nobody around the power back win-
dow. You must also make sure the
heads, hands and other parts of the
bodies of all occupants are kept
completely inside the vehicle. If
someone’s neck, head or hands get
caught in a closing window, it
could result in death or serious se-
rious injury. When anyone closes
the power back window, make sure
he or she operates the window
safely.
When small children are in the ve-
hicle, never let them use the power
back window switch without super-
vision.

Never leave anyone (particularly a
small child) alone in your vehicle,
especially with the ignition key still
inserted. Otherwise, he/she could
use the power back window switch
and get trapped in a window. Unat-
tended person (particularly a small
child) can be involved in a serious

driving. This not only keeps the
luggage from being thrown out but
also prevents exhaust gases from
entering the vehicle.
