CONTROLS AT A GLANCE

WARNING!
• Do not start or run an engine in a closed garage or confined area.
Exhaust gas contains Carbon Monoxide (CO) which is odorless and
colorless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous and can cause you or
others to be severely injured or killed when inhaled.
• Keep Key Fob transmittersaway fromchildren. Operation of the
Remote Start System, windows, door locks or other controls could
cause you and others to be severely injured or killed.
THEFT ALARM
To A r m
• Press the Key Fob LOCK button or the power door lock switch while the
door is open.
To Disarm
• Press the Key Fob UNLOCK button or turn the ignition to the ON/RUN
position.
SEAT BELT
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt
properly.
• Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your abdomen. To remove
slack in the lap portion, pull up a bit on the shoulder belt. To loosen the
lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap belt. A
snug belt reduces the risk of sliding under the belt in a collision.
• Position the shoulder belt on your chest so that it is comfortable and not
resting on your neck. The retractor will withdraw any slack in the belt.
• A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during
a collision. You are more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not
wear your shoulder belt. The lap and shoulder belt are meant to be used
together.
• A belt that is too loose will not protect you properly. In a sudden stop
you could move too far forward, increasing the possibility of injury. Wear
your seat belt snugly.
• A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no
protection. Inspect the belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays,
or loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not
disassemble or modify the system. Seat belt assemblies must be
replaced after a collision if they have been damaged (bent retractor, torn
webbing, etc.).
• The seat belts for both front seating positions are equipped with
pretensioning devices that are designed to remove slack from the seat
belt in the event of a collision.
GETTING STARTED
11
• A deployed pretensioner or a deployed air bag must be replaced
immediately.
WARNING!
In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater
injuries if you are not buckled up properly. You can strike the interior
of your vehicle or other passengers, or you can be thrown out of the
vehicle. Always be sure you andothers in your vehicle are buckled up
properly.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) — AIR
BAGS
• This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for both the driver and right
front passenger as a supplement to the seat belt restraint system. The
Advanced Front Air Bags will not deploy in every type of collision.
• Advanced Front Air Bags are designed to provide additional protection
by supplementing the seat belts in certain frontal collisions depending
on the severity and type of collision. Advanced Front Air Bags are not
expected to reduce the risk of injury in rear, side, or rollover collisions.
• This vehicle may be equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air
Bags to provide enhanced protection to help protect an occupant during
a side impact.
• If the Air Bag Warning Light
is not on during starting, stays on, or
turns on while driving, have the vehicle serviced by an authorized service
center immediately.
• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details regarding the
Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).
WARNING!
• Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a
collision. The air bags work with your seat belt to restrain you
properly. In some collisions, the air bags won't deploy at all. Always
wear your seat belts even though you have air bags.
• Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during
Advanced Front Air Bag deployment could cause serious injury,
including death. Air bags need room to inflate. Sit back, comfortably
extending your arms to reach the steering wheel or instrument
panel.
• Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags need room to inflate. Do
not lean against the door or window. Sit upright in the center of the
seat.

Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
• To install a child restraint, first, pull enough of the seat belt webbing from
the retractor to route it through the belt path of the child restraint and
slide the latch plate into the buckle.
• Next, extract all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor and then allow
the belt to retract 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 attached to the
tether anchor on the rear of the seatback using the most direct path. For
the outboard seating positions, route the tether underneath the head
rest and attach the hook to the tether anchor located on the back of the
seat.
WARNING!
• In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a
projectile 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 infants in this position to be severely injured or killed.
GETTING STARTED
15
• The front passenger seats have a track memory which returns the seat to
just past the halfway point of the track, regardless of its original position.
• The recliner and easy entry levers should not be used during the automatic
returning of the seat to its fully upright position.
WARNING!
• Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The
sudden movement of the seat could cause you to lose control. The
seat belt might not be properly adjusted, and you could be severely
injured or killed. Only adjust a seat while the vehicle is parked.
• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no
longer resting 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 Seat
• Be sure that the front seats are fully upright and positioned forward. This
will allow the rear seat to fold down easily.
To Fold The Rear Seat
• Lift the seatback release lever and fold the seatback forward (two-door
models).
• Slowly flip the entire seat
(two-door models) forward.
GETTING STARTED
17
• Locate the pull strap, located on the outboard side of the seat, and pull it
toward you until the seatback releases (four-door models).
To Raise The Rear Seat
• Lift up on the seatback to return it to the upright position.
WARNING!
• It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or outside of
a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in these areas are more likely
to be severely injured or killed. Do not allow people to ride in any
area of your vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat belts.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt
properly.
• 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 you or others to be severely
injured or killed.

EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR)
• This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main
purpose of an EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like
situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a road obstacle, data
that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The
EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety
systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR
in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were
buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or
brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
• These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances
in which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE:EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash
situation occurs; no data are recorded by the EDR under normal driving
conditions and no personal data (e.g. name, gender, age, and crash location)
are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could
combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely
acquired during a crash investigation.
• To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and
access to the vehicle or the EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle
manufacturer, other parties such as law enforcement, that have the
special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the
vehicle or the EDR.
