Engine exhaust gas precautions

• Carbon monoxide can be present with
other exhaust fumes. Therefore, if
you smell exhaust fumes of any kind
inside your vehicle, have it inspected
and repaired immediately. If you ever
suspect exhaust fumes are coming
into your vehicle, drive it only with
all the windows fully open. Have
your vehicle checked and repaired
immediately.
WARNING
Exhaust
Engine exhaust gases contain carbon
monoxide (CO). Though colorless
and odorless, it is dangerous and
could be lethal if inhaled. Follow the
instructions on this page to avoid CO
poisoning.
• Do not operate the engine in confined
or closed areas (such as garages) any
more than what is necessary to move
the vehicle in or out of the area.
• When the vehicle is stopped in an
open area for more than a short time
with the engine running, adjust the
ventilation system (as needed) to draw
outside air into the vehicle.
• Never sit in a parked or stopped
vehicle for any extended time with the
engine running.
• When the engine stalls or fails to
start, excessive attempts to restart
the engine may cause damage to the
emission control system.
