WARNING
• For emergencies, be fully
aware of the location of the
emergency liftgate safety
release lever in the vehicle
and how to open the liftgate if
you are accidentally locked in
the luggage compartment.
• No one should be allowed to
occupy the luggage compart-
ment of the vehicle at any time.
The luggage compartment is a
very dangerous location in the
event of a crash.
• Use the release lever for
emergencies only. Use with
extreme caution, especially
while the vehicle is in motion.
WARNING
NEVER allow anyone to occupy
the liftgate of the vehicle at any
time. If the liftgate is partially or
totally latched and the person is
unable to get out, serious injury
or death could occur due to lack
of ventilation, exhaust fumes
and rapid heat build-up, or
because of exposure to cold
weather conditions. The liftgate
is also a highly dangerous loca-
tion in the event of a crash
because it is not a protected
occupant space but is a part of
the vehicle’s crush zone.
