Evaporative Emissions Control System
Certain Markets Only
Some models in certain markets are fitted with a system to control the evaporation of fuel vapour to the atmosphere.
A carbon filled canister absorbs vapour while the engine is not running. When the engine is started, the vapour is returned to the engine and burnt.
There are two distinct phases to the system's operation: engine off and engine running. These two conditions are explained overleaf.
