WARNING
Unlocked
vehicles
Leaving your vehicle unlocked
can invite theft or possible harm
to you or others from someone
hiding in your vehicle whilst you
are gone. Always remove the
ignition key, engage the parking
brake, close all windows and
lock all doors when leaving your
vehicle unattended.
WARNING
- Unattended
children
An enclosed vehicle can become
extremely hot, causing death or
severe injury to unattended chil-
dren or animals who cannot
escape the vehicle. Furthermore,
children might operate features
of the vehicle that could injure
them, or they could encounter
other harm, possibly from some-
one gaining entry to the vehicle.
Never leave children or animals
unattended in your vehicle.
Deadlocks (if equipped)
Some vehicles are equipped with a
deadlock system. Deadlocks prevent
opening of a door from either inside
or outside the vehicle once the dead-
locks have been activated providing
an additional measure of vehicle
security.
To lock the vehicle using the dead-
lock function, the doors must be
locked by using the transmitter or
smart key. To unlock the vehicle, the
transmitter or smart key must be
used again.
WARNING
Do not lock the doors with the
transmitter or the smart key
with anybody left in the vehicle.
The passenger in the vehicle
cannot unlock the doors with
the door lock button. For exam-
ple, if the door is locked with
the transmitter, the passenger
in the vehicle cannot unlock the
door without the transmitter.
