But the frontal air bags would not help you in many
types of collisions, including rollovers, rear impacts, and
many side impacts, primarily because an occupant’s
motion is not toward the air bag. Side impact air bags
would not help you in many types of collisions,
including frontal or near frontal collisions, rollovers, and
rear impacts, primarily because an occupant’s motion
is not toward those air bags. Air bags should never
be regarded as anything more than a supplement to
safety belts, and then only in moderate to severe frontal
or near-frontal collisions for the driver’s and right front
passenger’s frontal air bags, and only in moderate
to severe side collisions for vehicle’s with a driver’s and
right front passenger‘s side impact air bag.
What Will You See After an Air Bag
Inflates?
After the air bag inflates, it quickly deflates, so quickly
that some people may not even realize the air bag
inflated. Some components of the air bag module will be
hot for a short time. These components include the
steering wheel hub for the driver’s frontal air bag and the
instrument panel for the right front passenger’s frontal
air bag. For vehicles with side impact air bags, the side
of the seatback closest to the driver’s and/or right
front passenger’s
door will be hot. The parts of the bag
that come into contact with you may be warm, but
not too hot
to touch. There will be some smoke and dust coming
from the vents in the deflated air bags. Air bag
inflation doesn’t prevent the driver from seeing or
being able to steer the vehicle, nor does it stop people
from leaving the vehicle.
When an air bag inflates, there is dust in the
air. This dust could cause breathing problems
for people with a history of asthma or other
breathing trouble.
To avoid this, everyone in
the vehicle should get out as soon as it is safe
to do
so. If you have breathing problems but
can’t get out
of the vehicle after an air bag
inflates, then get fresh air by opening a
window or a door.
If you experience breathing
problems following an air bag deployment, you
should seek medical attention.
Your vehicle has a feature that will automatically unlock
the doors and turn the interior lamps on when the air
bags inflate (if battery power is available). You can lock
the doors again and turn the interior lamps
off by
using the door Imk and interior !amp contro!s.

Leaving children in a vehicle with the ignition
key is dangerous for many reasons.
A child or
others could be badly injured or even killed.
They could operate the power windows or other controls
or even make the vehicle move.
Don’t leave the keys in a vehicle with children.
2-3

Power Windows
Switches on the driver’s door panel operate each of the
windows when the ignition
is on or when Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) is active. In addition, each
passenger door has a switch for its own window.
Express-Down Window
When the driver’s or front passenger’s window switch,
marked
AUTO, is pushed all the way rearward, the
window will lower completely. The window can be
opened
in smaller amounts by pressing the switch
rearward slightly, to the first stop. To
stop the window while it is lowering in the express
mode, press the switch again, then release it. To
raise the window, hold the switch forward.
Window Lock Out
Press the LOCK button on the driver’s door armrest to
disable all
of the passenger window switches. If your
vehicle has a Driver Information Center
(DIC), you can
also set this feature to only lock out the rear window
switches. See
Driver Information Center (DIC) on
page 3-57. All driver’s window switches will still be
operable.
Press the
LOCK button again to allow passengers to
use their window switches.
An indicator light in the button
will glow when the
window lock out feature is active.
Sun Visors
To block out glare, you can swing down the visors.
You can also remove them from the center mount and
swing them to the side, while the auxiliary sunshade
remains to block glare from the front.
Visor Vanity Mirror
Open the cover to expose the vanity mirror.
If your vehicle has the optional lighted vanity mirrors,
the lamps come on when you open the cover.

Testing the Alarm
1. From inside the vehicle, roll down the window.
2. Activate the system by locking the doors with the
power door lock switch while the door is open, or
with the remote keyless entry transmitter.
3. Get out of the vehicle, close the door and wait for
the SECURITY light to go out.
4. Then, reach in through the window, unlock the door
with the manual door lock and open the door. This
should set
off the alarm.
If the alarm does not sound when it should, check to
see
if the horn works. The horn fuse may be blown.
To replace the fuse, see
Fuses and Circuit Breakers on
page 5-92.
If the alarm does not sound, or the exterior lamps do
not flash, see your dealer.
Content Theft-Deterrent
If your vehicle has this option, it has a content
theft-deterrent alarm system.
A light located in your Twilight Sentinel@ cluster, above
the fog lamp button, will begin to flash
30 seconds
after the vehicle ignition is turned
off to let you know the
system has been armed.
While armed, the doors will not unlock with the power
door lock switch. Once armed,
the alarm will go
off if someone tries to
enter the vehicle without using the remote keyless entry
transmitter or a key, breaks a window, tries to damage
the vehicle or turns the ignition to
ON. If any of these do
occur, the horn will sound and the parking lamps will
flash for up to two minutes.

