■ DOORS

CAUTION
Unlocked doors can be
dangerous.
• Passengers - especially
children - can easily open the
doors and fall out of a moving
vehicle if the doors are left
unlocked. When a door is
locked, the handle won't
open it.
• Young children who get into
unlocked vehicles may be
unable to get out. A child
could be overcome by
extreme heat and could suffer
permanent injuries or even
death from heat stroke.
Always lock your vehicle
whenever you leave it.

(Continued)
• If the doors are unlocked,
your chances of being thrown
out of the vehicle in a crash
are increased. Wear your seat
belts properly and lock the
doors whenever you drive.
• Locking your doors when you
drive can help prevent
unwanted outsiders from
entering your vehicle when
you slow down or stop the
vehicle.
