7.3.1. Exhaust gas (Carbon Monoxide)
Do not breathe exhaust gases; they contain colourless and odourless carbon monoxide. Carbon monoxide is a dangerous gas and can cause unconsciousness or death.
If you suspect that exhaust fumes are entering the vehicle, drive with all windows fully open and have the vehicle inspected immediately.
Do not run the engine in closed spaces, such as a garage, for any longer than is absolutely necessary.
Do not park the vehicle with the engine running for any extended length of time.
Keep the tailgate closed while driving, otherwise exhaust gases could be drawn into the passenger compartment. If you must drive in this way for some reason, take the following steps:
Open all the windows.
Set the air recirculation mode (
) to the “OFF” position.Set the fan speed control to the maximum position to circulate the air.
If electrical wiring or other cable connections must pass to a trailer through the seal of the body, follow the manufacturer's recommendations to prevent carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle.
When a vehicle has been stopped in an open area with its engine running for any significant length of time, turn the fan on to force outside air into the vehicle.
If a special body or other equipment is added for recreational or other usage, follow the manufacturer’s recommendation to prevent carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle. (Some recreational vehicle appliances such as stoves, refrigerators, heaters, etc. may also generate carbon monoxide.)
The exhaust system and body should be inspected by a NISSAN dealer or qualified workshop whenever:
The vehicle is raised for service.
You suspect that exhaust fumes are entering into the passenger compartment.
You notice a change in the sound of the exhaust system.
