OCCUP ANT RESTRAINTS Some of the most important safety features in your vehicle are the r estraint systems. The following safety features ar e standard on all vehicles: • Three point lap and shoulde.
W ARNING! In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not properly buck- led up. Y ou can strike the interior of your vehicle or other passengers, or you can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others in your vehicle are buckled up properly .
W ARNING! • Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly . • W earing a seat belt incorrectly is dangerous. Seat belts are designed to go around the large bones of your body . These are the strongest parts of your body and can take the forces of a collision the best.
W ARNING! • A belt that is buckled into the wrong buckle will not protect you properly . The lap portion could ride too high on your body , possibly causing internal injuries. Always buckle your belt into the buckle nearest you. • A belt that is too loose will not protect you as well.
W ARNING! • A belt that is worn under your arm is very dangerous. Y our body could strike the inside sur- faces of the vehicle in a collision, increasing head and neck injury . A belt worn under the arm can cause internal injuries. Ribs aren’t as strong as shoulder bones.
W ARNING! • A lap belt worn too high can increase the risk of internal injury in a collision. The belt forces won’t be at the strong hip and pelvic bones, but across your abdomen. Always wear the lap belt as low as pos- sible and keep it snug. • A twisted belt can’t do its job as well.
Adjustable Upper Shoulder Belt Anchorage In the front seat, the shoulder belt can be adjusted upward or downwar d to position the belt away from your neck. Push anchorage button to release the anchor - age, and move it up or down to the position that serves you best.
3. Allow the belt to retract. As the belt retracts, you will hear a clicking sound. This indicates the safety belt is now in the automatic locking mode.
The Enhanced W arning System (BeltAlert) will be reacti- vated if the driver’s seat belt is unbuckled for more than 10 seconds and the vehicle speed is greater than 5 mph (8 km/h).
Seat Belt Extender If a seat belt is too short, even when fully extended and when the adjustable upper shoulder belt anchorage (if equipped) is in its lowest position, your dealer can provide you with a seat belt extender . This extender should be used only if the existing belt is not long enough.
NOTE: The front airbags ar e certified to the Federal regulations that allow less for ceful deployment. The front airbags have a multistage inflator design. This may allow the airbag to have differ ent rates of inflation that are based on collision severity and occupant size.
Front Seat Airbag Features The front airbag system has dual-stage driver and fr ont passenger airbags. This system provides output appr o- priate to the level of crash severity as determined by the Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) and the impact sensors at the front of the car .
When the bag deploys, it opens the seam between the front and side of the seat’s trim cover . Each bag deploys independently , that is a left side impact deploys the left bag only and a right-side impact deploys only the right bag.
NOTE: Airbag covers may not be obvious in the interior trim; but they will open to allow airbag deploy- ment. The system includes sensors adjacent to both front and rear seat occupants that ar e calibrated to deploy during an impact severe enough to r equire airbag occupant protection.
Airbags inflate in moderate to high speed impacts. Along with seat belts and pretensioners, fr ont airbags work with the knee bolsters to provide impr oved protection for the driver and front passenger . Side airbags also work with seat belts to improve occupant pr otection.
2. All occupants should wear their lap and shoulder belts properly . 3. The driver and front passenger seats should be moved back as far as practical to allow the front airbags room to inflate. 4. If your vehicle has side airbags, do not lean against the door , airbags will inflate forcefully into the space between you and the door .
Airbag Deployment Sensors and Controls Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) The Occupant Restraint Controller System (ORC) is part of a Federally regulated safety system r equired for this vehicle. The ORC determines if a frontal collision is sever e enough to requir e the airbags to inflate.
W ARNING! Ignoring the AIRBAG light in your instrument panel could mean you won’t have the airbags to protect you in a collision. If the light does not come on, stays on after you start the vehicle, or if it comes on as you drive, have the airbag system checked right away .
The following requir ements must be strictly adhered to: • Do not make any modifications to the front passenger seat components, assembly , or to the seat cover in any way . • Do not use prior or future model year seat covers not designated for the specific model being repair ed.
• T urns on the interior lamps which remain on as long as the battery has power or until the ignition key is removed. • Unlocks the doors automatically If A Deployment Occurs The airbag systems ar.
