Sitting in a reclined position when

their job.

Warning (Continued)
The shoulder belt will not be
against your body. Instead, it will
be in front of you. In a crash, you
could go into it, receiving neck or
other injuries.
The lap belt could go up over
your abdomen. The belt forces
would be there, not at your pelvic
bones. This could cause serious
internal injuries.
For proper protection when the
vehicle is in motion, have the
seatback upright. Then sit well
back in the seat and wear the
seat belt properly.
Do not have a seatback reclined if
the vehicle is moving.

Seats and Restraints 61
Infants and Young
Children
Everyone in a vehicle needs
protection! This includes infants and
all other children. Neither the
distance traveled nor the age and
size of the traveler changes the
need, for everyone, to use safety
restraints. In fact, the law in every
state in the United States and in
every Canadian province says
children up to some age must be
restrained while in a vehicle.
{Warning
Children can be seriously injured
or strangled if a shoulder belt is
wrapped around their neck. The
shoulder belt can tighten but
cannot be loosened if it is locked.
The shoulder belt locks when it is
pulled all the way out of the
retractor. It unlocks when the
shoulder belt is allowed to go all
the way back into the retractor,
but it cannot do this if it is
wrapped around a child’s neck.
If the shoulder belt is locked and
tightened around a child’s neck,
the only way to loosen the belt is
to cut it.
Never leave children unattended
in a vehicle and never allow
children to play with the seat
belts.
Every time infants and young
children ride in vehicles, they should
have the protection provided by appropriate child restraints. Neither
the vehicle's seat belt system nor its
airbag system is designed for them.
Children who are not restrained
properly can strike other people,
or can be thrown out of the vehicle.
{Warning
Never hold an infant or a child
while riding in a vehicle. Due to
crash forces, an infant or a child
will become so heavy it is not
possible to hold it during a crash.
For example, in a crash at only
40 km/h (25 mph), a 5.5 kg (12 lb)
infant will suddenly become a
110 kg (240 lb) force on a person's
arms. An infant or child should be
secured in an appropriate child
restraint.

Departure :The vehicle will
schedule charging to complete by
the programmed departure time.
The vehicle estimates the charging
schedule based on programmed
departure times, charge rate limits,
electric rate preference and
schedule, and priority charging
settings. If there is not sufficient
time after the charge cord is
plugged in, the vehicle will not be
fully charged by the departure time.

Portable Cord Limit Selection
The Portable Cord Limit setting
allows the vehicle’s charge current
to be selected so it matches the
capability of the charging location.
If the vehicle consistently stops
charging after being plugged in, or if
a circuit breaker continues to trip,
reducing to a lower Portable Cord
Limit setting may resolve the issue.
The Portable Cord Limit setting
should be configured to match the
electrical current rating for the
electrical outlet that the charge cord
is connected to. On the Charge
Mode tab, toggle the Portable Cord
Limit selection between: .
12 amps
. 8 amps
Exact current levels may vary from
the values shown in this manual.
Check the vehicle for the current
available levels. When the vehicle is
plugged into a charging station, the
Portable Cord Limit option on the
Charge Mode tab will not be
available.
The Portable Cord Limit can be
changed and saved using Location
Based Charging settings. The
default value is the lower Portable
Cord Limit. The Portable Cord Limit
will reset to the lower value when
the vehicle is shifted from P (Park)
unless the Location Based Charging
feature is active and set to retain
this preference. See “Location
Based Charging” later in this
section.
