            WARNING 
  Always take all children and pets with 
you or leave a responsible person with 
them:
  Leaving a child or a pet unattended in 
a parked vehicle is dangerous. In hot 
weather, temperatures inside a vehicle 
can become high enough to cause 
brain damage or even death.
  
  Do not leave the key in your vehicle with 
children and keep them in a place where 
your children will not fi  nd or play with 
them:
  Leaving children in a vehicle with the 
key is dangerous. This could result in 
someone being badly injured or even 
killed. 
  
  Keep all doors locked when driving:
  Unlocked doors in a moving vehicle 
are dangerous. Passengers can fall out 
if a door is accidentally opened and 
can more easily be thrown out in an 
accident.
  
  Always close all the windows and 
moonroof, lock the doors and the 
liftgate and take the key with you when 
leaving your vehicle unattended:
  Leaving your vehicle unlocked is 
dangerous as children could lock 
themselves in a hot vehicle, which 
could result in death. Also, a vehicle left 
unlocked becomes an easy target for 
thieves and intruders.
    After closing the doors and the liftgate, 
always verify that they are securely 
closed:
  Doors and the liftgate not securely 
closed are dangerous, if the vehicle 
is driven with a door and the liftgate 
not securely closed, the door and the 
liftgate could open unexpectedly 
resulting in an accident.
  
  Always  confi  rm the safety around the 
vehicle before opening a door and the 
liftgate:
  Suddenly opening a door and the 
liftgate is dangerous. A passing vehicle 
or a pedestrian could be hit and cause 
an accident.
   
  CAUTION 
    Always  confi  rm  the  conditions  around 
the vehicle before opening/closing 
the doors and the liftgate and use 
caution during strong winds or when 
parked on an incline. Not being aware 
of the conditions around the vehicle 
is dangerous because fi  ngers could 
get caught in the door and the liftgate 
or a passing pedestrian could be hit, 
resulting in an unexpected accident or 
injury.
