WARNING!
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.Allowing children to be in a vehicle 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, or in a location accessible to children,
and do not leave a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go ™ in the ACC or ON/RUN
mode. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
REMOTE START
• Press the REMOTE START buttonx2on the Key Fob twice within five seconds. Pressing
the REMOTE START button a third time shuts the engine off.
• To drive the vehicle, press the UNLOCK button and cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
• With remote start, the engine will only run for 15 minutes (timeout) unless the ignition is cycled to the ON/RUN position.
•
The vehicle must be cycled to the ON/RUN position after two consecutive timeouts.
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 transmitters away from children. Operation of the Remote Start
System, windows, door locks or other controls could cause you and others to be
severely injured or killed.
KEYLESS ENTER-N-GO™

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) — AIR BAGS
• This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for both the driver and right front passenger asa 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 several factors, including 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 is equipped with Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains to protect the driver, front and rear passengers sitting next to a window.
• This vehicle is 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 Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains and 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.
• Being too close to the Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtain and/or Seat-
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, if available.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 every Canadian province requires that small children ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
NOTE:
For additional information, refer to www.seatcheck.org or call 1–866–SEATCHECK. Canadian
residents, should refer to Transport Canada’s website for additional information. http://
www.tc.gc.ca/eng/roadsafety/safedrivers-childsafety-index-53.htm
Installing The LATCH-Compatible Child Restraint System
• Your vehicle's second row passenger seats are equipped with the child restraint anchor- age system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for CHildren.
• Child seats with fixed lower attachments can be installed in the outboard positions only. Child seats with flexible lower attachments can be used in all three seating positions.
• Never use the same lower anchorage to attach more than one child restraint. If you are
installing LATCH-compatible child restraints next to each other, you must use the seat
belt for the center position. You can then use either the LATCH anchors or the vehicle’s
seat belt for installing the next child seat in the outboard position.
• The LATCH lower anchorages are round bars, located at the rear of the seat cush-
ion where it meets the seatback. They are
just visible when you lean into the rear
seat to install the child restraint. You will
easily feel them if you run your finger
along the intersection of the seatback
and seat cushion surfaces.
• In addition, there are tether strap anchor- ages behind each rear seating position
located in the panel between the rear
seatback and the rear window. These
tether strap anchorages are under a plastic cover.

WARNING!
• Do not let children play with the sunroof, or leave children unattended in the vehiclewith the key fob in or near the vehicle. Occupants, particularly unattended children,
can become entrapped by the power sunroof while operating the power sunroof
switch. Such entrapment may result in serious injury or death.
• In a collision, there is a greater risk of being thrown from a vehicle with an open
sunroof. You could also be severely injured or killed. Always fasten your seat belt
properly and make sure all passengers are properly secured.
• Do not allow small children to operate the sunroof. Never allow your fingers, other
body parts, or any object to project through the sunroof opening. Injury may result.
WIND BUFFETING
• Wind buffeting can be described as a helicopter-type percussion sound. If buffeting
occurs with the rear windows open, adjust the front and rear windows together.
• If buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening, or adjust any window. This will minimize buffeting.
SIX-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
• This vehicle may be equipped with a fuel efficient Dual-Dry Clutch, Six Speed AutomaticTransmission. This transmission offers a sportier driving experience with faster
AutoStick® shifting.
• During low-speed driving conditions in first gear, vehicle momentum changes may feel exaggerated in response to changes in accelerator pedal position. This behavior is
normal and is similar to vehicles equipped with a manual transmission.
NOTE:
• Very aggressive driving may result in some clutch odor similar to a manual transmission. An active warning message will display in the Instrument Cluster if cool down actions are
needed.
•
The first few shifts on a new vehicle may be somewhat abrupt. This is a normal condition,
and precision shifts will develop within a few hundred miles (kilometers).
• At low speeds you may hear mechanical noises similar to a manual transmission as the transmission changes gears. These noises are normal and will not damage the trans-
mission.
• Before and after the engine is started, you may hear a hydraulic pump for a short period of time. This noise is normal and will not damage the transmission.
Shifting The Transmission
• The transmission shift lever position (PRND) is displayed both on the shift lever and in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC).
