To make the belt shorter, pull its free end as shown until
the belt is snug.
Buckle, position and release it the same way as the lap
part of a lap
-shoulder belt. If the belt isn't long enough,
see ªSafety Belt Extenderº at the end of this section.
Make sure the release button on the buckle is positioned
so you would be able to unbuckle the safety belt quickly
if you ever had to.
Children
Everyone in a vehicle needs protection! This includes
infants and all other children. Neither the distance
traveled nor the age and size of the traveler changes the
need, for everyone, to use safety restraints. In fact, the
law in every state in the United States and in every
Canadian province says children up to some age must be
restrained while in a vehicle.
Infants and Young Children
Every time infants and young children ride in vehicles,
they should have the protection provided by the
appropriate restraint. Young children should not use the
vehicle's safety belts, unless there is no other choice.

Programmable Modes
Mode 1: Cancel the last door closed locking by
pressing the unlock switch or by fully inserting the
key in the ignition.
Mode 2: Override the last door closed locking feature
and lock the doors immediately by pressing the lock
switch a second time.
Mode 3: Let the last door closed locking feature
complete the locking of the vehicle.
When your vehicle was shipped from the factory,
it was programmed to Mode 3. The mode to which
your vehicle was programmed may have been changed
since it left the factory. To determine the mode to which
your vehicle is programmed or to program your vehicle
to a different mode, do the following:
1. Close all doors and turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Press and hold the power door lock switch in the
unlock position.3. While holding the door unlock switch, cycle the
transaxle out of and back into PARK (P). Count the
number of chimes you hear. The number of chimes
tells you which mode your vehicle is set for. (If you
do not wish to change the current mode, you can
either exit the programming mode by following the
instructions listed here or program the next feature
available on your vehicle).
4. A single chime will be heard if the last door closed
locking feature is disabled, and two chimes will be
heard if the feature is enabled. After the initial
transaxle cycle, each additional cycle will turn
the last door closed locking feature on or off.
5. When the door unlock switch is released, the vehicle
will remain in the most recent operating mode.
The mode you selected is now set. You can either exit
the programming mode by following the instructions
above or program the next feature available on
your vehicle.
Disconnecting the battery for up to a year will not
change any previously programmed modes.

Changes or modifications to this system by other than
an authorized service facility could void authorization to
use this equipment.
At times you may notice a decrease in range. This is
normal for any remote system. If the transmitter does
not work or if you have to stand closer to your vehicle
for the transmitter to work, try this:

Check the distance. You may be too far from your
vehicle. You may need to stand closer during rainy
or snowy weather.

Check the location. Other vehicles or objects may
be blocking the signal. Take a few steps to the left
or right, hold the transmitter higher, and try again.

Check to determine if battery replacement is
necessary. See the instructions that follow.

If you're still having trouble, see your dealer or
a qualified technician for service.Operation

the Index for more details).
Press UNLOCK again within five seconds to unlock all
doors. To lock all doors, press LOCK. To unlock the
trunk, press the trunk symbol on the remote keyless
entry transmitter. The trunk will only unlock when the
vehicle is in PARK (P).

Remote Alarm
When you press the alarm button on the remote keyless
entry transmitter, the headlamps will flash, the horn will
sound repeatedly and the interior lamps will illuminate.
This will allow you to attract attention if needed. The
alarm will continue until one of the following occurs:

The driver presses the alarm button on the remote
keyless entry transmitter a second time,

the ignition is turned to ON or

110 seconds has elapsed.
Remote Activation Verification (RAV)
This feature helps provide audible and/or visible
feedback that a remote keyless entry lock or unlock
command has been received and executed. The ignition
must be in OFF for the remote activation verification
to work.
You may select one of four operating modes for lock and
unlock commands. The selection and programming of the
lock and unlock modes are independent of each other.
Programmable Modes
Mode 1: No Verification
Mode 2: Horn Chirp onlyMode 3: Headlamp and Parking Lamp Flash only
Mode 4: Horn Chirp and Headlamp and Parking
Lamp Flash
RAV Lock Mode Programming
When your vehicle was shipped from the factory, it was
programmed to Mode 3. The mode to which your
vehicle was programmed may have been changed since
it left the factory. To determine the RAV lock mode to
which your vehicle is programmed to or to program
your vehicle to a different mode, do the following:
1. Close all doors and turn the ignition switch to ON.
2. Press and hold down the power door lock switch in
the LOCK position.
3. While holding the door lock switch, press and
release the remote keyless entry transmitter
LOCK button. This button press will initialize the
customization mode. Upon initiation of this mode,
the chime will sound. Count the number of chimes
you hear. The number of chimes tells you which
mode your vehicle is set for. (If you do not wish
to change the current mode, you can either exit the
programming mode by following the instructions
listed here or program the next feature available on
your vehicle).

