become high enough to cause brain
damage or even death. Always take all
children and animals with you or
leave a responsible person with them.

keys in your vehicle with children and
keep them in a place where your
children will not find or play with
them.

are dangerous. Passengers can fall out
if a door is accidentally opened and

ignition switch, close all windows, and
lock all doors and the trunk lid/liftgate/
