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 air bag 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) —
AIR BAGS
• This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for both the driver and front passenger as asupplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver's Advanced Front Air Bag is mounted
in the center of the steering wheel. The passenger's Advanced Front Air Bag is mounted in the
instrument panel, above the glove compartment. The words AIRBAG are embossed on the air
bag covers. In addition, the vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Driver Side Knee Air Bag
mounted in the instrument panel below the steering column.
• The Advanced Front Air Bags have a multistage inflator design. This allows the air bag to have different rates of inflation based on several factors, including the severity and type of collision.
• This vehicle may be equipped with driver and/or front passenger seat track position sensors that may adjust the inflation rate of the Advanced Front Air Bags based upon seat position.
• This vehicle may be equipped with a driver and/or front passenger seat belt buckle switch that detects whether the driver or front passenger seat belt is fastened. The seat belt buckle switch
may adjust the inflation rate of the Advanced Front Air Bags.
• This vehicle may be equipped with Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains (SABIC) to protect the driver, front, and rear passengers sitting next to a window. The SABIC air bags are
located above the side windows and their covers are labeled: AIRBAG.
• If the Air Bag 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).
NOTE:
The Air Bag System is designed to be maintenance free.

in Electronics for further details.
Mist
• Push the end of the lever inward to the first detent when a single wipe is desired.

that changes speed depending on the distance of the object from the bumper, will sound.
• When the Instrument Cluster reads either “Clean Sensor” or “Blinded”, clean off the bumper sensors to see if the condition is corrected.
PARKVIEW® REAR BACK-UP CAMERA
You can see an on-screen image of the rear of your vehicle whenever the shift lever is put into
REVERSE. The ParkView® Rear Back-Up Camera image will be displayed on the radio display
screen, located on the center stack of the instrument panel.
If the radio display screen appears foggy, clean the camera lens located on the liftgate.

ming. To erase the channels, place the ignition switch into the ON/RUN position, then press and
hold the two outside HomeLink® buttons (I and III) for up to 20 seconds or until the red indicator
flashes.
NOTE:
Erasing all channels should only be performed when programming HomeLink® for the first time.
Do not erase channels when programming additional buttons.
