Infants and Young Children
Everyone in a vehicle needs protection! This
includes infants and all other children. Neither the
distance traveled nor the age and size of the
traveler changes the need, for everyone, to use
safety restraints. In fact, the law in every state
in the United States and in every Canadian
province says children up to some age must be
restrained while in a vehicle.
{CAUTION:
Children can be seriously injured or
strangled if a shoulder belt is wrapped
around their neck and the safety belt
continues to tighten. Never leave children
unattended in a vehicle and never allow
children to play with the safety belts.Every time infants and young children ride in
vehicles, they should have the protection provided
by appropriate restraints. Young children should
not use the vehicle’s adult safety belts alone,
unless there is no other choice. Instead, they need
to use a child restraint.
{CAUTION:
People should never hold a baby in their
arms while riding in a vehicle. A baby
does not weigh much — until a crash.
During a crash a baby will become so
heavy it is not possible to hold it. For
example, in a crash at only 25 mph
(40 km/h), a 12 lb (5.5 kg) baby will
suddenly become a 240 lb (110 kg) force
on a person’s arms. A baby should be
secured in an appropriate restraint.

Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System
If the vehicle has the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
system, it operates on a 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 interference.
2. This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry
Canada. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. This device may not cause interference.
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.
At times you may notice a decrease in range. This
is normal for any RKE system. If the transmitter
does not work or if you have to stand closer
to your vehicle for the transmitter to work, try this:
•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.
•Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See “Battery Replacement”
underRemote Keyless Entry (RKE) System
Operation on page 91.
•If you are still having trouble, see your
dealer/retailer or a qualified technician
for service.

Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your RKE
transmitter should last about two years.
The battery is weak if the LED fails to illuminate or
if the transmitter will not work at the normal
range in any location. If you have to get close to
your vehicle before the transmitter works, it is
probably time to change the battery.
Notice:When replacing the battery, use care
not to touch any of the circuitry. Static
from your body transferred to these surfaces
may damage the transmitter.To replace the battery in the RKE transmitter, do
the following:
1. Remove the screw from the back of the cover
and open the cover of the transmitter.
2. Pull the transmitter out of the cover and
carefully detach the sticker from the unit.
Keep the sticker clean.
3. Remove the battery and replace it with the
new one. Make sure the positive side of the
battery faces up. Use one three-volt, CR1620,
or equivalent, type battery.
4. Attach the sticker and put the transmitter unit
in the cover.
5. Put the two halves back together and replace
the screw. Make sure the cover is on tightly,
so water will not get in.
6. Test the transmitter operation.

3. If the engine still will not start, or starts but
then stops, it could be flooded with too
much gasoline. Try pushing your accelerator
pedal all the way to the floor and holding
it there as you hold the key in START
for about three seconds. If the vehicle starts
briefly but then stops again, do the same
thing, but this time keep the pedal down for
five or six seconds. This clears the extra
gasoline from the engine.
Notice:Your engine is designed to work with
the electronics in your vehicle. If you add
electrical parts or accessories, you could
change the way the engine operates. Before
adding electrical equipment, check with
your dealer. If you do not, your engine might
not perform properly. Any resulting damage
would not be covered by your vehicle’s
warranty.Engine Coolant Heater
Your vehicle may have an engine coolant heater.
In very cold weather, 0°F (−18°C) or colder,
the engine coolant heater can help. You will get
easier starting and better fuel economy during
engine warm-up. Usually, the coolant heater
should be plugged in a minimum of four hours
prior to starting your vehicle. At temperatures
above 32°F (0°C), use of the coolant heater is
not required.

Using the Auxiliary Input Jack
The radio system has an auxiliary input jack
located on the lower right side of the faceplate.
This is not an audio output. Do not plug the
headphone set into the front auxiliary input jack.
An external audio device such as an iPod,
laptop computer, MP3 player, CD changer, or
cassette tape player, etc. can be connected to the
auxiliary input jack for use as another source
for audio listening.
The auxiliary input jack also accepts cell phone
connectors. Plug the cell phone connector into the
auxiliary input jack to hear a person speaking
on a cell phone during conversation through the
vehicle sound system.
Drivers are encouraged to set up any auxiliary
device while the vehicle is in PARK (P). See
Defensive Driving on page 220for more
information on driver distraction.To use a portable audio player, connect a 3.5 mm
(1/8 inch) cable to the radio’s front auxiliary
input jack. While a device is connected, turn the
portable audio player on and press the radio
CD/AUX button to hear audio from the device over
the vehicle speakers.
CD/AUX (CD/Auxiliary):Press this button once
to play a CD while a portable audio device is
playing. Press this button a second time for the
system to begin playing audio from the connected
portable audio player. Once in this mode,
“Auxinput” appears on the display. If the auxiliary
jack does not detect the presence of an output
jack, the auxiliary mode does not display.
O(Power/Volume):Turn theOknob clockwise
or counterclockwise to increase or decrease the
volume of the portable player. Additional
adjustments on a portable device might be needed
to get the desired volume.