2-15
Illumination on Remote Activation
This feature is included on vehicles with the remote
keyless entry system. The interior illumination will be
activated when a remote keyless entry door unlock
command is received. The ignition must be off for the
remote activation illumination to work. The interior
lamps will illuminate until the ignition is turned to
ON or until the illumination period of 40 seconds
has elapsed.
If during the illumination period, a door is opened, the
timed illumination period will be cancelled, though the
interior lamps will remain on until all doors are closed.
Matching Transmitter(s) to Your Vehicle
Each remote keyless entry transmitter is coded to
prevent another transmitter from unlocking your vehicle.
If a transmitter is lost or stolen, a replacement can be
purchased through your dealer. Remember to bring
any remaining transmitters with you when you go to
your dealer. When the dealer matches the replacement
transmitter to your vehicle, any remaining transmitters
must also be matched. Once your dealer has coded the
new transmitter, the lost transmitter will not unlock your
vehicle. Each vehicle can have only four transmitters
matched to it.
Battery Replacement
Under normal use, the battery in your remote keyless
entry transmitter should last about three years.
You can tell the battery is weak if the transmitter won't
work at the normal range in any location. If you have
to get close to your vehicle before the transmitter works,
it's probably time to change the battery.
NOTICE:
When replacing the battery, use care not to
touch any of the circuitry. Static from your
body transferred to these surfaces may damage
the transmitter.

3. If your engine still won't start (or starts but then
stops), it could be flooded with too much gasoline.
Try pushing your accelerator pedal all the way to
the floor and holding it there as you hold the key
in START for about three seconds. If the vehicle
starts briefly but then stops again, do the same
thing. This time keep the pedal down for five or
six seconds to clear the extra gasoline from the
engine. After waiting about 15 seconds, repeat
the normal starting procedure.
NOTICE:
Your engine is designed to work with the
electronics in your vehicle. If you add electrical
parts or accessories, you could change the way
the engine operates. Before adding electrical
equipment, check with your dealer. If you don't,
your engine might not perform properly.
Engine Coolant Heater (Option)
In very cold weather, 0
F (-18
C) or colder, the
engine coolant heater can help. You'll get easier starting
and better fuel economy during engine warm
-up.
Usually, the coolant heater should be plugged in a
minimum of four hours prior to starting your vehicle.

2-46 Battery Saver
Your vehicle has a feature to help prevent you from
draining the battery in case you accidentally leave an
interior or trunk lamp on. If you leave any of these
lamps on while the ignition is in ACC or OFF, they
will automatically turn off after 20 minutes. The lamps
won't come back on until you do one of the following:

Turn the ignition to ON,

turn the interior lamp thumbwheel all the way up or

open (or close and reopen) a door that is closed.
If the vehicle has less than 15 miles (25 km) on the
odometer, the battery saver will turn off the lamps
after only three minutes.
Mirrors
Adjust all mirrors so you can see clearly when you are
sitting in a comfortable position.
Inside Day/Night Rearview Mirror
To reduce glare from lamps behind you, push the lever
located on the bottom center of the mirror away from
you to the night position. To return the mirror back to
the day position, pull the lever toward you.
Electrochromic Day/Night Rearview Mirror
with Compass and Map Lamps (If Equipped)
Your vehicle may have an automatic electrochromic
day/night rearview mirror with a compass and
map lamps.
This mirror automatically changes to reduce glare from
headlamps behind you. A time delay feature prevents
rapid changing from the day to night positions while
driving under lights and through traffic.
