PREMIUM SECURITY SYSTEM (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The Premium Security system monitors the doors,
hood latch, and liftgate for unauthorized entry and the
ignition switch for unauthorized operation. The system
also includes a dual function intrusion sensor and
vehicle tilt sensor. The intrusion sensor monitors the
vehicle interior for motion. The vehicle tilt sensor
monitors the vehicle for any tilting actions (tow away,
tire removal, ferry transport, etc).
In the event that something triggers the security sys-
tem, the headlights will turn on and the turn signal and
side repeater lights will flash for 34 seconds. The
system will repeat this sequence for up to 8 security
violations in any mode (door ajar, motion, hood ajar,
etc.) before having to rearm the system. At the end of
any particular trigger event, the lights will continue to
flash for 26 seconds.
TO ARM THE SYSTEM
Follow these steps to arm the theft alarm:
1. Make sure the vehicle ignition system is "OFF".(refer to "Starting Procedures" in "Starting And
Driving" for further information).
2. Perform one of the following methods to lock the vehicle: Press LOCK on the interior power door lock
switch with the driver and/or passenger door open.
Press the LOCK button on the exterior Passive
Entry Door Handle with a valid Key Fob available in
the same exterior zone (refer to "Keyless Enter-N-
Go™" in "Knowing Your Vehicle" for further infor-
mation).
Press the LOCK button on the Remote Keyless
Entry (RKE) transmitter.
3. If any doors are open, close them.
NOTE:
Once the security system is armed, it remains in that state until you disarm it by following either of the
disarming procedures described. If a power loss oc-
curs after arming the system, you must disarm the
system after restoring power to prevent alarm acti-
vation.
The ultrasonic intrusion sensor (motion detector) actively monitors your vehicle every time you arm
the security system. If you prefer, you can turn OFF
the ultrasonic intrusion sensor and vehicle tilt sensor
when arming the security system. To do so, press the
LOCK button on the RKE transmitter three times
within 5 seconds of arming the system (while the
Vehicle Security Light is flashing rapidly).

SAFETY TIPS
TRANSPORTING PASSENGERS
NEVER TRANSPORT PASSENGERS IN THE CARGO
AREA.
WARNING!
Do
not leave children or animals in-
side parked vehicles in hot weather. In-
terior heat build-up may cause serious injury or
death.
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a cargo
area, inside or outside of a vehicle. In a collision,
people riding in these areas are more likely to be
seriously injured or killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any area of your
vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat
belts.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat
and using a seat belt properly.
(Continued)(Continued)
On seven passenger models, do not drive the
vehicle with the second row passenger seat in the
easy entry/exit position (seat cushion flipped up-
ward and seat moved forward), as this position is
only intended for entering and exiting the third
row seats. Failure to follow this warning may
result in personal injury.
On seven passenger models, do not allow a
passenger to sit in a third row seat with the
second row seatback(s) folded flat . In a collision,
the passenger could slide underneath the seat
belt and be seriously or even fatally injured.

TIREFIT Usage Precautions
Replace the TIREFIT Sealant Bottle (1) and SealantHose (6) prior to the expiration date (printed on the
bottle label) to assure optimum operation of the
system. Refer to “Sealing a Tire with TIREFIT” sec-
tion (F) “Sealant Bottle and Hose Replacement”.
The Sealant Bottle (1) and Sealant Hose (6) are a one tire application use. After each use, always replace
these components immediately at an authorized
dealer.
When the TIREFIT sealant is in a liquid form, clean water, and a damp cloth will remove the material
from the vehicle or tire and wheel components.
Once the sealant dries, it can easily be peeled off and
properly discarded.
For optimum performance, make sure the valve stem on the wheel is free of debris before connecting the
TIREFIT kit.
You can use the TIREFIT air pump to inflate bicycle tires. The kit also comes with two needles, located in
the Accessory Storage Compartment (on the bot-
tom of the air pump) for inflating sport balls, rafts, or
similar inflatable items. However, use only the Air
Pump Hose (7) and make sure the Mode Select Knob
(5) is in the Air Mode when inflating such items to
avoid injecting sealant into them. The TIREFIT Seal- ant is only intended to seal punctures less than 6 mm
diameter in the tread of your vehicle.
Do not lift or carry the TIREFIT kit by the hoses.
WARNING!
Do
not attempt to seal a tire on the
side of the vehicle close to traffic . Pull
far enough off the road to avoid the danger of
being hit when using the TIREFIT kit .
Do not use TIREFIT or drive the vehicle under
the following circumstances:
– If the puncture in the tire tread is approxi-
mately 6 mm or larger.
– If the tire has any sidewall damage.
– If the tire has any damage from driving with
extremely low tire pressure.
– If the tire has any damage from driving on a
flat tire.
– If the wheel has any damage.
– If you are unsure of the condition of the tire or
the wheel.
Keep TIREFIT away from open flame or heat
source.
