WARNING

If passengers must remain in the vehicle while it is very hot or outside is cold, there is a risk of injury or danger to life. Do not lock the vehicle from the outside when passengers are inside the vehicle.

WARNING

• Securely close your door before driving. Failure to fully close the door may cause it to open while the vehicle is in operation.
• Keep your body clear of the closing door to prevent injury.

CAUTION

Do not open and close the door repeatedly or with excessive force. Such action may damage the vehicle door.
