WARNING:
. Do not breathe exhaust gas;itcontains
colorless andodorless carbonmonoxide.
Carbon monoxide isdangerous. Itcan cause
unconsciousness ordeath.
. Ifyou suspect thatexhaust fumesare
entering thevehicle, drivewithallwindows
fully open, andhave thevehicle inspected
immediately.

otherwise exhaustgascould bedrawn into
the passenger compartment. Ifyou must
drive withtheback dooropen, follow these
precautions:
Ð Open allthe windows.
Ð Turn theairrecirculation modeoffand
set the fanspeed control tothe highest
level tocirculate theair.
. Ifelectrical wiringorother cable connec-
tions mustpasstoatrailer through theseal

. Ifaspecial bodyorother equipment is
added forrecreational orother usage, follow
the manufacturer's recommendation topre-
vent carbon monoxide entryintothevehicle.
(Some recreational vehicleappliances such
as stoves, refrigerators, heaters,etc.may also
generate carbonmonoxide.)
. The exhaust systemandbody should be
inspected byaqualified mechanic whenever:
Ð Your vehicle israised whilebeing ser-
viced.
Ð You suspect thatexhaust fumesare

and/or damage thethree-way catalyst.
. Keep yourengine tunedup.Malfunctions in
the ignition, fuelinjection, orelectrical
systems maycause overrich fueltoflow into

misfires, orifnoticeable lossofperformance
or other unusual operating conditions are
detected. Havethevehicle inspected
promptly byaNISSAN dealer.
. Avoid driving withanextremely lowfuel
