selves in a hot vehicle, which could result in death. Also, a vehicle left
unlocked becomes an easy target for thieves and intruders.
■ After closing the doors, always ver ify 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 acci-
dent.
■ 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.
■ When opening or closing a door
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.
