Restraint System Check
Checking the Restraint Systems
Now and then, make sure the safety belt reminder
light and all your belts, buckles, latch plates,
retractors and anchorages are working properly.
Look for any other loose or damaged safety
belt system parts. If you see anything that might
keep a safety belt system from doing its job, have
it repaired. SeeCare of Safety Belts on page 390
for more information.
Torn or frayed safety belts may not protect you in
a crash. They can rip apart under impact forces.
If a belt is torn or frayed, get a new one right away.Also look for any opened or broken airbag covers,
and have them repaired or replaced. The airbag
system does not need regular maintenance.
Notice:If you damage the covering for
the driver’s or the right front passenger’s
airbag, or the side impact airbag covering
(if equipped) on the ceiling near the side
windows, the airbag may not work properly.
You may have to replace the airbag module
in the steering wheel, both the airbag module
and the instrument panel for the right front
passenger’s airbag, or side impact airbag
module and ceiling covering for roof-mounted
side impact airbags (if equipped.) Do not
open or break the airbag coverings.

Section 2 Features and Controls

Convenience Net
The vehicle may have a convenience net located
on the back wall of the trunk.
The net is not for larger, heavier loads. Store
those in the trunk as far forward as possible.
Unhook the net so that it will lie at when
not in use.
Sunroof
If your vehicle is
equipped with a
sunroof, the sunroof
switches are located on
the overhead console.
The sunroof can only be operated when the
ignition is in ACCESSORY, RUN, or when
Retained Accessory Power (RAP) is active. See
Retained Accessory Power (RAP) on page 113.
Q(Vent/Express-Open):To vent the sunroof
when it is closed, press this switch once.
When using the vent, the sunshade should be fully
opened. The sunshade can be opened or closed
manually by sliding it rearward or forward.
From the vent position, press this switch again to
activate the express-open feature. Press the
close switch to stop movement of the sunroof.
The sunshade will automatically open when using
express-open.
A deector will automatically pop up when the
sunroof is opened. The deector will retract when
the sunroof is closed.
R(Close):To close the sunroof, press and hold
this switch until the sunroof motor stops, or
release the switch when the desired position has
been reached.

Backglass Antenna
The AM-FM antenna is integrated with the rear
window defogger, located in the rear window. Make
sure that the inside surface of the rear window is
not scratched and that the lines on the glass are not
damaged. If the inside surface is damaged, it could
interfere with radio reception. Also, for proper radio
reception, the antenna connector at the top-center
of the rear window needs to be properly attached to
the post on the glass.
Notice:Do not apply aftermarket glass tinting
with metallic lm. The metallic lm in some
tinting materials will interfere with or distort
the incoming radio reception. Any damage
caused to your backglass antenna due
to metallic tinting materials will not be
covered by your warranty.
Notice:Using a razor blade or sharp object to
clear the inside rear window may damage
the rear window antenna and/or the rear
window defogger. Repairs would not be
covered by your warranty. Do not clear the
inside rear window with sharp objects.
Because this antenna is built into the rear window,
there is a reduced risk of damage caused by
car washes and vandals.If static is heard on the radio, when the rear
window defogger is turned on, it could mean that
a defogger grid line has been damaged and
the grid line must be repaired.
If adding a cellular telephone to your vehicle, and
the antenna needs to be attached to the glass,
make sure that you do not damage the grid lines
for the AM-FM antenna. There is enough space
between the lines to attach a cellular telephone
antenna without interfering with radio reception.
XM™ Satellite Radio
Antenna System
The XM™ Satellite Radio antenna is located on
the roof of your vehicle. Keep this antenna clear of
snow and ice build up for clear radio reception.
A vehicle with a sunroof might not get the
best performance from the XM™ system if the
sunroof is open.
Loading items onto the roof of your vehicle can
interfere with the performance of the XM™ system.
Make sure the XM™ Satellite Radio antenna is
not obstructed.
