Warning
Exhaust gases can enter the vehicle if it
is driven with the liftgate or trunk/hatch
open, or with any objects that pass
through the seal between the body and
the trunk/hatch or liftgate. Engine
exhaust contains carbon monoxide (CO)
which cannot be seen or smelled. It can
cause unconsciousness and even death.
If the vehicle must be driven with the
liftgate or trunk/hatch open:
.
Close all of the windows.
.
Fully open the air outlets on or under
the instrument panel.
.
Adjust the climate control system to a
setting that brings in only outside air
and set the fan speed to the highest
setting. See
“
Climate Control Systems
”
in the Index.
.
If the vehicle is equipped with a
power liftgate, disable the power
liftgate function.
