[. . . ] Some recreational vehicle appliances such as stoves, refrigerators, heaters, etc. may also generate carbon monoxide. EXHAUST GAS (Carbon monoxide) WARNING Do not breathe exhaust gases; they contain colorless and odorless carbon monoxide. ¼ If you suspect that exhaust fumes are entering the vehicle, drive with all windows fully open, and have the vehicle inspected immediately. ¼ Do not run the engine in closed spaces such as a garage. ¼ Do not park the vehicle with the engine running for any extended length of time. ¼ Keep the rear hatch/trunk lid closed while driving, otherwise exhaust gases could be drawn into the pas- 5-2 Starting and driving ¼ The exhaust system and body should be inspected by a qualified mechanic 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. · You have had an accident involving damage to the exhaust system, underbody, or rear of the vehicle. mals or flammable materials away from the exhaust system components. ¼ Do not stop or park the vehicle over flammable materials such as dry grass, waste paper or rags. They may ignite and cause a fire. ¼ Avoid driving with an extremely low fuel level. Running out of fuel could cause the engine to misfire, damaging the three-way catalyst. ¼ Do not race the engine while warming it up. ¼ Do not push or tow your vehicle to start the engine. CAUTION ¼ Do not use leaded gasoline. Deposits from leaded gasoline will seriously reduce the three-way catalyst's ability to help reduce exhaust pollutants. Malfunctions in the ignition, fuel injection, or electrical systems can cause overrich fuel flow into the three-way catalyst, causing it to overheat. Do not keep driving if the engine misfires, or if noticeable loss of performance or other unusual operating conditions are detected. Have the vehicle inspected promptly by a NISSAN dealer. TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires. ) As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate them to the proper presStarting and driving THREE-WAY CATALYST The three-way catalyst is an emission control device installed in the exhaust system. Exhaust gases in the converter are burned at high temperatures to help reduce pollutants. WARNING ¼ The exhaust gas and the exhaust system are very hot. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure.
