Do not run engine in a poorly-venti-
lated area
Do not take a nap with engine run-
ning
WARNING
69T020310
Avoid breathing exhaust gases.
Exhaust gases contain carbon mon-
oxide, a potentially lethal gas that is
colorless and odorless. Since carbon
monoxide is difficult to detect by
itself, take the following precautions
to help prevent carbon monoxide
from entering your vehicle.
Otherwise, it may result in severe
health problems or death in the worst
case.
• Do not leave the engine running in
garages or other confined areas.

WARNING
(Continued)
• Do not park with the engine run-
ning for a long period of time, even
in an open area. If it is necessary to
sit for a short time in a parked vehi-
cle with the engine running, check
that the air intake selector is set to
“FRESH AIR” and the blower is at
high speed.
• Avoid operating the vehicle with
the tailgate or trunk open. If it is
necessary to do so, check that the
all windows are closed, and the
blower is at high speed with the air
intake selector set to “FRESH AIR”.
• To allow proper operation of your
vehicle’s ventilation system, keep
the air inlet grill in front of the wind-
shield clear of snow, leaves or
other obstructions at all times.
• Keep the exhaust tailpipe area clear
of snow and other material to help
reduce the buildup of exhaust
gases under the vehicle. This is
particularly important when parked
in blizzard conditions.
• Have the exhaust system inspected
periodically for damage and leak-
age. Any damage or leakage
should be repaired immediately.
WARNING
69RHS172
Do not take a nap with the engine
running. Otherwise, it may result in
an accident, severe health problems
or death in the worst case.
• Exhaust gases can enter the vehi-
cle due to surrounding conditions
and wind direction, possibly caus-
ing carbon monoxide poisoning.