• It is not advisable to drive your vehicle after the airbags have deployed. If you are involved in another collision, the airbags will not be in place to protect you. W ARNING! Deployed airbags and seat belt pretensioners cannot protect you in another collision.
W ARNING! Do not attempt to modify any part of your advanced airbag system. The airbag may inflate accidentally or may not function properly if modifications are made.
NOTE: 1. A near-deployment event occurs when the airbag sensor detects severe vehicle deceleration usually indica- tive of a crash, but not severe enough to warrant airbag deployment. 2. Under certain circumstances, EDR data may not be recor ded (e.g.
Data Parameters that May Be Recorded: • Diagnostic trouble code(s) and warning lamp status for electronically-contr olled safety systems, including the airbag system • Airbag disable lamp status (.
Infants And Small Children There ar e different sizes and types of r estraints for children from newborn size to the child almost lar ge enough for an adult safety belt. Always check the child seat owner’s manual to ensure you have the corr ect seat for your child.
W ARNING! • Improper installation can lead to failure of an infant or child restraint. It could come loose in a collision. The child could be badly injured or killed. Follow the manufacturer’s directions ex- actly when installing an infant or child restraint.
• If the seat belt has a switchable retractor , it will have a distinctive label. T o operate the switchable retractor , please refer to Automatic-Locking Retractor (ALR) in this section.
the vehicle’s seat belt at the center position. If your child restraints ar e not LA TCH-compatible, you can only in- stall the child restraints using the vehicle’s seat belts. Please refer to “Installing the Child Restraint System” for typical installation instructions.
NOTE: When using the LA TCH attaching system to install a child restraint, please ensur e that all seat belts not being used for occupant restraints ar e stowed and out of reach of childr en. It is recommended that befor e installing the child restraint, buckle the seat belt so the seat belt is tucked behind the child restraint and out of reach.
Y ou will first loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap so that you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle anchorages.
1 — Cover 3 — Attaching Strap A — T ether Strap and Hook B — T ether Anchor 2. Route the tether strap to provide the most dir ect path for the strap between the anchor and the child seat.
Pulling up on the shoulder portion of the lap/shoulder belt will tighten the belt. The cinching latch plate will keep the belt tight; however , any seat belt system will loosen with time, so check the belt occasionally , and pull it tight if necessary .
• Make sure that the child is upright in the seat. • The lap portion should be low on the hips and as snug as possible. • Check belt fit periodically . A child’s squirming or slouching can move the belt out of position. • If the shoulder belt contacts the face or neck, move the child closer to the center of the vehicle.
A new engine may consume some oil during its first few thousand miles (kilometers) of operation. This should be considered as a normal part of the br eak-in and not interpreted as an indication of dif ficulty . SAFETY TIPS Exhaust Gas W ARNING! Exhaust gases can injure or kill.

ST ARTING PROCEDURES Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust both inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your seat belt. Make sure all occupants have secur ely fastened their seat belts. W ARNING! Never leave children alone in a vehicle.
start within 15 seconds, turn the ignition switch to the “OFF” position, wait 10 to 15 seconds, then repeat the normal starting procedur e. W ARNING! Do not attempt to push or tow your vehicle to get it started. V ehicles equipped with an automatic trans- axle cannot be started this way .
engine is flooded. Leave the ignition key in the ON position, release the accelerator pedal and r epeat the “NORMAL ST AR TING” procedure. W ARNING! Never pour fuel or other flammable liquid into the throttle body air inlet opening in an attempt to start the vehicle.
To exit the Remote Start mode , allow the engine to run the cycle or depr ess the unlock button to disarm the V ehicle Theft Security Alarm and within one minute insert the key into the ignition and turn the ignition to the RUN position. The ignition must be in the RUN position in order to drive the vehicle.
AUTOMA TIC TRANSAXLE CAUTION! Damage to the transaxle may occur if the following precautions are not observed: • Shift into P ARK only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop. • Shift into or out of REVERSE only after the vehicle has come to a complete stop and the engine is at idle speed.
Brake/T ransaxle Interlock System This system prevents you fr om moving the gear shift out of Park and into any gear unless the brake pedal is pressed. This system is active only while the ignition switch is in the ON or ACC positions. Always depress the brake pedal first, before moving the gear selector out of P ARK.
