• This vehicle may be equipped with driver and/or front passenger seat track position sensors that may adjust the inflation rate of the Advanced Front Air Bags
based upon seat position.
•
If the Air Bag Warning Lightis not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while
driving, have the vehicle serviced by an authorized service dealer immediately.

WARNING!
• Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a collision.The air bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some
collisions, the air bags won't deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even
though you have air bags.
• Being too close to the steering wheel or instrument panel during Advanced
Front Air Bag deployment could cause serious injury, including death. Air bags
need room to inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the
steering wheel or instrument panel.
• Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains (SABIC) and Supplemental
Side Air Bag (SAB) 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 Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtain (SABIC)
and Supplemental Side Air Bag (SAB) during deployment could cause you to
be severely injured or killed.
• 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.
• After any collision, the vehicle should be taken to an authorized dealer
immediately.
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:
•

(1–866–732–8243).

• To apply the park brake manually, pull up on the switch momentarily. The
BRAKE warning lamp in the instru-
ment cluster and an indicator on the
switch will illuminate.
• To release the park brake manually, the ignition switch must be in RUN.
Then put your foot on the brake pedal
and push the park brake switch down
momentarily. Once the park brake is
fully disengaged, the BRAKE warning
lamp and the switch indicator will extinguish.

• Safehold is a new feature that will automatically apply the park brake under certain conditions. The EPB monitors the status of the driver’s seat belt, driver’s
door and pedal positions to determine that you may have exited while the vehicle
is still capable of moving, and will then automatically apply the park brake to
prevent the vehicle from rolling.
• Refer to the Starting and Operating section of your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual for further details.

WARNING!
• Do not let children play with the sunroof. Never leave children unattended in avehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Do not leave the Key Fob in or
near the vehicle, and do not leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped with
Keyless Enter-N-Go™ in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. Occupants, particularly
unattended children, can become entrapped by the power sunroof while
operating the power sunroof switch. Such entrapment may result in serious
injury or death.
• In a collision, there is a greater risk of being thrown from a vehicle with an open
sunroof. You could also be severely injured or killed. Always fasten your seat
belt properly and make sure all passengers are properly secured.
• Do not allow small children to operate the sunroof. Never allow your fingers,
other body parts, or any object to project through the sunroof opening. Injury
may result.
WIND BUFFETING
Wind buffeting can be described as a helicopter-type percussion sound. If buffeting
occurs with the rear windows open, adjust the front and rear windows together.
If buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening, or adjust any
window. This will minimize buffeting.
