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.
GETTING STARTED 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. • All three second-row passenger seating positions have lower anchors that are capable of accommodating LATCH-compatible child seats. • Rigid fixed lower attachments can only be used in the outboard seating positions.
GETTING STARTED 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.

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. Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no longer resting against your chest. In a collision, you could slide under the seat belt and be severely injured or killed.

GETTING STARTED WARNING! • • • • Be certain that the seatback is locked securely into position. Otherwise, the seat will not provide the proper stability for child seats and/or passengers. An improperly latched seat could cause you and others to be severely injured or killed.

Spare Tire Location • The spare tire is stowed underneath the rear of the vehicle and is held in place by means of a cable winch mechanism. Preparations For Jacking 1. Park the vehicle on a firm, level surface as far from the edge of the roadway as possible. Avoid icy or slippery areas. 2. Turn on the Hazard Warning flashers. 3.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES 6. Block both the front and rear of the wheel diagonally opposite of the jacking position. For example, if changing the right front tire, block the left rear wheel. NOTE: Passengers should not remain in the vehicle when the vehicle is being jacked. Spare Tire Removal NOTE: On seven-passenger models, fold the third-row passenger seats flat. This will provide more space when accessing the jacking tools and when operating the winch mechanism. 1.

Turn the jack screw clockwise to firmly engage the jack saddle with the lift area of the sill flange. 4. Raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw clockwise with the jack handle. Raise the vehicle until the tire just clears the road surface and enough clearance is obtained to install the spare tire. Minimum tire lift provides maximum stability. 5. Remove the wheel nuts.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES 11. Place the deflated (flat) tire in the cargo area. Do not stow the deflated tire in the spare tire stowage location. Have the deflated (flat) tire repaired or replaced as soon as possible. 12. To stow the winch cable and retainer, fit the assembled jack-handle over the winch drive nut. Rotate the jack-handle assembly clockwise until you hear the winch mechanism click three times. It cannot be over tightened. 13. Stow the jack-handle and jack. 14.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES Vehicles Without Wheel Covers 1. Mount the road tire on the axle. 2. Install the remaining lug nuts with the cone shaped end of the nut toward the wheel.
