WARNING
NEVER start or let the engine run in
an
enclosed, unventilated area. Ex-
haust fumes from the engine contain
carbon monoxide, a colorless and
odorless gas. Carbon monoxide can
be fatal if inhaled. Failure to comply
may result in property damage, per-
sonal injury, or death.
WARNING
Never idle your vehicle for prolonged
periods
of time if you sense that ex-
haust fumes are entering the cab. In-
vestigate the cause of the fumes and
correct it as soon as possible. If the
vehicle must be driven under these
conditions, drive only with the windows
open. Failure to repair the source of
the exhaust fumes may result in death,
personal injury, equipment or property
damage.
NOTE
Keep the engine exhaust system and
the
vehicle's cab ventilation system
properly maintained. It is recommend-
ed that the vehicle's exhaust system
and cab be inspected (1) By a compe-
tent technician every 15,000 miles
(24,140 km); (2) Whenever a change
is noticed in the sound of the exhaust
system; or (3) Whenever the exhaust
system, underbody, or cab is dam-
aged.
Check Engine Oil Level
WARNING
Hot engine oil can be dangerous. You
could
be burned. Let the engine oil
cool down before changing it. Failure
to comply may result in death, person-
al injury, equipment or property dam-
age.
To check the engine oil level:
1. Park the vehicle on level ground
and wait 15 minutes after shutting
the engine OFF
. This allows time
for the oil to drain to the oil pan.
2. Remove the dipstick and wipe it off
with a clean, lint-free rag.
3. Reinsert the dipstick all the way in
and pull it out again to check oil
level. Correct oil level is between
the low (L) and high (H) marks on
the dipstick.
