- Always take the key with you when leaving the vehicle - even if you only intend to be gone for a short time. This is especially important if children are left in the car. They might otherwise be able to start the engine or use power-operated equipment such as the electric windows - this could lead to injuries.
- If there is a malfunction in the child lock, it may be possible to open the rear doors from the inside - risk of accident!
