Exhaust gas precautions
Harmful substance to the
human body is included in
exhaust gases if inhaled.
WARNING
Exhaust gases contain harmful car-
bon monoxide (CO), which is color-
less and odorless. Observe the
following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause exhaust
gases to enter the vehicle and may
lead to an accident caused by light-
headedness, or may lead to death or
a serious health hazard.
Important points while driving
■
●
Keep the back door closed.
If you smell exhaust gases in the
●
vehicle even when the back door is
closed, open the side windows and
have the vehicle inspected at a
SUZUKI dealer or a qualified work-
shop as soon as possible.
When parking
■
If the vehicle is in a poorly venti-
●
lated area or a closed area, such as
a garage, stop the hybrid system.
Do not leave the vehicle with the
●
hybrid system operating for a long
time.
If such a situation cannot be
avoided, park the vehicle in an
open space and ensure that
exhaust fumes do not enter the
vehicle interior.
Do not leave the hybrid system
●
operating in an area with snow
build-up, or where it is snowing. If
snowbanks build up around the
vehicle while the hybrid system is
operating, exhaust gases may col-
lect and enter the vehicle.
1-1. For safe use
■
Exhaust pipe
The exhaust system needs to be
checked periodically. If there is a hole
or crack caused by corrosion, dam-
age to a joint or abnormal exhaust
noise, be sure to have the vehicle
inspected and repaired by a SUZUKI
dealer or a qualified workshop.
