SECURITY ALARM
To Arm:
• Press the Key Fob LOCK button.
To Disarm The System:
•Press the Key Fob UNLOCK button or cycle the ignition to the ON/START position.
• The Vehicle Security Alarm is designed to protect your vehicle; however, you can
create conditions where the Vehicle Security Alarm will give you a false alarm.
If one of the previously described arming sequences has occurred, the Vehicle
Security Alarm will arm regardless of whether you are in the vehicle or not. If you
remain in the vehicle and open a door, the alarm will sound. If this occurs, disarm
the Vehicle Security Alarm.
• If the Vehicle Security Alarm is armed and the battery becomes disconnected the
Vehicle Security Alarm will remain armed when the battery is reconnected. The
exterior lights will flash, and the horn will sound. If this occurs, disarm the Vehicle
Security Alarm.
POWER DOOR LOCKS
• The vehicles power door locks are activated by moving the inside door handles.
• Push or pull the driver’s door handle to lock or unlock the doors and liftgate when
the doors are closed.
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 lap portion, 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 colli-
sion. 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. Dam-
aged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the sys-
tem. 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 col-
lision.

seat belt remains unbuckled, the Seat Belt Reminder Light will illuminate and the chime
will sound.

not buckled up properly. You can strike the interior of your vehicle or other pas-
sengers, 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 right front pas-
senger as a supplement to the seat belt restraint system. The Advanced Front Air
Bags will not deploy in every type of collision.
• Advanced Front Air Bags are designed to provide additional protection by supple-
menting the seat belts in certain frontal collisions depending on several factors,
including the severity and type of collision. Advanced Front Air Bags are not ex-
pected to reduce the risk of injury in rear, side, or rollover collisions.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains to
protect the driver, front and rear passengers sitting next to a window.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags to pro-
vide enhanced protection to help protect an occupant during a side impact.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Driver Side Knee Air Bag to provide
enhanced protection and work together with the Driver Advanced Front Air Bag
during a frontal impact.
• If the Air Bag Warning Lightis not on during starting, stays on, or turns on
while driving, have the vehicle serviced by an authorized dealer immediately.
