Starting and driving
GUID-E99D9717-DEE1-4512-BDF8-144E3D0EEF23
WARNING
.
Do not leave children or adults who
would normally require the support
of others alone in your vehicle. Pets
should not be left alone either. They
could accidentally injure themselves
or others through inadvertent op-
eration of the vehicle. Also, on hot,
sunny
days,
temperatures
in
a
closed vehicle could quickly become
high
enough
to
cause
severe
or
possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.
.
Properly secure all cargo with ropes
or straps to help prevent it from
sliding
or
shifting.
Do
not
place
cargo higher than the seatbacks. In
a sudden stop or collision, unse-
cured cargo could cause personal
injury (Hardtop models).
.
Closely
supervise
children
when
they
are
around
cars
to
prevent
them from playing and becoming
locked in the trunk where they could
be seriously injured. Keep the car
locked with the trunk closed when
not in use, and prevent children’s
access to car keys (CrossCabriolet
models).
EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide)
GUID-B1E6FC9D-58E3-4E6A-A439-2EA1D37CC8A4
WARNING
.
Do not breathe exhaust gases; they
contain colorless and odorless car-
bon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is
dangerous.
It
can
cause
uncon-
sciousness or death.
.
If you suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering the vehicle, drive with
all windows fully open, and have the
vehicle inspected immediately.
.
Do
not
run
the
engine
in
closed
spaces such as a garage.
.
Do not park the vehicle with the
engine
running
for
any
extended
length of time.
.
Keep
the
lift
gate/trunk
closed
while
driving,
otherwise
exhaust
gases
could
be
drawn
into
the
passenger
compartment.
If
you
must drive with the lift gate/trunk
open, follow these precautions:
1. Open all the windows.
2. Set the
air recirculation to off
and
the
fan
control
to
high
to
circulate the air.
.
If electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass to a trailer
through the seal on the lift gate/
trunk or the body, follow the manu-
facturer’s recommendation to pre-
vent carbon monoxide entry into the
vehicle.
.
If a special body, camper or other
equipment is added for recreational
or other usage, follow the manufac-
turer’s recommendation to prevent
carbon
monoxide
entry
into
the
vehicle. (Some recreational vehicle
appliances such as stoves, refrig-
erators, heaters, etc. may also gen-
erate carbon monoxide.)
.
The
exhaust
system
and
body
should be inspected by a qualified
mechanic whenever:
— The vehicle is raised for service.
— You suspect that exhaust fumes
are entering into the passenger
compartment.
