Failure to do so may result in death or serious injury. ■When the vehicle is stopped ●Do not race the engine. If the vehicle is in any gear other than P or N, the vehicle may accelerate suddenly and unexpectedly, causing an accident. ●In order to prevent accidents due to the vehicle rolling away, always keep depressing the brake pedal while the engine is running, and apply the parking brake as neces- sary. ●If the vehicle is stopped on an incline, in order to prevent accidents caused by the vehicle rolling forward or backward, alwys daepress the brake pedal and securely apply the parking brake as needed. ●Avoid revving or racing the engine. Running the engine at high speed while the vehi- cle is stopped may cause the exhaust system to overheat, which could result in a fire if combustible material is nearby. ■When the vehicle is parked ●Do not leave glasses, cigarette lighters, spray cans, or soft drink cans in the vehicle when it is in the sun. Doing so may result in the following: Gas may leak from a cigarette lighter or spray can, and may lead to a fire. The temperature inside the vehicle may cause the plastic lenses and plastic mate- rial of glasses to deform or crack. Soft drink cans may fracture, causing the contents to spray over the interior of the vehicle, and may also cause a short circuit in the vehicle’s electrical components. ●Do not leave cigarette lighters in the vehicle. If a cigarette lighter is in a place such as the glove box or on the floor, it may be lit accidentally when luggage is loaded or the seat is adjusted, causing a fire. ●Do not attach adhesive discs to the windshield or windows. Do not place containers such as air fresheners on the instrument panel or dashboard. Adhesive discs or con- tainers may act as lenses, causing a fire in the vehicle. ●Do not leave a door or window open if the curved glass is coated with a metallized film such as a silver-colored one. Reflected sunlight may cause the glass to act as a lens, causing a fire. ●Always apply the parking brake, shift the shift lever to P, stop the engine and lock the vehicle. Do not leave the vehicle unattended while the engine is running. ●Do not touch the exhaust pipes while the engine is running or immediately after turn- ing the engine off. Doing so may cause burns.
