WARNING

When the childproof lock is activated, the door cannot be opened from the inside.

Never leave children or disabled people alone in the vehicle when the doors are locked. This may mean that these people lock themselves in the vehicle. They could become trapped in the vehicle in an emergency and will not be able to get themselves to safety. Persons locked in the vehicle may be subjected to very high or very low temperatures.

Depending on the time of year, a locked vehicle can be subjected to very high or very low temperatures. This could cause serious injuries and illness or fatalities, especially for small children.
