TIPS FOR HEALTHY ENVIRONMENT
The following tips shall ensure a healthy vehicle, healthy environment, and a healthy you.
• Healthy engine: The engine is the lifeline of every vehicle. To keep it healthy, it should be
tuned regularly, which will also help reduce pollution and improve vehicle performance.
• Regular servicing: Get your vehicle serviced at an Authorised service station, as per the
service schedule, for an optimum performance and keep the emission level under check.
• Genuine spares: Always insist on Hero MotoCorp genuine parts as spurious or
incompatible spares and accessories can upset or deteriorate your vehicle’s running
condition.
• Genuine engine oil: Hero 4T Plus SAE 10W 30 SL grade (JASO MB) engine oil
recommended by Hero MotoCorp and make sure you change it every 6000 km (with top
up every 3000 kilometres) to keep the engine fit and environment healthy.
• Noise pollution: Noise beyond a certain decibel is pollution. Whether it is from horns or
defective mufflers, excessive noise will cause headaches and discomfort.
• Fuel saving & reduce pollution: Switch "OFF" the engine while waiting at traffic signal
points to save fuel and reduce pollution, if the waiting period is long.
