•
Can the child sit all the way back
against their vehicle seat backrest with
knees bent comfortably at the edge of
the seat cushion?
• Can the child sit without slouching?
• Does the lap belt rest low across the
hips?
• Is the shoulder belt centered on the
shoulder and chest?
• Can the child stay seated like this for
the whole trip?
Always use booster seats in conjunction
with your vehicle lap and shoulder belt.
Types of Booster Seats •
Backless booster seats
If your backless booster seat has a
removable shield, remove the shield. If a
vehicle seating position has a low seat
backrest or no head restraint, a backless
booster seat may place your child's head
(as measured at the tops of the ears) above the top of the seat. In this case,
move the backless booster to another
seating position with a higher seat backrest
or head restraint and lap and shoulder
belts, or consider using a high back booster
seat.
•
High back booster seats
If, with a backless booster seat, you cannot
find a seating position that adequately
supports your child's head, a high back
booster seat would be a better choice.
Children and booster seats vary in size and
shape. Choose a booster that keeps the
lap belt low and snug across the hips,
never up across the stomach, and lets you
adjust the shoulder belt to cross the chest
and rest snugly near the center of the
shoulder. The following drawings compare
the ideal fit (center) to a shoulder belt
uncomfortably close to the neck and a
shoulder belt that could slip off the
shoulder. The drawings also show how the
lap belt should be low and snug across the
child's hips.

3. Remove the diesel exhaust fluid tank
filler cap.
4. Insert the spout into the diesel exhaust
fluid tank filler pipe until the seal on the

vehicle immediately checked.
Selective Catalytic Reductant
System Warning Lamp
The warning lamp illuminates if
the system detects the diesel
exhaust fluid level is low or if
there is a system malfunction.
If the warning lamp illuminates, the
information display messages give you an
indication whether the concern is fluid
related or if there is a selective catalytic
reductant system malfunction. If the
warning lamp illuminates when your
vehicle is moving, and the fluid is at a
sufficient level, this indicates a system
malfunction. Have your vehicle checked
as soon as possible.
Note: When filling the diesel exhaust fluid
tank from empty, there may be a short
period before the increased diesel exhaust
fluid level is registered.
DIESEL PARTICULATE FILTER
- 3.2L DIESEL WARNING: Do not park or idle your
vehicle over dry leaves, dry grass or other
combustible materials. The regeneration
process creates very high exhaust gas
temperatures and the exhaust will
radiate a considerable amount of heat
during and after regeneration and after
you have switched the engine off. This is
a potential fire hazard.
