Driving Your Vehicle; Be Sure The Exhaust System Does Not Leak - Kia Seltos 2019 Owner's Manual

Driving your vehicle

DRIVING YOUR VEHICLE
Be sure the exhaust system
does not leak.
The exhaust system should be
checked whenever the vehicle is
raised to change the oil or for any
other purpose.
If you hear a change in the sound of
the exhaust or if you drive over
something that strikes the under
neath side of the vehicle, have the
exhaust system checked as soon as
possible by a professional workshop.
Kia recommends to visit an autho
rized Kia dealer/service partner.
WARNING
Engine exhaust
Do not inhale exhaust fumes or
leave your engine running in a
enclosed area for a prolonged time.
Exhaust fumes contain carbon mon
oxide, a colorless, odorless gas that
can cause unconsciousness and
death by asphyxiation.

Be sure the exhaust system does not leak.

WARNING
Open tailgate
Do not drive with the tailgate open.
Poisonous exhaust gases can enter
the passenger compartment. If you
must drive with the tailgate open
proceed as follows:
1. Close all windows.
2. Open side vents.
3. Set the air intake control at
"Fresh", the air flow control at
"Floor" or "Face" and the fan at
the highest speed.
