Running the Engine While Parked

It is better not to park with the engine running. But if you

ever have to, here are some things to know.

{CAUTION:

Idling the engine with the climate control

system off could allow dangerous exhaust into

your vehicle. See the earlier caution under

Engine Exhaust on page 2-49.

Also, idling in a closed-in place can let deadly

carbon monoxide (CO) into your vehicle even if

the climate control fan is at the highest setting.

One place this can happen is a garage.

Exhaust — with CO — can come in easily.

NEVER park in a garage with the engine

running.

Another closed-in place can be a blizzard. See

Winter Driving on page 4-30.

{CAUTION:

It can be dangerous to get out of your vehicle

if the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P) with

the parking brake ﬁrmly set. Your vehicle can

roll. Do not leave your vehicle when the engine

is running unless you have to. If you have left

the engine running, the vehicle can move

suddenly. You or others could be injured. To

be sure your vehicle will not move, even when

you are on fairly level ground, always set the

parking brake and move the shift lever to

PARK (P).

{CAUTION:

Four-wheel drive vehicles with the transfer

case in NEUTRAL will allow the vehicle to roll,

even if the shift lever is in PARK (P). So, be

sure the transfer case is in a drive gear — not

in NEUTRAL. Always set the parking brake.
