WARNING

. Do not stop or park the vehicle over

flammable materials such as dry
grass, waste paper or rags. They
may ignite and cause a fire.

. Never leave the engine running

while the vehicle is unattended.

. Do not leave children unattended

inside the vehicle. They could un-
knowingly activate switches or con-
trols. Unattended children could
become involved in serious acci-

dents.

. Safe parking procedures require

that both the parking brake be
applied and the transmission placed
into the

&

P

position. Failure to do so

could cause the vehicle to move
unexpectedly or roll away and result
in an accident.

. Make sure the shift lever has been

pushed as far forward as it can go
and cannot be moved without de-
pressing the foot brake pedal.

. Follow the instructions below when

parking the vehicle to help prevent
the brake rotor and brake pads from
rusting together. Failure to follow
the instructions could cause the
rotor and pads to rust together. If
the rotor and pads rust together,
there may be a popping noise and
some vibration when the vehicle is
driven, a wheel may not roll cor-
rectly, or the brake pads could be
damaged. If the pads are damaged,
this may reduce the effectiveness of
the brake system which could cause
a collision, serious personal injury
or death.

1. Firmly apply the parking brake.

2. Move the shift lever to the

&

P

position.

3. To help prevent the vehicle from rolling into

the street when parked on a sloping drive

as illustrated.
