CHILD RESTRAINTS
• Children 12 years and under should ride properly buckled up in a rear seat, ifavailable. 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.
WARNING!
In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectile inside
the vehicle. The force required to hold even an infant on your lap could become so
great that you could not hold the child, no matter how strong you are. The child and
others could be severely injured or killed. An y child riding in your vehicle should be in
a proper restraint for the child's size.
Integrated Child Booster Seat
• The Integrated Child Booster Seat, located in each second-row passenger seat, is
designed for children weighing between 48 and 85 lbs (22 and 39 kg) and between
47 in (119 cm) and 57 in (145 cm) tall.
• To position a child into the Integrated Child Booster Seat follow these steps: • Pull the release handle, located at the fr ont of the seat cushion, forward to release.
Then, lift seat cushion up and push back to lock it in the booster seat position.
WARNING!
Failure to comply with the following conditions could result in serious injury or death:
• The swivel seat should be locked in the forward-facing position when using the booster seat with the vehicle in motion.
• Be certain that the seat cushion is locke d securely into position before using the
seat. An improperly latched seat cushion could cause serious injury.
• Place the child upright in the seat with their back firmly against the seatback.
• Grasp the latch plate and pull out the seat belt.
• Slide the latch plate up the webbing as far as necessary to allow the seat belt to go around the child’s lap.
NOTE: The lap portion of the seat belt should be low on the hips and as snug as
possible.
• Once the seat belt is long enough to fit properly, insert the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.”
• To remove the slack from the lap belt, pull upward on the shoulder portion of the seat belt and release by pushing the red button on the buckle.

Second Row Heated Seats
• Second row heated seat switches arelocated in the sliding door handle trim
panels.
• Press the switch once to select High-level heating. Press the switch a second time to
select Low-level heating. Press the switch a
third time to shut the heating elements Off.
WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age, chronicillness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaustion or other
physical conditions must exercise care when using the seat heater. It may cause
burns even at low temperatures, especially if used for long periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat that insulates against heat, such as a blanket or cushion. This may cause the seat heater to overheat. Sitting in a seat that has been
overheated could cause serious burns due to the increased surface temperature of
the seat.
CAUTION!
Repeated overheating of the seat could damage the heating element and/or degrade
the material of the seat.
GETTING STARTED
16

• Connect the opposite end of the negative(-)jumper cable to a good engine ground
(exposed metal part of the discharged vehicle's engine) away from the battery and
fuel injection system.
WARNING!
Do not connect the cable to the negative post (-)of the discharged battery. The
resulting electrical spark could cause the battery to explode and could result in
personal injury.
• Start the engine in the vehicle that has the booster battery, let the engine idle a few minutes, and then start the engine in the vehicle with the discharged battery.
Once the engine is started, remove the jumper cables in the reverse sequence:
• Disconnect the negative (-)jumper cable from the negative (-)post of the vehicle with
the discharged battery.
• Disconnect the negative end (-)of the jumper cable from the negative (-)post of the
booster battery.
• Disconnect the opposite end of the positive (+)jumper cable from the positive (+)
post of the booster battery.
• Disconnect the positive (+)end of the jumper cable from the positive (+)post of the
discharged vehicle.
• If frequent jump-starting is required to start your vehicle you should have the battery and charging system inspected at your authorized dealer.
CAUTION!
Accessories that can be plugged into the vehicle power outlets draw power from the
vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if
plugged in long enough, the vehi cle’s battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the engine from starting.