• Stop the vehicle and shift into Park (P). • T urn the key to OFF then restart the engine. • Shift into the desired range and r esume driving. NOTE: Even if the transaxle can be reset, it is r ecom- mended that you visit a dealer at your earliest possible convenience.
“3” Drive This range eliminates shifts into Overdrive. The transaxle will operate normally in First, Second and Third while in this range. The “3” position should also be used when descending steep grades to prevent brake system dis- tress.
AutoStick 姞 Operation By placing the selector lever one shift level below the ⬙ D ⬙ position, it can be moved from side to side. This allows the driver to select a higher or lower range of gears. Moving the selector lever to the Left (-) triggers a downshift and to the Right (+) an upshift.
• If the system detects a problem it will disable the AutoStick 威 mode and the transaxle will return to the automatic mode until the problem is corr ected. P ARKING BRAKE When the parking brake is applied with the ignition on, the Brake Light in the instrument cluster will come on.
NOTE: When parking on a hill, it is important to set the parking brake before placing the gear selector in Park, otherwise the load on the automatic transaxle locking mechanism may make it difficult to move the selector out of Park.
If either of the two hydraulic systems lose normal capa- bility , the remaining system will still function with some loss of overall braking effectiveness. This will be evident by increased pedal travel during application and gr eater pedal force r equired to slow or stop.
W ARNING! • Anti-lock system (ABS) cannot prevent the natu- ral laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase braking or steering efficiency be- yond that afforded by the condition of the vehicle brakes and tires or the traction afforded.
ABS is activated during braking under certain road or stopping conditions. ABS-inducing conditions can in- clude ice, snow , gravel, bumps, railroad tracks, loose debris, or panic stops.
ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL SYSTEM – ABS/TCS/BAS/ESP Y our vehicle may be equipped with an optional ad- vanced electronic brake contr ol system that includes Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), T raction Control System (TCS), Brake Assist System (BAS) and Electr onic Stability Program (ESP).
W ARNING! • BAS cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase braking efficiency beyond that af forded by the condition of the vehicle brakes and tires or the traction afforded.
W ARNING! • Electronic Stability Program (ESP) cannot prevent the natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road conditions. • ESP cannot prevent accidents, including those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning.
W ARNING! In the Partial ESP mode, the engine torque reduction and stability features are desensitized. Therefore, the enhanced vehicle stability offered by ESP is unavailable.
POWER STEERING The standard power steering system will give you good vehicle response and incr eased ease of maneuverability in tight spaces. The system will provide mechanical steering capability if power assist is lost. If for some reason the power assist is interr upted, it will still be possible to steer your vehicle.
DRIVING ON SLIPPER Y SURF ACES Acceleration Rapid acceleration on snow covered, wet, or other slip- pery surfaces may cause the front wheels to pull errati- cally to the right or left. This phenomenon occurs when there is a dif ference in the surface traction under the front (driving) wheels.
TIRE SAFETY INFORMA TION Tire Markings NOTE: • P (Passenger)-Metric tir e sizing is based on U.S. design standards. P-Metric tir es have the letter “P” molded into the sidewall preceding the size designation. Ex- ample: P215/65R15 95H. • European Metric tir e sizing is based on European design standards.
T ire Sizing Chart EXAMPLE: Size Designation: P = Passenger car tire size based on U.S. design standar ds ⴖ ....blank.... ⴖ = Passenger car tire based on Eur opean design standards LT = Light T ruck tire based on U.
EXAMPLE: Service Description: 95 = Load Index —A numerical code associated with the maximum load a tire can carry . H = Speed Symbol —A symbol indicating the range of speeds at which a tire can carry a load corresponding to its load index under certain operating conditions.
Tire Identification Number (TIN) The TIN may be found on one or both sides of the tire; however , the date code may only be on one side. T ires with white sidewalls will have the full TIN including date code located on the white sidewall side of the tire.
Tire Loading and T ire Pressure T ire Placard Location NOTE: The proper cold tir e inflation pressure is listed on either the face of the driver’s door or the driver’s side “B” pillar .
Loading The vehicle maximum load on the tire must not exceed the load carrying capacity of the tire on your vehicle. Y ou will not exceed the tire’s load carrying capacity if you adhere to the loadi.
