A WORD ABOUT YOUR
KEYS
The authorized dealer that sold you
your vehicle has the key code num-
bers for your vehicle locks. These
numbers can be used to order dupli-
cate keys from your authorized dealer.
Ask your authorized dealer for these
numbers and keep them in a safe
place.

the ignition switch to the ACC posi-
tion, push the key and cylinder in-
ward, rotate the key to the LOCK
position, and remove the key.NOTE:
 If you try to remove the key be-
fore you place the shift lever in
PARK, the key may become
trapped temporarily in the igni-
tion switch lock cylinder. If this
occurs, rotate the key to the right
slightly, then remove the key as
described. If a malfunction oc-
curs, the system will trap the key
in the ignition switch lock cylin-
der to warn you that this safety
feature is inoperable. The en-
gine can be started and stopped,
but the key cannot be removed
until you obtain service.  The power window switches, ra-
dio, hands–free system , and
power outlets will remain active
for up to 10 minutes after the
ignition switch is turned to the

front door will cancel this fea-
ture. The time for this feature is
programmable. Refer to “Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC)/Personal Settings
(Customer-Programmable Fea-
tures)” in “Understanding Your
Instrument Panel” for further
information.

WARNING!(Continued)
 Allowing children to be in a ve-
hicle unattended is dangerous for
a number of reasons. A child or
others could be seriously or fatally
injured. Children should be
warned not to touch the parking
brake, brake pedal or the shift
lever.
 Do not leave the key fob in or near
the vehicle, and do not leave the
ignition in the ACC or ON/RUN
position. A child could operate
power windows, other controls, or
move the vehicle.CAUTION!
An unlocked car is an invitation to
thieves. Always remove key from the
ignition and lock all doors when
leaving the vehicle unattended.
KEY-IN-IGNITION
REMINDER
Opening the driver's door when the
key is in the ignition sounds a signal to
remind you to remove the key. NOTE:
 The Key-In-Ignition reminder
only sounds when the ignition
key is placed in the LOCK or
ACC position.
 With either/both front doors open and a key in the ignition,
the power door lock buttons on
the interior trim panel are dis-
abled. This is an attempt to limit
locking the keys in the vehicle.

cylinder which is located in the driv-
er's door.
You can insert the key with either side
up. To lock the door, turn the key

SENTRY KEY®
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer System
prevents unauthorized vehicle opera-
tion by disabling the engine. The sys- tem does not need to be armed or
activated. Operation is automatic, re-
gardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
The system uses ignition keys which
have an embedded electronic chip
(transponder) to prevent unauthor-
ized vehicle operation. Therefore,
only keys that are programmed to the
vehicle can be used to start and oper-
ate the vehicle. The system will shut
the engine off in two seconds if some-
one uses an invalid key to start the
engine.
NOTE:
A key which has not been pro-
grammed is also considered an in-
valid key, even if it is cut to fit the
ignition switch lock cylinder for
that vehicle.
During normal operation, after turn-
ing on the ignition switch, the Vehicle
Security Light will turn on for three
seconds for a bulb check. If the light
remains on after the bulb check, it
indicates that there is a problem with
the electronics. In addition, if the light
begins to flash after the bulb check, it

 Front seat belts incorporate preten- sioners that may enhance occupant
protection by managing occupant

 Rear passenger seat belts include Automatic Locking Retractors
(ALRs), which lock the seat belt
webbing into position by extending
the belt all the way out and then
adjusting the belt to the desired
length to restrain a child seat or
secure a large item in a seat.
Please pay close attention to the infor-
mation in this section. It tells you how
to use your restraint system properly,
to keep you and your passengers as
safe as possible.
If you will be carrying children too
small for adult-sized seat belts, the
seat belts or the ISOFIX feature also
can be used to hold infant and child
restraint systems. For more informa-
tion, refer to ISOFIX — Child Seat
Anchorage System. NOTE:
The Advanced Front Air Bags have
a multistage inflator design. This
allows the air bag to have different
rates of inflation based on several
factors, including the severity and
type of collision.
Here are some simple steps you can
take to minimize the risk of harm
from a deploying air bag:
1.
Children 12 years old and un-
der should always ride buckled up
in a rear seat.
WARNING!
Infants in rear facing child restraints
should never ride in the front seat of
a vehicle with a passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag. An air bag deploy-
ment can cause severe injury or
death to infants in that position.
Children that are not big enough to
wear the vehicle seat belt properly
(see section on Child Restraints)
should be secured in the rear seat in
child restraints or belt-positioning
booster seats. Older children who do
not use child restraints or belt- positioning booster seats should ride
properly buckled up in the rear seat.
Never allow children to slide the
shoulder belt behind them or under
their arm.
You should read the instructions pro-
vided with your child restraint to
make sure that you are using it prop-
erly.
2.
All occupants should always
wear their lap and shoulder belts
properly.
3. The driver and front passenger
seats should be moved back as far
as practical to allow the Advanced
Front Air Bags room to inflate.
4. Do not lean against the door or
window. If your vehicle has side
air bags, and deployment occurs,
the side air bags will inflate force-
fully into the space between you
and the door.
5. If the air bag system in this ve-
hicle needs to be modified to ac-
commodate a disabled person,
contact the Customer Center.
