WARNING (continued )
•
Never park the vehicle where it can come in contact with dry
grass, spilled fuel or any other flammable materials .
•
Never allow anyone - especially small children - to remain in the
vehicle when it is locked. Locked doors make it more difficult for
rescuers to access the passenger compartment in the event of an
emergency. Danger to life!
•
Never leave children unsupervised in the vehicle. Children
could release the parking brake or move the gearshift lever out of
gear. The vehicle could start to roll away and cause an accident.
•
No matter what the season is, the temperature in a parked
vehicle can reach dangerous levels. •
