Air bag inflation conditions
Front air bags
Front air bags are designed to inflate in a frontal collision depending on
the severity, speed, or angles ofimpact of the front collision.
Side and curtain air bags
Side and curtain air bags are designed to inflate when an impact is
detected by side collision sensors
depending on the severity, speed, orangles of impact resulting from aside impact collision.Although the driver’s and front pas-
senger’s air bags are designed to
inflate only in frontal collisions, they
also may inflate in other types of col-lisions if the front impact sensors
detect a sufficient impact. Side and
curtain air bags are designed toinflate only in side impact collisions
or rollover situations, but they mayinflate in other collisions if the sideimpact sensors detect a sufficientimpact.
If the vehicle chassis is impacted by
bumps or objects on unimproved
roads, the air bags may deploy. Drive
carefully on unimproved roads or on
surfaces not designed for vehicle
traffic to prevent unintended air bag
deployment.

Air bag non-inflation conditions
In certain low-speed collisions the air
bags may not deploy. The air bags
are designed not to deploy in such
cases because they may not provide
benefits beyond the protection of the
seat belts.Front air bags are not designed to
inflate in rear collisions, because
occupants are moved backward by
the force of the impact. In this case,
inflated air bags would not provide
any additional benefit.
Front air bags may not inflate in side
impact collisions, because occupants
move in the direction of the collision,
and thus in side impacts, front air bag
deployment would not provide addi-tional occupant protection.
However, side and curtain air bags
may inflate depending on the severi-
ty, vehicle speed and angles ofimpact.

To adjust the Zone setting:
1. Determine the desired ZoneNumber based upon your current
location on the Zone Map.
2. Press and hold the button for 6 seconds, the current Zone
Number will appear on the display.
3. Pressing and holding the button again will cause the numbers to
increment (Note: they will repeat
…13, 14, 15, 1, 2, …). Releasing
the button when the desired Zone
Number appears on the display
will set the new Zone.
4. Within about 5 seconds the com- pass will start displaying a com-pass heading again.
There are some conditions that can
cause changes to the vehicle mag-
nets, such as installing a ski rack or
a CB antenna. Body repair work on
the vehicle can also cause changes
to the vehicle’s magnetic field. In
these situations, the compass will
need to be re-calibrated to quickly
correct these changes. If you need to recalibrate the com-pass:
1. Press and hold the button for
more than 9 seconds. When the
compass memory is cleared a "C"
will appear in the display.
2. Drive the vehicle in 2 complete cir- cles at less than 5 mph (8 km/h).Integrated HomeLink ®
Wireless
Control System
The HomeLink®Wireless Control
System can replace up to three hand-
held radio-frequency (RF) transmit-
ters with a single built-in device. This
innovative feature will learn the radiofrequency codes of most current
transmitters to operate devices such
as gate operators, garage door open-
ers, entry door locks, security sys-
tems, even home lighting. Both stan-
dard and rolling code-equipped trans-
mitters can be programmed by fol-
lowing the outlined procedures. Additional HomeLink
®information
can be found at: www.homelink.com
or by calling 1-800-355-3515.
Retain the original transmitter of the
RF device you are programming for
use in other vehicles as well as forfuture HomeLink
®programming. It is
also suggested that upon the sale of
the vehicle, the programmedHomeLink
®buttons be erased for
security purposes.

Non-operational conditions ofParking Assist System
The Rear Parking Assist System
may not operate normally when:
Moisture is frozen to the sensor.
The sensor is covered with dirt or debris such as snow or ice, or the
sensor cover is blocked.
There is a possibility of the Rear
Parking Assist System malfunction
when:
Driving on uneven road surfacessuch as unpaved roads, gravel,
bumps, or gradient.
Objects generating excessive noise such as vehicle horns, loud motor-
cycle engines, or truck air brakes
can interfere with the sensor.
Heavy rain or water spray is present.
Wireless transmitters or mobile phones are present near the sensor.
The sensor is covered with snow.
Any non-factory equipment or acces- sories have been installed, or if the
vehicle bumper height or sensorinstallation has been modified.
Detecting range may decrease when:
Outside air temperature is extreme-ly hot or cold.
Undetectable objects smaller than 40 inches (1 m) and narrower than
6 inches (14 cm) in diameter.
The following objects may not be
recognized by the sensor:
Sharp or slim objects such asropes, chains or small poles.
Objects, which tend to absorb sen- sor frequency such as clothes,
spongy material or snow.

Mode selection
The mode selection button controls
the direction of the air flow through
the ventilation system.
Air can be directed to the floor, dash-
board outlets, or windshield. Four
symbols are used to represent Face,
Bi-Level, Floor, Floor-Defrost and
Front Defrost air position
Face-Level (B, D, F)
Air flow is directed toward the upper
body and face. Additionally, eachoutlet can be controlled to direct theair discharged from the outlet.
Bi-Level (B, D, C, E, F)
Air flow is directed towards the face
and the floor.
Floor-Level (A, C, D, E, F)
Most of the air flow is directed to the
floor, with a small amount of the airbeing directed to the windshield, side
window defrosters, and side vents.
Floor & Defrost
(A, C, D, E, F)
Most of the air flow is directed to the floor and the windshield with a small
amount directed to the side window
defrosters, and side vents.
Front Air Defrost (A, D)
Most of the air flow is directed to the windshield with a small amount of air
directed to the side window
defrosters. In this mode the air conditioning and the recirculated air position will be
selected automatically.OTL045208
