●
Closing the rear lid without observing and
ensuring it is clear could cause serious injury
to you and to third parties. Make sure that no
one is in the path of the rear lid.
●
Never drive with the rear lid open or half-
closed, exhaust gases may penetrate into
the interior of the vehicle. Danger of poison-
ing!
●
Never open the rear lid if there is cargo,
e.g. bicycles, attached to it. The rear lid may
close by itself due to the additional weight. If
necessary, remove the cargo first or hold the
rear lid.
●
Never leave the vehicle unattended or al-
low children to play inside or next to it, espe-
cially if the rear lid is open. Children could
enter the luggage compartment, close the
rear lid and become trapped. A locked vehi-
cle can reach extremely high and low tem-
peratures, depending on the time of year,
thus causing serious injuries, illness or even
death.
