poisonous and contain carbon monoxide,
which can cause unconsciousness and may
even be fatal.
Diesel particulate filters can be damaged if
the wrong fuel is used, or if an engine misfire
occurs. Before starting the engine, you
should be aware of the precautions detailed
under the section 'Diesel Particulate Filters'.

(including the air conditioning) .

pressed.
