Operate the vehicle only when
the tailgate or rear window is
completely closed so that no exhaust
fumes penetrate the interior of the
vehicle. If it should happen that the
tailgate or rear window are left open
anyway while driving:
> Close all windows, including the
sliding/tilt sunroof.
> Increase the air supply for the air
conditioner or automatic climate
control to a high level. Refer to
