passenger in the event of a collision. All occupants of the vehicle, including the driver , should always wear their safety belts, even when an air bag supplemental restraint system is provided.
AIR BAG DESCRIPTION The air bag system activates in collisions more severe than hitting a parked vehicle of similar size and weight head-on at about 45km/h (28 mph). The air bag system consists of two parts: • The driver air bag in the middle of the steering wheel and the passenger air bag near the glove compartment.
bags, and the air bags deflate. Y ou may notice smoke and smell the escaping gas after the air bags deflate. This is normal. Y ou and your passenger must wear your safety belts in order for the air bag system to operate effectively .
Never let a passenger hold a child on his or her lap while the vehicle is moving. The passenger cannot protect the child from injury in a collision. Always follow the instructions and warnings that come with any infant or child restraint you might use.
OR • If the child is the proper size, restrain the child in a safety seat. CHILDREN AND INF ANT OR CHILD SAFETY SEA TS Carefully follow all of the manufacturer’s instructions included with the safety seat you put in your vehicle. If you do not install and use the safety seat properly , the child may be injured in a sudden stop or collision.
Installing child safety seats in combination lap and shoulder belt seating positions 1. Position the child safety seat in a seat with a combination lap and shoulder belt. If you choose to install a child safety seat in the front passenger seat, move the seat as far back as possible.
3. While holding the shoulder and lap belt portions together , route the tongue through the child seat according to the child seat manufacturer’s instructions. Be sure the belt webbing is not twisted. 4. Insert the belt tongue into the proper buckle for that seating position until you hear and feel the latch engage.
7. Pull the lap belt portion across the child seat toward the buckle and pull up on the shoulder belt while pushing down on the child seat. 8. Allow the safety belt to retract to remove any slack in the belt. 9. Before placing a child in the seat, forcibly tilt the seat forward and back to make sure the seat is securely held in place.

2. Pull both V elcro t straps to release child seat cushion. 3. Lower child seat cushion. Seating and safety restraints 83.
4. Unfold cushion protector flap onto adult seat cushion. 5. If connected, disconnect the chest clip and buckles. 6. Place the child in the seat and position the left shoulder belt over the child’ s left shoulder first, then place the right shoulder belt over the child’ s right shoulder .
7. Insert the left and right safety belt tongues into the left and right slots of the crotch buckle. V erify that the indicator window on each tongue is green to ensure proper safety belt connections. If both tongues do not latch in the buckle, do not use the child seat.
9. Pull on the safety belt tongues to ensure they are both securely latched. If they are not latched, repeat Steps 7 and 8. If necessary , the shoulder belts can be put in automatic locking mode (ALR) to limit the child’ s movement in the child seat.
2. Allow the shoulder belts to fully retract. Removing your child from the built-in child seat 1. Disconnect the chest clip by squeezing the release tabs together and pulling the two sides apart. 2. Press the release button on the crotch buckle. 3. Slide the shoulder belts off the child’ s shoulders and remove child.

2. Press the accelerator all the way to the floor and hold. 3. T urn the key to ST ART . Release it once the engine starts. 4. Release the accelerator gradually as the engine speeds up. If the engine still does not start, refer to Fuel pump shutoff switch in the Roadside emergencies chapter .
GUARDING AGAINST EXHAUST FUMES Carbon monoxide, although colorless and odorless, is present in exhaust fumes. T ake precautions to avoid its dangerous effects. If you smell exhaust fumes inside your vehicle, have your dealer inspect your vehicle immediately .
V entilating your vehicle • If the engine is idling while the vehicle is stopped in an open area for long periods of time, open the windows at least 2.5 cm (1 inch). Adjust the heating or air conditioning to bring in fresh air . • Improve vehicle ventilation by keeping all air inlet vents clear of snow , leaves and other debris.
BRAKES The anti-lock brake system (ABS) Anti-lock brake operation differs slightly from standard brake operation. Apply the brakes steadily . DO NOT pump the brakes in a panic stop. The brake system will prevent wheel lockup by automatically releasing and reapplying the brakes.
ABS warning light The ABS light in the instrument cluster illuminates and remains illuminated if an ABS fault is detected. Have your vehicle serviced as soon as possible. Normal braking operation is still effective unless the light is also illuminated.
Pull release handle towards you to release parking brake. If the parking brake is fully released, but the warning light remains on, have the brakes checked immediately . They may not be working properly . AUTOMA TIC TRANSMISSION OPERA TION (4R70W) Hold the brake pedal down while you move the gearshift from position to position.
Pull gearshift lever towards you and downward to move the automatic gearshift. P - Park Always come to a complete stop before shifting into or out of P (Park). Always set the parking brake fully and make sure that the gearshift is securely latched in P (Park).

on downgrades. T ransmission operates in gears 1-2. 1-L o w Use 1 (Low) to provide maximum engine braking on steep downgrades. Upshifts can be made by shifting to 2 (Second) or to D (Overdrive). Selecting 1 (Low) at higher speeds causes a shift to 2 (Second), and will shift to 1 (Low) after vehicle decelerates to the proper speed.
Do not drive your vehicle until you verify that the brakelamps are working. If your vehicle gets stuck in the mud or snow it may be rocked out of the spot. T o rock the vehicle out, shift between forward and reverse gears in a steady rhythm. Press lightly on the accelerator in each gear .

between forward and reverse gears. DO NOT rock the vehicle for more than a few minutes. The transmission and tires may be damaged or the engine can overheat. Do not spin the wheels at over 55 km/h (35 mph). The tires may fail and injure a passenger or bystander .
• Payload: Combined maximum allowable weight of cargo, passengers and optional equipment. The payload equals gross vehicle weight rating (GVWR) minus base curb weight. • GVW (Gross V ehicle W eight): Base curb weight plus the payload weight (including passengers, cargo, and optional equipment).
• Maximum T railer W eight Rating: Maximum weight of a trailer the vehicle is permitted to tow . The maximum trailer weight rating equals the vehicle curb weight for each engine/transmission combination, any required option weight for trailer towing and the weight of the driver from the GCWR for the towing vehicle.
Do not use replacement tires with lower weight capacities than the original because they may lower the vehicle’s GVWR and GA WR limitations. Replacement tires with a higher weight limit than the originals do not increase the GVWR and GA WR limitations.
If the GVWR or the GA WR specified on the Safety Compliance Certification Label is exceeded, your vehicle may be damaged or you may lose control and injure someone.

T o connect chains when towing with the step bumper , cross the chains under the trailer tongue and allow slack for turning corners.
Trailer lamps T railer lamps are required on most towed vehicles. Make sure your trailer lamps conform to Federal and local regulations. See your dealer or trailer rental agency for the proper instructions and equipment for hooking up trailer lamps. Do not hook the trailer lamps directly into the vehicle’s lighting system wiring.
Servicing while towing If you tow a trailer for long distances, your vehicle will require more frequent service intervals. Refer to the Service Guide for more information. Trailer towing • Practice turning, stopping and backing in an area before starting on a trip to get the feel of the vehicle/trailer combination.
Luggage rack (if equipped) Load luggage as far back as it will safely go without loading more than 45 kg (100 lb) or cause the vehicle to exceed the Gross V ehicle W eight Rating (GVWR) or its Gross Axle W eight Rating (GA WR). Use the following steps to adjust the luggage rack.
• sudden stops • extended engine idling • use of speed control in hilly terrain • extended use of the air conditioner , defroster , rear window defroster and other accessories • underinflated tires • heavy loads • aftermarket add-ons such as bike, ski or luggage racks, bug deflectors, etc.
