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.

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.

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
lock switch, the keyless entry system, or the
