Warning! Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas. Inhalation of carbon monoxide causes loss of consciousness and can be fatal! Avoid being in a closed, unventilated room or performing work that forces you to breathe air containing carbon monoxide in high concentrations!
In closed spaces with poor ventilation, such as a garage, the CO concentration can quickly increase to a dangerous level. Therefore, it is prohibited to leave the engine running with the garage door closed. Even with the door open, do not leave the engine running for a long time. Immediately after starting the engine, leave the garage and continue warming up the engine outside.
When driving with the tailgate open, engine exhaust gases may enter the vehicle interior and create a dangerous situation. If a situation arises where the tailgate cannot be closed tightly, all windows should be fully opened and the ventilation and air conditioning system turned on.
When inside a vehicle with the engine idling (even in an open area), make the following inclusions:
- 1. Turn on the interior ventilation system to fresh air intake mode;
- 2. Turn on the heater fan to maximum speed;
- 3. Set the regulator to a comfortable air temperature level.
