  • Page 18: Supplemental Restraint System (Srs) - Air Bags

    GETTING STARTED A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection. Inspect the belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. Damaged parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system. Seat belt assemblies must be replaced after a collision if they have been damaged (bent retractor, torn webbing, etc.).

  • Page 19: Child Restraints

    GETTING STARTED 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.
  • Page 20 GETTING STARTED • You may use the LATCH anchorage system until the combined weight of the child and the child restraint is 65 lbs (29.5 kg). Use the seat belt and tether anchor instead of the LATCH system once the combined weight is more than 65 lbs (29.5 kg).
  • Page 21 GETTING STARTED Installing The Child Restraint Using The LATCH Lower Anchors NOTE: Never “share” a LATCH anchorage with two or more child restraints. 1. Loosen the adjusters on the lower straps and on the tether strap of the child seat so that you can more easily attach the hooks or connectors to the vehicle anchorages.
  • Page 22 GETTING STARTED 5. Try to pull the webbing out of the retractor. If it is locked, you should not be able to pull out any webbing. If the retractor is not locked, repeat the last step. 6. Finally, pull up on any extra webbing to tighten the lap portion around the child restraint while you push the child restraint rearward and downward into the vehicle seat.

  • Page 23: Front Seats

Then, using body pres- sure, move forward and backward on the seat to be sure that the seat adjust- ers have latched.

  • Page 26: Rear Seats

    GETTING STARTED WARNING! • Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The sudden movement of the seat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not be properly adjusted, and you could be severely injured or killed. Only adjust a seat while the vehicle is parked.

  • Page 30: Operating Your Vehicle

    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.

  • Page 31: Headlight Switch

    OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE 100 to 300 miles (161 to 483 km): • Depress the accelerator pedal slowly and not more than halfway to avoid rapid acceleration in lower gears (1st to 3rd gears). • Avoid aggressive braking. • Drive with the engine speed less than 5,000 RPM. •...

  • Page 32: Turn Signal/Wiper/Washer/High Beam Lever

    OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE Automatic High Beams The Automatic High Beams system provides increased forward lighting at night by automating high beam control through the use of a digital camera mounted on the inside rearview mirror. This camera detects vehicle specific light and automatically switches from high beams to low beams until the approaching vehicle is out of view.
  • Page 33 OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE High Beam Operation • Push the lever forward to activate the high beams. Pull the lever toward you for flash to pass. NOTE: For safe driving, turn off high beams when oncoming traffic is present to prevent headlight glare and as a courtesy to other motorists.

Each subsequent tap of the button results in an increase of 1 km/h. • If the button is continually pressed, the set speed will continue to increase until the button is released, then the new set speed will be established.

  • Page 36: Adaptive Cruise Control (Acc)

    OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) If your vehicle is equipped with adaptive cruise control the controls operate ex- actly the same as the normal (fixed speed) cruise control with one difference. You can set a specified distance you would like to maintain between you and the vehicle in front of you.
  • Page 37 OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE ACC Operation At Stop If the ACC system brings your vehicle to a standstill while following a target vehicle, if the target vehicle starts moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, your vehicle will resume motion without the need for any driver action. If the target vehicle does not start moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, the ACC with Stop system will cancel and the brakes will ramp-out.

  • Page 38: Forward Collision Warning (Fcw) With Mitigation

    OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING (FCW) WITH MITIGATION The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system with mitigation provides the driver with audible warnings, visual warnings within the EVIC, and may apply a brake jerk to warn the driver when it detects a potential frontal collision. The warnings and limited braking are intended to provide the driver with enough time to react, avoid or mitigate the potential collision.
  • Page 39 OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting. The far setting provides warnings for potential collisions more distant in front of the vehicle, allowing the driver to have the most reaction time to avoid a collision. This setting is designed to provide early warnings per NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration) recommendations.

  • Page 40: Electronic Shifter

    OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE ELECTRONIC SHIFTER Your vehicle is equipped with a fuel efficient 8 speed transmission.
