Outside Air Intake
Make sure the air intake, located directly in front of the
windshield, is free of obstructions, such as leaves. Leaves
collected in the air intake may reduce airflow, and if they
enter the air distribution box, they could plug the water
drains. In Winter months, make sure the air intake is clear
of ice, slush, and snow.
Cabin Air Filter
The Climate Control system filters out dust and pollen
from the air. Contact an authorized dealer to service your
cabin air filter, and to have it replaced when needed.
Stop/Start System — If Equipped
While in an Autostop, the Climate Control system may
automatically adjust airflow to maintain cabin comfort.
Customer settings will be maintained upon return to an
engine running condition.

The vacuum will operate in two modes:

Ignition in the ACC position: Engine remains off, and
vacuum usage is limited to 10 minutes.
 Ignition in the START position: Engine is running, and
vacuum usage is unlimited until the vehicle’s battery
level falls below 60%.
NOTE:The vacuum will not operate when the ignition is in the OFF
position, or in the ON/RUN position with the engine off. For
more information on ignition positions, see
Úpage 15.
1. Before Using Vacuum:

Accessory (ACC) Mode Operation - For up to
10 minutes of operation

Always apply the parking brake, shift the transmission
into PARK, and push ignition button to place ignition in
Accessory (ACC) mode. The engine will not be running
in this mode. Do not leave the key fob in or near the ve -
hicle, or in a location accessible to children.

NOTE:The vacuum system will run for 10 minutes off battery
power and then the vacuum will shut down. A low battery
indication light (LOW PWR) located below the vacuum
nozzle storage location will come on one minute before
the vacuum shuts down.
Engine Running (START) Operation - For more than
10 minutes of operation
 Position vehicle outdoors and fully open all side
windows.
 Always apply the parking brake, shift the transmis -
sion into PARK, and leave engine running. 2. Unclip the vacuum nozzle and pull to extend vacuum
hose from the storage location.NOTE:The hose can reach every corner of the vehicle floor.
3. Install desired attachment if needed.

Front Storage Compartments

Do not vacuum toxic material such as chlorine
bleach, ammonia, drain cleaner, etc.
 Do not vacuum hard or sharp objects such as glass,
nails, screws, coins, etc.
 Keep hair, loose clothing, fingers, and all parts of
body away from openings and moving parts.
 Only use with filter in place. Periodically check that
the filter is in place and in good condition.
WARNING!
This equipment incorporates parts such as switches,
motors, or the like that tend to produce arcs or sparks
that can cause an explosion. When using your vacuum
near gasoline-dispensing equipment or service
stations, park vehicle at least 20 ft (6 m) away from the
exterior enclosure of any dispensing pump. The vacuum
is mounted more than 18 inches (45 cm) above ground
level in your vehicle.
WARNING!
WARNING!
Carbon monoxide (CO) in exhaust gases can cause
serious injury or death. Follow these precautions to
prevent carbon monoxide poisoning:
 Do not inhale exhaust gases.
 Do not start or run an engine in a closed garage or
confined area. Always position vehicle outdoors and
fully open all side windows before using vacuum
system with the engine running.
Guard against carbon monoxide with proper mainte -
nance. Have the exhaust system inspected every
time the vehicle is raised. Have any abnormal condi -
tions repaired promptly.

Enhanced Accident Response System
In the event of an impact, if the communication network
remains intact, and the power remains intact, depending
on the nature of the event, the Occupant Restraint
Controller (ORC) will determine whether to have the
Enhanced Accident Response System perform the
following functions:
Cut off fuel to the engine (if equipped).
 Cut off battery power to the electric motor (if equipped).
 Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power.
 Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as
the battery has power or for 15 minutes from the inter -
vention of the Enhanced Accident Response System.
 Unlock the power door locks.
Your vehicle may also be designed to perform any of these
other functions in response to the Enhanced Accident
Response System:
 Turn off the Fuel Filter Heater, Turn off the HVAC Blower
Motor, Close the HVAC Circulation Door 
Cut off battery power to the:
 Engine
 Electric Motor (if equipped)
 Electric power steering
 Brake booster
 Electric park brake
 Automatic transmission gear selector
 Horn
 Front wiper
 Headlight washer pump (if equipped)
NOTE:After an accident, remember to cycle the ignition to the
STOP (OFF/LOCK) position and remove the key from the
ignition switch to avoid draining the battery. Carefully
check the vehicle for fuel leaks in the engine compartment
and on the ground near the engine compartment and fuel
tank before resetting the system and starting the engine.
If there are no fuel leaks or damage to the vehicle elec -
trical devices (e.g. headlights) after an accident, reset the
system by following the procedure described below. If you
have any doubt, contact an authorized dealer.
Enhanced Accident Response System
Reset Procedure
If applicable, refer to the “Hybrid Supplement” for
additional information.
In order to reset the Enhanced Accident Response System
functions after an event, the ignition switch must be
changed from ignition START or ON/RUN to ignition OFF.
Carefully check the vehicle for fuel leaks in the engine
compartment and on the ground near the engine
compartment and fuel tank before resetting the system
and starting the engine.
After an accident, if the vehicle will not start after
performing the reset procedure, the vehicle must be
towed to an authorized dealer to be inspected and to have
the Enhanced Accident Response System reset.
Maintaining Your Air Bag System
WARNING!
 Modifications to any part of the air bag system could
cause it to fail when you need it. You could be injured
if the air bag system is not there to protect you. Do
not modify the components or wiring, including
adding any kind of badges or stickers to the steering
wheel hub trim cover or the upper passenger side of
the instrument panel. Do not modify the front fascia/
bumper, vehicle body structure, or add aftermarket
side steps or running boards.
