the lower bracket.
2. Remove the seat from the vehicle.
3. To reinstall the rear seat, just reverse these steps.
NOTE:
Do not drive the vehicle without reattaching
the rear seat latches.
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.
Front Head Restraints
To raise the head restraint, pull upward on
the head restraint. To lower the head
restraint, push the adjustment button
located on the base of the head restraint, and
push downward on the head restraint. The
release button does not need to be pushed to
adjust the head restraint.
To remove the head restraint, raise it as far as
it can go then push the adjustment button
and the release button at the base of each
post while pulling the head restraint up. To
reinstall the head restraint, put the head
restraint posts into the holes and push down -
ward. Then adjust it to the appropriate height.
WARNING!
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle.
In a collision, 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.
Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a
seat and using a seat belt properly.
In a collision, you or others in your
vehicle could be injured if seats are not
properly latched to their floor attach -
ments. Always be sure that the seats are
fully latched.
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.
WARNING! (Continued)
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.

Lap/Shoulder Belt Untwisting Procedure
Use the following procedure to untwist a
twisted lap/shoulder belt.
1. Position the latch plate as close aspossible to the anchor point.
2. At about 6 to 12 inches (15 to 30 cm) above the latch plate, grasp and twist the
seat belt webbing 180 degrees to create
a fold that begins immediately above the
latch plate.
3. Slide the latch plate upward over the folded webbing. The folded webbing
must enter the slot at the top of the latch
plate.
4. Continue to slide the latch plate up until it clears the folded webbing and the seat
belt is no longer twisted.
Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt Anchorage
In the driver and outboard front passenger
seats, the top of the shoulder belt can be
adjusted upward or downward to position the
seat belt away from your neck. Push or
squeeze the anchorage button to release the
anchorage, and move it up or down to the
position that serves you best. Adjustable Upper Anchorage
As a guide, if you are shorter than average,
you will prefer the shoulder belt anchorage in
a lower position, and if you are taller than
average, you will prefer the shoulder belt
anchorage in a higher position. After you
release the anchorage button, try to move it
up or down to make sure that it is locked in
position.
NOTE:
The adjustable upper shoulder belt
anchorage is equipped with an Easy Up
feature. This feature allows the shoulder belt
anchorage to be adjusted in the upward posi -
tion without pushing or squeezing the
release button. To verify the shoulder belt
anchorage is latched, pull downward on the
shoulder belt anchorage until it is locked into
position.
WARNING!
Wearing your seat belt incorrectly could
make your injuries in a collision much
worse. You might suffer internal injuries,
or you could even slide out of the seat
belt. Follow these instructions to wear
your seat belt safely and to keep your
passengers safe, too.
Position the shoulder belt across the
shoulder and chest with minimal, if any
slack so that it is comfortable and not
resting on your neck. The retractor will
withdraw any slack in the shoulder belt.
Misadjustment of the seat belt could
reduce the effectiveness of the safety
belt in a crash.
Always make all seat belt height adjust -
ments when the vehicle is stationary.

Seat Belts For Older Children
Children over 1.50 m in height can wear seat
belts instead of using child restraints.
Use this simple 5-step test to decide
whether the seat belt properly fits the child
or if they should still use a Group 2 or Group
3 child restraint to improve the fit of the seat
belt:
1. Can the child sit all the way back againstthe back of the vehicle seat?
2. Do the child’s knees bend comfortably over the front of the vehicle seat – while
the child is still sitting all the way back?
3. Does the shoulder belt cross the child’s shoulder between the neck and arm?
4. Is the lap part of the belt as low as possible, touching the child’s thighs and
not the stomach?
5. Can the child stay seated like this for the whole trip? If the answer to any of these questions was
“no,” then the child still needs to use a
Group 2 or 3 child restraint in this vehicle. If
the child is using the lap/shoulder belt,
check belt fit periodically and make sure the
seat belt buckle is latched. A child’s
squirming or slouching can move the belt out
of position. If the shoulder belt contacts the
face or neck, move the child closer to the
center of the vehicle, or use a booster seat to
position the seat belt on the child correctly.
ISOFIX Restraint System
Fig. E
Your vehicle is equipped with the child
restraint anchorage system called ISOFIX.
This system allows ISOFIX-equipped child
seats to be installed without using the
vehicle’s seat belts. The ISOFIX system has
two lower anchorages located at the back of
the seat cushion where it meets the seatback
and a top tether anchorage located behind
the seating position.
An example of a Universal ISOFIX child
restraint system for weight group 1 is shown
in fig. E. ISOFIX child restraints are also
available in the other weight groups. WARNING!
Never allow a child to put the shoulder
belt under an arm or behind their back. In
a crash, the shoulder belt will not protect a
child properly, which may result in serious
injury or death. A child must always wear
both the lap and shoulder portions of the
seat belt correctly.

Suitability of Passenger Seats for i-Size
Child Restraint System Use
The rear outboard seats of the vehicle are
type-approved to house the state-of-the-art
i-Size child restraint systems.
These child restraint systems, built and
type-approved according to the i-Size (ECE
R129) standard, ensure better safety condi-
tions to carry children on board a vehicle:
The child must be transported rearward
facing until 15 months:
Child restraint system protection is
increased in the event of a side collision:
The use of the ISOFIX system is promoted
to avoid faulty installation of the child
restraint system:
Efficiency in the choice of the child
restraint system, which isn't made
according to weight anymore but
according to the child's height, is
increased:
Compatibility between the vehicle seats
and the child restraint systems is better:
the i-Size child restraint systems can be
considered as "Super ISOFIX"; this means
that they can be perfectly fitted in
type-approved i-Size seats, but can also be
fitted in ISOFIX (ECE R44) type-approved
seats.
NOTE:
The vehicle seats, i-Size type-approved, are
marked by the symbol shown in Figure XX. The following table, according to European
standard ECE 129, indicates the possibility
of i-Size child restraint system installation.
Key of letters used in the table above:
i-U = Suitable for Universal i-Size child
restraint systems, both rearward facing
and forward facing.
X = Seat not suitable for Universal i-Size
child restraint systems.

NOTE:
The stabilizer/sway bar may be torque locked
due to left and right suspension height
differences. This condition is due to driving
surface differences or vehicle loading. In
order for the stabilizer/sway bar to discon-
nect/reconnect, the right and left halves of
the bar must be aligned. This alignment may
require that the vehicle be driven onto level
ground or rocked from side to side.
To return to on-road mode, push the SWAY
BAR switch again.
STOP/START SYSTEM —
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
(IF EQUIPPED)
The Stop/Start function is developed to
reduce fuel consumption. The system will
stop the engine automatically during a
vehicle stop if the required conditions are
met. Releasing the brake pedal or pressing
the accelerator pedal will automatically
re-start the engine.
Engine Stop/Start (ESS) vehicles have been
upgraded with a heavy duty starter,
enhanced battery, and other upgraded
engine parts, to handle the additional engine
starts.
NOTE:
It is recommended that the Stop/Start
System be disabled during off-road use. Secondary Battery
Your vehicle may be equipped with a
secondary battery used to power the Stop/
Start system and the 12 Volt vehicle elec
-
trical system. The secondary battery is
located behind the wheel well for the front
driver’s side wheel.
Battery Locations
WARNING!
If the stabilizer/sway bar will not return to
on-road mode, the “Sway Bar Indicator
Light” will flash in the instrument cluster
and vehicle stability may be reduced. Do
not attempt to drive the vehicle over
18 mph (29 km/h). Driving faster than
18 mph (29 km/h) with a disconnected
stabilizer/sway bar may contribute to the
loss of vehicle control, which could result
in serious injury.
