{CAUTION
Never do this.
Never allow a child to wear the
safety belt with the shoulder belt
behind their back. A child can be
seriously injured by not wearing
the lap-shoulder belt properly. In a
crash, the child would not be
restrained by the shoulder belt.
The child could move too far
forward increasing the chance of
head and neck injury. The child
might also slide under the lap
belt. The belt force would then be
applied right on the abdomen.
That could cause serious or fatal
injuries. The shoulder belt should
go over the shoulder and across
the chest.
Infants and Young
Children
Everyone in a vehicle needs
protection! This includes infants and
all other children. Neither the
distance traveled nor the age and
size of the traveler changes the
need, for everyone, to use safety
restraints. In fact, the law in
every state in the United States and
in every Canadian province says
children up to some age must
be restrained while in a vehicle.
{CAUTION
Children can be seriously injured
or strangled if a shoulder belt is
wrapped around their neck and
the safety belt continues to
tighten. Never leave children
unattended in a vehicle and never
allow children to play with the
safety belts.
Airbags plus lap-shoulder belts offer
protection for adults and older
children, but not for young children
and infants. Neither the vehicle’s
safety belt system nor its airbag
system is designed for them. Every
time infants and young children
ride in vehicles, they should have
the protection provided by
appropriate child restraints.
Children who are not restrained
properly can strike other people, or
can be thrown out of the vehicle.

The vehicle has pinch sensors
located on the side edges of the
liftgate. If an object is caught
between the liftgate and the body
and presses against this sensor, the
liftgate reverses direction and
fully opens. The liftgate remains
open until it is activated again
or closed manually. Do not force the
liftgate open or closed during a
power cycle.Manual Operation of Power
Liftgate
To change the liftgate to manual
operation, press the switch on
the center console to the OFF
position.
With the power liftgate disabled
and all of the doors unlocked, the
liftgate can be manually opened
and closed.To open the liftgate, press the
touchpad on the handle on
the outside of the liftgate, and lift
the gate open. To close the liftgate,
use the pull cup to lower the
liftgate and close. The liftgate latch
will power close. Always close
the liftgate before driving.
If the RKE button or the power close
button on the liftgate is pressed while
power operation is disabled, the
lights will ash three times, but the
liftgate will not move.
It is not recommended that you drive
with the liftgate open, however, if you
must drive with the liftgate open, the
liftgate should be set to manual

The back of the vehicle is in
an accident, the position and
mounting angle of the camera
can change or the camera can be
affected. Be sure to have the
camera and its position and
mounting angle checked at your
dealer/retailer.
There are extreme temperature
changes.
The rear vision camera system
display in the rearview mirror may
turn off or not appear as expected
due to one of the following
conditions. If this occurs the left
indicator light on the mirror will ash.
A slow ash may indicate a
loss of video signal, or no
video signal present during the
reverse cycle.
A fast ash may indicate that the
display has been on for the
maximum allowable time during a
reverse cycle, or the display has
reached an Over Temperature
limit.
The fast ash conditions are
used to protect the video device
from high temperature conditions.
Once conditions return to
normal the device will reset and
the green indicator will stop
ashing.
During any of these fault conditions,
the display will be blank and the
indicator will continue to ash
as long as the vehicle is in
R (Reverse) or until the conditions
return to normal.
Briey pressing
zwhen the left
indicator light is ashing will turn off
the video display along with the
left indicator light.

on to show it is in use. The light
comes on when the ignition is
in ON/RUN and equipment requiring
less than 150 watts is plugged
into the outlet, and no system fault
is detected.
The indicator light does not come
on when the ignition is in LOCK/OFF

these items are plugged into the
power outlet:
Equipment with high initial
peak wattage such as:
compressor-driven refrigerators
and electric power tools.
Other equipment requiring
an extremely stable power
supply such as:
microcomputer-controlled electric
blankets, touch sensor lamps, etc.
SeeHigh Voltage Devices and
Wiring on page 5-91.
