~1min read

Always come to a complete stop and keep depressing the brake pedal. Move the shift lever to the P (Park) position, apply the parking brake, and place the ignition key in the LOCK/OFF position. Take the key with you when leaving the vehicle.

WARNING

When you remain in the vehicle with the engine running, be careful not to depress the accelerator pedal for a long period of time. The engine or exhaust system may overheat and cause a fire.

Exhaust gas and the exhaust system are very hot. Keep away from exhaust system components.

Do not stop or park over flammable materials such as dry grass, paper, or leaves. They may ignite and cause a fire.
