TABLE OF CONTENTS

WARNING!
• Relying on the air bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in acollision. 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 and Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags 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 and/or Seat-Mounted Side Air Bag 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 and under should ride properly buckled up in a rearseat, 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.
Installing The LATCH - Compatible Child Restraint System
• Your vehicle's second row passenger seats are equipped with the childrestraint anchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower
Anchors and Tether for CHildren.
• All three rear seating positions have lower anchorages that are capable of accommodating LATCH-compatible child seats having flexible,
webbing-mounted lower attachments.
• Child seats with fixed lower attachments must be installed in the outboard positions only.
• The vehicle's seat belt must be used for the center position.
• Never install LATCH-compatible child seats such that two seats share a common lower anchorage.
GETTING STARTED
18

• Once you have completed securing the child restraint with the seat belt,secure the top tether strap. The tether strap should be attached to the
tether anchor on the rear of the seatback (behind the gap panel) using
the most direct path. DO NOT USEthe cargo tie down loops located on
the load floor.
WARNING!
• In a collision, an unrestrained child, even a tiny baby, can become a projectile inside the vehicle. The force required to hold even an
infant on your lap could become so great that you could not hold
the child, no matter how strong you are. The child and others could
be severely injured or killed. Any child riding in your vehicle should
be in a proper restraint for the child's size.
• Improper installation of a child restraint to the LATCH anchorages can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. The child could be
severely injured or killed. Follow the manufacturer’s directions
exactly when installing an infant or child restraint.
• An incorrectly anchored tether strap could lead to increased head motion and possible injury to the child. Use only the anchor
positions directly behind the child seat to secure a child restraint
top tether strap.
• Rearward-facing child seats must never be used in the front seat of a vehicle with a front passenger air bag. An air bag deployment
could cause infants in this position to be severely injured or killed.
FRONT SEATS
Power Seats
• The recline switch, located on theoutboard side of the seat, controls
seatback adjustment.
• The power seat switch controls forward/back, up/down and tilt
adjustment.

CAUTION!
Do not place any article under a power seat or impede its ability to
move as it may cause damage to the seat controls. Seat travel may
become limited if movement is stopped by an obstruction in the seat's
path.
WARNING!
• Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. Thesudden movement of the seat could cause you to lose control. The
seat belt might not be properly adjusted, and you could be severely
injured or killed. Only adjust a seat while the vehicle is parked.
• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no longer resting against your chest. In a collision, you could slide
under the seat belt and be severely injured or killed. Use the recliner
only when the vehicle is parked.
REAR SEATS
60/40 Split Rear Seat
To Lower Rear Seatback
• With the front seats fully upright and positioned forward, pull
upward on the release lever and
fold the rear seatback down.
To Raise Rear Seatback • Raise the rear seatback and lock it into place.
To Recline Rear Seatback • To recline the seatback, lean forward before lifting the handle, then lean back to the desired position and release the handle. Lift the handle to
return the seatback to an upright position.

HEATED/VENTILATED SEATS
Front Heated Seats
• The controls for front heated seatsare located near the bottom
center of the instrument panel
(below the Climate Controls).
• Press the switch once to select High-level heating. Press the
switch a second time to select

switch a third time to shut the
heating elements Off.
• If the High-level setting is selected, the system will automatically switch to Low-level after approximately 55 minutes. The Low-level setting will
turn Off automatically after approximately 45 minutes.
Front Ventilated Seats
• Located in the seat cushion and seatback are small fans that draw the airfrom the passenger compartment and blow air through fine perforations
in the seat cover to help keep the driver and front passenger cooler in
higher ambient temperatures.
• There are two ventilated seat switches that allow the driver and passenger to operate the seats independently. The ventilated seat
switches are located on the switch bank in the center stack of the
instrument panel, just below the climate controls. The ventilated seat
switches are used to control the speed of the fans located in the seat.
Press the switch once to choose HIGH, press it a second time to choose
LOW. Pressing the switch a third time will turn the ventilated seat OFF.
When HIGH speed is selected both lights on the switch will be
illuminated. When LOW speed is selected one light will be illuminated.
Rear Heated Seats
• Second row heated seat switchesare located on the rear of the
center console.
• Press the switch once to select High-level heating. Press the
switch a second time to select
Low-level heating. Press the
switch a third time to shut the
heating elements Off.
