TABLE OF CONTENTS

WARNING!(Continued)
• Being too close to the Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtain and/orSeat-Mounted Side Air Bag during deployment could cause you to be severely
injured or killed.
• Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed. If you are involved in another collision, the air bags will not be in place to protect you.
• After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer immediately.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
• Children 12 years and under should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, ifavailable. According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained
in the rear seats rather than in the front.
• Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small children ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be
prosecuted for ignoring it.
Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
• Your vehicle's second row passenger seats are equipped with the child restraintanchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for
CHildren. LATCH child restraint anchorage systems are installed at all three rear
seating positions.
• Child seats with fixed lower attachments must be installed in the outboard positions only. Child seats with flexible lower attachments can be used in all three
seating positions.
• NEVER install LATCH-compatible child seats so that two seats share a common
lower anchorage.
• Loosen the child seat adjusters on thelower straps and tether straps so that
you can attach the hook or connector
to the lower and tether anchorages
more easily.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors over the top of the seatcover material.
• The tether strap should be routed over the center top of the head restraint and
attached to the tether anchor on the
rear of the seatback.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
• To install a child restraint, first pull enough of the seat belt webbing from theretractor to route it through the belt path of the child restraint and slide the latch
plate into the buckle.
GETTING STARTED
11

• Next, extract all the seat belt webbing from the retractor and then allow the belt toretract into the retractor. Finally, pull on any excess webbing to tighten the lap
portion around the child restraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so
check the belt occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.
• Once you have completed securing the child restraint with the seat belt, secure the top tether strap. The tether strap should be routed over the center top of the head
restraint.
WARNING!
• In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become aprojectile inside the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on
your lap could become so great that you could not hold the child, no matter
how strong you are. The child and others could be severely injured or killed.
Any child riding in your vehicle should be in a proper restraint for the child's
size.
• Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be severely injured or
killed. Follow the manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant
or child restraint.
• An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the
child seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap.
• Rearward-facing child seats must never be used in the front seat of a vehicle with a front passenger air bag. An air bag deployment could cause severe
injury or death to infants in this position.

• The power seat switch is located on theoutboard side of the seat near the
floor. Use the switch to move the seat
up, down, forward, rearward, or to tilt
the seat.
Manual Seat Adjustment
Forward/Rearward
• Lift up on the adjusting bar located at the front of the seat near the floor and
release at the desired position.
Recliner • Lift the recliner lever located on the outboard side of the seat, lean back
and release at the desired position.

the lever to raise the seat. Lower the
lever to lower the seat.

WARNING!(Continued)
• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no longerresting against your chest. In a collision, you could slide under the seat belt
and be severely injured or killed. Use the recliner only when the vehicle is
parked.
REAR SEATS
Folding Rear Seatback
• To fold each rear seatback, pull thestrap forward to move the seatback
forward and flat.
Reclining Rear Seatback
• To recline each rear seatback, pull thestrap forward just enough to release
the seatback latch. Then push the
seatback to a reclined position,
approximately 35 degrees maximum,
and release the strap.
WARNING!
Be certain that the seatback is securely locked into position. If the seatback is
not securely locked into position, the seat will not provide the proper stability
for child seats and/or passengers. An improperly latched seat could cause
serious injury.
HEATED SEATS
Front Heated Seats
• The controls for the front heated seatsare located on the center instrument
panel area.
• Press the switch once to select High-level heating. Press the switch a
second time to select Low-level
