Dodge Charger: SAFETY TIPS / Carbon Monoxide Warnings
WARNING!
Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases is deadly. Follow the precautions
below to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning:
- Do not inhale exhaust gases. They contain carbon monoxide, a colorless
and odorless gas, which can kill. Never run the engine in a closed area, such
as a garage, and never sit in a parked vehicle with the engine running for an
extended period. If the vehicle is stopped in an open area with the engine running
for more than a short period, adjust the ventilation system to force fresh,
outside air into the vehicle.
- Guard against carbon monoxide with proper maintenance. Have the exhaust
system inspected every time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnormal conditions
repaired promptly. Until repaired, drive with all side windows fully open.
