Instruments and Controls 5-11After the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position, the passenger
airbag status indicator on the
instrument panel will light for about
seven seconds and then go out or
stay lit depending on the front
outboard seat occupied status. The
passenger airbag status indicator
operates as follows: .
Passenger seat occupied by a
small adult, child, or child
restraint: The passenger airbag
status indicator lights to indicate
that the front passenger frontal
airbag is off and will not inflate in
a collision. .
Occupied passenger seat and
the passenger meets the
conditions outlined in this
manual: The passenger airbag
status indicator is not lit to
indicate that the front passenger
frontal airbag is operational.
See Passenger Sensing System on
page 3-22 for more information. Charging System Light
This light will come on briefly when
the ignition is turned on, and the
engine is not running, as a check to
show it is working.
It should go out when the engine is
started. If it stays on, or comes on
while driving, there may be a
problem with the electrical charging
system. Have it checked by your
dealer. Driving while this light is on
could drain the battery. If a short
distance must be driven with the
light on, turn off all accessories,
such as the radio and air
conditioner, to help reduce the drain
on the battery. Malfunction
Indicator Lamp A computer system called OBD II
(On-Board Diagnostics-Second
Generation) monitors the operation
of the vehicle to ensure emissions
are at acceptable levels, helping to
maintain a clean environment. The
malfunction indicator lamp comes
on when the vehicle is placed in
ON, as a check to show it is
working. If it does not, have the
vehicle serviced by your dealer. See
Ignition Positions on page 9-14 for
more information.
If the malfunction indicator lamp
comes on while the engine is
running, this indicates that the

7-6 Infotainment System
Radio Reception Frequency interference and static
can occur during normal radio
reception if items such as cell phone
chargers, vehicle convenience
accessories, and external electronic
devices are plugged into the
accessory power outlet. If there is
interference or static, unplug the
item from the accessory power
outlet.
AM The range for most AM stations is
greater than for FM, especially at
night. The longer range can cause
station frequencies to interfere with
each other. For better radio
reception, most AM radio stations
boost the power levels during the
day, and then reduce these levels
during the night. Static can also
occur when things like storms and power lines interfere with radio
reception. When this happens, try
reducing the treble on the radio.
FM Stereo FM stereo gives the best sound, but
FM signals reach only about 16 to
65 km (10 to 40 mi). Tall buildings or
hills can interfere with FM signals,
causing the sound to fade in
and out.
Cellular Phone Usage Cellular phone usage may cause
interference with the radio. This
interference may occur when
making or receiving phone calls,
charging the phone's battery,
or simply having the phone on. This
interference causes an increased
level of static while listening to the
radio. If static is received while
listening to the radio, unplug the
cellular phone and turn it off. Fixed Mast Antenna The multi-band antenna is on the
roof of the vehicle. The antenna is
used for AM, FM, and navigation
System, if equipped. Tall buildings,
hills, trees, heavy foliage, tunnels,
bridges, and garages will affect
reception. Keep the antenna clear of
obstructions for clear reception.
Make sure there is sufficient
clearance when entering garages or
parking structures.

10-4 Vehicle Care Warning (Continued)Your vehicle ’ s warranty may not
cover damage resulting from
alterations, modifications,
installation of non-approved
accessories, or improper
installation of accessories. Refer
to your Warranty Information
Booklet for complete details.
Variable Voltage Control System
{ Caution .
Do not ground accessories
directly to the battery
terminal. Doing so will bypass
the variable voltage control
system and the vehicle
battery many not charge
completely. .
Use electrical accessories
with the engine running to
avoid discharging the vehicle
battery.
Your vehicle is equipped with a
variable voltage control system.
This system measures the amount
of electrical discharge from the
battery and controls voltage
generated by the generator. The
current sensor is located near the
battery along the negative battery
cable. If you add electrical
accessories to your vehicle, be sure
to ground them to a suitable body
ground such as the frame or engine
block area. Vehicle Checks Doing Your Own
Service Work
{ WarningIt can be dangerous to work on
your vehicle if you do not have
the proper knowledge, service
manual, tools, or parts. Always
follow owner manual procedures
and consult the service manual
for your vehicle before doing any
service work.
If doing some of your own service
work, use the proper service
manual. It tells you much more
about how to service the vehicle
than this manual can. To order the
proper service manual, see Service
Publications Ordering Information
on page 13-11 .
