FEATURES AND CONTROLS Engine Exhaust WARNING Engine exhaust can kill. It contains the gas carbon monoxide (CO), which you can't see or smell. It can cause unconsciousness and death. You might have exhaust coming in if: • Your exhaust system sounds strange or different. • Your vehicle gets rusty underneath. • Your vehicle was damaged in a collision. • Your vehicle was damaged when driving over high points on the road or over road debris. • Repairs weren't done correctly. • Your vehicle or exhaust system had been modified improperly. If you ever suspect exhaust is coming into your vehicle: • Drive it only with all the windows down to blow out any CO; and • Have your vehicle fixed immediately. Running Your Engine While You Are Parked It's better not to park with the engine running. But if you ever have to, here are some things to know. WARNING It is dangerous to get out of your vehicle if the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P) or the appropriate position with the parking brake firmly set. Your vehicle can roll. To determine the appropriate position, see "Parking Your Vehicle". Don't leave your vehicle when the engine is running unless you have to. If you've left the engine running, the vehicle can move suddenly. You or others could be injured. To be sure your vehicle won't move, even when you're on fairly level ground, always set your parking brake and move the shift lever to PARK (P) or the appropriate position as described under "Parking Your Vehicle". Follow the proper steps to be sure your vehicle won't move. See "Shifting Into Park (P)" or "Parking Your Vehicle (Manual Transmission)" in this section. WARNING Idling the engine with the climate control system off could allow dangerous exhaust into your vehicle. See the earlier Warning under "Engine Exhaust." Also, idling in a closed-in place can let deadly carbon monoxide (CO) into your vehicle even if the climate control fan is at the highest setting. One place this can happen is a garage. Exhaust - with CO - can come in easily. NEVER park in a garage with the engine running. Another closed-in place can be a blizzard. See "Winter Driving" in the Index. 2-19
