7.
Pull the seatbelt out of the retractor to
make sure the retractor is in the
automatic locking mode. You should
not be able to pull more belt out. If the
retractor is not locked, unbuckle the
belt and repeat Steps 5 and 6. 8.
Remove remaining slack from the belt.
Force the seat down with extra weight,
for example, by pressing down or
kneeling on the child restraint while
pulling up on the shoulder belt in order
to force slack from the belt. This is
necessary to remove the remaining
slack that exists once you add the extra
weight of the child to the child restraint.
It also helps to achieve the proper
snugness of the child restraint to your
vehicle. Sometimes, a slight lean
toward the buckle helps to remove
remaining slack from the belt.
9. If the child restraint has a tether strap, attach it. 10. Before placing the child in the seat,
forcibly move the seat forward and
back to make sure the seat is securely
held in place.
To check this, grab the seat at the belt path
and attempt to move it side to side and
forward and back. There should be no
more than 1 in (2.5 cm) of movement.
We recommend checking with a NHTSA
Certified Child Passenger Safety
Technician to make certain the child
restraint is properly installed. In Canada,
check with Transport Canada for referral
to a Child Car Seat Clinic.
USING LOWER ANCHORS AND
TETHERS FOR CHILDREN WARNING: Do not attach two child
safety restraints to the same anchor. In
a crash, one anchor may not be strong
enough to hold two child safety restraint
attachments and may break, causing
serious injury or death.

gauge displays.
ENGAGE - VEHICLES WITHOUT:
ACTIVE DAMPERS
For everyday driving. This mode is the
perfect balance of excitement, comfort
and convenience. The interior lights and
cluster graphics are set to soft blue and
the battery state of charge gauge displays. UNBRIDLED - GT, VEHICLES WITH:
ACTIVE DAMPERS
Unbridled mode is for sporty driving with
improved performance handling and
response. This mode increases
acceleration response and provides a
strong deceleration rate when you lift off
the accelerator pedal. Unbridled mode
makes your vehicle accelerate faster and
provides sportier steering feel. Steering and
active damping are tuned for performance.
The interior sound increases and the
ambient lights and cluster graphics are set
to orange with a graphic related to your
acceleration and steering inputs.
Unbridled Extend
This feature adjusts unbridled mode to
provide high-performance driving and is
for track and closed course use only. When
activated, this mode provides balanced
power output for lap time consistency. The
accelerator pedal is calibrated for
improved propulsion control. The system
provides more performance orientated
traction and stability control. In this mode,
traction and stability control intervention
is reduced and tuned specifically for track
usage only. The interior sound increases
and the ambient lights and cluster graphics
are set to orange with a graphic related to
your acceleration and steering inputs.
To use this feature, you must be in
unbridled mode with the unbridled extend
slider selected with the battery at
operating temperature. When using this
mode, one pedal drive is not available and
other driver assistance features are
disabled.
Note:
This feature may not be available in
temperatures below
32°F (0°C), or 59°F
(15°C) for the battery.
Note: If the feature is not available, charge
your vehicle until the battery has sufficient
charge, and temperature conditions are met.
