The lap part of the belt should be worn low and snug on
the hips, just touching the thighs. In a crash, this applies
force to the strong pelvic bones. And you'd be less likely
to slide under the lap belt. If you slid under it, the belt
would apply force at your abdomen. This could cause
serious or even fatal injuries. The shoulder belt should go
over the shoulder and across the chest. These parts of the
body are best able to take belt restraining forces.
The safety belt locks if there's a sudden stop or a crash,
or if you pull the belt very quickly out of the retractor.
CAUTION:
You can be seriously hurt if your shoulder belt is
too loose. In a crash, you would move forward
too much, which could increase injury. The
shoulder belt should fit against your body.
To unlatch the belt, just push the button on the buckle.

5. Pull the rest of the lap belt all the way out of the
retractor to set the lock.6. To tighten the belt, feed the lap belt back into the
retractor while you push down on the child restraint.
You may find it helpful to use your knee to push
down on the child restraint as you tighten the belt.
7. Push and pull the child restraint in different
directions to be sure it is secure.
To remove the child restraint, just unbuckle the vehicle's
safety belt and let it go back all the way. The safety belt
will move freely again and be ready to work for an adult
or larger child passenger.

Ignition Key Door/Locks Key
The square key is for the ignition only. It has a
resistor pellet which is part of the vehicle's
PASS
-Key
II system.
The oval key is for the doors and all other locks.When a new vehicle is delivered, the dealer removes the
plug from the door key. The plug has a code on it that
tells the dealer or a qualified locksmith how to make
extra keys. The ignition key has a bar code tag attached
to it rather than a knock out plug. Your dealer or
qualified locksmith can make extra ignition keys by
reading the bar code tag.
Keep the bar code tag and the door key plugs in a safe
place. If you lose your keys, you will be able to have
new ones made using the plug or bar code tag.
NOTICE:
Your vehicle has a number of new features that
can help prevent theft. You can have a lot of
trouble getting into your vehicle if you ever
lock your keys inside and you may have to
damage your vehicle to get in. Be sure you
have extra keys.

Door Locks
CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers -- especially children -- can easily
open the doors and fall out. When a door is
locked, the inside handle won't open it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an unlocked
door when you slow down or stop your vehicle.
This may not be so obvious: You increase the
chance of being thrown out of the vehicle in a
crash if the doors aren't locked. Wear safety belts
properly, lock your doors, and you will be far
better off whenever you drive your vehicle.
There are several ways to lock and unlock your vehicle.
From the outside, use either the door key or the remote
keyless entry transmitter.If your vehicle is equipped with the theft
-deterrent system,
you must unlock the doors with the key or remote keyless
entry transmitter to avoid setting off the alarm.
Press the front of the manual lock lever forward to lock
the door from the inside. To unlock the door, press the
lever rearward.

2-5 Central Door Unlocking System
Your vehicle will have this feature if it is equipped with
the theft
-deterrent system. When unlocking either front
door, you can unlock the other doors by holding the key
in the turned position for a few seconds or by quickly
turning the door key twice in the lock cylinder.
Power Door Locks
Press the power door lock
button to lock or unlock all
the doors at once. The rear
power door locks provide a
lock only function as a
convenience feature. For
safety reasons, they will not
unlock the doors.
Automatic Door Locks
Close your doors and turn on the ignition. Every time
you move the shift lever out of PARK (P), all of the
doors will lock. The doors will unlock every time you
stop the vehicle and move the shift lever back into
PARK (P). If someone needs to get out while your
vehicle is not in PARK (P), have that person use the
manual or power lock. When the door is closed again, it
will not lock automatically. Use the manual or power
lock to lock the door again. If you need to lock the doors
before shifting out of PARK (P), use the manual or
power lock button to lock the doors.
Programmable Automatic Door Locks
(If Equipped)
With the ignition in RUN, the door locks can be
programmed through prompts displayed by the Driver
Information Center (DIC). These prompts allow the
driver to choose various lock settings. For programming
information, see ªMemory and Personalization
Featuresº in the Index.

Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
If your vehicle has this
option, you can lock and
unlock your doors, or
unlock your trunk from
about 3 feet (1 m) up to
30 feet (9 m) away using
the remote keyless entry
transmitter supplied with
your vehicle.

radio frequency subject to Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) Rules and with Industry Canada.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and
(2) this device must accept any interference received,
including interference that may cause undesired operation.This device complies with RSS
-210 of Industry Canada.
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) this device may not cause interference, and (2) this
device must accept any interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired operation of
the device.
Changes or modifications to this system by other than an
authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
This system has a range of about 3 feet (1 m) up to
30 feet (9 m). At times you may notice a decrease in
range. This is normal for any remote keyless entry
transmitter. If the transmitter does not work or if you
have to stand closer to your vehicle for the transmitter to
work, try this:

Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See the instructions that follow.

Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. You may need to stand closer during rainy
or snowy weather.

Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may be
blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the left or
right, hold the transmitter higher, and try again.

If you're still having trouble, see your dealer or a
qualified technician for service.
