VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
To Arm:
• Lock the door using either the power door lock switch (one door must be open) or theLOCK button on the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmitter (doors can be open or
closed), and close all doors.
NOTE:
The Vehicle Security Alarm will not arm if you lock the doors with the manual door lock
plungers.
The Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster will flash for 16 seconds. This shows
that the Vehicle Security Alarm is arming. During this period, if a door is opened, the ignition
is cycled to ON/RUN, or the power door locks are unlocked in any manner, the Vehicle
Security Alarm will automatically disarm.
NOTE:
Once armed, the Vehicle Security Alarm disables the unlock switch on the driver door trim
panel and passenger door trim panel.
To Disarm The System:
• Push the Key Fob UNLOCK button or cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to protect your vehicle; however, you can create
conditions where the Vehicle Security Alarm will give you a false alarm. If one of the
previously described arming sequences has occurred, the Vehicle Security Alarm will arm
regardless of whether you are in the vehicle or not. If you remain in the vehicle and open a
door, the alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed and the battery becomes disconnected the Vehicle
Security Alarm will remain armed when the battery is reconnected. The exterior lights will
flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm the Vehicle Security Alarm.
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 collision. 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.

LATCH — Lower Anchors And Tethers For CHildren
• Your vehicle is equipped with the child restraint anchorage system called LATCH, whichstands for Lower Anchors and Tethers for CHildren.
• The second row seating positions and the third row center position have lower anchors and top tether anchors.
• You may use the LATCH anchorage system until the combined weight of the child and the child restraint is 65 lbs (29.5 kg). Use the seat belt and tether anchor instead of the
LATCH system once the combined weight is more than 65 lbs (29.5 kg).
•
The lower anchorages are round bars that are found at the rear of the seat cushion
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 gap
between the seatback and seat cushion.
•
In addition, there are tether strap anchors located behind each rear seatback, near
to the floor.
• If a child restraint installed in the center position blocks the seat belt webbing or
buckle for the outboard position, do not
use that outboard position. If a child seat
in the center position blocks the outboard
LATCH anchors or seat belt, do not install
a child seat in that outboard position.

Installing The Child Restraints Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
• Except for the center position in the third row, all of the seat belts in the passengerseating positions are equipped with a Switchable Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR).
The third row center position is equipped with a cinching latch plate. Both types of seat
belts are designed to keep the lap portion of the seat belt tight around the child restraint.
Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally, and pull it tight
if necessary.
• Always use the tether anchor when using the seat belt to install a forward facing child restraint, up to the recommended weight limit of the child restraint.
Cargo Van Option Only
• The front passenger seating position is equipped with a Switchable Automatic
Locking Retractor (ALR) that is designed
to keep the lap portion of the seat belt
tight around the child restraint. Any seat
belt system will loosen with time, so
check the belt occasionally, and pull it
tight if necessary.
• There is a tether strap anchor located on the front passenger seatback, near the
floor.
To Install A Child Seat Using An ALR:
1. Pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to pass it through the belt path of
the child restraint. Do not twist the belt webbing in the belt path.
2. Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.”
3. Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion tight against the child seat.
4. To lock the seat belt, pull down on the shoulder part of the belt until you have pulled all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor. Then, allow the webbing to retract back into the
retractor. As the webbing retracts, you will hear a clicking sound. This means the seat
belt is now in the Automatic Locking mode.
5. Try to pull the webbing out of the retractor. If it is locked, you should not be able to pull out any webbing. If the retractor is not locked, repeat the last step.
6. Finally, pull up on any extra webbing to tighten the lap portion around the child restraint while you push the child restraint rearward and downward into the vehicle seat.
