the SmartKey with you and lock the vehicle.
Do not leave children unattended in the

access to a vehicle could result in an accident
and/or serious personal injury. The children
could:

and severity of an accident:
Rinjure themselves on parts of the vehicle
Rbe seriously or fatally injured through
excessive exposure to extreme heat or cold
Rinjure themselves or cause an accident with

accelerates rapidly in a longitudinal
direction during the initial stages of the
impact
Rin the event of a side impact, on the side
opposite the impact if the vehicle
decelerates or accelerates rapidly in a
lateral direction
Rin certain situations if the vehicle overturns

provide additional protection
If the Emergency Tensioning Devices (ETDs)
are triggered, you will hear a bang, and a small
amount of powder may also be released. Only
in rare cases will the bang affect your hearing.

persons or get out of the vehicle and injure
themselves or be injured by following traffic.

direct sunlight. The child restraint system's
metal parts, for example, could become very
hot, and the child could be burned on these
parts.
