WARNING
Unattended Children and Pets:
Leaving a child or an animal
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. Always take all
children and animals with you or
leave a responsible person with them.
Keys and Children:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the
key is dangerous. This could result in
someone being badly injured or even
killed. They could play with power
windows or other controls, or even
make the vehicle move. Don't leave the
keys in your vehicle with children and
keep them in a place where your
children will not find or play with
them.
Unlocked Doors:
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. So keep all doors locked
when driving.
NOTE
Always remove the key from the
ignition switch, close all windows, and
lock all doors and the liftgate when
leaving your vehicle unattended. This
discourages intruders and thieves.

WARNING
Operating Power Sliding Doors:
Opening or closing the power sliding
doors while not watching the doors
move is dangerous. People or animals
could be injured when the doors open
along the rear sides and back to the
rear fender, or in closing. Because of
unseen obstacles and the jam-safe

completely and, if left unnoticed, could
result in serious injury or death if an

Always be sure that the doorway and
rear fender area is clear before

WARNING
Moving the Vehicle while Closing
Power Sliding Doors:
Shifting out of Park (P) while the
doors are moving is dangerous. The
doors will not close completely and
this could result in serious injury or
death if an occupant were to fall out of

will also not have full protection in a
collision. Always be sure the doors
completely close before you shift into
gear and move the vehicle.
Children and the Power Sliding Door
Switches:
Allowing children to operate the

serious injury. Make sure that the
door has completely opened before
exiting or entering the vehicle on a
steep downward slope.
NOTE
lDo not apply unnecessary force to
the doors when they are opening/
closing electrically. Unnecessary

the doors may not operate. When the
doors cannot be opened/closed
electrically, press the power sliding
doors main switch to the OFF
