Stow n’ VAC Integrated Vacuum — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with an integrated
vacuum system. The system can clean up dry spills and
debris within the vehicle.
1. Make sure the vehicle is in Park (P) and the ignition isset to Run/Accessory mode.
NOTE: •The vacuum system will run for 10 minutes off
battery power. At 10 minutes, the vacuum will shut
down and a low battery indication light will come on
one minute before shutdown.
• When the vehicle engine is running, the vacuum will
be capable of continuous operation.
WARNING!
Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is deadly.
Follow the precautions below to prevent carbon
monoxide poisoning:
• Do not inhale exhaust gases. They contain carbon
monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas, which can
kill. Never run the engine in a closed area, such as
a garage, and never sit in a parked vehicle with the
engine running for an extended period. If the
vehicle is stopped in an open area with the engine
running for more than a short period, adjust the
ventilation system to force fresh, outside air into
the vehicle.
• Guard against carbon monoxide with proper main-
tenance. Have the exhaust system inspected every
time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnormal
conditions repaired promptly. Until repaired, drive
with all side windows fully open.

explosion. Any disregard of this warning could result
in injury or death.
WARNING!
Do not leave the vacuum running while unattended.
Do not use with a missing or damage filter, as it will
allow debris to pass through the motor and possibly
damage it. Frequently check the filter to insure it is in
place and in good condition.Carbon Monoxide Gas
Do not leave the vehicle’s liftgate open
if the vehicle is running while the
vacuum is in use.
