Heated outside mirrors
Both mirrors are heated
automatically to remove ice, mist
and fog when the rear window
defrost is activated.
Do not remove ice from the
mirrors with a scraper or
attempt to readjust the mirror
glass if it is frozen in place.
These actions could cause damage to the glass and mirrors.
Do not clean the housing or glass of any mirror with harsh
abrasives, fuel or other petroleum-based cleaning products.
Signal Indicator Mirrors
When the turn signal is activated, the outer portion of the appropriate
mirror housing will blink. This provides an additional warning to other
drivers that your vehicle is about to turn.
Fold-Away Mirrors
Fold the side mirrors in carefully
when driving through a narrow
space, like an automatic car wash.
Blind Spot Mirrors
Your vehicle is equipped with blind spot mirrors. Refer toBlind Spot
Mirrorsin theDrivingchapter.
SPEED CONTROL
With speed control set, you can maintain a set speed without keeping
your foot on the accelerator pedal.
WARNING:Do not use the speed control in heavy traffic or on
roads that are winding, slippery or unpaved.

The remote start system will not work if:
•the vehicle is on
•the alarm system is triggered
•the feature has been disabled
•the hood is not closed
•two remote vehicle starts have already been attempted within the last
hour
•the vehicle is not in P (Park)
•the vehicle battery voltage is too low
•the powertrain malfunction/reduced power indicator was on the last
time the vehicle was driven.
Remote Starting the Vehicle
Note:Each button press must be done within three seconds of each
other. The vehicle will not remote start if this sequence is not followed
and the horn will not chirp.
The label on your transmitter
details the starting procedure. To
remote start the vehicle:
1. Press the lock button to lock all the doors.
2. Press the remote start button twice. The exterior lamps will flash
twice.
The horn will chirp if the system fails to start (unless quiet start is on).
Quiet start will run the blower fan at a slower speed to reduce noise. It
can be switched on or off. Refer to theMessage centerin the
Instrument Clusterchapter.
Note:If the vehicle has been remote started you must press the
START/STOP button on the instrument panel once while applying the
brake pedal before driving the vehicle.
The power windows will be inhibited during the remote start and the
radio will not turn on automatically.

How does the side air curtain system work?
The design and development of the
side air curtain system included
recommended testing procedures
that were developed by a group of
automotive safety experts known as
the Side Airbag Technical Working
Group. These recommended testing
procedures help reduce the risk of
injuries related to the deployment
of side airbags (including side air
curtain systems).
The side air curtain system consists
of the following:
•An inflatable curtain with a gas
generator concealed behind the
headliner and above the doors.
•The headliner will flex to open above the side doors to allow air
curtain deployment.
•The same warning light, electronic control and diagnostic unit as used
for the front airbags.
•Two pressure sensors located in the front doors.
•Two crash sensors located on the rocker panel behind the lower C
pillar.
Side air curtains and side airbags, in combination with safety belts, can
help reduce the risk of severe injuries in the event of a significant side
impact collision.
Children 12 years old and under should always be properly restrained in
the rear seats. The side air curtain will not interfere with children
restrained using a properly installed child or booster seat because it is
designed to inflate downward from the headliner above the doors along
the side window openings.
The side air curtains are mounted to the sheet metal above the first and
second row seats. In certain lateral collisions, the air curtain and
seat-mounted side airbag on the side affected by the collision will be
inflated, except that the passenger sensing system will deactivate the

passenger seat-mounted side airbag if it detects an empty unbuckled
passenger seat. The air curtain was designed to inflate between the side
window area and occupant to further enhance the head protection
provided to occupants in side impact collisions. The seat-mounted side
airbag was designed to inflate between the door panel and occupant to
further enhance the protection provided occupants in side impact
collisions.
The side air curtain system SRS is designed to activate when the vehicle
sustains lateral deceleration sufficient to cause the sensors to close an
electrical circuit that initiates air curtain and seat-mounted side airbag
inflation.
The fact that the side air curtain and seat-mounted side airbag did not
inflate in a collision does not mean that something is wrong with the
system. Rather, it means the forces were not of the type sufficient to
cause activation. The side air curtain system is designed to inflate in side
impact collisions, not roll-over, rear impact, frontal or near-frontal
collisions, unless the collision causes sufficient lateral deceleration.
WARNING:Several air bag system components get hot after
inflation. Do not touch them after inflation.
WARNING:If the side air curtain has deployed,the air curtain
will not function again. The side air curtain system
(including the A, B and C pillar trim and headliner) must be
inspected and serviced by an authorized dealer.If the air curtain is
not replaced, the unrepaired area will increase the risk of injury in a
collision.

Crashes
A crash or impact significant enough to require an emergency response
for conventional vehicles would also require the same response for an
electric or hybrid-electric vehicle.
If possible
•Move your car to a safe, nearby location and remain on the scene.
•Roll down windows before shutting vehicle off.
•Place vehicle in Park, set parking brake, turn off the vehicle, activate
hazard lights, and move key(s) at least 16 feet (5 meters) away from
the vehicle.
Always
•Call 911 if assistance is needed and advise that an electric or
hybrid-electric vehicle is involved.
•Do not touch exposed electrical components or the engine
compartment, as a shock hazard may exist.
•Avoid contact with leaking fluids and gases, and remain out of the way
of oncoming traffic until emergency responders arrive.
•When emergency responders arrive, tell them that the vehicle involved
is an electric vehicle or hybrid-electric vehicle.
Fires
As with any vehicle, call 911 immediately if you see sparks, smoke, or
flames coming from the vehicle.
•Exit the vehicle immediately.
•Advise 911 that an electric or hybrid-electric vehicle is involved.
•As with any vehicle fire, do not inhale smoke, vapors, or gas from the
vehicle, as they may be hazardous.
•Remain a safe distance upwind and uphill from the vehicle fire.
•Stay out of the roadway and stay out of the way of any oncoming
traffic while awaiting the arrival of emergency responders.
