your seat belt, and if present, instruct all other
occupants to buckle their seat belts.
WARNING!
•Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or

ing children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child
or others could be seriously or fatally in-
jured. Children should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the
shift lever.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, and do not leave a vehicle
equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go in the
ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could op-
erate power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.

ing gear.
CAUTION!

come to a complete stop.
• Shift into or out of REVERSE only after the
vehicle has come to a complete stop and
