AFETYSAFETY
Carbon Monoxide Gas
The engine exhaust from this vehicle contains carbon monoxide, a colorle\
ss,
odorless, and highly toxic gas. As long as you properly maintain your ve\
hicle and
follow the instructions set forth below, you will not accumulate dangerous levels
of carbon monoxide gas in the vehicle interior.
Have the exhaust system inspected for leaks whenever:
•
The exhaust system is making an unusual noise.
•
The exhaust system may have been damaged.
•
The vehicle is raised for an oil change.
When you operate a vehicle with the trunk open, airflow can pull exhau\
st gas
into the interior and create a hazardous condition. If you must drive wi\
th the trunk
open, open all the windows and set the climate control system as shown b\
elow. 1.
Select the fresh air mode.
2.
Select the mode.
3.
Set the fan speed to high.
4.
Set the temperature control to a comfortable setting.
Adjust the climate control system in the same manner if you sit in your \
parked
vehicle with the engine running.
An enclosed area such as a garage can quickly fill up with carbon mono\
xide gas.
Do not run the engine with the garage door closed.
even when the garage door is
open, drive out of the garage immediately after starting the engine.
Seat Belts
A seat belt is your best protection in all types of collisions. Airbags \
are designed to
supplement seat belts, not replace them. So even though your vehicle is \
equipped
with airbags, make sure you and your passengers always wear your seat belts and
wear them properly.
Lap/Shoulder Seat Belts
All five seating positions are equipped with lap/shoulder seat belts w\
ith
emergency locking retractors. In normal driving, the retractor lets you \
move
freely while keeping some tension on the belt. During a collision or sud\
den stop,
the retractor locks to restrain your body. The rear seat belts also have a lockable
retractor for use with child seats.
The front seats are equipped with automatic seat belt tensioners to enha\
nce
safety. The tensioners automatically tighten the front seat belts during a mod\
erate
to severe frontal collision, sometimes even if the collision is not seve\
re enough to
inflate the front airbags.
Proper Use of Seat BeltsFollow these guidelines for proper use:
•
All occupants should sit upright, well back in the seat, and remain in t\
hat
position for the duration of the trip. Slouching and leaning reduce the \
effectiveness of the belt and can increase the chance of serious injury \
in a
crash.
•
Never place the shoulder part of a lap/shoulder seat belt under your arm\
or
behind your back. This could cause very serious injuries in a crash.
•
Two people should never use the same seat belt. If they do, they could be\
very
seriously injured in a crash.
•
Do not put any accessories on the seat belts. Devices intended to improv\
e
comfort or reposition the shoulder part of a seat belt can reduce the pr\
otective
capability and increase the chance of serious injury in a crash.
•
No one should sit in a seat with an inoperative seat belt or one that do\
es not
appear to be working correctly

. Using a seat belt that is not working properly
may not protect the occupant in a crash. Have a dealer check the belt as\
soon
as possible.
Carbon monoxide gas is toxic. Breathing it can cause unconsciousness and\

even kill you.
Avoid any enclosed areas or activities that expose you to carbon monoxide\
.
WARNING
Not wearing a seat belt properly increases the chance of a serious injur\
y or
death in a crash, even though your vehicle has airbags.
Be sure you and your passengers always wear seat belts and wear them
properly.
