IMPORTANT!
Maintenance, replacement or repair of
emission control devices and systems
may be performed by any repair estab-
lishment or individual; however, warranty
repairs must be performed by a dealer or
service center authorized by Shindaiwa
Corporation. The use of parts that are not
equivalent in performance and durability to
authorized parts may impair the effective-
ness of the emission control system and
may have a bearing on the outcome of a
warranty claim.
