Boot Lid
WARNING
Never allow a person to ride in the
boot:
Allowing a person to ride in the boot
is dangerous. The person in the boot
could be seriously injured or killed
during sudden braking or a collision.
Do not drive with the boot lid open:
Exhaust gas in the cabin of a vehicle
is dangerous. An open boot lid in a
moving vehicle will cause exhaust gas
to be drawn into the cabin. This gas
contains CO (carbon monoxide), which
is colourless, odourless, and highly
poisonous, and it can cause loss of
consciousness and death. Moreover, an
open boot lid could cause occupants to
fall out in an accident.
CAUTION
  Before opening the boot lid, remove
any snow and ice accumulation on it.
Otherwise, the boot lid could close
under the weight of the snow and ice
resulting in injury.
  Be careful when opening/closing
the boot lid during strong winds. If
a strong gust blows against the boot
lid, it could close suddenly resulting
in injury.
  Fully open the boot lid and make
sure that it stays open. If the boot
lid is only opened partially, it could
slam shut by vibration or wind gusts
resulting in injury.
  When loading or unloading luggage
in the boot, turn off the engine.
Otherwise, you could get burned by
the heat of the exhaust gas.
