WARNING!
Never leave children unattended in
a vehicle. Do not leave the key fob
in or near the vehicle, and do not
leave the ignition of a vehicle
equipped with Keyless Enter-N-
Go™ in the ACC or ON/RUN
mode. Occupants, particularly un-
attended children, can become en-
trapped by the windows while op-
erating the power window switches.
Such entrapment may result in se-
rious injury or death.
AUTO-Down Feature
The driver door power window switch
and some model passenger door
power window switches have an
AUTO-down feature. Press the win-
dow switch to the second detent, re-
lease, and the window will go down
automatically.
To open the window part way, press
the window switch to the first detent
and release it when you want the win-
dow to stop. To stop the window from going all the
way down during the AUTO-down
operation, pull up on the switch
briefly.
AUTO-Up Feature With
Anti-Pinch Protection (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
Lift the window switch to the second
detent, release, and the window will
go up automatically.
To stop the window from going all the
way up during the AUTO-up opera-
tion, push down on the switch briefly.
To close the window part way, lift the
window switch to the first detent and
release it when you want the window
to stop.
NOTE:
If the window runs into any ob-
stacle during auto-closure, it
will reverse direction and then
go back down. Remove the ob-
stacle and use the window
switch again to close the win-
dow. Any impact due to rough road
conditions may trigger the auto-
reverse function unexpectedly
during auto-closure. If this hap-
pens, pull the switch lightly to
the first detent and hold to close
the window manually.
WARNING!
There is no anti-pinch protection
when the window is almost closed.
Be sure to clear all objects from the
window before closing.
Reset Auto-Up
Should the Auto Up feature stop
working, the window may need to be
reset. To reset Auto Up:
1. Make sure the door is fully closed.
2. Pull the window switch up to close
the window completely and continue
to hold the switch up for an additional
two seconds after the window is
closed.

ACC position, or not in the ignition,
the Active Hood system is not on and
the Active Hood will not deploy.
The ORC contains a backup power
supply system that may deploy the
actuators even if the battery loses
power or it becomes disconnected
prior to deployment.
Service Active Hood System
If the ORC has deployed the Active
Hood, or if it detects a malfunction in
any part of the system, it turns on the
Air Bag Warning Light and it will
display the “SERVICE ACTIVE
HOOD” message in the Electronic Ve-
hicle Information Center (EVIC), for
versions/markets, where provided. A
single chime will sound if the Air Bag
Warning Light comes on again after
initial startup. It also includes diag-
nostics that will illuminate the Air Bag
Warning Light if a malfunction is
noted that could affect the Active
Hood system. The diagnostics also re-
cord the nature of the malfunction. If
the Air Bag Warning Light is illumi-
nated, or if “SERVICE ACTIVE
HOOD” appears in the EVIC, see
your authorized dealer.In the event of an Active Hood deploy-
ment, the vehicle should be serviced
by an authorized dealer. The hood
hinges must be serviced and the ac-
tuator assemblies replaced to restore
system functionality.
Following an Active Hood deploy-
ment, the hood position can be tem-
porarily reset by pushing down at the
rear edge over the hood hinges as the
internal pressure of each actuator is
relieved. The temporary hood reset
position is intended to improve for-
ward driving visibility over the hood
until the vehicle can be serviced. The
temporary hood reset position will
leave the hood approximately 5 mm
above the fender surface.
The front bumper assembly may af-
fect proper operation of the Active
Hood system. The front bumper com-
ponents should be inspected for dam-
age and replaced if necessary in the
event of a frontal impact, even if it
occurs at a low rate of speed.
NOTE: After any Active Hood de-
ployment, the vehicle should be
taken to an authorized dealer im-
mediately.
CAUTION!
To prevent possible damage, do not
slam the rear of the hood to reset it.
Press the rear of the hood down
until an audible and tactile detent is
detected (approximately 5 mm
above the fender). This should se-
cure both hood hinge reset mecha-
nisms.

The inflating side curtain air bag
pushes the outside edge of the head-
liner out of the way and covers the
window. The air bag inflates in about
30 milliseconds (about one-quarter of
the time that it takes to blink your
eyes) with enough force to injure you
if you are not belted and seated prop-
erly, or if items are positioned in the
area where the side curtain air bag
inflates. This especially applies to
children. The side curtain air bag is
only about 9 cm thick when it is in-
flated.
Because air bag sensors estimate de-
celeration over time, vehicle speed
and damage are not good indicators of
whether or not an air bag should have
deployed.
Front And Side Impact Sensors
In front and side impacts, impact sen-
sors can aid the ORC in determining
appropriate response to impact
events.Enhanced Accident Response
System
In the event of an impact causing air
bag deployment, if the communica-
tion network remains intact, and the
power remains intact, depending on
the nature of the event the ORC will
determine whether to have the En-
hanced 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 igni-
tion is cycled 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.
In order to reset the Enhanced Acci-
dent Response System functions after
an event, the ignition switch must be
changed from IGN ON to IGN OFF. If A Deployment Occurs
The Advanced Front Air Bags are de-
signed to deflate immediately after
deployment.
NOTE: Front and/or side air bags
will not deploy in all collisions.
This does not mean something is
wrong with the air bag system.
If you do have a collision, which de-
ploys the air bags, any or all of the
following may occur:
The nylon air bag material may
sometimes cause abrasions and/or
skin reddening to the driver and
front passenger as the air bags de-
ploy and unfold. The abrasions are
similar to friction rope burns or
those you might get sliding along a
carpet or gymnasium floor. They
are not caused by contact with
chemicals. They are not permanent
and normally heal quickly. How-
ever, if you haven't healed signifi-
cantly within a few days, or if you
have any blistering, see your doctor
immediately.

