Principle and functionBecause of the over-enrichment of the mixture in the cold startphase, the percentage of unburned hydrocarbons in theexhaust gas is higher. The injection of secondary air improvesthe post-oxidation in the catalytic converter and thus reducespollutant emissions. The heat produced by the post-oxidationconsiderably shortens the start-up time of the catalyticconverter and significantly enhances the emission quality inthe cold-running phase.
In the cold-running phase the engine control unit -J623--Item 4- activates the secondary air pumpmotor -V101--Item 2- via the secondary air pump relay -J299--Item 3-. Air will then reach thecombination valves for secondary air system -5- and -9-.
At the same time, the secondary air inlet valve -N112--Item 6- will be activated, allowing vacuumpressure to reach the combination valves for secondary air system -5- and -9-. In this way, thecombination valve opens a passage for the secondary air system to supply air to the exhaust ports inthe cylinder head.
