6

îHealthy 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 &
fuel efficiency.
îFuel 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.
îGenuine Spares: Always insist on Hero MotoCorp genuine parts as spurious or
incompatible spares and accessories can upset or deteriorate your motorcycle’s running

îGenuine engine oil: Hero 4T Plus SAE 10W 30 SL grade (JASO MA2) engine oil

top up every 3000 kilometres) to keep the engine fit and environment healthy.
