STARTING THE ENGINE

Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat,
adjust the inside and outside mirrors, fasten

occupants to buckle their seat belts.
WARNING!
When exiting the vehicle, always make sure
the ignition is in OFF mode, remove the key

Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle. Leaving

injured. Children should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the
transmission gear selector.
