Q:Because I have a disability, I have to get
my vehicle modied. How can I nd out
whether this will affect my airbag system?
A:Changing or moving any parts of the
front seats, safety belts, the airbag sensing
and diagnostic module, steering wheel,
the instrument panel, or airbag wiring can
affect the operation of the airbag system. If
you have questions, call Customer Assistance.
The phone numbers and addresses for
Customer Assistance are in Step Two of the
Customer Satisfaction Procedure in this
manual. SeeCustomer Satisfaction Procedure
on page 556.
Restraint System Check
Checking the Restraint Systems
Now and then, make sure the safety belt reminder
light and all your belts, buckles, latch plates,
retractors and anchorages are working properly. If
your vehicle has a built-in child restraint, also
periodically make sure the harness straps, latch
plates, buckle, clip, child head restraint and
anchorages are working properly. Look for any
other loose or damaged safety belt system parts. If
you see anything that might keep a safety belt
system from doing its job, have it repaired. See
Care of Safety Belts and Built-in Child Restraint
Harness on page 520for more information.
Torn or frayed safety belts may not protect you in
a crash. They can rip apart under impact forces.
If a belt is torn or frayed, get a new one right away.
114

If your vehicle has the built-in child restraint, torn
or frayed harness straps can rip apart under
impact forces just like torn or frayed safety belts
can. They may not protect a child in a crash.
If a harness strap is torn or frayed, get a
new harness right away.
Also look for any opened or broken airbag covers,
and have them repaired or replaced. The airbag
system does not need regular maintenance.
Notice:If you damage the covering for the
driver’s or the right front passenger’s frontal
airbag, or an airbag covering (if equipped) on a
seatback, the airbag may not work properly.
You may have to replace the airbag module in
the steering wheel, both the airbag module and
the instrument panel for the right front
passenger’s frontal airbag, or both the airbag
module and the seatback for seating positions
with a side impact airbag (if equipped.) Do not
open or break the airbag coverings.Replacing Restraint System Parts
After a Crash
{CAUTION:
A crash can damage the restraint systems
in your vehicle. A damaged restraint
system may not properly protect the
person using it, resulting in serious injury
or even death in a crash. To help make
sure your restraint systems are working
properly after a crash, have them
inspected and any necessary
replacements made as soon as possible.
If you have had a crash, do you need new safety
belts or built-in child restraint parts or LATCH
system parts?
After a very minor collision, nothing may be
necessary. But if the safety belts or built-in child
restraint harness straps were stretched, as
they would be if worn during a more severe crash,
then you need new parts.

not at all because of the following conditions:
A low voltage or dead battery
A disconnected battery
If the instrument panel PSD/fuse 21,
LHPSD/fuse 24 or RHPSD/fuse 25 are
removed or blown.
SeeFuses and Circuit Breakers on page 527for
more information.
If any of these conditions occur, the power sliding
door may need to be reset. If your vehicle has
the dual power sliding doors, both doors will have
to be reset. To reset a door, do the following:
1. Check to be sure the power sliding door is
unlocked and securely closed.
2. Turn the ignition to LOCK.

{CAUTION:
It can be dangerous to drive with the
liftgate open because carbon monoxide
(CO) gas can come into your vehicle. You
cannot see or smell CO. It can cause
unconsciousness and even death. If you
must drive with the liftgate open or if
electrical wiring or other cable
connections must pass through the seal
between the body and the liftgate:
Make sure all other windows are shut.
Turn the fan on your heating or
cooling system to its highest speed
and select the control setting that will
force outside air into your vehicle. See
Climate Control System on page 217
orDual Climate Control System on
page 220.
If you have air outlets on or under the
instrument panel, open them all the
way. SeeEngine Exhaust on page 163.To close the liftgate, pull down on the handle, then
rmly shut the liftgate. Do not drive with the
liftgate open, even slightly.
142

Content Theft-Deterrent
Your vehicle may have a theft-deterrent alarm
system.
A light located on top of your instrument panel,
near the center of the vehicle next to the
windshield, will ash slowly to let you know that
the system has been armed.
While armed, the doors will not unlock with the
power door lock switch.Once armed, the alarm will go off if someone tries
to enter the vehicle without using the remote
keyless entry transmitter or a key, or turns
the ignition to RUN. The horn will sound and the
turn signal lamps will ash for up to two minutes.
Arming with the Power Lock Switch
Your alarm system will arm when the key is
removed from the ignition and you use the driver’s
power door lock switch, with the driver’s door
open or the passenger’s door power door
lock switch with the passenger’s door open to lock
the vehicle. If you would like to turn on power
door lock switch arming, seeDIC Vehicle
Personalization (Uplevel Only) on page 275.
When the security light ashes quickly the system
is arming. After all doors and the liftgate are
closed and locked, the security light will begin
ashing at a very slow rate to let you know
the system is armed.
146

