WARNING!
•Side Air Bags need room to inflate.Do not lean against the door or window.Sit
upright in the center of the seat.
•Being too close to the Side Air Bags during deployment could cause you to be
severely injured or killed.
•Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision.
The Side Air Bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly.In some colli-
sions, Side Air Bags won’t deploy at all.Always wear your seat belt even though
you have Side Air Bags.
•This vehicle is equipped with left and right Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable
Curtains (SABICs).Do not stack luggage or other cargo up high enough to block
the deployment of the SABICs.The trim covering above the side windows where
the SABIC and its deployment path are located should remain free from any ob-
structions.
•This vehicle is equipped with SABICs.In order for the SABICs to work as in-
tended, do not install any accessory items in your vehicle which could alter the
roof.Do not add an aftermarket sunroof to your vehicle.Do not add roof racks
that require permanent attachments (bolts or screws) for installation on the ve-
hicle roof.Do not drill into the roof of the vehicle for any reason.
•Do not use accessory seat covers or place objects between you and the Side Air
Bags; the performance could be adversely affected and/or objects could be pushed
into you, causing serious injury.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
Children 12 years or younger should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, if available.
According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seats
rather than in the front.
Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small children ride in
proper restraint systems.This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
NOTE:
•For additional information, refer to www.Seatcheck.org or call 1-866-SEATCHECK.
•Canadian residents should refer to Transport Canada’s website for additional informa-
tion: http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/motorvehiclesafety/safedrivers-childsafety-index-53.htm
GETTING STARTED

Heated Mirrors
•The mirrors are heated to melt frost or ice.This feature is activated when you turn on
the rear window defroster, which is located in the center of the instrument panel, be-
low the radio.
REAR PARK ASSIST
•If an object is detected behind the rear bumper while the vehicle is in REVERSE, a chime
will sound.The chime rate will change depending on the distance of the object, getting
faster as the object gets closer to the bumper.The chime will become continuous when
the distance between the vehicle and the obstacle is less than 12 inches (30 cm).
POWER SUNROOF
The power sunroof roof switch is located in the overhead console.
To Open
•Push and hold the POWER SUNROOF
switch rearward for approximately two
seconds and the sunroof will stop at the
vented position.Push the switch a sec-
ond time and hold for approximately
one second and release, the sunroof will
open fully, then stop automatically.This is
called “Express Open.” During Express
Open operation, any movement of the
sunroof switch will stop the sunroof.
To Close
•With the sunroof in the full open posi-
tion, pull the power sunroof button and
hold it for approximately one second, the
sunroof will return to the vented position.Pull the switch a second time and hold for
approximately one second to completely close the sunroof.
Pinch Protection Feature
•This feature will detect an obstruction in the opening of the sunroof during Express
Close operation.If an obstruction in the path of the sunroof is detected, the sunroof
will automatically retract.Remove the obstruction if this occurs.Next, push the switch
forward and release to Express Close.
NOTE:
If three consecutive sunroof close attempts result in Pinch Protect reversals, the fourth
close attempt will be a Manual Close movement with Pinch Protect disabled.

Sun Shade
•For vehicles equipped with either a power sunroof or a fixed glass roof, there is a sun
shade that can be open or closed.To open the sun shade push the tab and move the
shade to a full open position.
WARNING!
•Do not let children play with the sunroof, or leave children unattended in the ve-
hicle, and do not leave the key in or near the vehicle (or in a location accessible
to children).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 seriously 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 windows down, or top down (convertible models), adjust one or both
side windows up or down slightly.
