ENGINE EXHAUST GAS
PRECAUTIONS
(CARBON MONOXIDE)
Engine exhaust gases contain carbon
monoxide. Though colorless and odor-
less, it is dangerous and could be lethal,
if inhaled.
• 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
by an Authorized Kia Dealer. If at all
possible, do not drive with exhaust
fumes present. If you must, do so
only with all windows fully open.
Have your vehicle checked and
repaired immediately.
• 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 to draw outside air
into the vehicle. Turn the engine off
if you smell any exhaust fumes.
• Never sit in a parked or stopped
vehicle for an extended time with the
engine running.
