HANDBOOK INFORMATION
Keep Your Car in Safe Condition
Having a tire blowout or a mechanical
failure can be extremely hazardous.
To reduce the possibility of such
problems, check the tire condition
and pressures frequently, and have
all scheduled maintenance (see
separate Maintenance Record booklet)
performed in a timely manner.
Engine Exhaust Fumes
Engine exhaust fumes can kill. They
contain the gas carbon monoxide (CO),
which you can’t see or smell. It can
cause unconsciousness and death.
If you ever suspect exhaust gas is
entering the cabin, do not drive the
car until the fault has been repaired.
Running the engine in an enclosed
space can let exhaust gas into the
car, more quickly if the interior fan is
switched on. NEVER park in a garage
with the engine running.
The exhaust sounding strange or
different may be an indication of
exhaust system damage.
Ensure the car is checked by an
authorised dealer after any repairs
have been made.

– Operating, servicing and
maintaining a passenger vehicle
or off-highway motor vehicle
can expose you to chemicals

the State of California to cause
cancer and birth defects or
other reproductive harm.
– If you ever suspect exhaust gas
is entering the cockpit, do not
drive the car until the fault has
been repaired.
– In particular, running the engine
in an enclosed space can let
exhaust gas into the car, even
more quickly if the interior fan is
switched on.
– NEVER park in a garage with the
