the local authority
for advice on disposal facilities.
It is illegal to pour used oil on to the ground, down sewers or drains,
or into water courses.
The regulations concerning the pollution vary between
regions.
PRECAUTIONS FOR FUEL
NLGI0001S08
Gasoline Engine
NLGI0001S0804
Models with three way catalyst
Unleaded premium gasoline of at least 95 octane (RON)
If premium gasoline is not available, unleaded regular gaso-
line with an octane rating of 91 (RON) may be temporarily
used, but only under the following precautions:
I
Have the fuel tank filled only partially with unleaded regu-
lar gasoline, and fill up with premium unleaded gasoline
as soon as possible.
I
Avoid full throttle driving and abrupt acceleration.
CAUTION:
Do not use leaded gasoline. Using leaded gasoline will dam-
age the three way catalyst.
Diesel Engine*:
NLGI0001S0805
Diesel fuel of at least 50 cetane
*
If two types of diesel fuel are available, use summer or winter
fuel properly according to the following temperature conditions.
I
Above −7°C (20°F) ... Summer type diesel fuel.
I
Below −7°C (20°F) ... Winter type diesel fuel.
CAUTION:
I
Do not use home heating oil, gasoline, or other alternate
fuels in your diesel engine. The use of those can cause
engine damage.
I
Do not use summer fuel at temperatures below −7°C
(20°F). The cold temperatures will cause wax to form in the
fuel. As a result, it may prevent the engine from running
smoothly.
I
Do not add gasoline or other alternate fuels to diesel fuel.
PRECAUTIONS FOR AIR CONDITIONING
NLGI0001S09
Use an approved refrigerant recovery unit any time the air condi-
