WARNING - Unattended
Children
An enclosed vehicle can
become extremely hot, causing
death or severe injury to unat-
tended children or animals who
cannot escape the vehicle.
Furthermore, children might
operate features of the vehicle
that could injure them, or they
could encounter other harm,
possibly from someone gaining
entry to the vehicle. Never leave
children or animals unattended
in your vehicle.
CAUTION
The doors should always be
fully closed and locked while
the vehicle is in motion to pre-
vent accidental opening of the
door.
Locked doors will also discour-
age potential intruders when
the vehicle stops or slows.
WARNING
- Rear Door Locks
If children accidentally open the
rear doors while the vehicle is
in motion, the child could fall
out and be seriously injured. To
prevent a child from opening
the rear doors from the inside,
the rear door safety locks
should be used whenever chil-
dren are in the vehicle.
