brake should always be applied whenever the driver is
not in the vehicle.

WARNING!

Never use the PARK position on an automatic

transmission as a substitute for the parking brake.
Always apply the parking brake fully when
parked to guard against vehicle movement and
possible injury or damage.

Never leave children alone in a vehicle. Leaving

unattended children in a vehicle is dangerous for a
number of reasons. A child or others could be
seriously or fatally injured.

Do not leave the key in the ignition. A child could

operate power windows, other controls, or move
the vehicle.

WARNING! (Continued)

Be sure the parking brake is fully disengaged

before driving; failure to do so can lead to brake
failure and a collision.

Always fully apply the parking brake when leav-

ing your vehicle or it may roll and cause damage or
injury. Also, be certain to leave an automatic
transmission in PARK, a manual transmission in
REVERSE or first gear. Failure to do so may cause
the vehicle to roll and cause damage or injury.

CAUTION!

If the “Brake Warning Light” remains on with the
parking brake released, a brake system malfunction
is indicated. Have the brake system serviced by an
authorized dealer immediately.