OFF: This is the only position from which you can
remove the key. This position locks your ignition and
transaxle. It’s a theft-deterrent feature.
ACC (Accessory): In this position you can operate
your electrical accessories such as power windows,
sunroof (option), audio system and windshield wipers.
ON: This is the position the switch returns to after
you start your engine and release the switch. Even when
the engine is not running, you can use ON
to operate
your electrical accessories and to display some
instrument panel cluster warning lights. This is the
position for driving your vehicle.
START: This position starts the engine. When the
engine starts, release the key. The ignition switch will
return to
ON for normal driving.
Even
if the engine is not running, ACC and ON are
positions that allow you to operate your electrical
accessories.
Key Reminder Warning
If you leave your key in OFF you will hear a warning
tone when you open the driver’s door.
Retained Accessory Power (RAP)
After you turn the ignition off and remove the key, you
will still have power to such accessories as the
radio, sunroof (option) and power windows for up to
10 minutes. Power is turned off if you open a door.
Always leave your key in
OFF. If you leave your key in
any position other than
OFF, your battery will
discharge prematurely.
Starting Your Engine
Move your shift lever to PARK (P) or NEUTRAL (N).
Your engine won’t start in any other position - that’s a
safety feature. To restart when you’re already moving,
use NEUTRAL
(N) only.
Notice: Don’t try to shift to PARK (P) if your
vehicle
is moving. If you do, you could damage the
transaxle. Shift
to PARK (P) only when your
vehicle
is stopped.
1. With your foot off the accelerator pedal, turn your
ignition key to START. When the engine starts, let
go of the key. The idle speed will go down as
your engine gets warm.

Press the left or right side of the UR selector switch
located beneath the control pad to choose the left
or right mirror.
To adjust the mirror, use one of the four arrows located
on the control pad to move the mirror in the direction
you want it to go. When finished adjusting the mirrors,
leave the UR selector switch in the center position,
to prevent unwanted mirror movement in case the
control pad is accidentally bumped while driving. Adjust
each outside mirror
so that you can see a little of
your vehicle and the area behind your vehicle.
If your vehicle is equipped with the memory function,
the mirrors and driver’s seat position can be stored into
memory. See
Memory Seat and Mirrors on page 2-48.
Qutside Curb View Assist Mirror
If you have the memory seat and mirrors feature, the
passenger’s outside power mirror also includes a
tilt-down feature that operates when the shift lever is in
REVERSE (R). When the vehicle is shifted out of
REVERSE
(R), the passenger’s mirror wtii return to ils
original position after a five-second delay. This delay
prevents movement of the mirror
if multiple gear
transitions (REVERSE
(R) to DRIVE (D) to
REVERSE (R)) occur during a parallel parking
maneuver. This feature can be programmed on or
off
through the DIC personalization programming menu.
See
DIC Vehicle Personalization on page 3-62 for
programming instructions.
Outside Convex Mirror
Your passenger’s side mirror is convex. A convex
mirror’s surface is curved
so you can see more from the
ver’s seat.
A convex mirror can make things (like other
vehicles)
look farther away than they really are.
If you cut too sharply into the right lane, you
could hit a vehicle on your right. Check your
inside mirror or glance over your shoulder
before changing lanes.
Outside Heated Mirrors
If vour vehicle has this feature, when you operate the
rear window defogger, the heated driver’s and
passenger’s outside power mirrors are warmed to help
clear them of ice and snow. See “Rear Window
Defogger’’ under
Climate Control System on page 3-25
or Automatic Climate Control System on page 3-28
for more information.
