WA R N I N GMake sure all doors are tightly closed and locked while driving.• Locked doors, in co
mbination with the
use of seat belts, can help reduce the riskof ejection in
an accident.
• Locked doors can help keep passengers, especially small children, from opening doors and falling out
of moving vehicles.

prevent outsiders
from gaining access to your vehicle when you slow down or come to a stop.
 Lock your vehicle when
ever you leave it.
