Serious injuries can occur if the tailgate is closed incorrectly or without due care and attention.

Never leave children playing unattended in or around the vehicle, especially when the tailgate is open. Children could climb into the luggage

cold, according to season. This could cause serious injuries or illness, or even have fatal consequences.

Before closing the tailgate, check that the vehicle key is not in the luggage compartment.
