It is dangerous to move the shift lever out of PARK

or NEUTRAL if the engine speed is higher than
idle speed. If your foot is not firmly pressing the
brake pedal, the vehicle could accelerate quickly

your foot is firmly pressing the brake pedal.

When leaving the vehicle, always remove the key

Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with

be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a
number of reasons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal
or the shift lever.

Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle (or

in a location accessible to children), and do not
leave Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the ACC or ON/
RUN position. A child could operate power win-
dows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
