CONTROL

Alternative design

Watch for fluid leaks, strange
odors, smoke, loss of oil pressure,
engine overheating, illumination of
the

charging system

warning light

or the

check engine

warning light.

These events could indicate that
the emission control system is not
working properly.

Exhaust leaks may result in
entry of harmful and

potentially lethal fumes into the
passenger compartment.

Do not park, idle or drive
your vehicle in dry grass or

other dry ground cover. The
emission system heats up the
engine compartment and exhaust
system, which can start a fire.
