WARNING:o A child restraint system must be placed
in the rear seat. Never install a child or
infant seat on the front passenger's seat.
Should an accident occur and cause the
passenger side airbag to deploy, it could
severely injure or kill an infant or child
seated in an infant or child seat. Thus,
only use a child restraint in the rear seat
of your vehicle.
o Since a safety belt or child restraint sys-
tem can become very hot if it is left in a
closed vehicle, be sure to check the seat
cover and buckles before placing a child
there.
o When the child restraint system is not in
use, store it in the trunk or fasten it with
a safety belt so that it will not be thrown
forward in the case of a sudden stop or
an accident.
o Children who are too large to be in a
child restraint should still sit in the rear
seat and be restrained with the available
lap/shoulder belts. Never allow children
to ride in the front passenger seat.
o Always make sure that the shoulder belt
portion of the lap/shoulder belt is posi-
tioned midway over the shoulder, never
across the neck or behind the back. Mov-
ing the child closer to the center of the
vehicle may help provide a good shoul-
der belt fit. The lap belt portion of the lap/
shoulder belt or the center seat lap belt
must always be positioned as low as
possible on the child's hips and as snug
as possible.
o If the seat belt will not properly fit the
child, we recommend the use of an ap-
proved booster seat in the rear seat in
order to raise the child's seating height
so that the seat belt will properly fit the
child. Before purchasing a booster seat,
make sure that it meets applicable Feder-
al Motor Vehicle Safety Standards
(FMVSS) and that it is satisfactory for
use with this vehicle.
o Never allow a child to stand up or kneel
on the seat.
o Never use an infant carrier or child safety
seat that "hooks" over a seatback; it may
not provide adequate security in an acci-
dent.
o Never allow a child to be held in a per-
son's arms while they are in a moving
vehicle, as this could result in serious
injury to the child in the event of an
accident or a sudden stop. Holding a
child in a moving vehicle does not pro-
vide the child with any means of protec-
tion during an accident, even if the per-
son holding the child is wearing a seat
belt.B230A02A-AAT
CHILD RESTRAINT SYSTEM
Children riding in the car should sit in the rear
seat and must always be properly restrained to
minimize the risk of injury in an accident, sud-
den stop or sudden maneuver. According to
accident statistics provided by the National High-
way Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA),
children are safer when properly restrained in
the rear seats than in the front seat. Larger
children should use one of the seat belts pro-
vided.
All 50 states have child restraint laws. You
should be aware of the specific requirements in
your state. Child and/or infant safety seats must
be properly placed and installed in the rear
seat. You must use a commercially available
child restraint system that meets the require-
ments of the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards (FMVSS).
Children could be injured or killed in a crash if
their restraints are not properly secured. For
small children and babies, a child seat or infant
seat must be used. Before buying a particular
child restraint system, make sure it fits your car
and seat belts, and fits your child. Follow all the
instructions provided by the manufacturer when
installing the child restraint system.

CAUTION:The following specifications are recommend-

the chart below.
WARNING:Improperly loading your car and trailer can
seriously affect its steering and braking per-
formance causing a crash which could cause
serious injury or death.

Safety Chains
Should the hitch connection between your car
and the trailer or vehicle you are towing fail, the
trailer or vehicle could wander dangerously
across other lanes of traffic and ultimately leave
the roadway. To eliminate this potentially dan-
gerous situation, safety chains, attached be-
tween your car and the trailer or towed vehicle,
are required in most states.
Tongue loads can be increased or decreased
by redistributing the load in the trailer.
This can be verified by checking the total weight
of the loaded trailer and then checking the load
on the tongue.
NOTE:1. Never load the trailer with more weight in
the back than in the front. About 60% of
the trailer load should be in the front half
on the trailer and the remaining 40% in
the rear.
2. The total gross vehicle weight with trailer
must not exceed the Gross Vehicle Weight
Rating (GVWR) shown on the vehicle
identification plate (see page 8-1). The
total gross vehicle weight is the com-
bined weight of the vehicle, driver, all
passengers and their luggage, cargo,
hitch, trailer tongue load and other op-
tional equipment.
3. The front or rear axle weight must not
exceed the Gross Axle Weight Rating
(GAWR) shown on the vehicle identifica-
tion plate (see page 8-1). It is possible
that your towing package does not ex-
ceed the GVWR but exceeds the GAWR.
Improper trailer loading and/or too much
luggage in the trunk can overload the
rear axle. Redistribute the load and check
the axle weight again.

WHAT TO DO IN AN EMERGENCY

the flat to keep the vehicle from rolling when the
car is raised on the jack.

3. Loosen Wheel Nuts
The wheel nuts should be loosened slightly
before raising the car. To loosen the nuts, turn
the wrench handle counterclockwise. When
doing this, be sure that the socket is seated
completely over the nut so it cannot slip off. For
maximum leverage, position the wrench so the
handle is to the left as shown in the drawing.
Then, while holding the wrench near the end of
the handle, push down on it with steady pres-
sure. Do not remove the nuts at this time. Just
loosen them about one-half turn.
Remove the spare tire and remove the jack and
tool bag from the trunk.

screw driver or wrench bar and remove it from
the bracket.