6. If your vehicle will be towing a trailer , load from your trailer will be transferred to your vehicle. Consult this manual to determine how this reduces the available cargo and luggage load capacity of your vehicle.
234 ST ARTING AND OPERA TING.
W ARNING! Overloading of your tires is dangerous. Overloading can cause tire failure, affect vehicle handling, and increase your stopping distance. Use tires of the recommended load capacity for your vehicle.
2. Economy— Improper inflation pr essures can cause uneven wear patterns to develop across the tir e tread. These abnormal wear patterns will reduce tr ead life resulting in a need for earlier tire r eplacement. Under inflation, also increases tire r olling resistance and r esults in higher fuel consump- tion.
CAUTION! After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure, al- ways reinstall the valve stem cap (if equipped). This will prevent moisture and dirt from entering the valve stem, which could damage the valve stem. Inflation pressur es specified on the placard ar e always “cold tire inflation pr essure.
W ARNING! High speed driving with your vehicle under maxi- mum load is dangerous. The added strain on your tires could cause them to fail. Y ou could have a serious accident. Don’t drive a vehicle loaded to the maximum capacity at continuous speeds above 75 mph (120 km/h).
CAUTION! Prolonged use of limited use spare, or an incorrect tire size on either front wheel, may damage transaxle differential and result in loss of vehicle mobility . Do not install a wheel cover or attempt to mount a conventional tire on the compact spar e wheel, since the wheel is designed specifically for the compact spare.
W ARNING! Prolonged use of limited use spare, or incorrect tire size of front wheel, may damage the transaxle dif- ferential and result in loss of vehicle mobility and could result in loss of vehicle control.
Life of Tire The service life of a tire is dependent upon varying factors including but not limited to: • Driving style • T ire pressur e • Distance driven W ARNING! T ires and spare tire should be replaced after six years, regardless of the remaining tread.
W ARNING! • Do not use a tire, wheel size or rating other than that specified for your vehicle. Some combina- tions of unapproved tires and wheels may change suspension dimensions and performance charac- teristics, resulting in changes to steering, han- dling, and braking of your vehicle.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) — IF EQUIPPED Base Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Operation – If Equipped This is the T ire Pressur e Monitoring System warn- ing indicator located in the instrument cluster .
sufficiently low enough to turn ON the “T ire Pr essure Monitoring Light”. Driving the vehicle may cause the tire pressur e to rise to approximately 30 psi (207 kPa), but the “T ire Pressur e Monitoring Light” will still be ON.
NOTE: A low spare tire will not cause the T ire Pr essure Monitoring T elltale Lamp to illuminate or the chime to sound. Should a low tire condition occur on any of the four active road tir e(s), you .
If the ignition key is cycled, this sequence will repeat, providing the system fault still exists. If the system fault no longer exists, the T ire Pressur e Monitoring T elltale Light will no longer flash, and the ⬙ CHECK TPM SYS- TEM ⬙ text message will no longer display .
CAUTION! The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable system operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement equip- ment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style.

Operation is subject to the following conditions: • This device may not cause harmful interference. • This device must accept any interference r eceived, including interference that may cause undesir ed op- eration.
Snow tires generally have lower speed ratings than what was originally equipped with your vehicle and should not be operated at sustained speeds over 75 mph (120 km/h). Tire Rotation Recommendations T ires on the front and r ear axles of vehicles operate at differ ent loads and perform differ ent steering, driving and braking functions.
FUEL REQUIREMENTS 2.4L and 2.7L ENGINES Y our vehicle is designed to meet all emis- sion regulations and pr ovide excellent fuel economy when using high quality regular unleaded gasoline with an octane rating of 87. The use of premium gasoline is not recommended.
Reformulated Gasoline Many areas of the country r equire the use of cleaner burning gasoline referr ed to as “Reformulated Gasoline”. Reformulated gasolines contain oxygenates, and are spe- cifically blended to reduce vehicle emissions and im- prove air quality .
MMT In Gasoline MMT is a manganese containing metallic additive that is blended into some gasoline to increase the octane num- ber . Gasolines blended with MMT offer no performance advantage beyond gasolines of the same octane number without MMT .
