POWER DOOR LOCKS
• The vehicles power door locks are activated by moving the inside door handles.
NOTE:
The vehicle’s door must be closed to initiate this feature.
• Push or pull the door handle to lock or unlock the doors and liftgate when the
doors are closed.
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 colli-
sion. 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. Dam-
aged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the sys-
tem. 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 col-
lision.
• 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 pas-
sengers, or you can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others
in your vehicle are buckled up properly.

3. Uncoil the power plug and insert the plug into the vehicles 12 Volt power outlet.
4. Check the pressure in the tire by reading the Pressure Gauge (3).
•If tire pressure is less than 19 psi (1.3 kPa), the tire is too badly dam-
aged. Do not attempt to drive the vehicle further. Call for assistance.

3. Place the TIREFIT kit in its proper storage area in the vehicle.
4. Have the tire inspected and repaired or replaced at the earliest opportunity at an
authorized studio or tire service center.
5. Replace the Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6) assembly at your authorized
studio as soon as possible. Refer to “(F) Sealant Bottle and Hose Replacement.”
NOTE:

TOWING A DISABLED VEHICLE
With Ignition Key
Manual Transmission
• Vehicle can be flat towed (all four wheels on the ground) with the transmission in
NEUTRAL.
• Vehicle can be towed with the front wheels elevated.
• Vehicle can be towed on a flatbed truck (all wheels off the ground).
NOTE:If it is necessary to use the accessories while being towed (wipers, defrosters, etc.), the keymust be in the ON/RUN position. Make certain the transmission remains in NEUTRAL.
Without The Ignition Key
• Special care must be taken when the vehicle is towed with the ignition in the
OFF/LOCK position. A dolly should be used under the front wheels if the rear
wheels are raised. Proper towing equipment is necessary to prevent damage to
the vehicle.
CAUTION!
• Failure to follow these towing methods can cause severe transmission dam-
age. Such damage is not covered by the New Vehicle Limited Warranty.
• If the vehicle being towed requires steering, the ignition switch must be in the
ON/RUN position.
• Do not attempt to use sling-type equipment when towing. When securing
the vehicle to a flatbed truck, do not attach to front or rear suspension com-
ponents. Damage to your vehicle may result from improper towing.
ENHANCED ACCIDENT RESPONSE SYSTEM
• In the event of an impact causing air bag deployment, if the communication net-
work remains intact, and the power remains intact, depending on the nature of
the event the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) will determine whether to have
the Enhanced 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 ignition 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.
