WARNING
Parking improperly can cause serious personal injury.
Never remove the key from the ignition switch while the vehi-
cle is moving or rolling to a stop. The steering wheel will lock
and you will not be able to steer or control the vehicle.
Never park the vehicle where the hot exhaust system or cata-
lytic converter could ignite flammable materials, such as brush,
leaves, dry grass, spilled fuel, etc.
Always apply the electronic parking brake when parking your
vehicle.
Improper use of the electronic parking brake can seriously
injure you and your passengers.
Never use the parking brake to slow down the vehicle when it
is moving, except in an emergency. The stopping distance is
much longer because only the rear wheels are braked. Always
use the foot brake to stop the vehicle.
Never activate the throttle manually from the engine com-
partment when the engine is running and the automatic trans-
mission is in gear. The vehicle will start to move as soon as the
engine speed increases even if the parking brake is on.
Never leave children or anyone who cannot help themselves
behind in the vehicle. They could switch off the parking brake
and move the gear selector lever or gear shift, which could
cause the vehicle to start moving. This can lead to a crash and
serious personal injuries.
Always take the key with you when you leave the vehicle. The
engine can be started and vehicle systems such as the power
windows can be operated, leading to serious personal injury.
Never leave children, disabled persons, or anyone who can-
not help themselves in the vehicle. The doors can be locked
with the remote control vehicle key, trapping passengers in the
vehicle in an emergency. For example, depending on the time
of year, people trapped in the vehicle can be exposed to very
high or very low temperatures.