Fuel system damage or vehicle performance problems resulting fr om the use of such fuels or additives is not the responsibility of the manufactur er . NOTE: Intentional tampering with emissions control systems can result in civil penalties being assessed against you.
CAUTION! Only vehicles with the E-85 fuel filler door label can operate on E-85. ETHANOL FUEL (E-85) E-85 is a mixture of appr oximately 85% fuel ethanol and 15% unleaded gasoline. W ARNING! Ethanol vapors are extremely flammable and could cause serious personal injury .
Selection Of Engine Oil For Flexible Fuel V ehicles (E-85) and Gasoline V ehicles Whether operating the vehicle on an E-85 ethanol fuel or unleaded gasoline the engine oil requir ements are the same. Refer to “Engine Oil Selection in the “Maintenance Procedur es” section of this manual for the proper quality and viscosity engine oil.
ADDING FUEL Fuel Filler Cap (Gas Cap) The gas cap is behind the fuel filler door , on the left rear quarter panel of the vehicle. If the gas cap is lost or damaged, be sure the r eplacement cap is for use with this vehicle. After removing the gas cap, place the gas cap tether cable over a hook on the inside of the fuel door .
CAUTION! Damage to the fuel system or emission control system could result from using an improper fuel tank filler tube cap (gas cap). A poorly fitting cap could let impurities into the fuel system. CAUTION! A poorly fitting gas cap may cause the Malfunction Indicator Light to turn on.
NOTE: T ighten the gas cap about 1/4 turn until you hear one click. This is an indication that cap is properly tightened. If the gas cap is not tighten properly , the Malfunction Indicator Light will come on. Be sure the gas cap is tightened every time the vehicle is refueled.
• Gross Axle W eight Rating (GA WR) rear • V ehicle Identification Number (VIN) • T ype of V ehicle • Month Day and Hour of Manufacture (MDH) The bar code allows a computer scanner to read the V ehicle Identification Number (VIN). Gross V ehicle Weight Rating (GVWR) The GVWR is the total allowable weight of your vehicle.
Overloading can cause potential safety hazards and shorten useful service life. Heavier axles or suspension components do not necessarily increase the vehicle’s GVWR. Loading T o load your vehicle properly , first figure out its empty weight, axle by axle and side by side.
TRAILER TOWING In this section you will find safety tips and information on limits to the type of towing you can reasonably do with your vehicle. Before towing a trailer car efully re- view this information to tow your load as efficiently and safely as possible.
Gross Combination W eight Rating (GCWR) The gross combination weight rating (GCWR) is the total permissible weight of your vehicle and trailer when weighed in combination. (Note that GCWR ratings in- clude a 150 lbs (68 kg) allowance for the presence of a driver).
T railer Hitch Classification The following chart provides the industry standar d for the maximum trailer weight a given trailer hitch class can tow and should be used to assist you in selecting the correct trailer hitch for your intended towing condition.
CAUTION! T owing a trailer with a larger than recommended frontal area could cause the engine to overheat or cause severe engine damage under extreme condi- tions. T railer and T ongue Weight Always load a trailer with 60% to 65% of the weight in the front of the trailer .
must be considered as part of the total load on your vehicle. Refer to the T ire and Loading Information plac- ard in the T ire Safety Information Section of this manual for the maximum combined weight of occupants and cargo for your vehicle. CAUTION! Incorrect tongue weight could result in increased yaw or vehicle instability .
W ARNING! Improper towing can lead to an injury accident. Follow these guidelines to make your trailer towing as safe as possible: Make certain that the load is secured in the trailer and will not shift during travel. When trailering cargo that is not fully secured, dynamic load shifts can occur that may be difficult for the driver to control.
− Proper tir e inflation pressur es are essential to the safe and satisfactory operation of your vehicle. Refer to the T ires–General Information section of this manual on T ire Pressur es for proper tire inflation pr ocedures. − Also, check the trailer tires for pr oper tire inflation pressur es before trailer usage.
W ARNING! Do not connect trailer brakes to your vehicle’s hy- draulic brake lines. It can overload your brake sys- tem and cause it to fail. Y ou might not have brakes when you need them and could have an accident. T owing any trailer will increase your stopping dis- tance.
T owing Tips Before setting out on a trip, practice turning, stopping and backing the trailer in an area away fr om heavy traffic.
