Driving safety and protection against injury
cannot be fully ensured. However, we recom-
mend that you pay extra attention to the fol-
lowing:
Before starting the vehicle, make sure that
you and your passengers have fastened your
seat belts.
 Never leave your vehicle unattended with
the key and children inside the vehicle.
Children may play with the driving con-
trols and this could lead to an accident.
 Make sure that infants and small children
are properly restrained in accordance with
the laws and regulations, and for maxi-
mum protection in case of an accident.
 Prevent children from playing in the lug-
gage compartment. It is quite dangerous
to allow them to play there while the vehi-
cle is moving.
When loading luggage, be careful not to load
above the height of seats. This is dangerous
not only because rearward vision will be
obstructed, but also the luggage may be pro-
jected into the passenger compartment under
hard braking.

plete stop, fully apply the parking brake suffi-
ciently to hold the vehicle.
