WARNING
• Always turn the vehicle OFF and engage the parking brake prior to exiting the vehicle
or it will roll and may cause damage or injury.
• Leaving children unattended in a vehicle is dangerous. Children should be warned not
to touch the parking brake or the shifter lever. Don’t leave the keys in the ignition. A
child could operate controls or move the vehicle.
• Be sure the parking brake is fully disengaged before driving. Failure to do so can lead
to brake problems due to excessive heating of the rear brakes.
