On hot, sunny days, temperatures in
a closed vehicle could quickly be-
come high enough to cause severe or
possibly fatal injuries to people or
animals. Do not leave children or
adults who would normally requirethe assistance of others in your ve-
hicle. Unattended pets should also
not be left alone.

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.

Positioning of the heater or air con-
ditioner controls should not be done
while driving, so full attention may be
given to vehicle operation.
Start the engine and operate the controls to
activate the air conditioner.
