WARNING
To reduce the risk of SERIOUS INJURY or
DEATH, take the following precautions:

[NEVER allow children or any person
who is unfamiliar with the vehicle to
touch the ignition switch or related
parts. Unexpected and sudden
vehicle movement can occur.

[NEVER reach through the steering
wheel for the ignition switch, or any
other control, while the vehicle is in

WARNING

[NEVER turn the ignition switch to
the LOCK or ACC position while the
vehicle is in motion except in an

steering and brake systems. This may
lead to loss of directional control and
braking function, which could cause
an accident.

[Before leaving the driver's seat,
always make sure the shift button is
in 1st gear (for manual transmission
vehicle) or P (Park, for automatic
transmission vehicle) position, apply
the parking brake, and turn the
ignition switch to the LOCK position.
Unexpected vehicle movement may
occur if these precautions are not
followed.
