An unlocked car is an invitation to
thieves. Always remove the Key
Fob from vehicle, cycle the ignition
OFF and lock all doors when leav-
ing the vehicle unattended.
SENTRY KEY®
The Sentry Key® Immobilizer System
prevents unauthorized vehicle oper-
ation by disabling the engine. The
system does not need to be armed or
activated. Operation is automatic,
regardless of whether the vehicle is
locked or unlocked.
The system uses a Key Fob with
Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) trans-
mitter, a Keyless Ignition Node (KIN)
and a RF receiver to prevent unau-
thorized vehicle operation. Therefore,
only Key Fobs that are programmed
to the vehicle can be used to start and
operate the vehicle.After placing the ignition in the ON/
RUN position, the Vehicle Security

is unattended. Once in the trunk,
young children may not be able to
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)escape, even if they entered through
the rear seat. If trapped in the trunk,
children can die from suffocation or
heat stroke.TRUNK EMERGENCY
RELEASE
As a security measure, a trunk inter-
nal emergency release lever is built
into the trunk latching mechanism. In
the event of an individual being
locked inside the trunk, the trunk can
be simply opened by pulling on the
glow-in-the-dark handle attached to

Some of the most important safety fea-
tures in your vehicle are the restraint
systems: Three-point lap and shoulder belts
for the driver and all passengers
Advanced Front Air Bags for driver and front passenger
Supplemental Driver Side Knee Air Bag
Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflat-
able Curtains (SABIC) for the driver
and passengers seated next to a
window Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags
An energy-absorbing steering col- umn and steering wheel
Active Hood System
Knee bolsters/blockers for front seat occupants

It also includes diagnostics that will
illuminate the instrument cluster Air
Bag Warning Light if a malfunction is
noted that could affect the air bag
system. The diagnostics also record
the nature of the malfunction.WARNING!
Ignoring the Air Bag Warning Light
in your instrument panel could
mean you won't have the air bags to
protect you in a collision. If the light
does not come on as a bulb check
when the ignition is first turned on,
stays on after you start the vehicle,
or if it comes on as you drive, have
an authorized dealer service the air
bag system immediately.
Driver And Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag Inflator Units
The Driver and Passenger Advanced
Front Air Bag Inflator Units are lo-
cated in the center of the steering
wheel and on the right side of the
instrument panel. When the ORC
detects a collision requiring the
Advanced Front Air Bags, it signals
the inflator units. A large quantity of non-toxic gas is generated to inflate
the Advanced Front Air Bags. Differ-
ent air bag inflation rates are possible,
based on several factors, including the
collision type and severity. The steer-
ing wheel hub trim cover and the
upper right side of the instrument
panel separate and fold out of the way
as the air bags inflate to their full size.
The air bags fully inflate in about
50 to 70 milliseconds. This is about
half of the time it takes to blink your
eyes. The air bags then quickly deflate
while helping to restrain the driver
and front passenger.
The Advanced Front Air Bag gas is
vented through the vent holes in the
sides of the air bag. In this way, the air
bags do not interfere with your con-
trol of the vehicle.
Supplemental Driver Side Knee
Air Bag Inflator Unit
The Supplemental Driver Side Knee
Air Bag unit is located in the instru-
ment panel trim beneath the steering
column. When the ORC detects a col-
lision requiring the Advanced Front
Air Bags, it signals the inflator units.A large quantity of non-toxic gas is
generated to inflate the Supplemental
Driver Side Knee Air Bag. The trim
cover separates and folds out of the
way allowing the air bag to inflate to
the full size. The air bag fully inflates
in about 15 to 20 milliseconds. The
Supplemental Driver Side Knee Air
Bag gas is vented through small vent
holes in the side of the air bag.
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side
Air Bag (SAB) Inflator Units
The Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side
Air Bags (SAB) are designed to acti-
vate only in certain side collisions.The ORC determines if a side collision
requires the side air bags to inflate,
based on the severity and type of col-
lision.
Based on the severity and type of col-
lision, the side air bag inflator on the
crash side of the vehicle may be trig-
gered, releasing a quantity of non-
toxic gas. The inflating SAB exits
through the seat seam into the space
between the occupant and the door.

DISPLAY WARNINGS AND
MAINTENANCE
“Clean Radar Sensor In Front Of
Vehicle” Warning
The ACC “Clean Radar Sensor In
Front Of Vehicle” warning will dis-
play when conditions temporarily limit system performance. This most
often occurs at times of poor visibility,
such as in snow or heavy rain. The
ACC system may also become tempo-
rarily blinded due to obstructions,
such as mud, dirt or ice. In these
cases, the EVIC will display “Clean
Radar Sensor In Front Of Vehicle”
and the system will deactivate.
The “Clean Radar Sensor In Front Of
Vehicle” message can sometimes be
displayed while driving in highly re-
flective areas (i.e. tunnels with reflec-
tive tiles, or ice and snow). The ACC
system will recover after the vehicle
has left these areas. Under rare condi-
tions, when the radar is not tracking
any vehicles or objects in its path this
warning may temporarily occur.
NOTE: If the ACC “Clean Radar
Sensor In Front Of Vehicle” warn-
ing is active Normal (Fixed Speed)
Cruise Control is still available.
For additional information refer to
“Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise
Control Mode” in this section.
