achild restraint system in your ve-
hicle, always follow the child restraint system manu-
facturer’s instructions for installation. For additional
information, see “Child restraints” earlier in this sec-
tion.
SRS air bag warning light
The supplemental air bag warning light, displaying in the instrument panel, monitors the circuits
for the air bag systems, pre-tensioner seat belt sys-
tem (where fitted) and all related wiring.
When the ignition switch is in the “ON” position, the
SRS air bag warning light illuminates for about 7
seconds and then turns off. This indicates that the
SRS air bag systems are operational.
Have the air bag systems and/or pre-tensioner seat
belt systems serviced at the nearest approved dealer
or qualified workshop if any of the following condi-
tions occur:
• The SRS air bag warning light remains on after
approximately
7seconds. •
The SRS air bag warning light flashes intermit-
tently.
• The SRS air bag warning light does not illumi-
nate at all.
Under these conditions, the air bag and/or pre-
tensioner seat belt system may not operate prop-
erly. They must be checked and repaired. Contact
an approved dealer or qualified workshop immedi-
ately. SP A1097Z

(where fitted) WARNING
• Do not place any objects on the steering wheel
pad, on the instrument panel, under the steer-
ing column and near the front door finishers
and the front seats. Do not place any objects
between any occupants and the steering
wheel pad, on the instrument panel, and near
the front door finishers and the front seats.
Such objects may become dangerous projec-
tiles and cause injury if asupplemental air
bag inflates.
• Immediately after inflation, several supple-
mental air bag system components will be hot.
Do not touch them: you may severely burn
yourself.
• No unauthorised changes should be made to
any components or wiring of the supplemen-
tal air bag systems. This is to prevent acci-
dental inflation of the supplemental air bags
or damage to the supplemental air bag sys-
tems.
• Do not make unauthorised changes to your
vehicle’s electrical system, suspension sys-
tem, front end structure, and side panels. This
could affect proper operation of the supple-
mental air bag systems. NP A1527

•
Tampering with the supplemental air bag sys-
tems may result in serious personal injury.
Tampering includes changes to the steering
wheel and the instrument panel by placing
materials over the steering wheel pad and
above, around or on the instrument panel or
by installing additional trim materials around
the supplemental air bag systems.
• Work on and around the supplemental air bag
systems should be done by an approved
dealer or qualified workshop. The SRS wiring
should not be modified or disconnected. Un-
authorised electrical test equipment and
probing devices should not be used on the
supplemental air bag systems.
• The SRS wiring harness connectors are yel-
low for easy identification.
• Never install
arear-facing child restraint sys-
tem on the front passenger seat without first
deactivating the passenger air bag with the
front passenger air bag switch. In afrontal
collision, supplemental front-impact air bags
inflate with great force. An inflating supple-
mental front-impact air bag could seriously
injure or kill your child.
When the air bags inflate, afairly loud noise may be
heard, followed by the release of smoke. This smoke
is not harmful and does not indicate afire. Care
should be taken not to inhale it, as it may cause irri-
tation and choking. Those with ahistory of abreath-
ing condition should get fresh air promptly. Supplemental front-impact air bag
system
The driver’s supplemental front-impact air bag is
located at the centre of the steering wheel. The pas-
senger’s supplemental front-impact air bag is lo-
cated at the instrument panel above the glove box.
The supplemental front-impact air bag system is de-
signed to inflate in higher severity frontal collisions,
although it may inflate if the forces in another type of
collision are similar to those of
ahigher severity fron-
tal impact. It may not inflate in certain frontal colli-
sions. Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an
indication of proper supplemental front-impact air
bag system operation. WARNING
Never install
arear-facing child restraint system
on the front passenger seat without first deacti-
vating the passenger air bag with the front pas-
senger air bag switch (where fitted), see “Front
passenger air bag switch (where fitted)” later in
this section. In afrontal collision, supplemental
front-impact air bags inflate with great force. An
inflating supplemental front-impact air bag could
seriously injure or kill your child. Front passenger air bag status light (where fit-
ted):
WARNING
• Since your vehicle is equipped with
af
ront
passenger air bag, it is not permitted to install
ar earward facing child restraint on the front
passenger seat unless the front passenger air
bag has been deactivated first. NP A1531

Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an indi-
cation of proper supplemental driver’s knee air bag
system operation.
Supplemental side-impact air bag
system (where fitted)
The supplemental side-impact air bag is located at
the outside of the front seats’ seatbacks.
The supplemental side-impact air bag system is de-
signed to inflate in higher severity side collisions,
although it may inflate if the forces in another type of
collision are similar to those of ahigher severity side
impact. It may not inflate in certain side collisions.
Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not always an indi-
cation of proper supplemental side-impact air bag
system operation. Supplemental curtain side-impact air
bag system (where fitted)
The supplemental curtain side-impact air bag is lo-
cated at the roof rails.
The supplemental curtain side-impact air bag sys-
tem is designed to inflate in higher severity side col-
lisions, although it may inflate if the forces in another
type of collision are similar to those of ahigher se-
verity side impact. It may not inflate in certain side
collisions. Vehicle damage (or lack of it) is not al-
ways an indication of proper supplemental curtain
side-impact air bag system operation.
PRE-TENSIONER SEAT BELT
SYSTEM (where fitted) WARNING
• The pre-tensioner seat belt cannot be reused
after activation. It must be replaced together
with the retractor and buckle as aunit.
• If the vehicle becomes involved in
acollision
but the pre-tensioner is not activated, be sure
to have the pre-tensioner system checked
and, if necessary, replaced by an approved
dealer or qualified workshop.
• No unauthorised changes should be made to
any components or wiring of the pre-tensioner
seat belt system. This is to prevent accidental
activation of the pre-tensioner seat belt or
damage to the pre-tensioner seat belt sys-
tem. •
Work around or on the pre-tensioner seat belt
system should be done by an approved dealer
or qualified workshop. The SRS wiring should
not be modified or disconnected. Unautho-
rised electrical test equipment and probing
devices should not be used on the pre-ten-
sioner seat belt system.
• If you need to dispose of the pre-tensioner
seat belt system, or scrap the vehicle, contact
an approved dealer or qualified workshop.
Correct pre-tensioner disposal procedures are set forth in the appropriate maintenance
service manual. Incorrect disposal proce-
dures could cause personal injury.
The pre-tensioner is encased with the front seat
belt’s retractor and anchor. These seat belts are
used the same as conventional seat belts.
When the pre-tensioner seat belt activates, afairly
loud noise may be heard, followed by the release of
smoke. This smoke is not harmful and does not indi-
cate afire. Care should be taken not to inhale it, as
it may cause irritation and choking. Those with ahis-
tory of abreathing condition should get fresh air
promptly. SSS1092Z

WARNING
• Never leave children or adults who would nor-
mally require the support of others alone in
your vehicle. Pets should not be left alone
either. They could unknowingly activate
switches or controls, or move the vehicle, and
inadvertently become involved in aserious ac-
cident and injure themselves. On hot, sunny
days, temperatures in aclosed vehicle could
quickly become high enough to cause severe
or possibly fatal illness to people or animals.
• Properly secure all cargo to help prevent it
from sliding or shifting. Do not place cargo
higher than the seatbacks. In
asudden stop
or collision, unsecured cargo could cause per-
sonal injury.
NOTE
During the first few months after purchasing a
new vehicle, if you smell strong odours of Vola-
tile Organic Compounds (VOCs) inside the ve-
hicle, ventilate the passenger compartment thor-
oughly. Open all the windows before entering or
while in the vehicle. In addition, when the tem-
perature in the passenger compartment rises, or
when the vehicle is parked in direct sunlight for a
period of time, turn off the air recirculation mode
of the air conditioner and/or open the windows
to allow sufficient fresh air into the passenger
compartment. EXHAUST GAS (carbon monoxide) WARNING
• Do not breathe exhaust gas; it contains co-
lourless and odourless carbon monoxide. Car-
bon monoxide is dangerous. It can cause un-
consciousness or death.
• If you suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing the vehicle, drive with all windows fully
open, and have the vehicle inspected imme-
diately.
• Do not run the engine in closed spaces such
as
ag arage.
• Do not park the vehicle with the engine run-
ning for an extended period of time.
• If electrical wiring or other cable connections
must pass to
atrailer through the seal of the
body, follow the manufacturer’s recommen-
dations to prevent carbon monoxide entry into
the vehicle.
• If
as pecial body or other equipment is added
for recreational or other usage, follow the
manufacturer’s recommendation to prevent
carbon monoxide entry into the vehicle.
(Some recreational vehicle appliances such
as stoves, refrigerators, heaters, etc. may also
generate carbon monoxide.)
• The exhaust system and body should be in-
spected by
aqualified mechanic whenever:
–Y our vehicle is raised while being serviced. –Y
ou suspect that exhaust fumes are enter-
ing into the passenger compartment.
–Y ou notice achange in the sound of the
exhaust system.
–Y ou have had an accident involving dam-
age to the exhaust system, underbody, or
rear of the vehicle.
AdBlue® SELECTIVE CATALYTIC
REDUCTION (SCR) SYSTEM (where
fitted for diesel engine model)
AdBlue® or Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF), is anon-
toxic solution of 32.5% urea in de-ionized water.
This fluid is sprayed into the exhaust system of die-
sel vehicles to cause achemical reaction that breaks
down potentially dangerous NOx (nitrogen oxides)
emissions into harmless nitrogen and water. This
system is called Selective Catalytic Reduction
(SCR). AdBlue® fluid is not afuel additive and is
never mixed with diesel fuel. It is always stored in a
separate tank on the vehicle.
AdBlue® will begin to freeze below -11°C (12°F). If
you often drive in areas where the temperature is
below -11°C (12°F), the AdBlue® tank should al-
ways be filled with AdBlue® at the beginning of the
cold season to ensure enough defrosting capacity with heating.
