■ Always take all children and pets with you or leave a responsible per-
son with them
Leaving a child or a pet unattended in a parked vehicle is dangerous. In hot
weather, temperatures inside a vehicle can become high enough to cause
brain damage or even death.
■ Do not leave the key in your vehicle with children and keep them in a
place where your children will not find or play with them
Leaving children in a vehicle with the key is dangerous. This could result in
someone being badly injured or even killed.
■ Keep all doors locked when driving
Unlocked doors in a moving vehicle are dangerous. Passengers can fall out
if a door is accidentally opened and can more easily be thrown out in an
accident.
■ Always close all the windows, lock the doors and take the key with you
when leaving your vehicle unattended
Leaving your vehicle unlocked is dangerous as children could lock them-
selves in a hot vehicle, which could result in death. Also, a vehicle left
unlocked becomes an easy target for thieves and intruders.
■ After closing the doors, always verify that they are securely closed
Doors not securely closed are dangerous, if the vehicle is driven with a door
not securely closed, the door could open unexpectedly resulting in an acci-
dent.
■ Always confirm the safety around the vehicle before opening a door
Suddenly opening a door is dangerous.
A passing vehicle or a pedestrian could be hit and cause an accident.
■ When opening or closing a door
Always confirm the conditions around the vehicle before opening/closing
the doors and use caution during strong winds or when parked on an
incline. Not being aware of the conditions around the vehicle is dangerous
because fingers could get caught in the door or a passing pedestrian could
be hit, resulting in an unexpected accident or injury.
