•Before exiting a vehicle, always shift the transmis-
sion into PARK, apply the parking brake, and re-
move the key fob from the vehicle. When leaving the
vehicle, always lock your vehicle. In case you switch
off the vehicle and the transmission is not in PARK
position, a warning message will appear on the

• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. 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 be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the gear
selector.

frequency (RF) devices equipped in this vehicle:
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC Rules and
with Industry Canada license-exempt RSS standard(s).
Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
1. This device may not cause harmful interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference received, in-cluding interference that may cause undesired opera-
tion.
NOTE: Changes or modifications not expressly approved
by the party responsible for compliance could void the

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM — IF EQUIPPED
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors and
ignition for unauthorized operation. When the Vehicle
Security Alarm is activated, interior switches for door locks
are disabled. The system provides both audible and visible
signals. Every intrusion attempt causes three continuous
alarm cycles. Every alarm cycle lasts for 30 seconds. For 26
seconds, the horn will sound, and the turn signal lights will flash. For four seconds, it will pause. After a maximum of
10 alarm cycles, only the turn signal lights will flash until
the next alarm activation.
Rearming Of The System
If the system has not been disabled, the Vehicle Security
Alarm will rearm itself after processing all the alarm cycles
related to the intrusion attempt. If the condition which
initiated the alarm is still present, the system will ignore
that condition and monitor the remaining doors and igni-
tion.
To Arm The System
The Vehicle Security Alarm will set when you use the key
fob to lock the doors. If a door or the hood is not properly
shut, the alarm system will exclude the related door from
protection.
To Disarm The System
Use the key fob to unlock the door and disarm the system.
To exit the alarming mode, push the key fob UNLOCK
button and open the door.

7. The driver and front passenger seats should be movedback as far as practical to allow the front air bags room
to inflate.
8. Do not lean against the door or window. If your vehicle has side air bags, and deployment occurs, the side air
bags will inflate forcefully into the space between occu-
pants and the door and occupants could be injured.
9. If the air bag system in this vehicle needs to be modified to accommodate a disabled person, contact the Cus-
tomer Center. Phone numbers are provided under If
You Need Assistance.
WARNING!
• Never place a rear-facing child restraint in front of an
air bag. A deploying passenger front air bag can
cause death or serious injury to a child 12 years or
younger, including a child in a rear-facing child
restraint.
• Only use a rear-facing child restraint in a vehicle

Seat Belt Systems
Buckle up even though you are an excellent driver, even on
short trips. Someone on the road may be a poor driver and could cause a collision that includes you. This can happen
far away from home or on your own street.
Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and they can
reduce the seriousness of injuries in a collision. Some of the
worst injuries happen when people are thrown from the
vehicle. Seat belts reduce the possibility of ejection and the
risk of injury caused by striking the inside of the vehicle.
Everyone in a motor vehicle should be belted at all times.
Driver and Passenger BeltAlert — If Equipped

ger (if equipped with outboard front passenger seat
BeltAlert) is unbuckled when the ignition switch is first in
