Exhaust gas precautions
Harmful  substance  to  the  human  body  is  included  in  exhaust
gases if inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases include harmful carbon monoxide (CO), which is colorless and
odorless. Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause exhaust gases enter the vehicle and  may lead to
an  accident  caused  by  light-headedness,  or  may  lead  to  death  or  a serious
health hazard.
■ Important points while driving
● Keep the trunk lid closed.
● If you smell exhaust gases in the vehicle even when the trunk l id is closed,
open the windows and have the vehicle inspected at your Toyota  dealer as
soon as possible.
■ When parking
● If  the  vehicle  is  in  a  poorly  ventilated  area  or  a  closed  area,  such  as  a
garage, stop the engine.
● Do not leave the vehicle with the engine on for a long time.
If  such  a  situation  cannot  be  avoided,  park  the  vehicle  in  an  o pen  space
and ensure that exhaust fumes do not enter the vehicle interior .
● Do not leave the engine running in an area with snow build-up,  or where it
is  snowing.  If  snowbanks  build  up  around  the  vehicle  while  the  engine  is
running, exhaust gases may collect and enter the vehicle.
■ Exhaust pipe
The  exhaust  system  needs  to  be  checked  periodically.  If  there  is  a  hole  or
crack caused by corrosion, damage to a joint or abnormal exhaust noise, be
sure to have the vehicle inspected and repaired by your Toyota dealer.
