WARNING
 Always keep the doors tightly closed and
locked when driving. An unlocked door
may be accidentally opened by a passen-
ger, especially by a child who could fall
out. Also, if the doors are not locked, there
is a greater risk of someone being thrown
from the vehicle in an accident.

Liftgate

WARNING
 It is dangerous to drive with the liftgate
open since carbon monoxide (CO) gas can
enter the passenger compartment.
CO is an invisible, odorless gas that can
cause unconsciousness and even death.
 When opening and closing the liftgate,
make sure that there are no people nearby
and be careful not to hit your head or
pinch your hands, neck, etc.
CAUTION
 Do not stand behind the exhaust pipe when
loading and unloading luggage. Heat from
the exhaust could lead to burns.
NOTE
 Locking and unlocking the doors by using
the power door lock switch, the keyless entry
system or the F.A.S.T.-key operation also
locks and unlocks the liftgate. (if so
equipped)
