Setting and operating vehicle
components when driving
Setting or operating the on-board computer,
radio, navigation system, telephone or other
equipment when driving could distract you from
the traffic. You could lose control of the vehicle
resulting in serious personal injury or death.
f
Operate the components while driving only if
the traffic situation allows you to do so safely.
f
Carry out any complicated operating or setting
procedures only with the vehicle stationary.
Engine Exhaust
Engine exhaust is dangerous if inhaled.
Engine exhaust fumes have many components
which you can smell. They also contain carbon
monoxide (CO), which is a colorless and odorless
gas.
Carbon monoxide can cause unconsciousness
and even death if inhaled.
f
Never start or let the engine run in an en-
closed, unventilated area.
It is not recommended to sit in your car for
prolonged periods with the engine on and the
car not moving.
Engine exhaust, some of its constituents, and
certain vehicle components contain or emit
chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
In addition, certain fluids contained in vehicles and
certain products of component wear contain or
emit chemicals known to the State of California to
cause cancer and birth defects or other
reproductive harm.
The exhaust pipe is hot when the vehicle is running
and remains hot for some time after the vehicle is
turned off.
f
To prevent injury, make a point of noting where
your vehicle’s exhaust pipe is, avoid placing
your legs near the exhaust pipe when loading
and unloading cargo in the rear, and closely
supervise children around the vehicle during
time when the exhaust pipe could be hot.
A hot exhaust pipe can cause serious burns.
