NOTE

Locking and unlocking the doors by using power door
locks (driver and front passenger side), keyless entry sys-
tem (if so equipped), or F.A.S.T.-key (if so equipped) also
locks and unlocks the tailgate.
WA R N I N G
!

Always keep the doors tightly closed and locked
when driving. An unlocked door may be acciden-
tally opened by a passenger, especially by a child
who could fall out. Also, if the doors are not locked,
there is a greater risk of someone being thrown from
the vehicle in an accident.
WA R N I N G
!

It is dangerous to drive with the tailgate (upper gate
and lower gate) open since carbon monoxide (CO)
gas can enter the passenger compartment.
CO is an invisible, odorless gas that can cause
unconsciousness and even death.


When opening and closing the tailgate, make sure
that there are no people nearby and be careful not to
hit your head or pinch your hands, neck, etc.CAUTION
!

Do not stand behind the exhaust pipe when loading
and unloading luggage. Heat from the exhaust could
lead to burns.

Driving safety

4 Driving, alcohol and drugs
N00628900049
Drunk driving is one of the most frequent causes of accidents.
Your driving ability can be seriously impaired even with blood
alcohol levels far below the legal minimum. If you have been
drinking, don’t drive. Ride with a designated non-drinking
driver, call a cab or a friend, or use public transportation.
Drinking coffee or taking a cold shower will not make you
sober.
Similarly, prescription and nonprescription drugs affect your
alertness, perception and reaction time. Consult with your doc-
tor or pharmacist before driving while under the influence of
any of these medications.
Vehicle preparation before driving
N00629000470
For a safer and more enjoyable trip, always check for the fol-
lowing:Seat belts and seats

Before starting the vehicle, make certain that you and all
passengers are seated and wearing their seat belts properly
(with children in the rear seat, in appropriate restraints),
and that all the doors and flap-fold tailgate are locked.


Move the driver’s seat as far backward as possible, while
still keeping good visibility, and good control of the steer-
ing wheel, brakes, accelerator, and controls. Check the
instrument panel indicators and multi-information display
for any possible problem.


In the same way, the front passenger seat should also be
moved as far back as possible.


Make sure that infants and small children are properly
restrained in accordance with all laws and regulations.
WA R N I N G
!

NEVER DRINK AND DRIVE.
Your perceptions are less accurate, your reflexes are
slower and your judgment is impaired.

the positive (+) cable to the negative (-) terminal.
Otherwise sparks can make the battery explode.CAUTION

Make sure that the jumper cable will not be caught
in the cooling fan or other moving parts in the

WA R N I N G
!

Charging your battery while it is still in your vehicle
might cause the battery to catch fire and explode. If
you have to charge it while in the vehicle, disconnect
the negative (-) terminal.


Keep sparks, cigarettes, and flames away from the
battery because the battery could explode.


Keep your work area well vented when charging or
using the battery in an enclosed space.


Remove all the caps before charging the battery.


Electrolyte (battery acid) is made of corrosive
diluted sulfuric acid. If electrolyte comes in contact
with your hands, eyes, clothes, or the painted sur-
face of your vehicle, thoroughly flush with water. If
electrolyte gets in your eyes, flush them immediately
and thoroughly with water, and get prompt medical
attention.


Always wear protective clothing and goggles when
working near the battery.


Keep the battery out of the reach of children.
