WARNING
7)Always take all children and pets with
you or leave a responsible person with
them: leaving a child or a pet unattended in
a parked vehicle is dangerous. In hot
weather, temperatures inside a vehicle can
become high enough to cause brain
damage or even death.8)Do not leave the key in your vehicle with
children and keep them in a place where
your children will not find or play with them:
leaving children in a vehicle with the key is
dangerous. This could result in someone
being badly injured or even killed.
9)Always close both the windows and
convertible top, lock the doors and take the
key with you when leaving your vehicle
unattended: leaving your vehicle unlocked
is dangerous as children could lock
themselves in a hot vehicle, which could
result in death. Also, a vehicle left unlocked
becomes an easy target for thieves and
intruders.
10)After closing the doors, always verify
that they are securely closed: doors not
securely closed are dangerous, if the
vehicle is driven with a door not securely
closed, the door could open unexpectedly
resulting in an accident.
11)Always confirm the safety around the
vehicle before opening a door: suddenly
opening a door is dangerous. A passing
vehicle or a pedestrian could be hit and
cause an accident.
12)Always confirm the conditions around
the vehicle before opening/closing the
doors and use caution during strong winds
or when parked on an incline. Not being
aware of the conditions around the vehicle
is dangerous because fingers could get
caught in the door or a passing pedestrian
could be hit, resulting in an unexpected
accident or injury.13)If the power window does not go up or
down automatically because the battery is
dead, slowly open/close the power window
while pressing the glass inward. Otherwise,
the power window may contact the
convertible top and the door cannot be
opened/closed resulting in damage to the
window.
14)Never activate the double locking
system with passengers, especially
children, still inside the vehicle: activating
the system with passengers, especially
children, still inside the vehicle is
dangerous. The passengers cannot open
the doors from inside. They would be
trapped and subjected to extreme
temperatures. This could result in serious
injuries or even death.
