SEATBELT REMINDER
HOW DOES THE SEATBELTREMINDER WORK
WARNING: The system will onlyprovide protection when you use theseatbelt correctly.
This system monitors all seating positionsand provides audio and graphic feedback.
SEATBELT REMINDERINDICATORS
This lamp illuminates if you donot fasten your seatbelt whenyou switch the ignition on. Thelamp switches off when you fasten yourseatbelt or about one minute has elapsed.
When the initial warning expires for thedriver, more warnings are provided for thedriver and front passenger. This lampilluminates if you or your front passengerdo not fasten the seatbelt buckle and thevehicle speed exceeds 6 mph (10 km/h).
Note:To avoid inadvertent warnings, donot place large objects on the frontpassenger seat.
This lamp illuminates when youswitch the ignition on, identifyingthe number of seating positionswith fastened buckles. It illuminates againwhen a seating position changes fromunfastened to fastened.
This warning displays if an occupantunfastens the rear seatbelt buckle or itbecomes unfastened.
Note:If a rear seat is unoccupied, or anoccupant never fastens the seatbelt buckleto begin with, the warning will not display.
Note:Front seating positions appear in thiswarning display. Warnings for unfastenedfront seatbelt buckles appear in the initialwarning lamp.
Seatbelt Status
To view the seatbelt status, use theinformation display controls on thesteering wheel.

This tone also sounds if an occupantunfastens the rear seatbelt buckle or itbecomes unfastened.
SWITCHING THE SEATBELTREMINDER ON AND OFF
WARNING: While the systemallows you to deactivate it, this systemis designed to improve your chances ofbeing safely belted and surviving anaccident. We recommend you leave thesystem activated for yourself and otherswho may use the vehicle.
Note:The driver and front passengerwarnings switch off independently. Whenyou perform this procedure for one seatingposition, do not buckle the other position asthis cancels the process.
Read Steps 1-4 before proceeding with theprogramming procedure.
Make sure that:
•You set the parking brake.
•The transmission is in park (P).
•The ignition is off.
•You close all vehicle doors.
•You unfasten the driver and frontpassenger seatbelts.
1.Switch the ignition on. Do not start theengine.
2.Immediately start the deactivation orreactivation procedure in Step 3. Onceyou start Step 3, you must completethe procedure within 30 seconds.
3.For the seating position you areswitching off or on, fasten thenunfasten the seatbelt four times at amoderate speed, ending in theunfastened state. The seatbelt warninglight flashes for confirmation.
This switches the feature off for thatseating position if it is currently on.

CHILDREN AND AIRBAGS
WARNING: Do not place arearward facing child restraint in front ofan active airbag. Failure to follow thisinstruction could result in personal injuryor death.
Children must always be properlyrestrained. Accident statistics suggest thatchildren are safer when properly restrainedin the rear seating positions than in thefront seating position. Failure to followthese instructions may increase the risk ofinjury in a crash.
If two adults and a child occupy a vehiclewithout rear seats, properly restrain thechild in the center front seat unless doingso would interfere with driving your vehicle.This provides lap and shoulder beltprotection for all occupants, and airbagprotection for the adults. A child or infantproperly restrained in the center front seatshould have a reduced risk to serious injuryfrom the airbags.
FRONT PASSENGER SENSING
SYSTEM
WHAT IS THE FRONT PASSENGERSENSING SYSTEM
This system detects a properly seatedoccupant and determines if the frontpassenger airbag should be enabled.
HOW DOES THE FRONTPASSENGER SENSING SYSTEMWORK
The system uses a passenger airbag statusindicator which illuminates indicating thatthe front passenger frontal airbag is eitherenabled or disabled.
Note:When you first switch the ignition on,the passenger airbag status indicator offand on lamps illuminate for a short periodto confirm they are functional.
The indicator lamps are in the overheadconsole.
The front passenger sensing system isdesigned to disable the front passengerfrontal airbag under these conditions:
•The front passenger seat isunoccupied.
•The system determines an infant ispresent in a child restraint.
•A passenger takes their weight off ofthe seat for a period of time.
•If there is a problem with the airbagsystem or the passenger sensingsystem.

CRASH SENSORS AND
AIRBAG INDICATOR
WARNING: Modifying or addingequipment to the front of your vehiclecould affect the performance of theairbag system, increasing the risk ofinjury. This includes the hood, bumpersystem, frame, front body structure, towhooks, hood pins, push bar andsnowplows.
Your vehicle has a collection of crash andoccupant sensors. These sensors provideinformation to the restraints controlmodule which activates the following:
•Front seatbelt pretensioners.
•Adaptive steering column.
•Driver airbag.
•Passenger airbag.
•Seat mounted side airbags.
•Safety Canopy.
Based on the type of crash, the restraintscontrol module deploys the appropriatesafety devices.
The restraints control module alsomonitors the readiness of the above safetydevices plus the crash and occupantsensors. The readiness of the safetysystem is indicated by a warning indicatorlight in the instrument cluster or by abackup tone if the warning light is notworking. Routine maintenance of theairbag is not required.
A difficulty with the system is indicated byone or more of the following:
The readiness light will notilluminate immediately after youswitch the ignition on.
•The readiness light either flashes orstays on.
•You hear a series of five tones. Thetone pattern repeats periodically untilthe problem, the light or both arerepaired.
If any of these things happen, evenintermittently, have the supplementalrestraint system serviced immediately.Unless serviced, the system may notfunction properly in the event of a crash.
The fact that the seatbelt pretensionersor front airbags did not activate for bothfront seat occupants in a crash does notmean that something is wrong with thesystem. Rather, it means the restraintscontrol module determined the accidentconditions (crash severity, seatbelt usage)were not appropriate to activate thesesafety devices.
•The front airbags activate only infrontal and near-frontal crashes. Frontairbags may activate in rollovers, sideimpacts or rear impacts if the crashcauses sufficient frontal deceleration.
•The seatbelt pretensioners activate infrontal, near-frontal and side crashes,and in rollovers.
•The side airbags inflate in certain sideimpact crashes or rollover events. Sideairbags may activate in other types ofcrashes if the vehicle experiencessufficient sideways motion ordeformation.
•The Safety Canopy inflates in certainside impact crashes or rollover events.The Safety Canopy may activate inother types of crashes if the vehicleexperiences sufficient sideways motionor deformation, or a certain likelihoodof rollover.
