Engine Exhaust Gas Precautions
(Carbon Monoxide)
Engine exhaust gases contain carbon monoxide.
Though colorless and odorless, it is dangerous and
could be lethal, if inhaled.
• Carbon monoxide can be present with other exhaust
fumes. Therefore, if you smell exhaust fumes of any
kind inside your vehicle, have it inspected and
repaired immediately by an Authorized Kia Dealer.
If at all possible, do not drive with exhaust fumes
present. If you must, do so only with all windows
fully open. Have your vehicle checked and repaired
immediately.
• Do not operate the engine in confined or closed
areas (such as garages) any more than what is
necessary to move the vehicle in or out of the area.
• When the vehicle is stopped in an open area for
more than a short time with the engine running,
adjust the ventilation system to draw outside air into
the vehicle. Turn the engine off if you smell any
exhaust fumes.
• Never sit in a parked or stopped vehicle for an
extended time with the engine running.
