The closed luggage com- partment lid must be flush with the surrounding auto body parts. x Always keep the luggage compartment lid closed while driving to help keep poisonous exhaust gas from being drawn into the vehicle. x Never open the luggage compartment lid when a luggage rack is installed and loaded. If, for example, there are bicycles on a carrier on the luggage compartment lid, it is possible that the lid will be difficult to open. An open luggage compartment lid may fall on its own because of the additional weight. If necessary, prop open the luggage compartment lid. Remove the weight from the luggage rack first. x Close and lock the luggage compartment lid and all doors when the vehicle is not in use. First, make sure that no one is left inside the vehicle. x Never leave your vehicle unattended or let children play around your vehicle, especially when the luggage compartment lid is open. A child could crawl into the vehicle and pull the luggage compartment lid shut, becoming trapped and unable to get out. A closed vehicle can become very hot or very cold, depending on the season. Particularly in the summer, heat build-up in the passenger and luggage compartment of a parked vehicle can result in temper- atures in the vehicle that are much higher than the outside temperatures. Temperatures can quickly reach levels that can cause unconsciousness and death, particularly to small chil- dren. x Never leave children or anyone who cannot help themselves behind in the vehicle. They may lock the vehicle with the vehicle key or the power locking button and lock themselves in. NOTICE Before opening or closing the luggage compartment lid, make sure there is enough room to do so, for example, when the vehicle is in a garage. x Do not place any objects on the rear spoiler. The rear spoiler could be damaged .
