WARNING
To reduce the risk of serious personal injury when starting and running the vehicle's engine:
x
Never start the engine or let it run in a confined or enclosed area. Engine exhaust contains
carbon monoxide, a poisonous, colorless, and odorless gas. Carbon monoxide can cause
unconsciousness and death.
x
Never start the engine or let it run if oil, fuel, or other flammable substances are under,
around, or have leaked from the vehicle, for example, due to vehicle damage.
x
Never leave the vehicle unattended with the engine running, especially when it is in gear.
The vehicle could move suddenly or some other unexpected event could occur, resulting in
property damage, fire, or personal injury.
x
Never use starting assist fluids. Starting fluids can explode and can cause a “run-away”
vehicle condition.
WARNING
The vehicle exhaust system and the catalytic converter get very hot and can cause fires and
serious personal injury.
x
Never park the vehicle where the hot exhaust system or catalytic converter could ignite
flammable materials, such as brush, leaves, dry grass, spilled fuel, etc.
x
Never apply additional undercoating or rust proofing on or near the exhaust manifold,
exhaust pipes, catalytic converter, or heat shields.
