unattended, you are advised to do the
following:
• Apply the electronic parkbrake and move the gear selector to the
Park ‘P’ position.
• Do not leave children or pets in the vehicle unattended.
• Do not leave luggage or valuables on display.
• Remove all keys, including remote transmitters, from the vehicle prior to
locking the doors, even when the

compartment, and lock all the doors.
• Park the vehicle where it can be seen. At night, park in a well-lit area.

consequently, your vehicle or

you would your wallet or purse, both
at home and away.
