Trunk

CAUTION:
{
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk
lid open because carbon monoxide (CO)
gas can come into your vehicle. You
cannot see or smell CO. It can cause
unconsciousness and even death. If you
must drive with the trunk lid open or if
electrical wiring or other cable connections
must pass through the seal between the
body and the trunk lid:
•
Make sure all other windows are shut.
•
Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed and select
the control setting that will force
outside air into your vehicle.
See Climate Control System.
•
If you have air outlets on or under
the instrument panel, open them all
the way.
See Engine Exhaust on page 121.
