WARNING
Always keep the doors tightly closed and

is a greater risk of someone being thrown
from the vehicle in an accident.
Liftgate
WARNING
The luggage compartment was not
designed for people to ride in it. Do not let
passengers ride in or let children play in
the luggage compartment. Riding or play-
ing in the luggage compartment could
result in a serious accident or injury.
Before driving, be sure that the liftgate is
securely closed. It is dangerous to drive
with the liftgate open since carbon monox-
ide (CO) gas contained in engine exhaust
gases can enter the passenger compart-
ment.
CO is an invisible, odorless gas that can
cause unconsciousness and even death.
In addition, if the liftgate opens while
driving, luggage could fall onto the road
and cause an accident.
When opening and closing the liftgate,
make sure that there are no people nearby
and be careful not to hit your head or
pinch your hands, neck, etc.
If snow or ice has accumulated on the lift-
gate, remove it before opening the liftgate.
Otherwise the liftgate may abruptly close
due to the weight of the snow or ice.
When opening the liftgate, always fully
open it. A partially opened liftgate can
unexpectedly close due to its own weight.
When the vehicle is parked on a slope, the
effort required to open or close the liftgate
may be greater or less than expected.
The liftgate may also open or close more
quickly.
CAUTION
Do not stand behind the exhaust pipe when
loading and unloading luggage. Heat from
the exhaust could lead to burns.
To avoid damage to the liftgate, make sure
that area above and behind the liftgate is
clear before opening it.
WARNING
NOTE
Locking and unlocking the doors by using
power door locks (driver and front passenger
side), keyless entry system, or F.A.S.T.-key
operation (vehicles equipped with the
F.A.S.T.-key) also locks and unlocks the lift-
gate.
To open
To open from outside the vehicle
CAUTION
Make sure there is no one standing nearby
when opening the liftgate.
