WARNING: All occupants of your
vehicle, including the driver, should
always properly wear their seatbelts,
even when an airbag supplemental
restraint system is provided. Failure to
properly wear your seatbelt could
seriously increase the risk of injury or
death. WARNING:
To reduce risk of injury,
do not obstruct or place objects in the
deployment path of the airbag. WARNING:
If a supplementary
restraint system component has
deployed, it will not function again. Have
the system and associated components
inspected as soon as possible. Failure to
follow this instruction could result in
personal injury or death.
The Safety Canopy deploys during
significant side crashes or when a certain
likelihood of a rollover event is detected
by the rollover sensor. The Safety Canopy
is mounted to the roof side rail sheet metal,
behind the headliner, above each row of
seats. In certain sideways crashes or
rollover events, the Safety Canopy will be
activated, regardless of which seats are
occupied. The Safety Canopy is designed
to inflate between the side window area
and occupants to further enhance
protection provided in side impact crashes
and rollover events. The system consists of the following:
•
Safety Canopy curtain airbags above
the trim panels over the front and rear
side windows identified by a label or
wording on the headliner or roof-pillar
trim.
• A flexible headliner which opens above
the side doors to allow air curtain
deployment · Crash sensors and monitoring
system with a readiness
indicator. See
Crash Sensors
and Airbag Indicator (page 56).
Properly restrain children 12 years old and
under in the rear seats. The Safety Canopy
will not interfere with children restrained
using a properly installed child or booster
seat because it is designed to inflate
downward from the headliner above the
doors along the side window opening.
The design and development of the Safety
Canopy included recommended testing
procedures that were developed by a
group of automotive safety experts known
as the Side Airbag Technical Working
Group. These recommended testing
procedures help reduce the risk of injuries
related to the deployment of side airbags
(including the Safety Canopy).

CRASH SENSORS AND
AIRBAG INDICATOR
WARNING: Modifying or adding
equipment to the front of your vehicle
could affect the performance of the
airbag system, increasing the risk of
injury. This includes the hood, bumper
system, frame, front body structure, tow
hooks, hood pins, push bar and
snowplows.
Your vehicle has a collection of crash and
occupant sensors. These sensors provide
information to the restraints control
module which activates the following:
• Driver airbag.
• Passenger airbag.
• Front seatbelt pretensioners.
• Adaptive steering column.
• Knee airbag(s).
• Seat mounted side airbags.
• Safety Canopy airbags.
Based on the type of crash, the restraints
control module deploys the appropriate
safety devices.
The restraints control module also
monitors the readiness of the above safety
devices plus the crash and occupant
sensors. The readiness of the safety
system is indicated by a warning indicator
light in the instrument cluster or by a
backup tone if the warning light is not
working. Routine maintenance of the
airbag is not required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated by
one or more of the following: The readiness light will not
illuminate immediately after you
switch the ignition on. •
The readiness light either flashes or
stays lit.
• You will hear a series of five tones. The
tone pattern repeats periodically until
the problem, the light or both are
repaired.
If any of these things happen, even
intermittently, have the supplemental
restraint system serviced at an authorized
dealer immediately. Unless serviced, the
system may not function properly in the
event of a crash.
The seatbelt pretensioners and the front
airbag supplemental restraint system are
designed to activate when the vehicle
sustains frontal deceleration sufficient to
cause the restraints control module to
deploy a safety device.
The fact that the seatbelt pretensioners
or front airbags did not activate for both
front seat occupants in a crash does not
mean that something is wrong with the
system. Rather, it means the restraints
control module determined the accident
conditions (crash severity, belt usage)
were not appropriate to activate these
safety devices.
• The front airbags activate only in
frontal and near-frontal crashes. Front
airbags may activate in rollovers, side
impacts or rear impacts if the crash
causes sufficient frontal deceleration.
• The seatbelt pretensioners activate in
frontal, near-frontal and side crashes,
and in rollovers.
• The knee airbag(s) may deploy based
on crash severity and occupant
conditions.

WHAT IS AUTOMATIC HIGH
BEAM CONTROL
The system turns on high beams if it is dark
enough and no other traffic is present. If it
detects an approaching vehicle
’s
headlamps or tail lamps, or street lighting
ahead, the system turns the high beams
off. Low beams remain on.
A camera sensor, centrally mounted
behind the windshield of your vehicle,
continuously monitors conditions to turn
the high beams on and off.
SWITCHING AUTOMATIC HIGH
BEAM CONTROL ON AND OFF
Switch the system on or off using the
information display. See General
Information (page 99).
Activating the Automatic High
Beam Control Switch the lighting control to the
autolamps position to activate.
See
Autolamps (page 81).
Note: Automatic high beams are not
available when you do not turn on
autolamps.
When active, the high beams turn on if all
of the following occur:
• The ambient light level is low enough.
• There is no traffic in front of your
vehicle.
• The vehicle speed is greater than
approximately
32 mph (52 km/h).
When active, the high beams turn off if any
of the following occur:
• The ambient light level is high enough
that it does not require high beams.
• The system detects an approaching
vehicle's headlamps or tail lamps. •
The system detects severe rain, snow
or fog.
• The camera is blocked.
• The vehicle speed falls below
approximately
27 mph (44 km/h).
Note: The deactivation speed is lower on
curves.
Note: There could be a delay in high beam
reactivation in certain curvy road situations.
Note: If you have a blocked sensor, the
system may not operate properly. Keep the
windshield free from obstruction or damage.
Note: The system may not operate properly
in cold or inclement conditions. You can
switch on the high beams by overriding the
system.
Note: If the system detects a blockage, for
example bird droppings, bug splatter, snow
or ice, the system goes into low beam mode
until you clear the blockage. If you have a
blocked camera, a message may appear in
the information display.
Note: Using much larger tires or equipping
vehicle accessories such as snowplows can
modify your vehicle's ride height and
degrade automatic high beam control
performance.

(If Equipped)

The image of the approaching vehicle is
small and near the inboard edge of the
main mirror when it is at a distance. The
image becomes larger and begins to move
outboard across the main mirror as the
vehicle approaches (A). The image will
transition from the main mirror and begin
to appear in the blind spot mirror as the
vehicle approaches (B). The vehicle will
transition to your peripheral field of view
as it leaves the blind spot mirror (C).
Blind Spot Monitor (If Equipped)
See
Blind Spot Information System
(page 198). INTERIOR MIRROR WARNING:
Do not adjust the
mirrors when your vehicle is moving. This
could result in the loss of control of your
vehicle, serious personal injury or death.
Note: Do not clean the housing or glass of
any mirror with harsh abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum or ammonia-based cleaning
products.
You can adjust the interior mirror to your
preference. Some mirrors also have a
second pivot point. This lets you move the
mirror head up or down and from side to
side.
Auto-Dimming Mirror
Note: Do not block the sensors on the front
and back of the mirror. A rear center
passenger or raised rear center head
restraint may also block light from reaching
the sensor.
The mirror dims to reduce the effect of
bright light from behind. It returns to
normal when the bright light from behind
is no longer present or if you shift into
reverse (R).
