WARNING!
•Pedals that cannot move freely can cause loss of vehicle control and increase the
risk of serious personal injury.
•Always make sure that objects cannot fall into the driver foot well while the ve-
hicle is moving.Objects can become trapped under the brake pedal and accelera-
tor pedal causing a loss of vehicle control.
•Failure to properly follow floor mat installation or mounting can cause interference
with the brake pedal and accelerator pedal operation causing loss of control of
the vehicle.
•Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.Al-
lowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of rea-
sons.A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured.Children should be
warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift buttons.
•Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location accessible to chil-
dren.A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
•Never use the ‘PARK’ position as a substitute for the parking brake.Always apply
the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and pos-
sible injury or damage.
•Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

VEHICLE SECURITY ALARM
The Vehicle Security Alarm monitors the vehicle doors for unauthorized entry and the
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ START/STOP button for unauthorized operation.While the Vehicle
Security Alarm is armed, interior switches for door locks and decklid release are disabled.
If something triggers the alarm, the Vehicle Security Alarm will provide the following au-
dible and visible signals: the horn will pulse, the park lamps and/or turn signals will flash,
and the Vehicle Security Light in the instrument cluster will flash.
To Arm:
Push the Key Fob LOCK button.
To Disarm The System:
Push the Key Fob UNLOCK button or cycle the ignition to the ON/RUN 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 pre-
viously described arming sequences has occurred, the Vehicle Security Alarm will arm re-
gardless 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.

SEAT BELT SYSTEMS
Lap/Shoulder Belts
•All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped with lap/shoulder belts.
•Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
•Position the lap belt so that it is snug and lies low across your hips, below your abdo-
men.To remove slack in the lap belt portion, pull up 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 seat belt
reduces the risk of sliding under the seat belt in a collision.
•Position the shoulder belt across the shoulder and chest with minimal, if any slack so
that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck.The retractor will withdraw any
slack in the shoulder belt.

WARNING!
•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 Side Air Bags during deployment could cause you to be
severely injured or killed.
•Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision.
The Side Air Bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly.In some colli-
sions, Side Air Bags won’t deploy at all.Always wear your seat belt even though
you have Side Air Bags.
•This vehicle is equipped with left and right Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable
Curtains (SABICs).Do not stack luggage or other cargo up high enough to block
the deployment of the SABICs.The trim covering above the side windows where
the SABIC and its deployment path are located should remain free from any ob-
structions.
•This vehicle is equipped with SABICs.In order for the SABICs to work as in-
tended, do not install any accessory items in your vehicle which could alter the
roof.Do not add an aftermarket sunroof to your vehicle.Do not add roof racks
that require permanent attachments (bolts or screws) for installation on the ve-
hicle roof.Do not drill into the roof of the vehicle for any reason.
•Do not use accessory seat covers or place objects between you and the Side Air
Bags; the performance could be adversely affected and/or objects could be pushed
into you, causing serious injury.
CHILD RESTRAINTS
Children 12 years or younger 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.
NOTE:
•For additional information, refer to www.Seatcheck.org or call 1-866-SEATCHECK.
•Canadian residents should refer to Transport Canada’s website for additional informa-
tion: http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/motorvehiclesafety/safedrivers-childsafety-index-53.htm

Center Seat LATCH
WARNING!
This vehicle does not have a center seating position.Do not use the center lower
LATCH anchorages to install a child seat in the center of the back seat.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The LATCH Lower Anchors
NOTE:
Never“share” a LATCH anchorage with two or more child restraints.
1.Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap of the child seat so
that you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle anchorages.
2.Attach the lower hooks or connectors of the child restraint to the lower anchorages
in the selected seating position.
3.If the child restraint has a tether strap, connect it to the top tether anchorage.
See below for directions to attach a tether anchor.
4.Tighten all of the straps as you push the child restraint rearward and downward into
the seat.Remove slack in the straps according to the child restraint manufacturer’s
instructions.
5.Test that the child restraint is installed tightly by pulling back and forth on the child seat
at the belt path.It should not move more than 1 inch (25.4 mm) in any direction.
Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts
The seat belts in the passenger seating positions are equipped with a Switchable Auto-
matic Locking Retractor (ALR) that is designed to keep the lap portion of the seat belt
tight around the child restraint.Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the
belt occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.
Tether Weight Limit
Always use the tether anchor when using the seat belt to install a forward facing child
restraint, up to the recommended weight limit of the child restraint.
To Install A Child Seat Using An ALR:
1.Pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to pass it through the belt
path of the child restraint.Do not twist the belt webbing in the belt path.
2.Slide the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a “click.”
3.Pull on the webbing to make the lap portion tight against the child seat.
