Exhaust gas (carbon monoxide)
WARNING
• Do not breathe exhaust gases; they
contain colorless and odorless carbon
monoxide. Carbon monoxide is
dangerous. It can cause unconsciousness
or death.
• If you suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering the vehicle, drive with
all windows fully open, and have the
vehicle inspected immediately.
• Do not run the engine in closed
spaces such as a garage.
• Do not park the vehicle with the
engine running for any extended
length of time.
• Keep the lift gate/trunk closed
while driving, otherwise exhaust
gases could be drawn into the
passenger compartment. If you
must drive with the lift gate/trunk
open, follow these precautions:
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the
air recirculation to
off
and the fan control to high to
circulate the air.
• If electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass to a trailer
through the seal on the lift gate/
trunk or the body, follow the manufacturer’s
recommendation to prevent
carbon monoxide entry into the
vehicle.
• If a special body, camper or other
equipment is added for recreational
or other usage, follow the manufacturer’s
recommendation to prevent
carbon monoxide entry into the
vehicle. (Some recreational vehicle
appliances such as stoves, refrigerators,
heaters, etc. may also generate
carbon monoxide.)
• The exhaust system and body
should be inspected by a qualified
mechanic whenever:
— The vehicle is raised for service.
— You suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering into the passenger
compartment.
— You notice a change in the
sound of the exhaust system.
— You have had an accident involving
damage to the exhaust
system, underbody, or rear of
the vehicle.
