PRECAUTIONS WHEN
STARTING AND DRIVING
WARNING
O Do not leave children, unreliable
adults, or pets alone in your ve-
hicle. They could accidentally in-
jure themselves or others through
inadvertent operation of the ve-
hicle. Also, on hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle
could quickly become high
enough to cause severe or possi-
bly fatal injuries to people or
animals.
O Properly secure all cargo to help
prevent it from sliding or shifting.
Do not place cargo higher than
the seatbacks. In a sudden stop or
collision, unsecured cargo could
cause personal injury.
EXHAUST GAS (Carbon Mon-
oxide)
WARNING
Do not breathe exhaust gases. They
contain colorless and odorless car-
bon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is
dangerous and can cause uncon-
sciousness or death.
O If you suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering the vehicle, drive
with all windows fully open, and
have the vehicle inspected imme-
diately.
O Do not run the engine in closed
spaces such as a garage.
O Do not park the vehicle with the
engine running for any extended
length of time.
O Keep the back door and window
closed while driving, otherwise
exhaust gases may be drawn into
the passenger compartment. If
you must drive with them open
follow these precautions:
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the air recirculate switch
‘‘OFF’’ and the fan control at
‘‘high’’ to circulate the air.
O If electrical wiring or other cable
connections must be routed to a
trailer through the seal on the
trunk lid or the body, follow the
manufacturer’s recommendation
to prevent carbon monoxide entry
