Lift gate
WARNING
► Always be sure the lift gate has been
closed securely to prevent it from opening
while driving.
► Do not drive with the lift gate open. This
could allow dangerous exhaust gases to
be drawn into the vehicle. See “Exhaust
gas (carbon monoxide)” in the “5.
Starting and driving” section of this
manual.
► Do not leave children unattended inside
the vehicle. They could unknowingly
activate switches or controls. Unattended
children could become involved
in serious accidents.
► Always be sure that hands and feet are
clear of the door frame to avoid injury
while closing the lift gate.
