your vehicle, so it won’t fly around in
a crash and injure someone.

Larger Children
Children who have outgrown child
restraints should wear the vehicle’s
safety belts. If you have the choice, a
child should sit next
to a window so the
child can wear a lap-shoulder belt and
get the additional restraint a shoulder
belt can provide.
Accident statistics show that children
are safer if they are restrained in the
rear seat. But they need to use the
safety belts properly.
Children who aren’t buckled up can
be thrown
out in a crash.

through the heater ducts. Some heated
air will also come through the
windshield defroster vents.

This setting brings in the outside air,
but directs it in two ways. The cool air is directed to the upper portion of your
body through the instrument panel
outlets, but most warmed air is directed
through the heater ducts and
a little to
the defrost and side window vents. At
times this temperature difference may
be more apparent than others.
VENT: Press to direct air through the
instrument panel outlets. Useful when
outside temperatures are mild and little
heating is necessary.
