WA R N I N G Always keep the door
s tightly closed and

opened by a passen-
ger, especially by

WA R N I N G It is dangerous to drive with the liftgate open since carbon mo
noxide (CO) gas con-
tained in engine exhaust gases can enter the passenger compartment.CO is an invisible,
odorless gas that can
cause unconsciousness and even death. When opening and closing the liftgate, make sure that there are no people nearby and be careful not to hit your head or pinch your hands, neck, etc.
 If snow or ice has ac
cumulated on the lift-
gate, remove it before
opening the liftgate.
Otherwise the liftgate may abruptly closedue to the weight of the snow or ice. When opening the lift
gate, always fully
open it. A partially opened liftgate can unexpectedly close due to its own weight. When the vehicle is parked on a slope, the effort required to open or close the liftgate may be greater or less than expected.The liftgate may also open or close more quickly.CAUTION Do not stand behind the exhaust pipe when loading and unloading
luggage. Heat from
the exhaust could lead to burns. To avoid damage to th
e liftgate, make sure
that area above and
behind the liftgate is
clear before opening it.NOTE
 Locking and unlocking the doors by using power door locks (driver and front passenger side), keyless entry system, or F.A.S.T.-key operation (vehicles equipped with theF.A.S.T.-key) also locks and unlocks the lift- gate.WA R N I N G
