be worn over the abdomen, which could
cause severe or even fatal internal
injuries in a crash.
Also see “Rear Seat Belt Comfort Guides”
under Lap-Shoulder Belt 031.
According to accident statistics, children are
safer when properly restrained in a rear
seating position.
In a crash, children who are not buckled up
can strike other people who are buckled up,
or can be thrown out of the vehicle. Older
children need to use seat belts properly.
{Warning
Never allow more than one child to wear
the same seat belt. The seat belt cannot
properly spread the impact forces. In a
crash, they can be crushed together and
seriously injured. A seat belt must be
used by only one person at a time.
{Warning
Never allow a child to wear the seat belt
shoulder belt under both arms or behind
their back. A child can be seriously
injured by not wearing the lap-shoulder
belt properly. In a crash, the child would
not be restrained by the shoulder belt.
The child could move too far forward
increasing the chance of head and neck
injury. The child might also slide under
the lap belt. The belt force would then be
applied right on the abdomen. That could
cause serious or fatal injuries. The
shoulder belt should go over the shoulder
and across the chest.
Infants and Young Children
Everyone in a vehicle needs protection! This
includes infants and all other children.
Neither the distance traveled nor the age
and size of the traveler changes the need,
for everyone, to use safety restraints. In
fact, the law in every state in the United
States and in every Canadian province says
children up to some age must be restrained
while in a vehicle.
{Warning
Children can be seriously injured or killed
if the shoulder belt is worn behind their
back, under their legs, or wrapped around (Continued)

The vehicle may have two accessory power
outlets on the instrument panel.
Remove the cover to access and replace
when not in use.
Certain power accessory plugs may not be
compatible to the accessory power outlet
and could overload vehicle or adapter fuses.
If a problem is experienced, see your dealer.
{Warning
Power is always supplied to the outlets.
Do not leave electrical equipment
plugged in when the vehicle is not in use
because the vehicle could catch fire and
cause injury or death.
Caution
Leaving electrical equipment plugged in
for an extended period of time while the
vehicle is off will drain the battery.
Always unplug electrical equipment when
not in use and do not plug in equipment
that exceeds the maximum 20 amp
rating.
When adding electrical equipment, be sure
to follow the proper installation instructions
included with the equipment. See Add-On

Fuel Range
Press
3until FUEL RANGE displays. This
display shows the approximate number of
remaining kilometers (km) or miles (mi) the
vehicle can be driven without refueling.
The fuel range estimate is based on an
average of the fuel economy over recent
driving history and the amount of fuel
remaining in the fuel tank. This estimate
will change if driving conditions change. For
example, if driving in traffic and making
frequent stops, this display may read one
number, but if the vehicle is driven on a
freeway, the number may change even
though the same amount of fuel is in the
fuel tank. This is because different driving
conditions produce different fuel economies.
Generally, freeway driving produces better
fuel economy than city driving.
If the vehicle is low on fuel, the FUEL LEVEL
LOW message will be displayed.
Average Economy
Press
3until AVG ECONOMY displays.
This display shows the approximate average
liters per 100 kilometers (L/100 km) or miles

Exterior Lamp Controls
The exterior lamp control is on the
instrument panel to the left of the steering
wheel.
There are four positions:
O: Briefly turn the control to this position
to turn the automatic headlamps and
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) off or
back on.
For vehicles first sold in Canada, the off
position only works for vehicles that are
shifted into the P (Park) position.
AUTO : Automatically turns the exterior
lamps on and off, depending on outside
lighting.
;: Turns on the parking lamps including
all lamps, except the headlamps.
2: Turns on the headlamps together with
the parking lamps and instrument panel
lights.
If the headlamps are turned on while the
vehicle is on, the headlamps turn off
automatically 10 minutes after the ignition
is turned off. If the headlamps are turned on
while the vehicle is off, the headlamps will
continue to stay on. To prevent the battery
from being drained, turn the control to the
Oposition.
A warning chime sounds if the driver door is
opened while the ignition switch is off and
the headlamps are on.
To change the headlamps from low beam to
high beam, pull the turn signal lever all the
way toward you. Then release it.
Exterior Lamps Off Reminder

This feature is used to signal to the vehicle
ahead that you want to pass. If the headlamps are off or in the low‐beam
position, pull the turn signal lever toward
you to momentarily switch to high beams.
Release the lever to turn the high-beam
headlamps off.
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL)
DRL can make it easier for others to see the
front of the vehicle during the day. Fully
functional DRL are required on all vehicles
first sold in Canada.
The DRL system comes on in daylight when
the following conditions are met:
.The ignition is on.
.The exterior lamp control is in the AUTO
position.
.The shift lever is not in P (Park).
.The light sensor determines it is daytime.
When the DRL are on, the taillamps,
sidemarker, instrument panel lights, and
other lamps will not be on.
The automatic headlamp system
automatically switches from DRL to the
headlamps depending on the darkness of
the surroundings. To turn off the DRL, turn the exterior lamp
control to
Oand then release it. For
vehicles first sold in Canada, the DRL can
only be turned off when the vehicle is
parked.
Automatic Headlamp System
When it is dark enough outside and the
headlamp switch is in AUTO, the automatic
headlamp system turns on the headlamps,
along with the taillamps, sidemarker lamps,
parking lamps, and the instrument panel
lights. The radio lights will also be dim.
To turn off the automatic headlamp system,
turn the exterior lamp control to the off
position and then release. For vehicles first
sold in Canada, the transmission must be in
the P (Park) position, before the automatic
headlamp system can be turned off.

Lighting 93
The vehicle has a light sensor on the top of
the instrument panel. Do not cover the
sensor; otherwise the system will come on
whenever the ignition is on.
The system may also turn on the headlamps
when driving through a parking garage or
tunnel.
There is a delay in the transition between
the daytime and nighttime operation of the
Daytime Running Lamps (DRL) and the
automatic headlamp system so that driving
under bridges or bright overhead street
lights does not affect the system. The DRL
and automatic headlamp system are only
affected when the light sensor sees a
change in lighting lasting longer than the
delay.
If the vehicle is started in a dark garage, the
automatic headlamp system comes on
immediately. Once the vehicle leaves the
garage, it takes approximately 30 seconds
for the automatic headlamp system to
change to DRL if it is light outside. During
that delay, the instrument cluster may not
be as bright as usual. Make sure the
instrument panel brightness control is in the
full bright position. SeeInstrument Panel
Illumination Control 094. To idle the vehicle with the automatic
headlamp system off, turn the control off.
The headlamps will also stay on after
exiting the vehicle. This feature may be
programmable. See
Vehicle Personalization
0 87.
If the feature is not programmable, exit
lighting is automatic. When it is dark
enough outside, the exterior lamps remain
on for 30 seconds after the ignition is
turned off.
Lights On with Wipers
If the windshield wipers are activated in
daylight with the engine on, and the
exterior lamp control is in AUTO, the
headlamps, parking lamps, and other
exterior lamps come on. The transition time
for the lamps coming on varies based on
wiper speed. When the wipers are not
operating, these lamps turn off. Move the
exterior lamp control to
Por;to
disable this feature.
Hazard Warning Flashers
|: Press this button to make the front
