WARNING!
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowingchildren to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or
others could be severely injured or killed. Children should be warned not to touch the

or in a location accessible to children. A child could start the vehicle, operate power
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.

build-up may cause them to be severely injured or killed.
• Keep Key Fob transmitters away from children. Operation of the Remote Start System,
windows, door locks or other controls could cause serious injury or death.
