Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should

Installing The Child Restraint Using The LATCH Lower Anchors
NOTE:
Never“share” a LATCH anchorage with two or more child restraints.
1. Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap of the child seat so that you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle
anchorages.
2. Attach the lower hooks or connectors of the child restraint to the lower anchorages in the selected seating position.
3. If the child restraint has a tether strap, connect it to the top tether anchorage. See below for directions to attach a tether anchor.
4. Tighten all of the straps as you push the child restraint rearward and downward into the seat. Remove slack in the straps according to the child restraint
manufacturer’s instructions.
5. Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling back and forth on the child seat at the belt path. It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm) in any
direction.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
The seat belts in the passenger seating positions are equipped with a Switchable
Automatic Locking Retractor (ALR) that is designed to keep the lap portion of the
seat belt tight around the child restraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time,
so check the belt occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.
Tether Anchorage Weight Limit
Always use the tether anchor when using the seat belt to install a forward facing child
restraint, up to the recommended weight limit of the child restraint.
To Install A Child Seat Using An ALR
1. Pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to pass it through the beltpath of the child restraint. Do not twist the belt webbing in the belt path.
2. Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.”
3. Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion tight against the child seat.
4. To lock the seat belt, pull down on the shoulder part of the belt until you have pulled all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor. Then, allow the webbing to
retract back into the retractor. As the webbing retracts, you will hear a clicking
sound. This means the seat belt is now in the Automatic Locking mode.
5. Try to pull the webbing out of the retractor. If it is locked, you should not be able to pull out any webbing. If the retractor is not locked, repeat the last step.
6. Finally, pull up on any extra webbing to tighten the lap portion around the child restraint while you push the child restraint rearward and downward into the
vehicle seat.

Head Restraints — Rear Seats
The head restraints on the outboard seats are not adjustable. They automatically fold
forward when the rear seat is folded to a load floor position but do not return to their
normal position when the rear seat is raised. After returning either seat to its upright
position, raise the head restraint until it locks in place. The outboard head restraints
are not removable.
The center head restraint has limited adjustment. Lift upward on the head restraint
to raise it, or push downward on the head restraint to lower it.
WARNING!
Sitting in a seat with the head restraint in its lowered position could result in
serious injury or death in a collision. Always make sure the outboard head
restraints are in their upright positions when the seat is to be occupied.
NOTE:
For proper routing of a Child Seat Tether, refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Things
To Know Before Starting” in your Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further information.
FRONT SEATS
Power Seats
Some models may be equipped with eight-way power driver and front passenger
seats. The power seat switches are located on the outboard side of the seat. There are
two switches that control the movement of the seat cushion and the seatback.
Power Seat Switches
1 — Power Seat Switch
2 — Recline Switch

WARNING!
• Be certain that the seatback is securely locked into position. If the seatback isnot securely locked into position the seat will not provide the proper stability
for child seats and/or passengers. An improperly latched seat could cause
serious injury.
• The cargo area in the rear of the vehicle (with the rear seatbacks in the
locked-up or folded down position) should not be used as a play area by
children when the vehicle is in motion. They could be seriously injured in a
collision. Children should be seated and using the proper restraint system.
Reclining Rear Seat
To recline the seatback, lift the lever located on the outboard side of the seat, lean
back and release the lever at the desired position. To return the seatback, lift the
lever, lean forward and release the lever.
WARNING!
Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the shoulder belt is no longer resting
against your chest. In a collision you could slide under the seat belt, which could
result in serious injury or death.
HEATED/VENTILATED SEATS
Front Heated Seats
The front heated seats control buttons are located within the climate or controls
screen of the touchscreen.
You can choose from HI, LO or OFF heat settings. The indicator arrows in touchscreen
buttons indicate the level of heat in use. Two indicator arrows will illuminate for HI,
one for LO and none for OFF.
• Press the heated seat button
once to turn the HI setting ON.
• Press the heated seat button
a second time to turn the LO setting ON.
• Press the heated seat button
a third time to turn the heating elements OFF.
If the HI-level setting is selected, the system will automatically switch to LO-level
after approximately 60 minutes of continuous operation. At that time, the display will
change from HI to LO, indicating the change. The LO-level setting will turn OFF
automatically after approximately 45 minutes.
NOTE:
• Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be felt within two to five minutes.
• The engine must be running for the heated seats to operate.

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.
WARNING!
• Do not let children play with the sunroof. Never leave children unattended in avehicle, or with 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.
