How can you reduce carbon monoxide risk while snowbound?
Correct answer: Clear the exhaust, open a window a little and run the engine briefly
Why
While snowbound, check for blocked or damaged exhaust equipment, keep a window slightly open and run the engine only briefly if needed for heat. ICBC suggests about five minutes each hour, with someone awake. If you feel dizzy or unusually drowsy while it runs, turn it off and get fresh air and help.
