E00301402461WARNINGlThe  luggage  compartment  was  not  de-
signed  for  people  to  ride  in  it.  Do  not  let
passengers  ride  in  or  let  children  play  in
the luggage compartment. Riding or play- ing  in  the  luggage  compartment  could  re-
sult in a serious accident.
l It  is  dangerous  to  drive  with  the  tailgate
open,  since  carbon  monoxide  (CO)  gas
contained  in  engine  exhaust  gases  can  en- ter the cabin.
You  cannot  see  or  smell  CO.  It  can  cause
unconsciousness and even death.
In  addition,  if  the  tailgate  opens  when
driving,  luggage  could  fall  onto  the  road and cause an accident.
l When  opening  and  closing  the  tailgate,
make  sure  that  there  are  no  people  near-
by  and  that  there  is  sufficient  space  be-
hind  and  above  the  vehicle.  In  addition, be  careful  not  to  hit  your  head  or  pinch
your hands, neck, etc.WARNINGl When there is a build up of snow or ice, it
should  be  removed  before  opening  the tailgate.  If  you  open  the  tailgate  without
removing  it,  there  is  a  possibility  that  the tailgate  may  close  suddenly  due  to  theweight of that snow or ice.
l When  you  open  the  tailgate  make  sure
that  the  tailgate  is  opened  fully  and  re- mains fully open. If you only open the tail-
gate  halfway  there  is  a  risk  that  the  tail- gate may drop and slam shut. If you open
the  tailgate  while  your  vehicle  is  parked on  an  incline  it  is  more  difficult  to  do  so than  on  the  flat  and  also  it  may  drop  and
slam shut.CAUTIONl Do  not  stand  behind  the  exhaust  pipe  when
loading  and  unloading  luggage.  The  heat
from the exhaust could lead to burns.
l To  avoid  damage  to  the  tailgate,  make  sure
the  area  above  and  behind  the  tailgate  is
clear before opening it.NOTEl Locking/unlocking  with  the  central  door
