All engine exhaust contains carbon monoxide, a deadly gas. Breathing carbon
monoxide can cause headaches, dizziness, drowsiness, nausea, confusion and
eventually death.
Carbon monoxide is a colorless, odorless, tasteless gas that may be present
even if you do not see or smell any engine exhaust. Deadly levels of carbon mon-
oxide can collect rapidly, and you can quickly be overcome and unable to save
yourself. Also, deadly levels of carbon monoxide can linger for hours or days in
enclosed or poorly ventilated areas. If you experience any symptoms of carbon
monoxide poisoning, leave the area immediately, get fresh air and seek medical
treatment.
To prevent serious injury or death from carbon monoxide:
– Never run the vehicle in poorly ventilated or partially enclosed areas such as
garages, carports or barns. Even if you try to ventilate engine exhaust with
fans or open windows and doors, carbon monoxide can rapidly reach danger-
ous levels.
– Never run the vehicle outdoors where engine exhaust can be drawn into a
building through openings such as windows and doors.

Gasoline is extremely flammable and highly explosive. Fuel vapors can spread
and be ignited by a spark or flame many feet away from the engine. To reduce
the risk of fire or explosion, follow these instructions:
– Use only an approved gasoline container to store fuel.
– Never fill the gasoline container on the vehicle - an electrical static discharge
may ignite the fuel.
– Never carry gasoline container(s) or any dangerous liquids on the cargo rack.
– Strictly adhere to instructions in Vehicle Fueling Procedure .
– Never start or operate the engine if the fuel cap is not properly installed.
Gasoline is poisonous and can cause injury or death.
– Never siphon gasoline by mouth.
– If you swallow gasoline, get any in your eye(s), or inhale gasoline vapor, see
a doctor immediately.
If gasoline spills on you, wash with soap and water and change your clothes.

Certain components like brake rotors and exhaust components become hot dur-
ing operation. Avoid contact with those parts during and shortly after operation to
avoid burn wounds.

havior accordingly.
