EXHAUST GAS WARNING
Avoid breathing exhaust gases. Ex-
haust gases contain carbon monox-
ide, a potentially lethal gas that is
colorless and odorless. Since carbon
monoxide is difficult to detect by
itself, be sure to take the following
precautions to help prevent carbon
monoxide from entering your vehicle.
* Do not leave the engine running in
garages or other confined areas.
* 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
vehicle with the engine running,

make sure the air intake lever is
set to "FRESH AIR" and the fan is
at high spead.
* Avoid operating the vehicle with
the rear door, tailgate, or rear win-
dow open. If it is necessary to
operate the vehicle with the rear
door, tailgate, or rear window
open, make sure the folding sun-
roof (if equipped) and all windows
are closed, and the fan is at high
speed with the air intake lever set
to "FRESH AIR".
* To allow proper operation of your
vehicle's ventilation system, keep
the air inlet grille in front of the
windshield 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 leaks.
Any damage or leaks should be
repaired immediately.
