Leaving children without
adult supervision is illegal in most
states and Canadian provinces,
and can be very hazardous.
For example, infants and small
childrenleftinavehicleonahot
day can die f rom heatstroke. A
child lef t alone with the key in the
ignition switch can accidentally set
the vehicle in motion, possibly
injuring themselves or others. Children who play in vehicles
can accidentally get trapped inside.
Teach your children not to play in
or around vehicles.
Even very young
children learn how to unlock
vehicle doors, turn on the ignition
switch, and open the tailgate or
hatch glass, which can lead to
accidental injury or death.
This can prevent
children f rom accidentally f alling
out (see page ). 73

hat ch when your vehicle is not inuse.
K eep vehicle keys/remot etransmitters out of the reach ofchildren.
