Starting/stopping the engine
STARTING/STOPPING THE ENGINE
Never leave your vehicle with the key or remote control inside and never leave a child (or a pet) unsupervised, even
for a short while.
The reason for this is that the child may endanger himself or others by starting the engine, activating equipment such
as the window winders for example, or locking the doors.
Risk of serious injury.
Never switch off the ignition before the vehicle has stopped completely . Once the engine has stopped, the brake servo,
power assisted steering and passive safety equipment such as air bags will no longer operate.
The steering is locked when the key is removed.
