3-12 Seats and Restraints
{WARNING
A safety belt that is improperly
routed, not properly attached,
or twisted will not provide the
protection needed in a crash.
The person wearing the belt could
be seriously injured. After raising
the rear seatback, always check
to be sure that the safety belts
are properly routed and attached,
and are not twisted.
4. Reconnect the center safety belt mini-latch to the mini-buckle.
Do not let it twist.
5. Pull on the safety belt to be sure the mini-latch is secure.
Removing the Third Row Seats
1. Remove the cargo management
system, if it is in the vehicle. See
Cargo Management System
on
page 4‑3.
2. Remove anything on or under the seat. Notice:
Folding a rear seat with
the safety belts still fastened may
cause damage to the seat or the
safety belts. Always unbuckle the
safety belts and return them to
their normal stowed position
before folding a rear seat.
3. Fold the seatback down. See “Folding the Seatback” earlier in
this section.
4. Remove the rear bolts located on the floor on each side of
the seat.
5. Remove the seat by tilting it slightly upward, and then pulling
it out of the rear of the vehicle in
one motion.
6. Replace the bolts in the floor holes for storage.
Installing the Third Row Seats
1. Before installing the seat theseatback must be folded
forward. See “Folding the
Seatback” earlier in this section. The seats must be placed in the
proper locations to attach
correctly. The wider seat must
be installed on the driver side
and the narrower seat on the
passenger side. Remove the
bolts from the holes in the floor
before installing the seats.
2. Place the seat on the vehicle floor so that the front seat hooks
are on the vehicle bars.
3. Reinstall the bolts, and torque to 55Y (41 lb ft). Pull up on the
seat to make sure it is locked in
place.
4. Raise the seatback to its upright position. Push and pull on the
seatback to make sure it is
locked into place.
5. Push the headrest up into position. Push and pull on the
headrest to make sure it is
locked into place.
6. Reconnect the center safety belt mini-latch to the mini-buckle.
Do not let it twist.

9-34 Driving and Operating
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
If the URPA system does not
activate due to a temporary
condition, the message PARK
ASSIST OFF displays on the DIC
when the shift lever is moved into
R (Reverse). This may occur under
the following conditions:
.The driver disables the system.
.The ultrasonic sensors are not
clean. Keep the vehicle's rear
bumper free of mud, dirt, snow,
ice and slush. For cleaning
instructions, seeExterior Care
on page 10‑88.
.A trailer was attached to the
vehicle, or a bicycle or an object
was hanging out of the liftgate
during the last drive cycle. Once
the attached object is removed,
URPA will return to normal
operation.
.A tow bar is attached to the
vehicle.
.The vehicle's bumper is
damaged. Take the vehicle to
your dealer/retailer to repair the
system.
.Other conditions may affect
system performance, such as
vibrations from a jackhammer or
the compression of air brakes on
a very large truck.
If the system is still disabled, after
driving forward at least 25 km/h
(15 mph), take the vehicle to your
dealer/retailer.
Rear Vision
Camera (RVC)
The vehicle may have a Rear Vision
Camera system. Read this entire
section before using it.
{WARNING
The Rear Vision Camera (RVC)
system does not replace driver
vision. RVC does not:
.Detect objects that are
outside the camera's field of
view, below the bumper,
or underneath the vehicle.
.Detect children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, or pets.
Do not back the vehicle by only
looking at the RVC screen, or use
the screen during longer, higher
speed backing maneuvers or
where there could be cross-traffic. (Continued)

