Height Adjustment
• Ratchet the front lever, located on the outboard side of the seat, upward to raise the seatheight.
• Ratchet the lever downward to lower the seat height.
CAUTION!
Do not place any article under a power seat or impede its ability to move as it may cause
damage to the seat controls. Seat travel may become limited if movement is stopped by an
obstruction in the seat’s path.
WARNING!
• Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The sudden movement of the seat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not be properly adjusted, and you
could be severely injured or killed. Only adjust a seat while the vehicle is parked.
• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no longer resting against your
chest. In a collision, you could slide under the seat belt and be severely injured or killed.
Use the recliner only when the vehicle is parked.

ACC Operation At Stop
If the ACC system brings your vehicle to a standstill while following a target vehicle, if the target
vehicle starts moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, your vehicle will
resume motion without the need for any driver action.
If the target vehicle does not start moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a
standstill, the driver will either have to press the RES (resume) button, or apply the accelerator
pedal to reengage the ACC to the existing Set Speed.
NOTE:
After the ACC system holds your vehicle at a standstill for approximately three consecutive
minutes, the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will be cancelled.
While the ACC system is holding your vehicle at a standstill, if the driver seatbelt is unbuckled or
the driver door is opened, the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will be
cancelled.
Changing Modes (ACC Only)
If desired, the Adaptive Cruise Control mode can be turned off and the system can be operated
as a normal (Fixed Speed) Speed Control mode. When in the normal (Fixed Speed) Speed
Control mode the distance setting feature will be disabled and the system will maintain the speed
you set.
• To change between the different cruise control modes, press the ADAPTIVE CRUISECONTROL (ACC) ON/OFF button which turns the ACC and the normal (Fixed Speed)
Speed Control OFF.
• Pressing the normal (Fixed Speed) SPEED CONTROL ON/OFF button will result in turning ON (changing to) the normal (Fixed Speed) Speed Control mode.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.

To Manually Turn On The Stop/Start System
Press the STOP/START Off switch (located on the switch bank). The light on the switch will turn off.
For complete details on the Stop/Start System refer to the “Stop/Start System” in the “Starting
and Operating” section located in your owners manual on the DVD for further information.
ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE (EPB)
Your vehicle is equipped with an Electric Parking Brake System (EPB) that offers simple
operation, and some additional features that make the parking brake more convenient and useful.
The parking brake switch is located in the center console.
To engage the parking brake manually, pull up
on the switch momentarily.
To release the parking brake manually, the igni-
tion switch must be in the ON/RUN position.
Push on the brake pedal, then push the parking
brake switch down momentarily.
The parking brake will disengage automatically
when the ignition switch in the RUN position,
the transmission is in DRIVE or REVERSE, the
driver seat belt is buckled, and an attempt is
made to drive away by pressing the accelerator
pedal.
NOTE:
• You may hear a slight whirring sound fromthe back of the vehicle while the parking brake engages or disengages.
• Once the parking brake is fully engaged, the BRAKE warning lamp in the instrument cluster and the LED indicator on the switch will illuminate. Once the parking brake is fully disengaged,
the BRAKE warning lamp in the instrument cluster and the LED indicator on the switch will
extinguish.
• If your foot is on the brake pedal while you are engaging or disengaging the parking brake, you may notice a small amount of brake pedal movement.
• The parking brake can be engaged even when the ignition switch is OFF, however, it can only be disengaged when the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN position.
• The EPB fault lamp will illuminate if the EPB switch is held for longer than 20 seconds in either the released or applied position. The light will extinguish upon releasing the switch.
• Refer to the Starting and Operating section of your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further details.

WARNING!
• Do not let children play with the sunroof. Never leave children unattended in a vehicle, orwith access to an unlocked 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 unattended children, can become entrapped by
the power sunroof while operating the power sunroof switch. Such entrapment may result
in serious injury or death.
• In a collision, there is a greater risk of being thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof.
You could also be severely injured or killed. Always fasten your seat belt properly and make
sure all passengers are properly secured.
• Do not allow small children to operate the sunroof. Never allow your fingers, other body
parts, or any object to project through the sunroof opening. Injury may result.
WIND BUFFETING
Wind buffeting can be described as a helicopter-type percussion sound. If buffeting occurs with
the rear windows open, adjust the front and rear windows together.
If buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening, or adjust any window. This
will minimize buffeting.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE

WARNING!
If you continue operating the vehicle when the Transmission Temperature Warning Light is
illuminated you could cause the fluid to boil over, come in contact with hot engine or exhaust
components and cause a fire.
- Seat Belt Reminder Light
When the ignition switch is first turned to ON/RUN, this light will turn on if the driver’s seat belt
is unbuckled, a chime will sound. When driving, if the driver’s seat belt remains unbuckled, the
Seat Belt Reminder Light will illuminate and the chime will sound.
Please have your vehicle serviced immediately.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous. Part of the brake system may have
failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You could have a collision. Have the vehicle
checked immediately.
- Brake Warning Light
This light monitors various brake functions, including brake fluid level and parking brake appli-
cation. If the brake light turns on it may indicate that the parking brake is applied, that the brake
fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with the anti-lock brake system reservoir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake has been disengaged, and the fluid level is at the
full mark on the master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake hydraulic system malfunc-
tion or that a problem with the Brake Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS)/Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system. In this case, the light will remain on until the
condition has been corrected. If the problem is related to the brake booster, the ABS pump will
run when applying the brake and a brake pedal pulsation may be felt during each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve braking capacity in the event of a failure to a portion of
the hydraulic system. A leak in either half of the dual brake system is indicated by the Brake
Warning Light, which will turn on when the brake fluid level in the master cylinder has dropped
below a specified level. The light will remain on until the cause is corrected.
Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), are also equipped with Electronic
Brake Force Distribution (EBD). In the event of an EBD failure, the Brake Warning Light will turn
on along with the ABS Light. Immediate repair to the ABS system is required.
Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be checked by turning the ignition switch from the
OFF position to the ON/RUN position. The light should illuminate for approximately two
seconds. The light should then turn off unless the parking brake is applied or a brake fault is
detected. If the light does not illuminate, have the light inspected by an authorized dealer.
The light also will turn on when the parking brake is applied with the ignition switch in the
ON/RUN position.

EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR)
This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data Recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is to
record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The EDR
is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short period of
time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were operating.
• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened.
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal.
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and
injuries occur.
NOTE:
EDR data is recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data is
recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g. name, gender,
age, and crash location) is recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could
combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a
crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle or the
EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties such as law enforcement,
that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to the vehicle or the
EDR.
