WARNING!(Continued)
• Keep Key Fob transmitters away from children. Operation of the Remote Start System,windows, door locks or other controls could cause you and others to be severely injured
or killed.
THEFT ALARM
To Arm
• Press the Key Fob LOCK button or the power door lock switch while the door is open.
To Disarm
• Press the Key Fob UNLOCK button and turn the ignition to the ON/RUN position.
SEAT BELT • Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
• Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your abdomen. To remove slack in the lapportion, pull up a bit on the shoulder belt. To loosen the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch
plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug belt reduces the risk of sliding under the belt in a collision.
• Position the shoulder belt on your chest so that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck. The retractor will withdraw any slack in the belt.
• A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a collision. You are more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear your shoulder belt. The lap and
shoulder belt are meant to be used together.
• A belt that is too loose will not protect you properly. In a sudden stop you could move too far forward, increasing the possibility of injury. Wear your seat belt snugly.
• A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection. Inspect the belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. Damaged parts must be
replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system. Seat belt assemblies must be
replaced after a collision if they have been damaged (bent retractor, torn webbing, etc.).
• The seat belts for both front seating positions are equipped with pretensioning devices that are designed to remove slack from the seat belt in the event of a collision.
• A deployed pretensioner or a deployed airbag must be replaced immediately.
WARNING!
In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not
buckled up properly. You can strike the interior of your vehicle or other passengers, or you
can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others in your vehicle are buckled
up properly.

SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) — AIRBAGS• This vehicle has Advanced Front Airbags for both the driver and right front passenger as asupplement to the seat belt restraint system. The Advanced Front Airbags will not deploy in
every type of collision.
• Advanced Front Airbags are designed to provide additional protection by supplementing the seat belts in certain frontal collisions depending on the severity and type of collision. Advanced
Front Airbags are not expected to reduce the risk of injury in rear, side, or rollover collisions.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtains to protect the driver, front and rear passengers sitting next to a window.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Airbags to provide enhanced protection to help protect an occupant during a side impact.
• If the Airbag Warning Light
is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while driving,
have the vehicle serviced by an authorized service center immediately.
• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details regarding the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).
WARNING!
• Relying on the airbags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision. The airbagswork with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions, the airbags won't
deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have airbags.
• Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced Front Airbag deployment could cause serious injury, including death. Airbags need room to inflate. Sit
back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering wheel or instrument panel.
• Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtains and Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Airbags need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or window. Sit upright in the
center of the seat.
• Being too close to the Supplemental Side Airbag Inflatable Curtain and/or Seat-Mounted Side Airbag during deployment could cause you to be severely injured or
killed.
• Do not drive your vehicle after the airbags hav e deployed. If you are involved in another
collision, the airbags will not be in place to protect you.
• After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer immediately.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
• Children 12 years and under should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, if available.According to crash statistics, children are safer when properly restrained in the rear seats rather
than in the front.
• Every state in the United States and all Canadian provinces require that small children ride in proper restraint systems. This is the law, and you can be prosecuted for ignoring it.
Installing The LATCH-Compatible Child Restraint System
• Your vehicle's second row passenger seats are equipped with the child restraint anchoragesystem called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for CHildren. GETTING STARTED
10

• Child seats with fixed lower attachments must be installed in the outboard positions only. Childseats with flexible lower attachments can be used in all three seating positions.
• Never install LATCH-compatible child seats such that two seats share a common lower
anchorage. If you are installing LATCH-compatible child restraints in adjacent rear seating
positions, you can use either the lower anchors or the vehicle seat belt in the outboard seating
position, but the center seating position must use the vehicle seat belt. Always use the top
tether anchorage with a forward facing child seat.
• The rear seat lower anchorages are roundbars, located at the rear of the seat cushion
where it meets the seatback. They are just
visible when you lean into the rear seat to
install the child restraint. You will easily feel
them if you run your finger along the
intersection of the seatback and seat cushion
surfaces.
• In addition, there are tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position located in
the panel between the rear seatback and the
rear window. These tether strap anchorages
are under a plastic cover.
• Loosen the child seat adjusters on the lower straps and tether straps so that you can attach the hook or connector to the lower and tether anchorages more easily.
• Attach the lower hooks or connectors over the top of the seat cover material.
• Then rotate the tether anchorage cover directly behind the seat where you are placing the child restraint and attach the tether strap to the anchorage, being careful to route the tether strap to
provide the most direct path between the anchor and the child restraint.
• Tighten all three straps as you push the childrestraint rearward and downward into the
seat.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
• To install a child restraint, first, pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to route
it through the belt path of the child restraint and slide the latch plate into the buckle.
• Next, extract all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor and then allow the belt to retract into the retractor. Finally, pull on any excess webbing to tighten the lap portion around the child
restraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally, and pull it
tight if necessary.

Fold-Flat Front Passenger Seat
• The front passenger seat can be folded flat.Pull up on the recliner lever to fold down the
seat back.
CAUTION!
DO NOT place any article under a power seat or impede its ability to move as it may cause
damage to the seat controls. Seat travel may become limited if movement is stopped by an
obstruction in the seat’s path.
WARNING!
• Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The sudden movement of theseat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not be properly adjusted, and
you could be severely injured or killed. Only adjust a seat while the vehicle is parked.
• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no longer resting against your chest. In a collision, you could slide under the seat belt and be severely injured or
killed. Use the recliner only when the vehicle is parked.
REAR SEATS
Folding Rear Seatback
• To fold the rear seatback forward, pull on theloops to fold down either or both seatbacks.
When returning the rear seatback to the
upright position, be sure the seatback is
latched.
GETTING STARTED

POWER SUNROOF
Manual Open/Close
• Press and hold the switch rearward to open or forward to close the sunroof. Any release of theswitch will stop the movement, and the sunroof will remain in a partially open or closed position
until the switch is pressed again.
Pinch Protection Feature
• This feature will detect an obstruction in the opening of the sunroof or the shade duringExpress Close operation. If an obstruction in the path of the sunroof or shade is detected, the
sunroof or shade will automatically return to the open position.
NOTE: Pinch protection is disabled while the switch is pressed and held during manual opening
and closing of the sunroof or shade.
WARNING!
• Never leave children in a vehicle with the key in the ignition switch. Occupants, particularly unattended children, can become entrapped by the power sunroof while
operating the power sunroof switch. Such entrapment may result in serious injury or
death.
• In a collision, there is a greater risk of being thrown from a vehicle with an open sunroof. You could also be severely injured or killed. Always fasten your seat belt properly and
make sure all passengers are properly secured too.
• Do not allow small children to operate the sunroof. Never allow your fingers, other body parts, or any object to project through the sunroof opening. Injury may result.

EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR)• This vehicle is equipped with an event data recorder (EDR). The main purpose of an EDR is torecord, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s systems performed. The
EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and safety systems for a short
period of time, typically 30 seconds or less. The EDR in this vehicle is designed to record such
data as:
• How various systems in your vehicle were operating;
• Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened;
• How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal; and,
• How fast the vehicle was traveling.
• These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE: EDR data are recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data
are recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g. name, gender,
age, and crash location) are recorded. However, other parties, such as law enforcement, could
combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data routinely acquired during a crash
investigation.
• To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the vehicle orthe EDR is needed. In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties such as law
enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have access to
the vehicle or the EDR. WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
