Memory Seat and Mirrors
If your vehicle has the memory feature, you can
program and recall memory settings for the driver’s
seating and outside rearview mirror driving
positions for up to two drivers. If your vehicle has
the adjustable throttle and brake pedal feature,
you can also program and recall memory settings
for the throttle and brake pedal driving positions.
The buttons for this feature are located on the
driver’s door armrest.
Use the following steps to program the buttons:
1. Adjust the driver’s seat including the seatback
recliner, both outside mirrors, and the throttle
and brake pedals. SeeOutside Power

for more information.2. Press and hold button 1 for at least
three seconds.
Two beeps will sound to conrm that the seat
and mirror positions have been saved.
3. Repeat the procedure for a second driver
using button 2.
The vehicle must be in PARK (P) to recall the
stored driving positions.
Press one of the numbered memory buttons to
recall the stored setting. Each time a memory
button is pressed, a single beep will sound.
A chime will sound and the setting will not be
recalled if you press button 1 or 2 when the vehicle
is not in PARK (P).
If you would like the stored driving positions to be
recalled when unlocking your vehicle with the
remote keyless entry transmitter or when you place
the key in the ignition, seeDIC Vehicle
Customization on page 231.
To stop recall movement of the memory feature at
any time, press one of the power seat or mirror
controls.

the back to recall the driving position.
2. Adjust the driver’s seat to the desired exit
position.

buttons 1 and 2 on the driver’s door armrest
for at least three seconds.
Two beeps will sound to conrm that the exit
position has been saved.

using memory seat button 2 or the remote
keyless entry transmitter with the number 2 on
the back.To recall the stored exit positions, press and
release the exit button. One beep will sound, and
the seat will move to the previously stored exit
position for the currently identied driver. If an exit
position has not been stored for this driver, the
seat will move all the way back. The position of the
outside mirrors is not stored or recalled for the
exit position.
The vehicle must be in PARK (P) to recall the exit
positions.
A chime will sound and the exit setting will not be
recalled if you press the exit button when the
vehicle is not in PARK (P).

Before folding or unfolding the third row seat, all of
the following conditions must be met:
The liftgate or passenger’s side rear door
must be open.
The unlock button on either the remote
keyless entry transmitter or the door must be
pressed three times to enable the rear
seat for two minutes, or the ignition must be in
ON or ACCESSORY.
The vehicle must be in PARK (P).
The vehicle cannot have a low battery.After the seat has folded, the panel on the seat
must be folded forward to create the at oor.

away. Press the button again to return the seat to
its previous position.
Before returning the third row seat to the
passenger seating position, the panel must be
folded back upon itself. Press and hold one of the
power folding seat buttons and the seat will

This indicates that the seat is not ready for a
passenger.
Replace the head rests.

The best way to protect the fetus is to protect the
mother. When a safety belt is worn properly, it
is more likely that the fetus will not be hurt
in a crash. For pregnant women, as for anyone,
the key to making safety belts effective is wearing
them properly.
Right Front Passenger Position
To learn how to wear the right front passenger’s
safety belt properly, seeDriver Position on
page 27.
The right front passenger’s safety belt works the
same way as the driver’s safety belt — except
for one thing.If the belt stops before it reaches the buckle, tilt
the latch plate and keep pulling until you can
buckle the belt.
Rear Seat Passengers
It is very important for rear seat passengers to
buckle up! Accident statistics show that unbelted
people in the rear seat are hurt more often in
crashes than those who are wearing safety belts.

5. To tighten the belt, pull up on the shoulder
belt while you push down on the child
restraint. You may nd it helpful to use your
knee to push down on the child restraint
as you tighten the belt.
6. Push and pull the child restraint in different
directions to be sure it is secure.
7. If the airbag is off, the off indicator in the
instrument panel will be lit and stay lit
when the key is turned to ON or START.If a child restraint has been installed and the on
indicator is lit, turn the vehicle off. Remove
the child restraint from the vehicle and reinstall the
child restraint.
If, after reinstalling the child restraint and restarting
the vehicle, the on indicator is still lit, check to
make sure that the vehicle’s seatback is not
pressing the child restraint into the seat cushion. If
this happens, slightly recline the vehicle’s
seatback and adjust the seat cushion if possible.
Also make sure the child restraint is not trapped
under the vehicle head restraint. If this happens,
adjust the head restraint.
If the on indicator is still lit, secure the child in the
child restraint in a rear seat position in the
vehicle and check with your dealer.
To remove the child restraint, unbuckle the
vehicle’s safety belt and let it go back all the way.
The safety belt will move freely again and be
ready to work for an adult or larger child
passenger.

In many crashes severe enough to inate the
airbag, windshields are broken by vehicle
deformation. Additional windshield breakage may
also occur from the right front passenger
airbag.
Airbags are designed to inate only once.
After an airbag inates, you will need
some new parts for the airbag system. If you
do not get them, the airbag system will
not be there to help protect you in another
crash. A new system will include airbag
modules and possibly other parts. The service
manual for your vehicle covers the need to
replace other parts.
Your vehicle has a crash sensing and
diagnostic module which records information
after a crash. SeeVehicle Data Collection and
Event Data Recorders on page 498.
Let only qualied technicians work on the
airbag systems. Improper service can
mean that an airbag system will not work
properly. See your dealer for service.
Passenger Sensing System
Your vehicle has a passenger sensing system.
The passenger airbag status indicator on the
instrument panel will be visible when you turn your
ignition key to ON or START.
The words ON and OFF or the symbol for on and
off, will be visible during the system check.
When the system check is complete, either the
word ON or the word OFF, or the symbol for on or
the symbol for off, will be visible. SeePassenger
Airbag Status Indicator on page 202.
