WARNING - Ignition key
• Leaving children unattended
in a vehicle with the ignition
key is dangerous even if the
key is not in the ignition.
Children copy adults and they
could place the key in the igni-
tion. The ignition key would
enable children to operate
power windows or other con-
trols, or even make the vehicle
move, which could result in
serious bodily injury or even
death. Never leave the keys in
your vehicle with unsuper-
vised children.

sive current in the wiring.
