ask your gasoline retailer whether or not his/her gaso-
line contains MMT.

Materials Added To Fuel
Besides using unleaded gasoline with the proper octane
rating, gasolines that contain detergents, corrosion and
stability additives are recommended. Using gasolines
that have these additives will help improve fuel
economy, reduce emissions, and maintain vehicle per-
formance.

Indiscriminate use of fuel system cleaning agents should
be avoided. Many of these materials intended for gum
and varnish removal may contain active solvents or
similar ingredients. These can harm fuel system gasket
and diaphragm materials.

WARNING!

Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases
is deadly. Follow the precautions below

to prevent carbon monoxide poisoning:

Do not inhale exhaust gases. They contain

carbon monoxide, a colorless and odorless gas
which can kill. Never run the engine in a closed
area, such as a garage, and never sit in a parked
vehicle with the engine running for an extended
period. If the vehicle is stopped in an open area
with the engine running for more than a short
period, adjust the ventilation system to force
fresh, outside air into the vehicle.

Guard against carbon monoxide with proper

maintenance.Have the exhaust system inspected
every time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnor-
mal conditions repaired promptly. Until re-
paired, drive with all side windows fully open.

Keep the liftgate closed when driving your

vehicle to prevent carbon monoxide and other
poisonous exhaust gases from entering the ve-
hicle.
