Preventing Inadvertent Locking Of Passive En-
try RKE Transmitter In Vehicle
To minimize the possibility of unintentionally locking a
Passive Entry RKE transmitter inside your vehicle, the
Passive Entry system is equipped with an automatic
door unlock feature which will function if the ignition is
OFF.
If one of the vehicle doors is open and the door panel
switch is used to lock the vehicle, once all open doors
have been closed the vehicle checks the inside and
outside of the vehicle for any valid Passive Entry RKE
transmitters. If one of the vehicle's Passive Entry RKE
transmitters is detected inside the vehicle, and no
other valid Passive Entry RKE transmitters are de-
tected outside the vehicle, the Passive Entry System
automatically unlocks all vehicle doors and chirps the

WARNING! (Continued)
• In a collision, you and your passengers can
suffer much greater injuries if you are not prop-
erly buckled up.You can strike the interior of your
vehicle or other passengers, or you can be thrown
out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others
in your vehicle are buckled up properly.
• It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside or
outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people riding in
these areas are more likely to be seriously injured
or killed.
• Do not allow people to ride in any area of your
vehicle that is not equipped with seats and seat
belts.
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and
using a seat belt properly.
• Wearing your seat belt incorrectly could make
your injuries in a collision much worse.You might
suffer internal injuries, or you could even slide out
of the seat belt . Follow these instructions to wear
your seat belt safely and to keep your passengers
safe, too.
(Continued)WARNING! (Continued)
• Two people should never be belted into a single
seat belt . People belted together can crash into
one another in a collision, hurting one another
badly. Never use a lap/shoulder belt or a lap belt
for more than one person, no matter what their
size.
• A lap belt worn too high can increase the risk of
injury in a collision.The seat belt forces won’t be
at the strong hip and pelvic bones, but across
your abdomen. Always wear the lap part of your
seat belt as low as possible and keep it snug.
• A twisted seat belt may not protect you prop-
erly. In a collision, it could even cut into you. Be
sure the seat belt is flat against your body, with-
out twists. If you can’t straighten a seat belt in
your vehicle, take it to your authorized dealer
immediately and have it fixed.
• A seat belt that is buckled into the wrong
buckle will not protect you properly. The lap
portion could ride too high on your body, possibly
causing internal injuries. Always buckle your seat
belt into the buckle nearest you.

The SABICs and SABs (“Side Air Bags”) are designed to
activate in certain side impacts and certain rollover
events. The Occupant Restraint Controller (“ORC”)
determines whether the deployment of the Side Air
Bags in a particular side impact or rollover event is
appropriate, based on the severity and type of collision.
Vehicle damage by itself is not a good indicator of
whether or not Side Air Bags should have deployed.
Side Air Bags are a supplement to the seat belt restraint
system. Side Air Bags deploy in less time than it takes to
blink your eyes. Occupants, including children, who are
up against or very close to Side Air Bags can be
seriously injured or killed. Occupants, including chil-
dren, should never lean on or sleep against the door,
side windows, or area where the Side Air Bags inflate,
even if they are in an infant or child restraint.
Seat belts (and child restraints where appropriate) are
necessary for your protection in all collisions. They also
help keep you in position, away from inflating Side Air
Bags. To get the best protection from the Side Air Bags,
occupants must wear their seat belts properly and sit
upright with their backs against the seats. Children
must be properly restrained in a child restraint or
booster seat that is appropriate for the size of the child.WARNING!
• Side Air Bags need room to inflate. Do
n ot

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 in-
jured 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 collisions, Side Air Bags won’t
deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt even
though you have Side Air Bags.
NOTE: Air bag covers may not be obvious in the
interior trim, but they will open during air bag deploy-
ment.
Side Impacts
In side impacts, the side impact sensors aid the ORC in
determining the appropriate response to impact
events. The system is calibrated to deploy the Side Air
Bags on the impact side of the vehicle during impacts
that require Side Air Bag occupant protection. In side
impacts, the Side Air Bags deploy independently; a left
side impact deploys the left Side Air Bags only and a
right side impact deploys the right Side Air Bags only.

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.
WARNING!
Deployed air bags and seat belt preten-
sion er

s cannot protect you in another
collision. Have the air bags, seat belt pretension-
ers, and the seat belt retractor assemblies re-
placed by an authorized dealer immediately.
Also, have the Occupant Restraint Controller Sys-
tem serviced as well.
NOTE:
• Air bag covers may not be obvious in the interior trim, but they will open during air bag deployment.
• After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer immediately. ENHANCED ACCIDENT RESPONSE
SYSTEM
In the event of an impact, if the communication net-
work 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 following functions:
• Cut off fuel to the engine.
• Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power
or until the ignition switch is turned to the “OFF”
position.
• Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power or until the ignition switch
is turned to the “OFF” position.
• Unlock the doors automatically.
SYSTEM RESET PROCEDURE
In order to reset the Enhanced Accident Response
System functions after an event, the ignition switch
must be changed from ignition START or ON/RUN to
ignition OFF.
