immobilized when the key is
removed.
This security light blinks whenever
the ignition is placed in LOCK, OFF,

vehicle and automatically disarms
the system. Only the correct key
starts the vehicle. The vehicle may
not start if the key is damaged.
If the immobilizer system is
malfunctioning, the security light will

is placed in ON.
If the engine will not start using a
registered key:
1. Leave the ignition in ON for
about five seconds.
2. Turn the ignition to OFF or

permanent injuries or even death
from heat stroke. Power Windows
{ WarningLeaving children in a vehicle with
the Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter is dangerous for many
reasons; children or others could
be badly injured or even killed.
They could operate the power
windows or other controls or even
make the vehicle move. They
could be seriously injured or killed
if caught in the path of a closing

3-18 Seats and Restraints
When Should an Airbag
Inflate? This vehicle is equipped with
airbags. See Airbag System on
page 3-15 . Airbags are designed to
inflate when the ignition is in the ON
position and the impact exceeds the
specific airbag system's deployment
threshold. Deployment thresholds
are used to predict how severe a
crash is likely to be in time for the
airbags to inflate and help restrain
the occupants. The vehicle has
electronic sensors that help the
airbag system determine the
severity of the impact. Deployment
thresholds can vary with specific
vehicle design.
Frontal airbags are designed to
inflate in higher severity frontal
collisions, although they may inflate
if the forces in another type of
collision are similar to those of a
higher severity frontal impact, to
help reduce the potential for severe
injuries, mainly to the driver's or front outboard passenger's head
and chest. Frontal airbags do not
provide restraint to the lower body.
Depending upon sensor input and
crash severity, it is possible that
only one frontal airbag may inflate
during a crash.
In addition, the vehicle has
advanced technology frontal
airbags. Advanced technology
frontal airbags adjust the restraint
according to crash severity and
safety belt usage.
In any particular crash, no one can
say whether an airbag should have
inflated simply because of the
vehicle damage or repair costs.
{ Warning .
The front airbags ordinarily
will not inflate in the event of
a side impact, rear impact,
rollover, or lower severity
frontal collision. Always wear
your safety belt to help
(Continued) Warning (Continued) reduce the risk or severity of
injury in various kinds of
accidents. .
The front passenger airbag
will not inflate if the
passenger airbag status
indicator is lit or if the front
passenger seat is
unoccupied. For more
information, see Passenger
Airbag Status Indicator on
page 5-10 . .
The safety belts and the front
airbags are most effective
when you are sitting well
back and upright in the seat
with both feet on the floor.
The front airbags inflate with
great force. Even with the
advanced airbag system,
if you are unrestrained,
leaning forward, sitting
sideways, or out of position in

3-22 Seats and Restraints
Passenger Sensing
System
{ WarningThe front passenger airbag is
designed to automatically turn off
under some conditions. Read this
section carefully to learn how it
operates. Proper use of the seat,
safety belt, and child restraints is
necessary for most effective
protection. Failure to follow all
instructions in this manual
concerning the use of seats,
safety belts, and child restraints
can increase the risk or severity
of injury in an accident. The vehicle has a passenger
sensing system for the front
outboard passenger position. The
passenger airbag status indicator is
under the climate controls.
After the ignition switch is placed in
the ON position, the passenger
airbag status indicator on the
instrument panel will light for about seven seconds. When the system
check is complete, the word OFF
and the symbol for off will be visible
if the front outboard passenger
frontal airbag is turned off and the
front outboard passenger seat is
occupied. See Passenger Airbag
Status Indicator on page 5-10 .
The passenger sensing system
turns off the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag, under
certain conditions. No other airbag
is affected by the passenger
sensing system.
The passenger sensing system
works with sensors that are part of
the front outboard passenger seat.
The sensors are designed to detect
the presence of a properly seated
occupant and determine if the front
outboard passenger frontal airbag
should be allowed to inflate or not.
If the front outboard passenger seat
is unoccupied, the passenger airbag
status indicator will not remain lit,
and the front outboard passenger
frontal airbag will be turned off.

3-46 Seats and Restraints 7. If the booster seat is installed in
the front passenger seat, place
the ignition switch in the ON
position. The passenger airbag
status indicator may or may not
be lit, depending on the size of
the child and the type of booster
seat being used. For more
information, see Passenger
Airbag Status Indicator on
