BMW 2010 ActiveHybrid X6 Manual Do Proprietário

Do not run the combustion engine in
enclosed spaces; otherwise, the inhala-

tion of toxic exhaust gases can cause loss of
consciousness and death. The exhaust gases
contain carbon monoxide, an odorless and col-
orless, but highly toxic gas.
Never leave the vehicle unattended with the
combustion engine running; such a vehicle rep-
resents a potential safety hazard.
