recommended to sit in your car for prolonged
periods with the engine on and the car not
moving.
An unattended vehicle with a running engine
is potentially hazardous. If warning lights

operation, they would go unnoticed.
f Never leave the engine idling unattended.
Danger of fire close to the hot exhaust
system.
f Do not park or drive your vehicle where
combustible materials, such as dry grass or
leaves, can come into contact with the hot
exhaust system. For information on the emission control system:
