If the retractor is not
locked, repeat
Steps 4 and 5.
6. If the child restraint has a top tether, follow the child
restraint manufacturer's
instructions regarding the
use of the top tether. See
Lower Anchors and
Tethers for Children
(LATCH System) 080.
7. Before placing a child in the child restraint, make
sure it is securely held in
place. To check, grasp the
child restraint at the seat
belt path and attempt to
move it side to side and
back and forth. When the
child restraint is properly
installed, there should be
no more than 2.5 cm (1 in)
of movement.
To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle seat belt
and let it return to the stowed
position. If the top tether is
attached to a top tether
anchor, disconnect it.Securing Child
Restraints (With the
Seat Belt in the
Front Seat)
This vehicle has airbags.
A rear seat is a safer place to
secure a forward-facing child
restraint. See Where to Put
the Restraint 079.
In addition, the vehicle has a
passenger sensing system
which is designed to turn off
the front outboard passenger
frontal airbag and knee airbag
under certain conditions. See
Passenger Sensing System
0 66 and
Passenger Airbag Status
Indicator 0117 for more
information, including
important safety information.
Never put a rear-facing child
seat in the front. This is
because the risk to the
rear-facing child is so great if
the airbag deploys.
{Warning
A child in a rear-facing child
restraint can be seriously
injured or killed if the front
outboard passenger frontal
airbag inflates. This is
because the back of the
rear-facing child restraint
would be very close to the
inflating airbag. A child in a
forward-facing child
restraint can be seriously
injured or killed if the front
outboard passenger frontal
airbag inflates and the
passenger seat is in a
forward position.
Even if the passenger
sensing system has turned
off the front outboard
passenger airbag(s), no
system is fail-safe. No one
can guarantee that an
airbag will not deploy under

4. Push the latch plate intothe buckle until it clicks.
Position the release button
on the buckle, away from
the child restraint, so that
the seat belt could be
quickly unbuckled if
necessary.5. Pull the shoulder belt allthe way out of the
retractor to set the lock.
When the retractor lock is
set, the belt can be
tightened but not pulled
out of the retractor.
It may be necessary to
slide the adjustable stop
along the webbing toward
the outboard anchor to
fully tighten the seat belt
around the child restraint.
While a child restraint is
installed, the adjustable
stop should be positioned
on the portion of the webbing that does not
interact with the child
restraint.
6. To tighten the belt, push
down on the child restraint,
pull the shoulder portion of
the belt to tighten the lap
portion of the belt, and
feed the shoulder belt
back into the retractor.
There must be finger
clearance between the
push button and the child
restraint. If there is not
clearance between the
buckle push button and the
child restraint, move the

seat upward and repeat
prior installation steps.
Otherwise secure the child
restraint in a rear seat.
When installing a
forward-facing child
restraint, it may be helpful
to use your knee to push
down on the child restraint
as you tighten the belt.
Try to pull the belt out of
the retractor to make sure
the retractor is locked.
If the retractor is not
locked, repeat
Steps 5 and 6.
7. Before placing a child in the child restraint, make
sure it is securely held in
place. To check, grasp the
child restraint at the seat
belt path and attempt to
move it side to side and
back and forth. When the
child restraint is properly
installed, there should be
no more than 2.5 cm (1 in)
of movement. If the airbags are off, the OFF
indicator in the passenger
airbag status indicator will
come on and stay on when the
vehicle is started.
If a child restraint has been
installed and the ON indicator
is lit, see
“If the On Indicator Is
Lit for a Child Restraint” under
Passenger Sensing System
0 66.
To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle seat belt
and let it return to the stowed
position.

Warning (Continued)
Otherwise the washer fluid
can form ice on the
windshield, blocking your
vision.
{Warning
Before driving the vehicle,
always clear snow and ice
from the hood, windshield,
washer nozzles, roof, and
rear of the vehicle, including
all lamps and windows.
Reduced visibility from snow
and ice buildup could lead to
a crash.
Wiper Parking
If the ignition is turned off
while the wipers are on LO, HI,
or INT with Rainsense
disabled, they will
immediately stop.
If the windshield wiper lever is
then moved to OFF before the
driver door is opened or within 10 minutes, the wipers will
restart and move to the base
of the windshield.
If the ignition is turned off
while the wipers are
performing wipes due to
windshield washing or
Rainsense, the wipers
continue to run until they
reach the base of the
windshield.
Rainsense
If equipped with Rainsense, a
sensor near the top center of
the windshield detects the
amount of water on the
windshield and controls the
frequency of the windshield
wiper.
To turn the Rainsense feature
on or off, select Settings >
Vehicle > Comfort and
Convenience > Rainsense
Wipers > Select ON or OFF.
Keep this area of the
windshield clear of debris to
allow for best system
performance.AUTO :
When enabled, move
the windshield wiper lever to
AUTO. Turn the
Oband on
the wiper lever to adjust the
sensitivity.
.Turn the band up for more
sensitivity to moisture.
.Turn the band down for less
sensitivity to moisture.

With Rainsense, if the
transmission is in N (Neutral)
and the vehicle speed is very
slow, the wipers will
automatically stop at the base
of the windshield.
The wiper operations return
to normal when the
transmission is no longer in
N (Neutral) or the vehicle
speed has increased.
f:Pull the windshield wiper
lever toward you to spray
windshield washer fluid and
activate the wipers. The
wipers will continue until the
lever is released or the
maximum wash time is
reached. When the windshield
wiper lever is released,
additional wipes may occur
depending on how long the
windshield washer had been
activated. See Washer Fluid
0 393 for information on filling
the windshield washer fluid
reservoir.
Compass
The vehicle has a compass
display on the Driver
Information Center (DIC). The
compass receives its heading
and other information from
the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna,
StabiliTrak/Electronic Stability
Control (ESC), and vehicle
speed information.
The compass system is
designed to operate for a
certain number of miles or
degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass
display shows CAL, drive the
vehicle for a short distance in
an open area where it can
receive a GPS signal. The
compass system will
automatically determine when
a GPS signal is restored and
provide a heading again.
Clock
Set the time and date using
the infotainment system. See
"Time/Date" under Settings
0 207.
Power Outlets
The accessory power outlets
can be used to plug in
electrical equipment, such as a
cell phone or MP3 player.
The vehicle has two accessory
power outlets:
.Inside the center console
storage area.
.On the rear of the center
floor console.
Lift the cover to access the
accessory power outlet.
Certain electrical accessories
may not be compatible with
the accessory power outlet
and could overload a vehicle
circuit breaker or adapter
fuse. If overloaded, the circuit
breaker will reset after all
devices are disconnected or if
