Exhaust gas precautions
Harmful substance to the human
body is contained in exhaust gases
if inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases contain harmful carbon
monoxide (CO), which is colorless and
odorless.
Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause exhaust gases
to enter the vehicle and may lead to an
accident caused by light-headedness, or
may lead to death or a serious health
hazard.
■
Important points while driving
●
Keep the back door closed.
●
If you smell exhaust gases in the vehi-
cle even when the back door is closed,
open the windows and have the vehi-
cle inspected at your Lexus dealer as
soon as possible.
■
When parking
●
If the vehicle is in a poorly ventilated
area or a closed area, such as a
garage, stop the engine.
●
Do not leave the vehicle with the
engine running for a long time.
If such a situation cannot be avoided,
park the vehicle in an open space and
ensure that exhaust fumes do not enter
the vehicle interior.
●
Do not leave the engine running in an
area with snow build-up, or where it is
snowing.
If snowbanks build up around the vehi-
cle while the engine is running, exhaust
gases may collect and enter the vehi-
cle.
