compartment. In the event of sudden
braking, sudden swerving or a colli-
sion, they are susceptible to death or
serious injury.

Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may result in death or
serious injury.
●Do not allow children to play in the lug-
gage compartment.
If a child is accidentally locked in the
luggage compartment, they could
have heat exhaustion or other injuries.
●Do not allow a child to open or close
the back door.

move unexpectedly, or cause the
child’s hands, arms, head, or neck to be
caught by the closing back door.

Observe the following precautions.
Failure to do so may cause parts of the
body to be caught, resulting in death or
serious injury.
●Remove any heavy loads, such as snow
