SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION
WARNINGS
Sitting improperly, out of position or
with the seatback reclined too far
can take weight off the seat cushion
and affect the decision of the passenger
sensing system, resulting in serious injury
or death in the event of a crash. Always sit
upright against your seat back, with your
feet on the floor. Do not place any objects on a folded
seat. Hard objects may become
projectiles in a crash or sudden stop,
which may increase the risk of serious
personal injury. When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, seatbelt and airbags will
provide optimum protection in a crash. We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:
•
Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.
• Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of 10 in
(25 cm) between your breastbone and
the airbag cover.
• Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.
• Bend your legs slightly so that you can
press the pedals fully.
• Position the shoulder strap of the
seatbelt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.
Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.
MANUAL SEATS WARNING
Do not adjust the driver seat when
your vehicle is moving.

STEERING WHEEL LOCK
The steering wheel locks automatically
when you leave your vehicle and take the
intelligent access key with you. The
steering wheel unlocks automatically when
you enter your vehicle with the intelligent
access key.
Note:
You may need to turn the steering
wheel left or right if the wheel does not
unlock completely. This may happen in
certain situations, such as parking your
vehicle on a steep grade.
STARTING THE ENGINE
When you start the engine, the idle speed
increases. This helps to warm up the
engine. If the engine idle speed does not
slow down automatically, have your
vehicle checked by an authorized dealer.
Note: You can crank the engine for a total
of 60 seconds, without the engine starting,
before the starting system temporarily
disables. The 60 seconds does not have to
be all at once. For example, you can crank
the engine three times for 20 seconds each,
without the engine starting, to reach the 60
second time limit. If you exceed the cranking
time, a message appears in the information
display to alert you of this. You cannot
attempt to start the engine for at least 15
minutes. After 15 minutes, you have a 15
second time limit to crank the engine. You
need to wait 60 minutes before you crank
the engine again for 60 seconds.
Before starting the engine, check the
following:
• Make sure all occupants fasten their
seatbelts.
• Make sure the headlamps and
electrical accessories are off. •
Make sure the parking brake is on.
• Move the transmission selector into
park (P).
Note: Do not touch the accelerator pedal.
Note: You must have your intelligent access
key in the vehicle in order to shift the
transmission out of park (P). 1. Fully press the brake pedal.
2.
Press the Engine START/STOP button.
The system does not function if:
• The key frequencies are jammed.
• The key battery has no charge.
If you are unable to start the engine, do the
