The design and development of the SafetyCanopy included recommended testingprocedures that were developed by agroup of automotive safety experts knownas the Side Airbag Technical WorkingGroup. These recommended testingprocedures help reduce the risk of injuriesrelated to the deployment of side airbags(including the Safety Canopy).
CRASH SENSORS AND
AIRBAG INDICATOR
WARNING
Modifying or adding equipment tothe front end of the vehicle (includingframe, bumper, front end bodystructure and tow hooks) may affect theperformance of the airbag system,increasing the risk of injury. Do not modifythe front end of the vehicle.
Your vehicle has a collection of crash andoccupant sensors which provideinformation to the restraints controlmodule. The restraints control moduledeploys (activates) the front seatbeltsystem, the adaptive collapsible steeringcolumn, driver airbag, passenger airbag,knee airbag(s), seat mounted side airbags,Safety Canopy and optional rear inflatableseatbelts. Based on the type of crash, therestraints control module will deploy theappropriate safety devices.
The restraints control module alsomonitors the readiness of the above safetydevices plus the crash and occupantsensors. The readiness of the safetysystem is indicated by a warning indicatorlight in the instrument cluster or a backuptone (if equipped). Routine maintenanceof the airbag is not required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated byone or more of the following:
The readiness light will notilluminate immediately after theignition is turned on.
•The readiness light will either flash orstay lit.
•A series of five beeps will be heard (Ifequipped). The tone pattern will repeatperiodically until the problem, the lightor both are repaired.
If any of these things happen, evenintermittently, have the supplementalrestraint system serviced at an authorizeddealer immediately. Unless serviced, thesystem may not function properly in theevent of a crash.
The seatbelt pretensioners and the frontairbag supplemental restraint system aredesigned to activate when the vehiclesustains frontal deceleration sufficient tocause the restraints control module todeploy a safety device.
The fact that the seatbelt pretensionersor front airbags did not activate for bothfront seat occupants in a crash does notmean that something is wrong with thesystem. Rather, it means the restraintscontrol module determined the accidentconditions (crash severity, belt usage)were not appropriate to activate thesesafety devices.
•The design of the front airbags is toactivate only in frontal and near-frontalcrashes (not rollovers, side impacts orrear impacts) unless the crash causessufficient frontal deceleration.
•The seatbelt pretensioners and rearinflatable seatbelts are designed toactivate in frontal, near-frontal andside crashes and rollovers.
•The knee airbag(s) may deploy basedon crash severity and occupantconditions.

STEERING COLUMN
WARNING
Do not adjust the steering wheelwhen your vehicle is moving.
Note: Make sure that you are sitting in thecorrect position. See Sitting in the CorrectPosition (page 128).
Use the control on the side of the steeringcolumn to adjust the position.
To adjust:
•Tilt: Press the top or bottom of thecontrol.
•Telescope: Press the front or rear ofthe control.
End of Travel Position
The steering column sets a stoppingposition just short of the end of the columnposition to prevent damage to the steeringcolumn. A new stopping position sets if thesteering column encounters an objectwhen tilting or telescoping.
To reset the steering column to its normalstopping position:
1. Confirm there is nothing obstructingthe motion of the steering column.
2. Press and hold the steering columncontrol until the steering column stopsmoving.
3. Press the steering column controlagain.
Note:The steering column may begin tomove again.
4. When the steering column stops,continue holding the control for a fewseconds.
5.Repeat for each direction as necessary.
A new stopping position sets. The nexttime you tilt or telescope the steeringcolumn, it stops just short of the end of thecolumn position.
Memory Feature
You can save and recall the steeringcolumn position with the memory function.See Memory Function (page 132).
Pressing the adjustment control during amemory recall cancels the operation.
Easy Entry and Exit Feature
The column moves up when you switchthe ignition off. Switch the ignition on toreturn the system to its previous settings.You can switch this feature on or off in theinformation display. See InformationDisplays (page 97).

Switch the heated steering wheel on andoff using the touchscreen.
Touch the button to switch theheated steering wheel on andoff.
Note:You can use the heated steeringwheel only when the engine is running.
Note:The system uses a sensor and isdesigned to control the temperature of thesteering wheel and to prevent it fromoverheating.
Note:In warm temperatures, the steeringwheel quickly reaches its maximumtemperature and the system reduces thecurrent to the heating element. This couldcause you to think that the system hasstopped working but it has not. This isnormal.
