It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk lid
open because carbon monoxide (CO)
gas
can
come into your vehicle.
You
can’t see or smell
CO.
It can cause unconsciousness and
even
death.
If
you must drive with the trunk lid open or if
electrical wiring or other cable connections must
pass through the seal between the body and the
trunk lid:
Make sure all windows are shut.
Turn the fan on your heating
or
cooling
system to its highest speed with the setting
on any airflow selection except RECIRC.
That will force outside air into your vehicle.
See “Comfort Controls” in the Index.
If
you
have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them
all
the way.
See “Engine Exhaust” in the Index.
Theft
Vehicle theft is big business, especially
in
some
cities.
Although your Aurora has a number of theft-deterrent
features, we know that nothing we put on
it
can make it
impossible
to
steal. However, there are ways you
can help.
Key
in the Ignition
If
you
leave your vehicle with the keys inside, it’s an
easy target for joy riders or professional thieves
--
so
don’t do it.
With the ignition
OFF
and the driver’s door open, you’ll
hear a chime reminding you to remove your key from
the ignition and take it with you. Always do this. Your
steering wheel will be locked, and
so
will your ignition
and transaxle. And remember
to
lock the doors.
Parking at Night
Park in a lighted spot, close all windows and lock your
vehicle. Remember to keep your valuables out
of
sight.
Put them in a storage area, or take them with you.
