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 408
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 airbag covering on the driver’s and
right front passenger’s seatback (if equipped),
or the side impact airbag covering on the
garnish trim and ceiling near the side windows
(if equipped), 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, the airbag
module and seatback for the driver’s and right
front passenger’s seat-mounted side impact
airbags (if equipped), or the side impact airbag
module, garnish trim and ceiling covering
for the roof-mounted side impact airbags
(if equipped). Do not open or break the airbag
coverings.

Keys
{CAUTION:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the
ignition key is dangerous for many
reasons. They could operate the power
windows or other controls or even make
the vehicle move. The children or others
could be badly injured or even killed.
Do not leave the keys in a vehicle with
children.

3. Snap the front and back together tightly so
moisture will not get inside the transmitter.
4. Test the operation of the transmitter with the
vehicle.
Remote Vehicle Start
Your vehicle may have a remote starting feature.
This feature allows you to start the engine from
outside the vehicle. It may also start the vehicle’s
heating or air conditioning systems and rear
window defogger. When the remote start system
is active and the vehicle has an automatic climate
control system, it will automatically regulate the
inside temperature. Normal operation of the system
will return after the ignition key is turned to ON.
Laws in some communities may restrict the use
of remote starters. For example, some laws may
require a person using remote start to have the
vehicle in view when doing so. Check local
regulations for any requirements on remote
starting of vehicles.Do not use the remote start feature if your vehicle
is low on fuel. Your vehicle may run out of fuel.
The remote start feature provides two separate
starts per ignition cycle, each with 10 minutes of
engine running time.
The remote start feature needs to be reset after
your vehicle’s engine is started two times using
the transmitter’s remote start button. To reset the
remote start feature, insert the vehicle’s key into
the ignition switch and turn it to ON. SeeIgnition
Positions on page 122for information regarding the
ignition positions on your vehicle.
You can start your vehicle’s engine from
approximately 197 feet (60 m) away. However, the
range may be less while the vehicle is running,
and as a result you may need to be closer to your
vehicle to turn it off than you were to turn it on.
There are other conditions which can affect
the performance of the transmitter, seeRemote
Keyless Entry System on page 100for additional
information.

{CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the trunk
lid open because carbon monoxide (CO)
gas can come into your vehicle. You
cannot see or smell CO. It can cause
unconsciousness and even death.
CAUTION: (Continued)
CAUTION: (Continued)
If you must drive with the trunk lid open
or if electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass through the seal
between the body and the trunk lid:
Make sure all other windows are shut.
Turn the fan on your heating or cooling
system to its highest speed and select
the control setting that will force
outside air into your vehicle.
See Climate Control System.
If you have air outlets on or under
the instrument panel, open them
all the way.
SeeEngine Exhaust on page 140.
