D While the vehicle is moving, always keep the heads, hands and other parts of the bodies of all occupants away from the roof opening. Otherwise, they could be seriously injured if the vehicle stops suddenly or if the vehicle is involved in an accident. D The jam protection function may not work if something gets caught just before the moon roof is fully closed. D Always make sure nobody places his/her head, hands and other parts of the body in the roof opening before you close the roof.

Unattended children can be involved in serious accidents. 2003 AVALON (OM41401U) 39
