When the RKE transmitter button is
pressed and the Flash Lights feature
is enabled, the tail lights will flash and
several audible beeps will occur to
signal that the liftgate is opening or
closing.WARNING!
During power operation, personal
injury or cargo damage may occur.
Ensure the liftgate travel path is
clear. Make sure the liftgate is closed
and latched before driving away.
NOTE:
If anything obstructs the power liftgate while it is closing or
opening, the liftgate will auto-
matically reverse to the closed or open position, provided it meets
sufficient resistance.
There are also pinch sensors at- tached to the side of the liftgate
opening. Light pressure any-
where along these strips will
cause the liftgate to return to the
open position.
During power operation, whether liftgate is fully open or
fully closed, the liftgate chime
will beep several times indicat-
ing power operation is in prog-
ress.
The power liftgate must be in the full open or close positions for
any of the buttons to operate. If
the liftgate is not in the full open
or close positions, it must be
opened or closed manually.
If the liftgate release button is activated while the power lift-
gate is closing, the liftgate will
reverse to the full open position.
The power liftgate buttons will not operate if the shift lever is in
gear or the vehicle speed is
above 0 km/h. The power liftgate will not oper-
ate in temperatures below 24°C
or temperatures above 62°C. Be
sure to remove any buildup of
snow or ice from the liftgate be-
fore pressing any of the power
liftgate buttons.
If the power liftgate encounters multiple obstructions within the
same cycle, the system will auto-
matically stop and must be
opened or closed manually.
WARNING!
Driving with the liftgate open canallow poisonous exhaust gases
into your vehicle. You and your
passengers could be injured by
these fumes. Keep the liftgate
closed when you are operating the
vehicle.
If you are required to drive with
the liftgate open, make sure that
all windows are closed, and the
climate control blower switch is
set at high speed. Do not use the
recirculation mode.

WARNING!(Continued)
Do not put anything on or around
the air bag covers or attempt to
open them manually. You may
damage the air bags and you
could be injured because the air
bags may no longer be functional.
The protective covers for the air
bag cushions are designed to open
only when the air bags are inflat-
ing.
Do not drill, cut or tamper with
the knee bolster (for versions/
markets, where provided) in any
way.
Do not mount any accessories to
the knee bolster (for versions/
markets, where provided) such as
alarm lights, stereos, citizen band
radios, etc.
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side
Air Bags (SAB)
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air
Bags (SAB) may provide enhanced
protection to help protect an occupant during a side impact. The SAB is
marked with an air bag label sewn
into the outboard side of the front
seats.
When the air bag deploys, it opens the
seam between the front and side of the
seat's trim cover. Each air bag deploys
independently; a left side impact de-
ploys the left air bag only and a right-
side impact deploys the right air bag
only.
Supplemental Side Air Bag
Inflatable Curtain (SABIC)
SABIC air bags may offer side-impact
and vehicle rollover protection to
front and rear seat outboard occu-pants in addition to that provided by
the body structure. Each air bag fea-
tures inflated chambers placed adja-
cent to the head of each outboard
occupant that reduce the potential for
side-impact head injuries. The SABIC
deploy downward, covering both win-
dows on the impact side.
NOTE:
Should a vehicle rollover occur,
the pretensioners and/or SAB
and SABIC air bags on both
sides of the vehicle may deploy.
Air Bag covers may not be obvi- ous in the interior trim, but they
will open during air bag deploy-
ment.
Being too close to the SAB and SABIC air bags during deploy-
ment could cause you to be se-
verely injured or killed.
The system includes side impact sen-
sors that are calibrated to deploy the
side air bags during impacts that re-
quire air bag occupant protection.
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bag Label

occupant and the door. The SAB fully
inflate in about 10 milliseconds. The
side air bag moves at a very high
speed and with such a high force that
it could injure you if you are not
seated properly, or if items are posi-
tioned in the area where the side air
bag inflates. This especially applies to
children.
Supplemental Side Air Bag
Inflatable Curtain (SABIC)
Inflator Units
During collisions where the impact is
confined to a particular area of the
side of the vehicle, the ORC may de-
ploy the SABIC air bags, depending
on the severity and type of collision. In
these events, the ORC will deploy the
SABIC only on the impact side of the
vehicle.
A quantity of non-toxic gas is gener-
ated to inflate the side curtain air bag.
The inflating side curtain air bag
pushes the outside edge of the head-
liner out of the way and covers the
window. The air bag inflates in about
30 milliseconds (about one-quarter of
the time that it takes to blink your
eyes) with enough force to injure youif you are not belted and seated prop-
erly, or if items are positioned in the
area where the side curtain air bag
inflates. This especially applies to
children. The side curtain air bag is
only about 9 cm thick when it is in-
flated.
Because air bag sensors estimate de-
celeration over time, vehicle speed
and damage are not good indicators of
whether or not an air bag should have
deployed.
NOTE:
In a rollover the pretensioners
and/or SAB and SABIC air bags
may deploy on both sides of the
vehicle.
Front And Side Impact Sensors
In front and side impacts, impact sen-
sors can aid the ORC in determining
appropriate response to impact
events.
Enhanced Accident Response
System
In the event of an impact causing air
bag deployment, if the communica-
tion network remains intact, and the
power remains intact, depending on
the nature of the event the ORC will
determine whether to have the En-
hanced Accident Response System
perform the following functions:
Cut off fuel to the engine.
Flash hazard lights as long as the
battery has power or until the igni-
tion key is turned off.
Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has
power or until the ignition key is
removed.
Unlock the doors automatically.
In order to reset the Enhanced Acci-
dent Response System functions after
an event, the ignition switch must be
changed from IGN ON to IGN OFF.
If A Deployment Occurs
The Advanced Front Air Bags are de-
signed to deflate immediately after
deployment.
NOTE:
Front and/or side air bags will not
deploy in all collisions. This does
not mean something is wrong with
the air bag system.

WARNING!(Continued)
Always make sure that objects
cannot fall into the driver footwell
while the vehicle is moving. Ob-
jects can become trapped under
the brake pedal and accelerator
pedal causing a loss of vehicle
control.
If required, mounting posts must
be properly installed, if not
equipped from the factory.
Failure to properly follow floor mat
installation or mounting can cause
interference with the brake pedal
and accelerator pedal operation
causing loss of control of the vehicle. Periodic Safety Checks You
Should Make Outside The
Vehicle
Tires
Examine tires for excessive tread wear
and uneven wear patterns. Check for
stones, nails, glass, or other objects
lodged in the tread or sidewall. In-
spect the tread for cuts and cracks.
Inspect sidewalls for cuts, cracks and
bulges. Check the wheel nuts for
tightness. Check the tires (including
spare) for proper cold inflation pres-
sure.
Lights
Have someone observe the operation
of exterior lights while you work the controls. Check turn signal and high
beam indicator lights on the instru-
ment panel.
Door Latches
Check for positive closing, latching,
and locking.
Fluid Leaks
Check area under vehicle after over-
night parking for fuel, engine coolant,
oil, or other fluid leaks. Also, if gaso-
line fumes are detected or if fuel,
power steering fluid, or brake fluid
leaks are suspected, the cause should
be located and corrected immediately.
