HONDA 2005 CR-V - Owner's Manual - Manual (Page 39)

Leaving children without
adult supervision is illegal in most
states and Canadian provinces,
and can be very hazardous.
For example, infants and small
children left in a vehicle on a hot
day can die from heatstroke. A
child left alone with the key in the
ignition switch can accidentally set
the vehicle in motion, possibly
injuring themselves or others.
Children who play in vehicles
can accidentally get trapped inside.
Teach your children not to play in
or around vehicles.
Even very young
children learn how to unlock
vehicle doors, turn on the ignition
switch, and open the tailgate or
hatch glass, which can lead to
accidental injury or death.
This can prevent
children from accidentally falling
out (see page
). 73
Protecting Children General Guidelines
Do not leave children alone in a
vehicle.
Lock all doors, the tailgate and the
hatch when your vehicle is not in
use.
Keep vehicle keys/remote
transmitters out of the reach of
children.
Use the childproof door locks to
prevent children f rom opening the
rear doors.
