Customer Safety Information

PERSONAL SAFETY

Carbon Monoxide
Exhaust gas contains toxic carbon monoxide. Do not run the engine in confined areas or breathe concentrated exhaust gases. Breathing exhaust gases may cause loss of consciousness or even death.

Exhaust System Leaks
Repair any leaks in the exhaust system as soon as possible. Hot gases escaping from the leak can ignite flammable materials and may set the vehicle on fire.

If exhaust fumes circulate through the passenger compartment, they may cause throat, sinus, and eye irritation, light headedness or drowsiness, headaches, and increased irritability, especially while driving with windows closed.

DANGEROUS OPERATING CONDITIONS

Catalytic Converter
The catalytic converter routinely reaches operating temperatures of 1200° F (650° C) and will stay hot for some time after the engine has been shut off. Do NOT park the vehicle over any object or material that could ignite (i.e. dry leaves, cardboard, puddles of oil, or other combustibles).

Fuel Odors and Excessive Emissions
Be alert for fuel odors and excessive tailpipe emissions (black smoke etc...). These are problem indicators.

In case of poor engine operation (misfiring), avoid driving the vehicle and correct the problem as soon as possible.

RECOMMENDATIONS

^ Use only UNLEADED FUEL.

^ Service vehicle on regular scheduled maintenance intervals to ensure proper engine performance and lower emission levels.

^ Avoid running out of fuel.

^ Avoid push starting the vehicle.
