SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) — AIR BAGS
• This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for both the driver and right front passenger as a
supplement to the seat belt restraint system. The Advanced Front Air Bags will not deploy in
every type of collision.
• Advanced FrontAir Bags are designed to provide additional protection by supplementing the
seat belts in certain frontal collisions depending on several factors, including the severity and
type of collision. Advanced Front Air Bags are not expected to reduce the risk of injury in rear,
side, or rollover collisions.
• This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags to provide enhanced
protection to help protect an occupant during a side impact.
• If the Air Bag Warning Light
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).
• 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 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 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
SEAT BELT
• Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and using a seat belt properly.
• Position the lap belt across your thighs, below your abdomen. To remove slack in the lap
portion, pull up a bit on the shoulder belt. To loosen the lap belt if it is too tight, tilt the latch
plate and pull on the lap belt. A snug belt reduces the risk of sliding under the belt in a collision.
• Position the shoulder belt on your chest so that it is comfortable and not resting on your neck.
The retractor will withdraw any slack in the belt.
• A shoulder belt placed behind you will not protect you from injury during a collision. You are
more likely to hit your head in a collision if you do not wear your shoulder belt. The lap and
shoulder belt are meant to be used together.
• A belt that is too loose will not protect you properly. In a sudden stop you could move too far
forward, increasing the possibility of injury. Wear your seat belt snugly.
• 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.).
• The seat belts for both front seating positions are equipped with pretensioning devices that
are designed to remove slack from the seat belt in the event of a collision.
• A deployed pretensioner or a deployed air bag must be replaced immediately.
WARNING!
In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are not buckled
up properly. You 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.
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.
NOTE:
• For additional information, refer to www.seatcheck.org or call 1–866–SEATCHECK.
• Canadian residents, should refer to Transport Canada’s website for additional information.
• http://www.tc.gc.ca/eng/roadsafety/safedrivers-childsafety-index-53.htm

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.
• The two rear seating positions have lower anchorages that are capable of accommodating
LATCH-compatible child seats having flexible, webbing mounted lower attachments or fixed
lower attachments.
• 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 symbol
directly above the anchorages and are just
visible when you lean into the rear seat to
install the child restraint.
• The top tether strap anchorages are located
in the trunk behind the rear seatback. The
access ports to the top tether anchorages
are directly behind the seat headrests 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.
• If lowered, raise the convertible top.
NOTE:
The convertible top must be in the UP position to access the tether anchor.
• Open the access port cover behind the seat where you are placing the child restraint.
• Push the tether strap and hook through the
access port and down into the trunk.
located on the seatback

GETTING STARTED
NOTE:
Route the tether strap to provide the most direct path from the child seat to the anchor.
•
From inside the trunk, open the access cover on the carpet covering the back of the seat and
attach the tether strap hook to the anchor.
•
Tighten all three straps as you push the child
restraint rearward and downward into the seat.
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, extractall 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.
• If lowered, raise the convertible top.
NOTE:
The convertible top must be in the UP position to access the tether anchor.
Open the access port cover behind the seat where you are placing the child restraint. The access
•
ports to the top tether anchorages are directly behind the seat headrests under a plastic cover.
• Push the tether strap and hook through the access port and down into the trunk.
13
GETTING STARTED
NOTE:
Route the tether strap to provide the most direct path from the child seat to the anchor.
• From inside the trunk, open the access cover on the carpet covering the back of the seat and
attach the tether strap hook to the anchor.
• 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 severe injury or death to infants in
this position.
• Improperinstallation 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.

support as desired.
15
GETTING STARTED
Easy Entry Lever
• The Easy Entry lever is located on the upper seat belt anchor cover.
• On manual passenger seats, pulling the lever upward will move the seat and seatback
forward. When returning the seat to its normal position, the memory feature restores
the seat position and seatback recline position to their current settings.
• On power seats, pulling the lever upward will
move the seatback forward.
CAUTION!
Do not place any article under a power seat or impede its ability to move as it may cause
damage to the seat controls. Seat travel may become limited if movement is stopped by an
obstruction in the seat’s path.
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.
Use the recliner only when the vehicle is parked.

tilt/telescoping adjustment locked could cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle. Failure
to follow this warning may result in you and others being severely injured or killed.
18
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.

Emergency Bypass Mode (To Raise The Top Only)
• This procedure is only to be used to raise the top when the top cannot be returned to the UP
(raised) position by pressing the POWER TOP switch or is in a position in which the vehicle
cannot be driven. Please follow these emergency bypass instructions to return the top to the
UP (raised) position.

the switch in the Top Up position for a minimum of two minutes.
• If damage starts to occur while in the Emergency Bypass Mode, immediately release the

OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
Wind Stop (if equipped)
• The Wind Stop installs in the backseat area of the vehicle. The Wind Stop will not interfere
with power top operation. Therefore, it can remain installed when the top is up. However, when
not in use, the Wind Stop folds to allow for convenient storage underneath the cargo shield in
the trunk.
CAUTION!
• Do not place objects on the cargo shield. Objects placed on the cargo shield will interfere
with the top during lowering and cause extensive damage.
• Once this procedure has been completed and the top is in the UP (raised) position, see
your authorized dealer.
• DO NOT exceed 40 mph (64 km/h).
• Using the Emergency Bypass Mode could potentially damage the convertible top and
should only be used to raise the power top to the UP (raised) position when the normal top
operation is not functioning.
WIND BUFFETING
• Wind buffeting can be described as a helicopter-type percussion sound. If buffeting occurs
with the rear windows open, adjust the front and rear windows together.
• If buffeting occurs with the sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening, or adjust any window.
This will minimize buffeting.