When the PASS-Key®III system senses that
someone is using the wrong key, it shuts down the
vehicle’s starter and fuel systems. The starter will
not work and fuel will stop being delivered to the
engine. Anyone using a trial-and-error method to
start the vehicle will be discouraged because of the
high number of electrical key codes.
If the engine does not start and the security
message comes on, the key may have a damaged
transponder. Turn the ignition off and try again.
If the engine still does not start, and the key
appears to be undamaged, try another ignition
key. At this time, you may also want to check the
instrument panel PASS KEY fuse. If the engine
still does not start with the other key, your vehicle
needs service. If your vehicle does start, the
rst key may be faulty. See your dealer or
a locksmith who can service the PASS-Key
®III to
have a new key made. SeeFuses and Circuit
Breakers on page 527.
It is possible for the PASS-Key
®III decoder to
learn the transponder value of a new or
replacement key. Up to 10 keys may be
programmed for the vehicle. This procedure is for
learning additional keys only. If all the currently
programmed keys are lost or do not operate, youmust see your dealer or a locksmith who can
service PASS-Key
®III to have keys made
and programmed to the system.
See your dealer or a locksmith who can service
PASS-Key
®III to get a new key blank that is
cut exactly as the ignition key that operates the
system.
To program the new key, do the following:
1. Verify the new key has PK3 stamped on it.
2. Insert the original, already programmed
key into the ignition lock cylinder and start the
engine. If the engine will not start, see your
dealer for service.
3. After the engine has started, turn the key to
LOCK and remove the key.
4. Insert the key to be programmed and turn it to
RUN within 10 seconds of removing the
previous key.
5. The security message will turn off once the
key has been programmed. It may not be
apparent that the security message went on
due to how quickly the key is programmed.
6. Repeat Steps 1 through 4 if additional keys
are to be programmed.
149

Ignition Positions
The key can be turned to one of four positions
while in the ignition switch.
A (LOCK):This is the only position from which
you can remove the key. This position locks
your ignition and transaxle.
Notice:Using a tool to force the key from the
ignition switch could cause damage or
break the key. Use the correct key and turn thekey only with your hand. Make sure the key is
all the way in. If none of this works, then
your vehicle needs service.
B (ACCESSORY):This is the position in which
you can operate the electrical accessories, such as
the radio.
C (RUN):This is the position to which the switch
returns after the engine is started and the
ignition key is released. This is the position for
driving. Even while the engine is not running, RUN
can be used to operate your electrical accessories
and to display some instrument panel warning
lights.
The battery could be drained if you leave the key
in the ACCESSORY or RUN position with the
engine off. You may not be able to start your
vehicle if the battery is allowed to drain for
an extended period of time.
D (START):This position starts the engine. When
the engine starts, release the ignition key. The
switch will return to RUN for driving.
151

Parking Brake
The parking brake is
located under the
instrument panel on the
driver’s side of the
vehicle.
To set the parking brake, hold the regular brake
pedal down with your right foot and push down on
the parking brake pedal with your left foot.
If the ignition is on, the brake system warning light
will come on. SeeBrake System Warning Light
on page 238.To release the parking brake, hold the regular
brake pedal down with your right foot while
you push down on the parking brake pedal with
your left foot. When you lift your left foot from the
parking brake pedal, it will pop up to the
released position.
Notice:Driving with the parking brake on can
overheat the brake system and cause
premature wear or damage to brake system
parts. Verify that the parking brake is fully
released and the brake warning light is
off before driving.
If you are towing a trailer and are parking on any
hill, seeTowing a Trailer on page 412.

For additional information on Universal Home
Remote, seeCustomer Assistance Offices
on page 560.
Storage Areas
Your vehicle’s large carrying capacity can store
many items. If the vehicle has an extended
wheelbase, it can carry even larger items. The
oor pins that are used to attach the seats, can be
used to secure larger loads.

lock and turn the key counterclockwise. To
open the glove box, pull the latch release.
The glove box door has a detent to prevent the
door from lowering too far. Open the glove
box until the door is partway open, then pull the
door down if you need it fully opened.
To close the glove box, the door must be pushed
up past the detent. To lock the glove box, put
your key into the lock and turn the key clockwise.
Cupholder(s)
There are cupholders located below the center
instrument panel switchbank. The cupholders have
a rubber liner that can be removed, so that
larger cups can t into the cupholders. You can
also remove the liner to clean it.
To use the cupholders, pull the tray out. Push the
tray back when not in use.
Your vehicle may be equipped with cupholders in
