Memory Seat, Mirrors, and Pedals
Your vehicle has the memory package.
The controls for this
feature are located on
the driver’s door
panel, and are used to
program and recall
memory settings for the
driver’s seat, outside
mirrors, and the
adjustable throttle and
brake pedal feature
if your vehicle has it.
To save your positions in memory, do the
following:
1. Adjust the driver’s seat, including the seatback
recliner and lumbar, both outside mirrors, and
the throttle and brake pedals to a comfortable
position.SeeOutside Power Foldaway Mirrors on
page 161andAdjustable Throttle and Brake
Pedal on page 143for more information.
Not all mirrors will have the ability to save and
recall the mirror positions.
2. Press and hold button 1 until two beeps let
you know that the position has been stored.
A second seating, mirror, and throttle and brake
pedal position can be programmed by repeating
the above steps and pressing button 2.
To recall the memory positions, the vehicle
must be in PARK (P). Press and release either
button 1 or button 2 corresponding to the desired
driving position. The seat, outside mirrors, and
adjustable throttle and brake pedals will move to
the position previously stored. You will hear a
single beep.
If you use the remote keyless entry transmitter to
enter your vehicle and the remote recall memory
feature is on, automatic seat, mirror, and
adjustable pedal movement will occur. See
“MEMORY SEAT RECALL” underDIC Vehicle
Customization (With DIC Buttons) on page 262for

or the safety belts!
With safety belts, you slow down as the vehicle
does. You get more time to stop. You stop
over more distance, and your strongest bones
take the forces. That is why safety belts
make such good sense.
Questions and Answers About
Safety Belts
Q:Will I be trapped in the vehicle after an
accident if I am wearing a safety belt?
A:Youcouldbe — whether you are wearing a
safety belt or not. But you can unbuckle a
safety belt, even if you are upside down. And
your chance of being conscious during and
after an accident, so youcanunbuckle and
get out, ismuchgreater if you are belted.
Q:If my vehicle has airbags, why should I
have to wear safety belts?
A:Airbags are in many vehicles today and will be
in most of them in the future. But they are
supplemental systems only; so they workwith
safety belts — not instead of them. Every
airbag system ever offered for sale has
required the use of safety belts. Even if you
are in a vehicle that has airbags, you still have
to buckle up to get the most protection.
That is true not only in frontal collisions, but
especially in side and other collisions.

In any particular crash, no one can say whether
an airbag should have inated simply because
of the damage to a vehicle or because of what the
repair costs were. For frontal airbags, ination is
determined by what the vehicle hits, the angle
of the impact, and how quickly the vehicle
slows down. For roof-mounted rollover airbags,
ination is determined by the location and severity
of the impact or a rollover event.
The airbag system is designed to work properly
under a wide range of conditions, including off-road
usage. Observe safe driving speeds, especially
on rough terrain. As always, wear your safety belt.
SeeOff-Road Driving on page 359for tips on
off-road driving.What Makes an Airbag Inate?
In an impact of sufficient severity, the airbag
sensing system detects that the vehicle is
in a crash. In the case of a roof-mounted rollover
airbag, the sensing system detects that the
vehicle is about to roll over or has been in a severe
frontal impact. The sensing system triggers a
release of gas from the inator, which inates the
airbag. The inator, airbag, and related hardware
are all part of the airbag modules inside the
steering wheel and in the instrument panel in front
of the right front passenger. For vehicles with
roof-mounted rollover airbags, the airbag modules
are located in the ceiling of the vehicle, near
the side windows.
If your vehicle has a third row seat with
roof-mounted rollover airbags, the airbag modules
are located inside the rear-most pillar trim and
above in the ceiling above the xed rear glass.

Doors and Locks
Door Locks
{CAUTION:
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
Passengers, especially children, can
easily open the doors and fall out
of a moving vehicle. When a door is
locked, the handle will not open it.
You increase the chance of being
thrown out of the vehicle in a crash if
the doors are not locked. So, wear
safety belts properly and lock the
doors whenever you drive.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)

Young children who get into unlocked
vehicles may be unable to get out. A
child can be overcome by extreme
heat and can suffer permanent injuries
or even death from heat stroke.
Always lock your vehicle whenever
you leave it.
Outsiders can easily enter through an
unlocked door when you slow down
or stop your vehicle. Locking your
doors can help prevent this from
happening.
122

Power Running Boards
Your vehicle may have power running boards.
These make getting into and out of the vehicle
easier.
The power running boards activate when either
door on the driver’s or passenger’s side is opened
or closed. They automatically extend from
beneath the vehicle on the side in which the door
has been opened. Once the door is closed, the
running boards will automatically move back under
the vehicle. The vehicle must be stationary for
the running boards to extend or retract.
The switch used to
disable the power
running boards is
located on the center
console below the
climate control system.
The running boards cannot be disabled in the
extended position.
Windows
{CAUTION:
Leaving children, helpless adults, or pets
in a vehicle with the windows closed is
dangerous. They can be overcome by
the extreme heat and suffer permanent
injuries or even death from heat stroke.
Never leave a child, a helpless adult, or a
pet alone in a vehicle, especially with the
windows closed in warm or hot weather.
132

Express-Down Windows
The driver and front passenger windows have an
express-down feature that allows the windows to be
lowered without holding the switch. Press down
fully on the window switch, then release, to activate
the express-down mode. The express-down mode
can be canceled at any time by pulling up on the
switch.
Window Lockout
o
(Window Lockout):The window lockout
switch is located with the power window switches
on the driver’s door armrest. This feature
prevents the rear passenger windows from
operating, except from the driver’s position. Press
the switch to turn on the lockout feature. An
indicator light will come on to show the lockout
feature is on. To turn the feature off, press
the switch again and the indicator light will go off.
Sun Visors
Pull the sun visor down to block glare. Detach the
sun visor from the center mount and slide it
along the rod from side-to-side to cover the driver
or passenger side of the front window. Swing
the sun visor to the side to cover the side window.
It can be moved along the rod from side-to-side
in this position also.
Lighted Visor Vanity Mirror
Your vehicle has lighted visor vanity mirrors on
both the driver’s and passenger’s sun visors. Pull
the sun visor down and lift the mirror cover to
turn the lamps on.
Theft-Deterrent Systems
Vehicle theft is big business, especially in some
cities. Although your vehicle has a number of
theft-deterrent features, we know that nothing we
put on it can make it impossible to steal.
134

PARK (P):This position locks your rear wheels. It
is the best position to use when you start your
engine because your vehicle cannot move easily.
When parked on a hill, especially when the
vehicle has a heavy load, you may notice an
increase in the effort to shift out of Park.
See Torque Lock (Automatic Transmission) under
Shifting Into Park (P) on page 153for more
information.
{CAUTION:
It is dangerous to get out of your vehicle
if the shift lever is not fully in PARK (P)
with the parking brake rmly set. Your
vehicle can roll.
Do not leave your vehicle when the engine
is running unless you have to. If you have
left the engine running, the vehicle can
move suddenly. You or others could be
injured. To be sure your vehicle will not
move, even when you are on fairly level
ground, always set your parking brake
and move the shift lever to PARK (P). See
Shifting Into Park (P) on page 153.Ifyou
are pulling a trailer, seeTowing a Trailer
on page 400.
