WARNINGS
To reduce risk of injury, do not obstruct
or place objects in the deployment
path of the curtain airbag. If the curtain airbags have deployed,
the curtain airbags will not function
again. The curtain airbags (including the A,
B and C pillar trim and headliner) must be
inspected and serviced by an authorized
dealer. If the curtain airbag is not replaced,
the unrepaired area will increase the risk of
injury in a crash. The Safety Canopy will deploy during
significant side crashes or when a certain
likelihood of a rollover event is detected by
the rollover sensor. The Safety Canopy is
mounted to the roof side-rail sheet metal,
behind the headliner, above each row of
seats. In certain sideways crashes or rollover
events, the Safety Canopy will be activated,
regardless of which seats are occupied. The
Safety Canopy is designed to inflate between
the side window area and occupants to
further enhance protection provided in side
impact crashes and rollover events. The system consists of the following:
•
Safety canopy curtain airbags located
above the trim panels over the front and
rear side windows identified by a label
or wording on the headliner or roof-pillar
trim.
• A flexible headliner which opens above
the side doors to allow air curtain
deployment •
The crash sensors and monitoring system
have a readiness indicator. See Crash
Sensors and Airbag Indicator (page 55). Children 12 years old and under should
always be properly restrained in the rear
seats. The Safety Canopy will not interfere
with children restrained using a properly
installed child or booster seat because it is
designed to inflate downward from the
headliner above the doors along the side
window opening.
The design and development of the Safety
Canopy included recommended testing
procedures that were developed by a group
of automotive safety experts known as the
Side Airbag Technical Working Group. These
recommended testing procedures help
reduce the risk of injuries related to the
deployment of side airbags (including the
Safety Canopy).

Intelligent access at the driver door will
unlock all doors when you disable two-stage
unlocking.
Locking the Doors
Press the button to lock all the doors. The
direction indicators will flash.
Press the button again within three seconds
to confirm that all the doors are closed. The

The horn sounds twice and the lamps will
not flash if:
•
Locking is not successful.
• Any door or the liftgate is open.
• The hood is open.
Power Liftgate (If Equipped) WARNINGS
Make sure all persons are clear of the
liftgate area before using the liftgate
control. Make sure to close and latch the
liftgate to prevent drawing exhaust
fumes into your vehicle. This will also prevent
passengers and cargo from falling out. If you
must drive with the liftgate open, keep the
vents or windows open so outside air comes
into your vehicle. Failure to follow this
warning could result in serious personal
injury. Note:
Be careful when opening or closing
the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed
area to avoid damaging the liftgate. Press twice within three seconds
to open, close or stop the
movement of a power liftgate. See
Power Liftgate (page 74).
Mechanical Key
Turn the top of the key toward the front of
your vehicle once to lock all doors.
Turn the top of the key toward the rear of
your vehicle once to unlock the driver door
only.
See Remote Control (page 58).

Smart Unlocks
This feature helps to prevent you from
unintentionally locking your intelligent access
key inside the passenger compartment or
rear cargo area.
When you lock your vehicle using the power
door lock (with the door open, vehicle in park
and ignition off ), your vehicle will search for
an intelligent access key in the passenger
compartment after you close the door. If your
vehicle finds a key, all of the doors will
immediately unlock.
You can override the smart unlock feature
and intentionally lock the intelligent access
key inside your vehicle. To do this, lock your
vehicle after you have closed all the doors
by:
•
Using the keyless entry keypad.
• Pressing the lock button on another
intelligent access key.
• Touching the locking area on the handle
with another intelligent access key in
your hand. When you open one of the front doors and
lock your vehicle using the power door lock,
all doors will lock.
Autolock Feature
The autolock feature will lock all the doors
when all of the following occur:
•
All doors are closed.
• The ignition is on.
• You shift into any gear putting your
vehicle in motion.
• Your vehicle attains a speed greater than
4 mph (7 km/h).
The autolock feature repeats when both of
the following occur:
• You open then close any door while the
ignition is on and your vehicle speed is
9 mph (15 km/h)
or lower.
• Your vehicle then attains a speed greater
than
12 mph (20 km/h). Autounlock Feature
The autounlock feature unlocks all the doors
when all of the following occur:
•
The ignition is on, all the doors are
closed, and your vehicle has been in
motion at a speed greater than
4 mph
(7 km/h).
• Your vehicle comes to a stop and you
switch the ignition off or to accessory.
• You open the driver door within 10
minutes of switching the ignition off or to
accessory.
Note: The doors will not autounlock if you
electronically lock your vehicle after you
switch the ignition off and before you open
the driver door.
Enabling or Disabling
Note: You can enable or disable the
autounlock and autolock features
independently of each other.
You can enable or disable these features in
the information display or your authorized
dealer can do it for you.
See General
Information (page 112).
