Your vehicle’s exhaust contains
carbon monoxide gas. You should
have no problem with carbon
monoxide entering the vehicle in
normal driving if you maintain your
vehicle properly.

collect rapidly in enclosed areas,
such as a garage. Do not run the
engine with the garage door closed.
Even with the door open, run the
engine only long enough to move the
vehicle out of the garage.
With the tailgate open, air flow can
pull exhaust gas into your vehicle’s
interior and create a hazardous

tailgate open, open all the windows
and set the heating and cooling
system/climate control system as
shown below.
Have the exhaust system inspected
for leaks whenever:
If you must sit in your parked vehicle,
even in an unconfined area, adjust

climate control system as follows:
Select the fresh air mode.
