doors before you drive as well as when you park
and leave the vehicle.
• When leaving the vehicle, always remove the
Key Fob from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
Unsupervised use of vehicle equipment may
cause severe personal injuries or death.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children
to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a
number of reasons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake, brake
pedal or the shift lever.

operate. If a door is open, and the ignition is in the
ACC or ON/RUN position, a chime will sound as a
