44 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY TIPS Exhaust Gas the heating or cooling system to force outside air into the vehicle. Set the blower at high speed. WARNING! Exhaust gases can injure or kill. They contain carbon monoxide (CO) which is colorless and odorless. Breathing it can make you unconscious and can eventually poison you. To avoid breathing (CO) follow the safety tips below. • Do not run the engine in a closed garage or in confined areas any longer than needed to move your vehicle in or out of the area. • If it is necessary to sit in a parked vehicle with the engine running, adjust your heating or cooling controls to force outside air into the vehicle. Set the blower at high speed. • To avoid drawing exhaust gases into the vehicle, close the rear liftgate while driving. However, if for some reason it must remain open, close all windows. Adjust Safety Checks You Should Make Inside the Vehicle Seat Belts Inspect the belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays and loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system. Seat belt assemblies must be replaced after an accident if they have been damaged (bent retractor, torn webbing, etc.). If there is any question regarding belt or retractor condition, see your authorized dealer.
