Wiper Operation
The windshield wipers and washers can be used when the vehicle is on.
Front Wipers
Move the wiper lever up or down to the desired position.
Headlight-Wiper Integration*
When the headlights are in the AUTO position, they automatically turn on when the front wipers operate several times within a certain interval. The headlights turn off shortly after the wipers are turned off, or if there is enough
ambient light.
Rear Wiper
Rotate the end of the wiper lever to the desired position. When you shift to Reverse (R) and the front wipers are activated, the rear wiper activates even if the switch is off.
Do not use the wipers when the windshield is dry. The windshield will get  scratched, or the rubber blades will get damaged.
In cold weather, the blades may freeze to the windshield, becoming stuck.  Operating the wipers in this condition may damage the wipers. Use the
defroster to warm the windshield, or manually clear the windshield of ice and snow before turning on the wipers.

Reclining the seat-back too far can result in serious injury or death in a crash. Adjust the seat-back to an upright position, and sit well back in the seat.
WARNING
Adjusting the Seats
Make seat adjustments before driving to ensure the best comfort and safety.
Adjusting the Front Seats
Adjust the driver’s seat as far back as possible while  allowing you to maintain full control of the vehicle.
You should be able to sit upright and well back in the seat, adequately press the pedals without leaning 
forward, and grip the steering wheel comfortably. 
The passenger’s seat should be adjusted so that it is as far back from the front airbag in the dashboard as possible.
The National Highway Trafc Safety Administration and Transport Canada
recommend that drivers allow at least 10 inches (25 cm) between the center of the steering wheel and the chest.
Move back and allow 
sufcient space.

Sitting too close to a front airbag can result in serious injury or death if the  front airbags inlate. Always sit as far back from the front airbags as possible while maintaining  control of the vehicle.
WARNING
Reclining the Front Seats
You can recline the seat-backs of the front seats so they are level with the rear  seat cushions to make a large cushioned area.
1. Remove the front head restraints (see page 40). Store the head restraints in the cargo area.
2. Adjust the front seats forward as far as possible.
3. Pivot the seat-back backward with the seat-back angle adjustment lever to be level with the rear seat cushion.
4. Move the front seat backward until it touches the rear seat.
5. Unlatch the detachable anchor from the anchor buckle, and store the rear center seat belt (see page 8).
6. Adjust the rear seat-back to the desired position.
To return the front seats to their original positions, reverse this procedure. When you return the seat-back to its upright position, hold the seat-back to keep it from 
going up too quickly.

Improperly positioning head restraints reduces their effectiveness and  increases the likelihood of serious injury in a crash.
Make sure head restraints are in place and positioned properly before driving.
WARNING
Failure to reinstall, or correctly reinstall, the head restraints can result in severe injury during a crash. Always replace the head restraints before driving.
WARNING
Adjusting the Head Restraints
Your vehicle is equipped with head restraints in all seating positions. Head 
restraints are most effective for protection against whiplash and other rear-impact crash injuries.
The center of the back of the occupant’s head  should rest against the center of the restraint. The
tops of the occupant’s ears should be level with the center height of the restraint.
To raise the head restraint: Pull it upward.
To lower the head restraint: Push it down while
pressing the release button.
To remove the head restraint: Pull the restraint up as
far as it will go. Then push the release button, and  pull the restraint up and out.
To reinstall a head restraint:  Insert the legs back 
in place, then adjust the head restraint to an appropriate height while pressing the release button. Pull up on the restraint to make sure it is locked in position. In order for the head restraint system to work properly:
•  Do not hang any items on the head restraints, or from the restraint legs.
•  Do not place any object between an occupant and the seat-back.
•  Install each restraint in its proper location.

2. Lower the head restraint to its lowest position (see page 40).
3. Pull the release lever and fold down the seat-back. 
Make sure all items in the cargo area or items extending to the rear seats are properly secured. Loose items can ly forward if you have to brake hard.
To return the seat to the original position, pull up the seat-back to the upright  position.
Folding Up Rear Seats
1. Make sure the seat belt buckles are in their loops  on the seat.
2. Pull up the rear seat cushion.
3. Fold the seat leg down while pushing the seat cushion irmly against the seat-back to lock it.
To return the seat to its original position, hold the seat cushion in the upright position, and pull up the
seat leg fully. Slowly put down the seat cushion and set the seat leg in the oor guide. A latch comes out
when the leg is set properly. Make sure the seat is irmly secured by rocking it  forward and back.

Before Driving
Check the following items before you begin driving.
Exterior Checks
• 
Make sure there are no obstructions on the windows, door mirrors, exterior 
lights, or other parts of the vehicle.
•  Remove any frost, snow, or ice.
•  Make sure the hood is securely closed.
•  Heat from the engine and exhaust can ignite lammable materials left under 
the hood, causing a ire. If you’ve parked your vehicle for an extended period, 
inspect and remove any debris that may have collected, such as dried grass and leaves that have fallen or have been carried in for use as a nest by a small animal. Also check under the hood for leftover lammable materials after you or someone else has performed maintenance on your vehicle.
•  Make sure the tires are in good condition.
•  Make sure there are no people or objects behind or around the vehicle.
Interior Checks
• Store or secure all items on board properly.
•  Do not pile items higher than the seat height.
•  Do not place anything in the front seat footwells. Make sure to secure the loor  mats.
•  If you have any animals on board, do not let them move freely around in the 
vehicle.
•  Securely close and lock all doors and the tailgate.
•  Adjust your seating position, mirrors, and steering wheel properly.
•  Make sure items placed on the loor behind the front seats cannot roll under the 
seats.
•  Everyone in the vehicle must fasten their seat belt.
•  Make sure that the indicators in the instrument panel come on when you start
the vehicle, and go off soon after.
DRIVING
If the doors are frozen shut, use warm water around the door edges to melt any  ice. Do not try to force them open, as this can damage the rubber trim around the doors. When done, wipe dry to avoid further freezing.
