To prevent an accident
Observe the following precautions while driving the vehicle.
Failure to do so may result in a door opening and an occupant falling out,
resulting in death or serious injury.

●

Ensure that all doors are properly closed.

●

Do not pull the inside handle of the doors while driving.
Be especially careful for the front doors, as the doors may be opened
even if the inside lock buttons are in locked position.

●

Set the rear door child-protector locks when children are seated in the rear
seats.

■

When opening or closing a door
Check the surroundings of the vehicle such as whether the vehicle is on an
incline, whether there is enough space for a door to open and whether a
strong wind is blowing. 
When opening or closing the door, hold the door handle tightly to prepare
for any unpredictable movement.
