ACTIVE HOOD SYSTEM (for versions/
markets, where provided)
The Active Hood system is intended to enhance pe-
destrian protection by elevating the vehicle’s hood
upon an impact with a pedestrian or other object. The
system is automatically activated when the vehicle is
moving within a specified vehicle speed range. In order
to detect a range of pedestrians, other objects that are
impacted may result in an Active Hood deployment.
Deployment Sensors And Controls
The Electronic Pedestrian Protection Module (EPPM)
determines if deployment of the actuators in a frontal
impact is required. Based on the impact sensors signals,
the EPPM determines when to deploy the actuators.
The impact sensors are located within the front bum-
per area.
The EPPM monitors the readiness of the electronic
parts of the Active Hood system whenever the ignition
switch is in the START or ON/RUN position. If the key
is in the LOCK position, in the ACC position, or not in
the ignition, the Active Hood system is not on and the
Active Hood will not deploy.
The EPPM contains a backup power supply system that
may deploy the actuators even if the battery loses
power or it becomes disconnected prior to deploy-
ment.Service Active Hood System
If the EPPM has deployed the Active Hood, or if it
detects a malfunction in any part of the system, it turns
on the Air Bag Warning Light and it will display the
“SERVICE ACTIVE HOOD” message in the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC), for versions/
markets, where provided. A single chime will sound if
the Air Bag Warning Light comes on again after initial
startup. It also includes diagnostics that will illuminate
the Air Bag Warning Light if a malfunction is noted that
could affect the Active Hood system. The diagnostics
also record the nature of the malfunction. If the Air Bag
Warning Light is illuminated, or if “SERVICE ACTIVE
HOOD” appears in the EVIC, see your authorized
dealer.
In the event of an Active Hood deployment, the vehicle
should be serviced by an authorized dealer. The hood
hinges must be serviced and the actuator assemblies
replaced to restore system functionality.
Following an Active Hood deployment, the hood posi-
tion can be temporarily reset by pushing down at the
rear edge over the hood hinges as the internal pressure
of each actuator is relieved. The temporary hood reset
position is intended to improve forward driving visibil-
ity over the hood until the vehicle can be serviced. The
temporary hood reset position will leave the hood

There are different sizes and types of restraints for
children from newborn size to the child almost large
enough for an adult safety belt. Always check the child
seat Owner's Manual to ensure you have the correctseat for your child. Use the restraint that is correct for
your child.
Infants And Child Restraints
Safety experts recommend that children ride
rearward-facing in the vehicle until they are two years
old or until they reach either the height or weight limit
of their rear facing child safety seat. Two types of child
restraints can be used rearward-facing: infant carriers
and convertible child seats.
The infant carrier is only used rearward-facing in the
vehicle. It is recommended for children from birth until
they reach the weight or height limit of the infant
carrier. Convertible child seats can be used either
rearward-facing or forward-facing in the vehicle. Con-
vertible child seats often have a higher weight limit in
the rearward-facing direction than infant carriers do, so
they can be used rearward-facing by children who have
outgrown their infant carrier but are still less than at
least two years old. Children should remain rearward-
facing until they reach the highest weight or height
allowed by their convertible child seat. Both types of
child restraints are held in the vehicle by the lap/
shoulder belt or the ISOFIX child restraint anchor
system. Refer to “ISOFIX — Child Seat Anchorage
System”.

NOTE:In a rollover the pretensioners and/or SAB
and SABIC air bags may deploy on both sides of the
vehicle.
Front And Side Impact Sensors
In front and side impacts, impact sensors can aid the
ORC in determining appropriate response to impact
events.
Enhanced Accident Response System
In the event of an impact causing air bag deployment, if
the communication network remains intact, and the
power remains intact, depending on the nature of the
event the ORC will determine whether to have the
Enhanced Accident Response System perform the fol-
lowing functions:
 Cut off fuel to the engine.
 Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power or until the ignition is cycled off.
 Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power or until the ignition key is
removed.
 Unlock the doors automatically.
In order to reset the Enhanced Accident Response
System functions after an event, the ignition switch
must be changed from IGN ON to IGN OFF. If A Deployment Occurs
The Advanced Front Air Bags are designed to deflate
immediately after deployment.
NOTE:
Front and/or side air bags will not deploy in
all collisions. This does not mean something is wrong
with the air bag system.
If you do have a collision which deploys the air bags, any
or all of the following may occur:
 The nylon air bag material may sometimes cause abrasions and/or skin reddening to the driver and
front passenger as the air bags deploy and unfold.
The abrasions are similar to friction rope burns or
those you might get sliding along a carpet or gymna-
sium floor. They are not caused by contact with
chemicals. They are not permanent and normally
heal quickly. However, if you haven't healed signifi-
cantly within a few days, or if you have any blistering,
see your doctor immediately.
 As the air bags deflate, you may see some smoke-like particles. The particles are a normal by-product of
the process that generates the non-toxic gas used for
air bag inflation. These airborne particles may irritate
the skin, eyes, nose, or throat. If you have skin or eye
irritation, rinse the area with cool water. For nose or
throat irritation, move to fresh air. If the irritation
continues, see your doctor. If these particles settle
