Your vehicle’s exhaust contains

carbon monoxide gas. You should

have no problem with carbon

monoxide entering the vehicle in

normal driving if you maintain your

vehicle properly.

Have the exhaust system inspected

for leaks whenever:

The vehicle is raised for an oil

change.

You notice a change in the sound

of the exhaust.

The vehicle was in an accident

that may have damaged the under-

side.

High levels of carbon monoxide can

collect rapidly in enclosed areas,

such as a garage. Do not run the

engine with the garage door closed.

Even with the door open, run the

engine only long enough to move the

vehicle out of the garage.

tailgate open, open all the windows

and set the heating and cooling

system/climate control system as

shown below.

Select the Fresh Air mode.

Select the mode.

Turn the fan on high speed.

comfortable setting.

If you must sit in your parked vehicle,

even in an unconfined area, with the

engine running, adjust the heating

and cooling system/climate control

system as follows:
