Seats and Restraints 101
When the passenger
sensing system has turned
off the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag,
the OFF indicator on the
passenger airbag status
indicator should light and
stay lit when you start the
vehicle. See Passenger
Airbag Status Indicator
0128.
2. Put the child restraint on the seat.
3. Pick up the latch plate and run the lap and shoulder
portions of the vehicle
seat belt through or
around the restraint.
Ensure the seat belt
webbing is routed as direct
as possible and is not
caught on seat handles or
plastic trim. The child
restraint instructions will
show you how.
Tilt the latch plate to
adjust the belt if needed.
4. Push the latch plate intothe buckle until it clicks. Position the release button
on the buckle, away from
the child restraint, so that
the seat belt could be
quickly unbuckled if
necessary.
5. Pull the shoulder belt all
the way out of the

6. To tighten the belt, pushdown on the child restraint,
pull the shoulder portion of
the belt to tighten the lap
portion of the belt, and
feed the shoulder belt
back into the retractor.
There must be finger
clearance between the
push button and the child
restraint. If there is not
clearance between the
buckle push button and the
child restraint, move the
seat upward and repeat prior installation steps.
Otherwise secure the child
restraint in a rear seat.
When installing a
forward-facing child
restraint, it may be helpful
to use your knee to push
down on the child restraint
as you tighten the belt.
Try to pull the belt out of
the retractor to make sure
the retractor is locked.
If the retractor is not
locked, repeat
Steps 5 and 6.
7. Before placing a child in the child restraint, make
sure it is securely held in
place. To check, grasp the
child restraint at the seat
belt path and attempt to
move it side to side and
back and forth. When the
child restraint is properly
installed, there should be
no more than 2.5 cm (1 in)
of movement. If the airbag is off, the OFF
indicator in the passenger
airbag status indicator will
come on and stay on when the
vehicle is started.
If a child restraint has been
installed and the ON indicator
is lit, see
“If the On Indicator Is
Lit for a Child Restraint” under
Passenger Sensing System
0 75.
To remove the child restraint,
unbuckle the vehicle seat belt
and let it return to the stowed
position.

When the indicator nears
empty, the low fuel light
comes on. There still is a little
fuel left, but the vehicle should
be refueled soon.
The fuel gauge may:
.Take a little more, or less
fuel to fill up than it
indicates. For example, the
gauge may have indicated
the tank is half full, but it
actually will take a little
more, or less than half the
tank's capacity to fill
the tank.
.Moves a little while turning a
corner, speeding up,
or braking.
.Take a few seconds to
stabilize after the ignition is
turned on and goes back to
empty when the ignition is
turned off.
These are normal conditions,
none of which indicate a
problem with the fuel gauge.
Engine Coolant
Temperature Gauge
Metric
English This gauge measures the
temperature of the vehicle's
engine.
While driving under normal
operating conditions, if the red
LED is illuminated, the engine
is too hot. Pull off the road,
stop the vehicle, and turn off
the engine as soon as
possible.

until the belt is buckled. This
cycle may continue several
times if the driver remains or
becomes unbuckled while the
vehicle is moving.
If the driver seat belt is
buckled, neither the light nor
the chime comes on.
Front Passenger Seat Belt
Reminder Light
The vehicle may have a front
passenger seat belt reminder
light near the passenger
airbag status indicator. See
Passenger Sensing System
075.
When the vehicle is started,
this light flashes and a chime
may come on to remind
passengers to fasten their
seat belt. Then the light stays on solid
until the belt is buckled. This
cycle continues several times
if the front passenger remains
or becomes unbuckled while
the vehicle is moving.
If the front passenger seat
belt is buckled, neither the
chime nor the light comes on.
The front passenger seat belt
reminder light and chime may
come on if an object is put on
the seat such as a briefcase,
handbag, grocery bag, laptop,
or other electronic device. To
turn off the reminder light
and/or chime, remove the
object from the seat or buckle
the seat belt.
Airbag Readiness
Light
This light shows if there is an
electrical problem with the
airbag system. It is located in
the instrument cluster. The
system check includes the
airbag sensor(s), the
passenger sensing system,
the pretensioners, the airbag
modules, the wiring, and the
crash sensing and diagnostic
module. For more information
on the airbag system, see
Airbag System

The airbag readiness light
comes on for several seconds
when the vehicle is started.
If the light does not come on
then, have it fixed immediately.
{Warning
If the airbag readiness light
stays on after the vehicle is
started or comes on while
driving, it means the airbag
system might not be working
properly. The airbags in the
vehicle might not inflate in a
crash, or they could even

236 Driving and Operating
driving defensively is to wear
the seat belt. See Seat Belts
060.
.Assume that other road
users (pedestrians,
bicyclists, and other drivers)
are going to be careless and
make mistakes. Anticipate
what they may do and be
ready.
.Allow enough following
distance between you and
the driver in front of you.
.Focus on the task of driving.
Impaired Driving
Death and injury associated
with impaired driving is a
global tragedy.
{Warning
Drinking alcohol or taking
drugs and then driving is
very dangerous. Your
reflexes, perceptions,
attentiveness, and judgment
can be affected by even a
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
small amount of alcohol or
drugs. You can have a
serious—or even fatal —
collision if you drive after
drinking or taking drugs.
Do not drive while under the
influence of alcohol or drugs,
or ride with a driver who has
been drinking or is impaired
by drugs. Find alternate
transportation home; or if
you are with a group,
designate a driver who will
remain sober.
Control of a Vehicle
Braking, steering, and
accelerating are important
factors in helping to control a
vehicle while driving.
Braking
Braking action involves
perception time and reaction
time. Deciding to push the brake pedal is perception time.
Actually doing it is
reaction time.
Average driver reaction time is
about three-quarters of a
second. In that time, a vehicle
moving at 100 km/h (60 mph)
travels 20 m (66 ft), which
could be a lot of distance in an
emergency.
Helpful braking tips to keep in
mind include:
.Keep enough distance
between you and the vehicle
in front of you.
.Avoid needless heavy
braking.
.Keep pace with traffic.
If the engine ever stops while
the vehicle is being driven,
brake normally but do not
pump the brakes. Doing so
could make the pedal harder
to push down. If the engine
stops, there will be some
power brake assist but it will
be used when the brake is
applied. Once the power assist
