move. Don't leave the keys in your
vehicle with children and keep them in
a place where your children will not
find or play with them.

doors with the keyless entry system
transmitter while not watching the
doors move is dangerous. People or
animals could be injured when the
doors open along the rear sides and
back to the rear fender, or in closing.
Allowing children to use the

injuries despite the jam-safe feature.
Always be sure that the doorway and
rear fender area are clear before
activating the power sliding doors and
be particularly careful when using the
keyless entry system transmitter. Be
sure to view the doors opening or
closing and do not operate a door on
either side if you can't fully see it.
Always make sure that you watch the
power sliding doors close completely
and be sure your children do not have
access to the transmitter.
When a power sliding door is completely
closed/opened and a power sliding door
open/close transmitter button is pressed,
the door opens/closes after the beep
sounds.
NOTE

completely closed, pressing the
power sliding door open/close
transmitter button will open the door
completely.
lPress the button to stop the power
sliding doors while they are opening/
closing.

attempting to break into or damage your
vehicle, pressing the panic button will
activate the vehicle's alarm.
NOTE
The panic button will work whether
any door or the liftgate is open or
closed.

more will trigger the alarm for about 2
minutes and 30 seconds, and the
following will occur:
lThe horn sounds intermittently.

WARNING
Unattended Children and Pets:
Leaving a child or an animal
unattended in a parked vehicle is
dangerous. In hot weather,
temperatures inside a vehicle can
become high enough to cause brain
damage or even death. Always take all
children and animals with you or
leave a responsible person with them.
Keys and Children:
Leaving children in a vehicle with the
key is dangerous. This could result in
someone being badly injured or even
killed. They could play with power
windows or other controls, or even
make the vehicle move. Don't leave the
keys in your vehicle with children and
keep them in a place where your
children will not find or play with
them.
Unlocked Doors:
Unlocked doors in a moving vehicle
are dangerous. Passengers can fall out
if a door is accidentally opened and
can more easily be thrown out in an
accident. So keep all doors locked
when driving.

Vehicles Left Unlocked:
Leaving your vehicle unlocked is
dangerous as children could lock

could result in death. Also, a vehicle
left unlocked becomes an easy target

take the key with you when leaving
your vehicle unattended.

WARNING
Operating Power Sliding Doors:
Opening or closing the power sliding
doors while not watching the doors
move is dangerous. People or animals
could be injured when the doors open
along the rear sides and back to the
rear fender, or in closing. Because of
unseen obstacles and the jam-safe
feature a door may not close
completely and, if left unnoticed, could
result in serious injury or death if an
occupant were to fall out of the
vehicle.
Always be sure that the doorway and
rear fender area is clear before
activating the power sliding doors. Be
sure to view the power sliding doors
opening or closing and make sure that
you watch them close completely.
WARNING
Moving the Vehicle while Closing
Power Sliding Doors:
Shifting out of Park (P) while the
doors are moving is dangerous. The
doors will not close completely and
this could result in serious injury or
death if an occupant were to fall out of
the vehicle. Occupants in the vehicle
will also not have full protection in a
collision. Always be sure the doors
completely close before you shift into
gear and move the vehicle.
Children and the Power Sliding Door
Switches:
Allowing children to operate the
power sliding door switches and the
keyless entry system is dangerous.
Children are not aware of the dangers
of people getting fingers and hands
caught in moving doors. Never allow
children to operate the power sliding
door system.
Open Windows and Power Sliding
Doors:
It is dangerous to stick your head or
hands out the power sliding door
windows while the doors are opening/
closing. A head or hands could be
caught resulting in serious injury.
Never stick your head or hands out the
power sliding door windows.

WARNING
Closing Power Windows:
Closing power windows are
dangerous. A person's hands, head, or
even neck could be caught by the
window and result in serious injury or
even death.
This warning applies especially to
children. Make sure the opening is
clear before closing a window.
Children and Power Windows:
Leaving the power window switches
unlocked while children are in the
vehicle is dangerous. Power window
switches that are not locked with the
power window lock switch would allow
children to operate power windows
unintentionally which could result in
serious injury if a child's hands, head
or neck becomes caught by the
window. Always lock all passenger
power windows with the power
window lock switch on the driver's
side while children are in the vehicle,
and never allow children to play with
power window switches.
CAUTION
To prevent burning out the fuse and
damaging the power window system,
don't open or close more than three
windows at once.
