•Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details regarding the Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS).
WARNING!
•Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision.The air
bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions, the air bags
won't deploy at all.Always wear your seat belts even though you have air bags.
• Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced Front
Air Bag deployment could cause serious injury, including death.Air bags need room
to inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering wheel or
instrument panel.
• Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains and Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side
Air Bags 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 Air Bag Inflatable Curtain and/or
Seat-Mounted Side Air Bag during deployment could cause you to be severely
injured or killed.
• Do not drive your vehicle after the air bags have deployed. If you are involved in
another collision, the air bags 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 anchorage
system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for CHildren. LATCH child
restraint anchorage systems are installed in both rear seating positions.
• NEVER install compatible child seats so that two seats share a common lower anchorage.

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 then 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.
• Once you have completed securing the child restraint with the seat belt, secure the top tether
strap.The tether strap should be routed under the center of the head restraint.
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 badly injured.Any child riding in your vehicle should be in a proper
restraint for the child's size.
• Improper installation of a child restraint to the anchorages can lead to failure of an
infant or child restraint.The child could be severely injured or killed. Follow the
manufacturer’s directions exactly when installing an infant or child restraint.
• An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and
possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor positions directly behind the child
seat to secure a child restraint top tether strap.
• Rearward-facing child seats must never be used in the front seat of a vehicle with a
front passenger air bag.An air bag deployment could cause severe injury or death to
infants in this position.
FRONT SEATS

Recliner
•To recline the seatback, lift up the recline lever,
located on the inboard side of the seat, lean
back until the desired position has been
reached, and release the lever.
Seat Height
• The driver’s seat height can be raised or
lowered by using a lever, located on the
outboard side of the seat. Pump the lever
upward to raise the seat height, or pump the
lever downward to lower the seat height.
EZ Entry Seats
•Pull forward on the lever, located on the side
of the seatback, to dump the seatback forward
and slide the seat forward.This allows for
easier access to the rear seat.
• The driver seat has a memory feature.After
using the EZ Entry function, the seat back and
adjuster will re-lock into the original position at
which the seat was previously adjusted to.
WARNING!
Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous.The sudden movement of the
seat 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.

REAR SEATS
Folding Rear Seatback
•To fold each rear seatback, push down on the
button located on the upper outboard side of
the seat and fold the seatback flat.
NOTE: Be sure that the front seats are fully
upright and positioned forward.This will allow
the rear seatback to fold down easily.
TILT STEERING COLUMN
• The tilt lever is located on the steering
column, below the turn signal lever.
• Push down on the lever to unlock the steering
column.
• With one hand firmly on the steering wheel,
move the steering column up or down as
desired.
• Pull upward on the lever to lock the column
firmly in place.
WARNING!
Do not adjust the steering column while driving.Adjusting the steering column while
driving or driving with the steering column unlocked could cause the driver to lose
control of the vehicle. Be sure the steering column is locked before driving your vehicle.
Failure to follow this warning may result in severe injury or death.

HEATED SEATS
Front Heated Seats
•The controls for the front heated seats are
located on the center instrument panel area.
• Press the switch once to turn on the heated
seat. Press the switch a second time to turn off
theheatedseat.
WARNING!
•Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age, chronic
illness, 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.
