MANUAL LIFTGATE
WARNINGS
It is extremely dangerous to ride in
the cargo area, inside or outside of
your 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 does not have seats and safety belts.
Make sure everyone in your vehicle is in a
seat and using a safety belt correctly. Make sure that the liftgate is closed
to prevent exhaust fumes from being
drawn into your vehicle. This will also
prevent passengers and cargo from falling
out. If you must drive with the liftgate door
open, keep your vehicle well ventilated so
outside air does not enter your vehicle. Note:
Be careful when opening or closing
the liftgate in a garage or other enclosed
area to avoid damaging the liftgate.
Note: Do not hang anything (bike rack, etc.)
from the spoiler, glass or liftgate. This could
damage the liftgate and its components.
Note: Do not leave the liftgate open while
driving. This could damage the liftgate and
its components.
Opening and Closing the Liftgate
To Open the Liftgate Press the button located in the top of the
liftgate pull cup handle to unlatch the
liftgate, then pull on the outside handle.
Opening With the Remote Control
Press the button twice within
three seconds.

permanent heating.
Note: If you select either position low or
high, the system will not regulate a stable
temperature. HINTS ON CONTROLLING THE
INTERIOR CLIMATE
General Hints
Note:
Prolonged use of recirculated air may
cause the windows to fog up.
Note: A small amount of air may be felt
from the footwell air vents regardless of the
air distribution setting.
Note: To reduce humidity build-up inside
your vehicle, do not drive with the system
switched off or with recirculated air always
switched on.

SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION
WARNINGS
Do not recline the seatback too far
as this can cause the occupant to
slide under the safety belt, resulting
in serious injury in the event of a collision. Sitting improperly, out of position or
with the seatback reclined too far,
can result in serious injury or death
in the event of a collision. Always sit
upright against your seatback, with your
feet on the floor. Do not place objects higher than the
seatback to reduce the risk of serious
injury in the event of a collision or
during heavy braking. When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, safety belt and air bags will
provide optimum protection in the event
of a collision.
We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:
•
Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.
• Do not recline the seatback more than
30 degrees. •
Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of it is level with the top of your
head and as far forward as possible.
Make sure that you remain
comfortable.
• Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of 10 inches
(25 centimeters) between your
breastbone and the air bag cover.
• Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.
• Bend your legs slightly so that you can
press the pedals fully.
• Position the shoulder strap of the
safety belt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.
Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.
HEAD RESTRAINTS WARNINGS
Fully adjust the head restraint before
you sit in or operate your vehicle. This
will help minimize the risk of neck
injury in the event of a crash. Do not adjust
the head restraint when your vehicle is
moving. The head restraint is a safety device.
Whenever possible it should be
installed and properly adjusted when
the seat is occupied. An improperly
adjusted head restraint may not
adequately protect an occupant during an
impact from the rear. Install the head restraint properly to
help minimize the risk of neck injury
in the event of a crash.

2. Push the seatback forward. 3. Stow the safety belt in the belt
stowage clip. This prevents the safety
belt from getting caught in the seat
latch.
Note: Do not attempt to fold the rear seat
cushion forward.
Unfolding the Seatback WARNINGS
When unfolding the seatback up,
take care not to get your hands
caught between the seatback and
the frame, catches or mechanism. Failure
to take care may result in personal injury. Make sure that any cargo or objects
are not trapped behind the seatback.
Make sure the safety belts are not
trapped in any way when unfolding the
seatback up. Failure of an occupant to be
able to use a trapped safety belt increases
the risk of serious personal injury or death. Make sure that the seatback is fully
engaged in its catch. A seatback
which is not fully engaged in its catch
could move in the event of an accident.
This may result in serious personal injury
or death. HEATED SEATS

People who are unable to feel pain
to their skin because of advanced
age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal
cord injury, medication, alcohol or drug use,
exhaustion or other physical conditions,
must exercise extreme care when using
the heated seat. The heated seat may
cause burns even at low temperatures,
especially if used for long periods of time.
An overheated seat may cause serious
personal injury.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
Electronic Stability Program
WARNINGS
The system does not relieve you of
your responsibility to drive with due
care and attention. Failure to drive
with due care and attention could lead to
loss of vehicle control. Vehicle modifications involving
braking system, aftermarket roof
racks, suspension, steering system,
tire construction and wheel and tire size
may change the handling characteristics
of the vehicle and may adversely affect
the performance of the AdvanceTrac
system. In addition, installing any stereo
loudspeakers may interfere with and
adversely affect the AdvanceTrac system.
Install any aftermarket stereo loudspeaker
as far as possible from the front center
console, the tunnel, and the front seats in
order to minimize the risk of interfering with
the AdvanceTrac sensors. Reducing the
effectiveness of the AdvanceTrac system
could lead to an increased risk of loss of
vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal
injury and death. Remember that even advanced
technology cannot defy the laws of
physics. It’
s always possible to lose
control of a vehicle due to inappropriate
driver input for the conditions. Aggressive
driving on any road condition can cause
you to lose control of your vehicle
increasing the risk of personal injury or
property damage. Activation of the
AdvanceTrac system is an indication that
at least some of the tires have exceeded
their ability to grip the road; this could
reduce the operator ’s ability to control the
vehicle potentially resulting in a loss of
vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal
injury and death. If your AdvanceTrac
system activates, SLOW DOWN. Without Advance Trac

The system supports stability when your
vehicle starts to slide away from your
intended path. This is performed by braking
individual wheels and reducing engine
torque as needed.
The system also provides an enhanced
traction control function by reducing
engine torque if the wheels spin when you
accelerate. This improves your ability to
pull away on slippery roads or loose
surfaces, and improves comfort by limiting
wheel spin in hairpin bends.
Stability Control Warning Lamp
While driving, it flashes when the system
is operating. See Warning Lamps and
Indicators (page 78).
