WA R N I N G
Avoid breathing exhaust gases.
Exhaust gases contain carbon mon-
oxide, a potentially lethal gas that is
colorless and odorless. Since carbon
monoxide is difficult to detect by
itself, take the following precautions
to help prevent carbon monoxide
from entering your vehicle.
• Do not leave the engine running in
garages or other confined areas. (Continued)
WA R N I N G
(Continued)
• Do not park with the engine run-
ning for a long period of time, even
in an open area. If it is necessary to
sit for a short time in a parked vehi-
cle with the engine running, check
that the air intake selector is set to
FRESH AIR and the blower is at
high speed.
• Avoid operating the vehicle with the tailgate or tr unk open. If it is
necessary to do so, check that the
sunroof (if equipped) and all win-
dows are closed, and the blower is
at high speed with the air intake
selector set to FRESH AIR.
• To allow proper operation of your vehicle’s ventilation system, keep
the air inlet grill in front of the wind-
shield clear of snow, leaves or
other obstructions at all times.
• Keep the exhaust tailpipe area clear
of snow and other material to help
reduce the buildup of exhaust
gases under the vehicle. This is
particularly important when parked
in blizzard conditions.
• Have the exhaust system inspected
periodically for damage and leak-
age. Any damage or leakage
should be repaired immediately.

After washing the vehicle, waxing and pol-
ishing are recommended to further protect
and beautify the paint.
• Only use waxes and polishes of good
quality.
• When using waxes and polishes, observe the precautions specified by the
manufacturers.
NOTICE
When using a commercial car wash
product, observe the cautions speci-
fied by the manufacturer. Never use
strong household detergents or
soaps.
NOTICE
If you use an automatic car wash,
check that your vehicle’s body parts,
such as spoilers, cannot be dam-
aged. If you are in doubt, consult the
car wash operator for advice.
NOTICE
If you use a high-pressure cleaner,
keep away the nozzle from your vehi-
cle sufficiently.
• Bringing the nozzle to your vehicle
too close or pointing the nozzle to
the opening of front grill or bumper
etc. can cause damage and mal-
function of the vehicle body and
parts.
• Pointing the nozzle to the weather-
strip of door glasses, doors and the
sunroof (if equi pped) can allow
water to enter the cabin.
