• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags to provide


enhanced protection to help protect an occupant during a side impact.


• This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Driver Side Knee Air Bag to provide


enhanced protection and work together with the Driver Advanced Front Air Bag during a frontal impact.


• If the Air Bag Warning Light


is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while


driving, have the vehicle serviced by an authorized service center immediately.


• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details regarding the Supplemental


Restraint System (SRS).


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 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.

GETTING STARTED


CHILD RESTRAINTS • Children 12 years and under 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.


Installing The LATCH-Compatible Child Restraint System


• Your vehicle's second row passenger seats are equipped with the child restraint anchorage system called LATCH, which stands for Lower Anchors and Tether for CHildren. LATCH child restraint anchorage systems are installed at all three rear seating positions.


• Both rear outboard seating positions and the rear center seating position have lower


anchors and top tether anchors.


• Child seats with flexible or fixed rigid attachments can be installed in all rear seating


positions. Child seats can be installed using the LATCH system in either or both outboard seating positions or the center position, but not all three at the same time. If a child seat is installed in an outboard seating position using the lower anchors, then the vehicle seatbelt must be used for the center position.


• Never install LATCH-compatible child seats such that two seats share a common lower


anchorage.


• The rear seat lower anchorages are round bars, located at the rear of the seat cushion


where it meets the seatback. The rear seat lower anchors can be readily identified by the located on the seatback directly above the anchorages and are just visible symbol when you lean into the rear seat to install the child restraint.


• In addition, there are tether strap anchorages behind each rear seating position located in the panel between the rear seatback and the rear window. These tether strap anchorages are under a plastic cover.


• Loosen the child seat adjusters on the


lower straps and tether straps so that you can attach the hook or connector to the lower and tether anchorages more easily.


• Attach the lower hooks or connectors over


the top of the seat cover material.


• Then rotate the tether anchorage cover directly behind the seat where you are placing


the child restrain and attach the tether strap to the anchorage, being careful to route the tether strap to provide the most direct path between the anchor and the child restrain.


14


GETTING STARTED


• Tighten all three straps as you push the


child restraint rearward and downward into the seat.


• For center seating position route the


tether strap over the seatback and adjustable headrest (with the headrest in the full down position) then attach the hook to the tether anchor located in the panel between the rear seatback and the rear window.


Installing The Child Restraint Using The Vehicle Seat Belts


• To install a child restraint, first, pull enough of the seat belt webbing from the retractor to


route it through the belt path of the child restraint and slide the latch plate into the buckle.


• Next, extract all the seat belt webbing out of the retractor and then allow the belt to retract into the retractor. Finally, pull on any excess webbing to tighten the lap portion around the child restraint. Any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally, and pull it tight if necessary.


• Rotate the cover over the anchor directly behind the seat where you are placing the child


restraint. These tether strap anchorages are under a plastic cover.


• Route the tether strap to provide the most direct path for the strap between the anchor


and the child seat.


• Attach the tether strap hook of the child restraint to the anchor and remove slack in the


tether strap according to the child restraint manufacturer’s instructions.


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.


• 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.


• 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.

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE


ENGINE BREAK-IN RECOMMENDATIONS • A long break-in period is not required for the engine and drivetrain (transmission and


axle) in your vehicle.


• Drive moderately during the first 300 miles (500 km). After the initial 60 miles (100 km),


speeds up to 50 or 55 mph (80 or 90 km/h) are desirable.


• While cruising, brief full-throttle acceleration within the limits of local traffic laws


contributes to a good break-in. Wide-open throttle acceleration in low gear can be detrimental and should be avoided.


• The engine oil installed in the engine at the factory is a high-quality energy conserving


type lubricant. Oil changes should be consistent with anticipated climate conditions under which vehicle operations will occur. For the recommended viscosity and quality grades, refer to “Maintaining Your Vehicle”.


NOTE: A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation. This should be considered a normal part of the break-in and not interpreted as an indication of difficulty.


CAUTION!


Never use Non-Detergent Oil or Straight Mineral Oil in the engine or damage may result.

PLAYING iPod/USB/MP3 DEVICES • There are many ways to play music from iPod®/MP3 players or USB devices through your


vehicle's sound system.


1. Audio Jack


• The Audio Jack allows a portable device, such as an MP3 player or a cassette player, to be plugged into the radio and utilize the vehicle’s sound system, using a 3.5 mm audio cable, to amplify the source and play through the vehicle speakers.


• Touching the Player soft-key then choose AUX source will change the mode to auxiliary device if the Audio Jack is connected, allowing the music from your portable device to be heard through the vehicle's speakers.


• The functions of the portable device are controlled using the device buttons. The volume


may be controlled using the radio or portable device.


• To route the audio cable out of the center console, use the access cut out in the front of


the console. 2. USB Port


• Connect your iPod® or compatible device using a USB cable into the USB Port. USB Memory sticks with audio files can also be used. Then, audio from the device can be played on the vehicles sound system while providing metadata (artist, track title, album, etc.) information on the radio display.


• When connected, the iPod®/compatible USB device can be controlled using the radio or Steering Wheel Audio Controls to play, skip to the next or previous track, browse, and list the contents.

to read your music, depending on the number of files. For example, the system will take approximately 5 minutes for every 1000 songs loaded on the device. Also during the reading process, the Shuffle and Browse functions will be disabled. This process is needed to ensure the full use of your iPod® features and only happens the first time it is connected. After the first time, the reading process of your iPod® will take considerably less time unless changes are made or new songs are added to the playlist.


• The USB port supports certain Mini, Classic, Nano, Touch, and iPhone® devices. The USB


port also supports playing music from compatible external USB Mass Storage Class memory devices. Some iPod® software versions may not fully support the USB port features. Please visit Apple’s website for iPod® software updates.
