Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children
to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for
a number of reasons. A child or others could
be seriously or fatally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal
or the transmission range buttons.
●
Do not leave the ignition key in or near the vehicle
(or in a location accessible to children). A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move the

parking brake and move the transmission to position P
(Park) if you wish to exit the car.

practices that limit your response to changing traffic
or road conditions. You might lose control of the
vehicle and have a collision.
CAUTION!
Towing the vehicle, coasting, or driving for any other
reason with the transmission in NEUTRAL can cause
severe transmission damage. Refer to "Recreational
Towing" in "Starting And Operating" and "Towing A
