If the engine does not start
and the security light stays on,
there is a problem with the
system. Turn the ignition off
and try again.
If the vehicle will not change
ignition modes (accessory
mode, on, off), and the remote
key appears to be undamaged,
try another remote key. Or,
you may try placing the
remote key in the front
cupholder located in the
center console. See Remote
Key Operation09.
If the ignition mode will not
change with the other remote
key or in the front cupholder,
your vehicle needs service.
If the ignition does change
modes, the first remote key
may be faulty. See your dealer
who can service the
theft-deterrent system and
have a new remote key
programmed to the vehicle.
It is possible for the
immobilizer system to learn
new or replacement remote keys. Up to eight remote keys
can be programmed for the
vehicle. To program additional
remote keys, see
“Programming Remote Keys to
the Vehicle”
under Remote
Key Operation 09.
Do not leave the key or device
that disarms or deactivates
the theft-deterrent system in
the vehicle.

Seats and Restraints 45
Head Restraints
Front Seats
{Warning
With head restraints that
are not installed and
adjusted properly, there is a
greater chance that
occupants will suffer a neck/
spinal injury in a crash. Do
not drive until the head
restraints for all occupants
are installed and adjusted
properly.
The vehicle's front seats have
adjustable head restraints in
the outboard seating
positions.
Adjust the head restraint so
that the top of the restraint is
at the same height as the top
of the occupant's head. This
position reduces the chance of
a neck injury in a crash.
The height of the head
restraint can be adjusted.To raise or lower the head
restraint, press the button
located on the side of the
head restraint, and pull up or
push the head restraint down,
and release the button. Pull
and push on the head restraint
after the button is released to
make sure that it is locked in
place.
The front seat outboard head
restraints are not removable.

against your body. Instead, it
will be in front of you. In a
crash, you could go into it,
receiving neck or other
injuries.
The lap belt could go up
over your abdomen. The belt
forces would be there, not
at your pelvic bones. This
could cause serious internal
injuries.(Continued)

injury to the person sitting
there. Always push and pull
on the seatbacks to be sure
they are locked.
{Warning
A seat belt that is
improperly routed, not
properly attached,
or twisted will not provide
the protection needed in a

Seat Belts
This section describes how to
use seat belts properly, and
some things not to do.
{Warning
Do not let anyone ride
where a seat belt cannot be
worn properly. In a crash,
if you or your passenger(s)
are not wearing seat belts,
injuries can be much worse
than if you are wearing seat
belts. You can be seriously
injured or killed by hitting
things inside the vehicle
harder or by being ejected
from the vehicle. In addition,
anyone who is not buckled
up can strike other
passengers in the vehicle.(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
It is extremely dangerous to
ride in a cargo area, inside or
outside of a vehicle. In a
collision, passengers riding
in these areas are more
likely to be seriously injured
or killed. Do not allow
passengers to ride in any
area of the vehicle that is
not equipped with seats and
seat belts.
Always wear a seat belt, and
check that all passenger(s)
are restrained properly too.
This vehicle has indicators as
a reminder to buckle the seat
belts. See Seat Belt
Reminders 0123.
Why Seat Belts Work
When riding in a vehicle, you
travel as fast as the vehicle
does. If the vehicle stops
suddenly, you keep going until
something stops you. It could
be the windshield, the
instrument panel, or the seat
belts!
When you wear a seat belt,
you and the vehicle slow down
together. There is more time
to stop because you stop over
a longer distance and, when
worn properly, your strongest
bones take the forces from
