Parking over Things

That Burn

Warning
Things that can burn could touch
hot exhaust parts under the vehicle
and ignite. Do not park over papers,
leaves, dry grass, or other things
that can burn.

Extended Parking

It is best not to park with the vehicle
running. If the vehicle is left running,
be sure it will not move and there is
adequate ventilation.
See Shifting Into Park (Electronic
Shifter) 0 222 or
Shifting Into Park (Mechanical Shifter)
0 221 and

Engine Exhaust 0 224.

If the vehicle is left parked and
running with the remote key outside
the vehicle, it will continue to run for
up to 15 minutes.
If the vehicle is left parked and
running with the remote key inside
the vehicle, it will continue to run for
up to 30 minutes.
The vehicle could turn off sooner if it
is parked on a hill, due to lack of
available fuel.
The timer will reset if the vehicle is
taken out of P (Park) while it is
running.
Engine Exhaust
Warning
Engine exhaust contains carbon
monoxide (CO), which cannot be
seen or smelled. Exposure to CO
can cause unconsciousness and
even death.
Exhaust may enter the vehicle if:
The vehicle idles in areas with
poor ventilation (parking garages,
tunnels, deep snow that may
block underbody airflow or tail
pipes).
The exhaust smells or sounds
strange or different.
The exhaust system leaks due to
corrosion or damage.
The vehicle exhaust system has
been modified, damaged,
or improperly repaired.
There are holes or openings in
the vehicle body from damage or
aftermarket modifications that
are not completely sealed.
