ment there is a risk of scalding, injuries, accidents and
fire.
Never start the engine of the vehicle/machine in small or
enclosed spaces, which are not sufficiently ventilated.
Exhaust emissions contain carbon monoxide (CO) which
is a transparent, odourless and lethal gas.
Never leave a vehicle/machine unattended while the en-
gine is running. If a vehicle/machine is left unattended
while the engine is running, there is a risk of injuries.
The engine compartment of each vehicle/machine is a
hazardous area. Before checking the engine compart-
ment, switch off the engine, pull the ignition key out of
the ignition lock, and allow the engine to cool off. Hot en-
gine components may cause burns, if they get in contact
with your skin.

pressurised.

collected in suitable containers which are identified ac-
cordingly. To avoid any risk of poisoning, never use food
cans or beverage cans. Other persons may drink from the
