Improper use of the central locking system could lead to serious injury.
The central locking system locks all doors. Locking the vehicle from the inside can prevent accidental opening of the doors and unauthorised
persons from entering the vehicle. However, locked doors can delay assistance to passengers inside the vehicle in the event of an accident
or emergency.
Never leave children or people requiring assistance alone in the vehicle. All doors can be locked from the inside using the central locking
button. This may mean that people lock themselves in the vehicle. People locked in the vehicle may be subjected to very high or very low
temperatures.
Temperatures inside a locked vehicle may reach extremes of heat or cold, according to season. This can cause serious injuries and illness
or fatalities, especially to small children.
Never leave anyone inside a locked vehicle. People in the vehicle could become trapped in an emergency and may not be able to get
themselves to safety.
