WARNING:
.The heater and air conditioner operate only
when the engine is running.
. Never leave children or adults who would
normally require the support of others alone
in the vehicle. Pets should not be left alone
either. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls and inadvertently be-
come involved in a serious accident and
injure themselves. On hot, sunny days,
temperatures in a closed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause se-
vere or possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals.
. Do not use the recirculation mode for long
periods as it may cause the interior air to
become stale and the windows to fog up.
. Do not adjust the heating and air condition-
ing controls while driving so that full atten-
tion may be given to vehicle operation.

tioner controls to turn off air recirculation to

ment. This should help reduce odors inside
