Your Airbag System (SRS) includes:●Two SRS (Supplemental Restraint
System) front airbags. The driver's
airbag is stored in the center of the
steering wheel; the front passenger's
airbag is stored in the dashboard.
Both are marked‘‘SRS AIRBAG ’’
(see page 28).●Two side airbags, one for the driver
and one for a front passenger. The
airbags are stored in the outer edges
of the seat-backs. Both are marked
‘‘ SIDE AIRBAG ’’(see page 32).●Two side curtain airbags, one for
each side of the vehicle. The airbags
are stored in the roof above the side
windows. The front and rear pillars
are marked ‘‘SIDE CURTAIN
AIRBAG ’’(see page 33).
●On models with CMBS, front seat
belt e-pretensioners (see page 24).●Automatic front seat belt tensioners
(see page 23).●Sensors that can detect a moderate
to severe front impact, side impact,
or if your vehicle is about to rollover.●Sensors that can detect whether a
child is in the passenger's side
airbag path and signal the control
unit to turn the airbag off (see page
33).●Sensors that can detect whether the
driver's seat belt and the front
passenger's seat belt are latched or
unlatched (see page 21).●A driver's seat position sensor that
monitors the distance of the seat
from the front airbag. If the seat is
too far forward, the airbag will inflate
with less force (see page 31).
●Weight sensors that monitor the
weight on the front passenger's seat.
If the weight is about 65 lbs (29 kg)
or less (the weight of an infant or
small child), the passenger's front
airbag will be turned off (see page
31).●A rollover sensor that can detect if
your vehicle is about to roll over and
signal the control unit to deploy both
side curtain airbags (see page 34).

Your vehicle's exhaust contains
carbon monoxide gas. Carbon
monoxide should not enter the
vehicle in normal driving if you
maintain your vehicle properly and
follow the information on this page.
Have the exhaust system inspected
for leaks whenever:●The vehicle is raised for an oil
change.●You notice a change in the sound
of the exhaust.●The vehicle was in a collision that
may have damaged the underside.
Carbon monoxide gas is toxic.
Breathing it can cause
unconsciousness and even kill
you.
Avoid any enclosed areas or
activities that expose you to
carbon monoxide.
High levels of carbon monoxide can
collect rapidly in enclosed areas,
such as a garage. Do not run the
engine with the garage door closed.
Even with the door open, run the
engine only long enough to move the
vehicle out of the garage. With the tailgate open, airflow can
pull exhaust gas into your vehicle's
interior and create a hazardous
condition. If you must drive with the
tailgate open, open all the windows,
and set the climate control system as
shown below.
If you must sit in your parked vehicle
with the engine running, even in an
unconfined area, adjust the climate
control system as follows:
1. Select the fresh air mode.
2. Select the
mode.
3. Turn the fan on high speed.
4. Set the temperature control to a comfortable setting.

On models with navigation systemYou can see HFL information on the
navigation screen (see page 418). Battery Charge Low
When the battery's state of charge is
low, the vehicle's battery
management system triggers one of
the following
‘‘BATTERY CHARGE
LOW ’’messages if the ignition is on
or off.
Depending on how low the battery's
state of charge dropped and how
long it remained low, these messages
may occur frequently. It may take a
number of trips to sufficiently
recharge the battery and the
messages to no longer appear.
IGN ON (II) －Immediately turn off
all electrical devices (interior lights,
air conditioning, audio, heated seats,
etc.). Try not to operate other
electrically operated controls such as
the power windows. Driving the
vehicle will recharge the battery. If
the message continues to display
while driving, see your dealer.
