KEYS
1Remote control coded ignition
key, key for doors and fuel filler
cap.
If there is a child (or animal) in the car, never leave it unattended with
the key in the ignition. With the key in the ignition it would be
possible to operate electrical equipment such as the window risers
and there is a risk that the child may be seriously injured (by trapping
his or her neck, arm, hand, etc.).