Driving and Operating 9-53
Weight is still below 3 266 kg
(7,200 lbs) and you might think
318 additional kilograms (700 lbs)
should be subtracted from the
trailering capacity to stay within
GCWR limits. The maximum trailer
would only be 3 538 kg (7,800 lbs).
You may go further and think the
tongue weight should be limited to
less than 454 kg (1,000 lbs) to avoid
exceeding GVWR. But the effect on
the rear axle must still be
considered. Because the rear axle
now weighs 1 406 kg (3,100 lbs),
408 kg (900 lbs) can be put on the
rear axle without exceeding
RGAWR. The effect of tongue
weight is about 1.5 times the actual
weight. Dividing the 408 kg (900 lbs)
by 1.5 leaves only 272 kg (600 lbs)
of tongue weight that can be
handled. Since tongue weight is
usually at least 10 percent of total
loaded trailer weight, expect that
the largest trailer the vehicle can
properly handle is 2 722 kg
(6,000 lbs).It is important that the vehicle
does not exceed any of its
ratings
—GCWR, GVWR, RGAWR,
Maximum Trailer Rating or Tongue
Weight. The only way to be sure it is
not exceeding any of these ratings
is to weigh the vehicle and trailer.
Total Weight on the Vehicle's
Tires
Inflate the vehicle's tires to the
upper limit for cold tires. These
numbers can be found on the
Certification label or see Vehicle
Load Limits
on page 9‑12for more
information. Do not go over the
GVW limit for the vehicle, or the
GAWR, including the weight of the
trailer tongue. If using a weight
distributing hitch, do not go over the
rear axle limit before applying the
weight distribution spring bars.
Towing Equipment
Hitches
It is important to have the correct
hitch equipment. Crosswinds, large
trucks going by and rough roads are
a few reasons why the right hitch is
needed.
.The rear bumper on the vehicle
is not intended for hitches. Do
not attach rental hitches or other
bumper-type hitches to it. Use
only a frame-mounted hitch that
does not attach to the bumper.
.Will any holes be made in the
body of the vehicle when the
trailer hitch is installed? If there
are, then be sure to seal the
holes when the hitch is removed.
If the holes are not sealed, dirt,
water, and deadly carbon
monoxide (CO) from the exhaust
may get into the vehicle. See
Engine Exhaust on page 9‑22.

10-94 Vehicle Care
Fabric/Carpet
Use a vacuum cleaner with a soft
brush attachment to remove dust
and loose dirt. A canister vacuum
with a beater bar in the nozzle may
only be used on floor carpet and
carpeted floor mats. For soils,
always try to remove them first with
plain water or club soda. Before
cleaning, gently remove as much of
the soil as possible using one of the
following techniques:
.For liquids: gently blot the
remaining soil with a paper
towel. Allow the soil to absorb
into the paper towel until no
more can be removed.
.For solid dry soils: remove as
much as possible and then
vacuum.
To clean:
1. Saturate a lint-free, clean white cloth with water or club soda.
2. Remove excess moisture. 3. Start on the outside edge of the
soil and gently rub toward the
center. Continue cleaning, using
a clean area of the cloth each
time it becomes soiled.
4. Continue to gently rub the soiled area.
5. If the soil is not completely removed, use a mild soap
solution and repeat the cleaning
process with plain water.
If any of the soil remains, a
commercial fabric cleaner or spot
lifter may be necessary. Test a small
hidden area for colorfastness before
using a commercial upholstery
cleaner or spot lifter. If the locally
cleaned area gives any impression
that a ring formation may result,
clean the entire surface.
A paper towel can be used to blot
excess moisture from the fabric or
carpet after the cleaning process.
Leather
To remove dust, a soft cloth
dampened with water can be used.
If a more thorough cleaning is
necessary, a soft cloth dampened
with a mild soap solution can be
used. Allow the leather to dry
naturally. Do not use heat, steam,
or spot lifters or spot removers,
or shoe polish on leather. Many
commercial leather cleaners and
coatings that are sold to preserve
and protect leather may
permanently change the
appearance and feel of the leather
and are not recommended. Do not
use silicone or wax-based products,
or those containing organic solvents
to clean the vehicle's interior
because they can alter the
appearance by increasing the gloss
in a non-uniform manner.
