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.

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.

phones, electronics and other low
power devices requiring power up
to 150 Watts.
• The power inverter switch is located on the instrument panel below the
climate controls. To turn on the power outlet, press the switch once. The
indicator light will illuminate. Press the switch a second time to turn the
power inverter outlet off.
NOTE:The power inverter is designed with built-in overload protection. If
the power rating of 150 Watts is exceeded, the power inverter will
automatically shut down. Once the electrical device has been removed from
the outlet, the inverter should automatically reset. If the power rating
exceeds approximately 170 Watts, the power inverter may have to be reset
manually. To reset the inverter manually, unplug the device and plug it in
again. To avoid overloading the circuit, check the power ratings on electrical
devices prior to using the inverter.
WARNING!
To avoid being severely injured or killed: Do not use a three-prong
adaptor. Do not insert any objects into the receptacles. Do not touch
with wet hands. Close the lid when not in use. If this outlet is
mishandled, it may cause an electric shock and failure.
