Child-Protection Door Lock System —
Rear Doors
To provide a safer environment for small chil-
dren riding in the rear seats, the rear doors
are equipped with a Child-Protection Door
Lock system.

To use the system, open each rear door, use a
flat blade screwdriver (or emergency key) and
rotate the dial to the lock or unlock position.

Child-Protection Door Lock Function
NOTE:

When the child lock system is engaged, the
door can be opened only by using the outside
door handle even though the inside door lock
is in the unlocked position.

After engaging or disengaging the
Child-Protection Door Lock system, always
test the door from the inside to make
certain it is in the desired position.
For emergency exit with the system
engaged, rotate the door lock button until
the lock indicator is hidden (unlocked
position), roll down the window, and open
the door with the outside door handle.
NOTE:
Always use this device when carrying chil -
dren. After engaging the child lock on both
rear doors, check for effective engagement
by trying to open a door with the internal
handle. Once the Child-Protection Door Lock
system is engaged, it is impossible to open
the doors from inside the vehicle. Before
getting out of the car, be sure to check that
there is no one left inside.
SEATS
Seats are a part of the Occupant Restraint
System of the vehicle.
WARNING!
Avoid trapping anyone in a vehicle in a
collision. Remember that the rear doors
can only be opened from the outside when
the Child-Protection locks are engaged
(locked).
WARNING!
It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area,
inside or outside of a vehicle. In a colli -
sion, people riding in these areas are
more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any area of
your vehicle that is not equipped with
seats and seat belts. In a collision,
people riding in these areas are more
likely to be seriously injured or killed.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a
seat and using a seat belt properly.

programmed to come on during a remote
start.
This feature can be programmed through the
Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” in the Owner's
Manual.
HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to reduce the
risk of injury by restricting head movement in
the event of a rear impact. Head restraints
should be adjusted so that the top of the
head restraint is located above the top of
your ear.
NOTE:
Do not reverse the head restraints (making
the rear of the head restraint face forward) in
an attempt to gain additional clearance to
the back of your head.
Reactive Head Restraints — Front Seats
The front driver and passenger seats are
equipped with Reactive Head Restraints
(RHR). In the event of a rear impact, the
RHRs will automatically extend forward
minimizing the gap between the back of the
occupant’s head and the RHR.
The RHRs will automatically return to their
normal position following a rear impact. If
the RHRs do not return to their normal posi -
tion, see your authorized dealer immediately.
To raise the head restraint, pull upward on
the head restraint. To lower the head
restraint, push the adjustment button,
located at the base of the head restraint, and
push downward on the head restraint.
NOTE:
To remove the head restraint, raise it as far
as it can go. Then, push the release button
and the adjustment button at the base of
each post while pulling the head restraint up.
Seatback angle may need to be adjusted to
fully remove the head restraint. To reinstall
the head restraint, put the head restraint
posts into the holes and push downward.
Then adjust the head restraint to the appro -
priate height.
WARNING!
All occupants, including the driver,
should not operate a vehicle or sit in a
vehicle’s seat until the head restraints
are placed in their proper positions in
order to minimize the risk of neck injury
in the event of a crash.
Head restraints should never be adjusted
while the vehicle is in motion. Driving a
vehicle with the head restraints improp -
erly adjusted or removed could cause
serious injury or death in the event of a
collision.

SAFETY
98
OCCUPANT RESTRAINT
SYSTEMS
Some of the most important safety features
in your vehicle are the restraint systems:
Occupant Restraint Systems Features
Seat Belt Systems
Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS)
Air Bags
Child Restraints
Some of the safety features described in this
section may be standard equipment on some
models, or may be optional equipment on
others. If you are not sure, ask an authorized
dealer.
Important Safety Precautions
Please pay close attention to the information
in this section. It tells you how to use your
restraint system properly, to keep you and
your passengers as safe as possible. Here are some simple steps you can take to
minimize the risk of harm from a deploying
air bag:
1. Children 12 years old and under should
always ride buckled up in the rear seat of
a vehicle with a rear seat.
Warning Label On Front Passenger Sun Visor
2. A child who is not big enough to wear the vehicle seat belt properly (Refer to “Child
Restraints” in this section for further
information) must be secured in the
appropriate child restraint or belt-posi -
tioning booster seat in a rear seating
position. 3. If a child from 2 to 12 years old (not in a
rear-facing child restraint) must ride in
the front passenger seat, move the seat
as far back as possible and use the
proper child restraint. Refer to “Child
Restraints” in this section for further
information.
4. Never allow children to slide the shoulder belt behind them or under their arm.
5. You should read the instructions provided with your child restraint to make
sure that you are using it properly.
6. All occupants should always wear their lap and shoulder belts properly.
7. The driver and front passenger seats should be moved back 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
occupants and the door and occupants
could be injured.