DRIVER MEMORY SEAT
(for versions/markets,
where provided)
This feature allows the driver to store
up to two different memory profiles
for easy recall through a memory
switch. Each memory profile contains
desired position settings for the driver seat, side mirrors, adjustable pedals
(for versions/markets, where pro-
vided), and power tilt and telescopic
steering column (for versions/
markets, where provided) and a set of
desired radio station presets. Your Re-
mote Keyless Entry (RKE) transmit-
ter can also be programmed to recall
the same positions when the UN-
LOCK button is pressed.
NOTE:
Only one RKE transmitter can
be linked to each of the memory
positions.
Passive Entry door handles can- not be linked to the memory
function. Use either the memory
recall switch or the RKE trans-
mitter (if linked to the memory
feature) to recall memory posi-
tions 1 or 2.
The memory seat switch is located on
the driver's door trim panel. The
switch consists of three buttons: The
(S) button, which is used to activate
the memory save function and the (1) and (2) buttons which are used to
recall either of two pre-programmed
memory profiles.
PROGRAMMING THE
MEMORY FEATURE
To create a new memory profile, per-
form the following:
1. Cycle the ignition to the RUN po-
sition.
2. Adjust all memory profile settings
to desired preferences (i.e., seat, side
mirror, adjustable pedals [for
versions/markets, where provided],
power tilt and telescopic steering col-
umn [for versions/markets, where
provided], and radio station presets).
3. Press and release the SET (S) but-
ton on the memory switch.

adjustable pedals or impede its
ability to move as it may cause
damage to the pedal controls. Pedal
travel may become limited if move-
ment is stopped by an obstruction
in the adjustable pedal's path.
WARNING!
Do not adjust the pedals while the
vehicle is moving. You could lose
control and have an accident. Al-
ways adjust the pedals while the
vehicle is parked.
ELECTRONIC SPEED
CONTROL
When engaged, the Electronic Speed
Control takes over accelerator opera-
tions at speeds greater than 40 km/h.
NOTE: In order to ensure proper
operation, the Electronic Speed
Control System has been designed
to shut down if multiple Speed
Control functions are operated at
the same time. If this occurs, the
Electronic Speed Control System
can be reactivated by pushing the
Electronic Speed Control ON/OFF
button and resetting the desired
vehicle set speed.
TO ACTIVATE
Push the ON/OFF button. The Cruise
Indicator Light in the Electronic Ve-
hicle Information Center (EVIC) will
illuminate. To turn the system off,
push the ON/OFF button a second
time. The Cruise Indicator Light will
turn off. The system should be turned
off when not in use.
WARNING!
Leaving the Electronic Speed Con-
trol system on when not in use is
dangerous. You could accidentally
set the system or cause it to go
faster than you want. You could
lose control and have an accident.
Always leave the system OFF when
you are not using it.
TO SET A DESIRED SPEED

WARNING!
Electronic Speed Control can be
dangerous where the system cannot
maintain a constant speed. Your ve-
hicle could go too fast for the con-
ditions, and you could lose control
and have an accident. Do not use
Electronic Speed Control in heavy
traffic or on roads that are winding,
icy, snow-covered or slippery.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL (ACC) (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) in-
creases the driving convenience pro-
vided by cruise control while traveling
on highways and major roadways.
However, it is not a safety system and
not designed to prevent collisions.
ACC will allow you to keep cruise
control engaged in light to moderate
traffic conditions without the con-
stant need to reset your cruise control.ACC utilizes a radar sensor designed
to detect a vehicle directly ahead of
you.
NOTE:
If the sensor does not detect a
vehicle ahead of you, ACC will
maintain a fixed set speed.
If the ACC sensor detects a ve- hicle ahead, ACC will apply lim-
ited braking or acceleration (not
to exceed the original set speed)
automatically to maintain a pre-
set following distance, while
matching the speed of the ve-
hicle ahead.
WARNING!
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) isa convenience system. It is not a
substitute for active driving in-
volvement. It is always the driv-
er’s responsibility to be attentive
of road, traffic, and weather con-
ditions, vehicle speed, distance to
the vehicle ahead; and, most im-
portantly, brake operation to en-
sure safe operation of the vehicle
under all road conditions. Your
complete attention is always re-
quired while driving to maintain
safe control of your vehicle. Fail-
ure to follow these warnings can
result in a collision and death or
serious personal injury.
The ACC system:
Does not react to pedestrians, on- coming vehicles, and stationary
objects (e.g., a stopped vehicle in
a traffic jam or a disabled ve-
hicle).
