Exhaust gas (carbon monoxide)
- 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 closed while
driving, otherwise exhaust gases
could be drawn into the passenger
compartment. If you must drive with
the lift gate 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 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.
