NOTICE

• 

It is permissible to add 3 psi to the standard tire pressure specification if colder 

temperatures are expected soon.
Tires typically lose 1psi (7kPa) for every 12°F temperature drop. If extreme 

temperature variations are expected, recheck your tire pressure as necessary to 

keep them properly inflated.

• 

Tire inflation pressures will vary with changes in elevation. If driving in areas of 

higher or lower elevation, be sure to check and adjust for proper tire inflation.

 CAUTION

• 

When replacing tires, use the same size originally supplied with the vehicle.
Using tires of a different size can damage the related parts or not work properly.

• 

When replacing tires, ALWAYS use the same size, type, construction and tread 

pattern supplied with the vehicle for all tires.

Recommended SAE Viscosity Number

NOTICE

• 

Always be sure to clean the area around any filler plug, drain plug, or dipstick 

before checking or draining any lubricant. This is especially important in dusty or 

sandy areas and when the vehicle is used on unpaved roads. Cleaning the plug 

and dipstick areas will prevent dirt and grit from entering the engine and other 

mechanisms that could be damaged. 

• 

Never add any additives to the engine oil. Engine oil additives can change the 

properties of engine oil and may cause serious engine failure.

Engine oil viscosity (thickness) has an effect on fuel economy and cold weather 

operating (engine start and engine oil flowability). Lower viscosity engine oils can 

provide better fuel economy and cold weather performance, however, higher viscosity 

engine oils are required for satisfactory lubrication in hot weather.
Using oils of any viscosity other than those recommended could result in engine 

damage.
When choosing an oil, consider the range of temperature your vehicle will be operated 

in before the next oil change. Proceed to select the recommended oil viscosity from 

the chart.

Additionally, this chapter explains how to properly restrain infants and children in your vehicle.

Seats & Safety System

3-2

You will find many safety precautions 

and recommendations throughout this 

section, and throughout this manual. 

The safety precautions in this section are 

among the most important.

Always Wear Your Seat Belt

A seat belt is your best protection in all 

types of accidents. Airbags are designed 

to supplement seat belts, not replace 

them. So even though your vehicle is 

equipped with airbags, ALWAYS make 

sure you and your passengers wear your 

seat belts, and wear them properly.

Restrain All Children

All children under age 13 should ride 

in your vehicle properly restrained in a 

rear seat, not the front seat. Infants and 

small children should be restrained in 

an appropriate child restraint. Larger 

children should use a booster seat with 

the lap/shoulder belt until they can use 

the seat belt properly without a booster 

seat.

Airbag Hazards

While airbags can save lives, they can 

also cause serious or fatal injuries to 

occupants who sit too close to them, or 

who are not properly restrained. Infants, 

young children, and shorter adults are at 

the greatest risk of being injured by an 

inflating airbag. Follow all instructions 

and warnings in this manual.

Driver Distraction

Driver distraction presents a serious and 

potentially deadly danger, especially for 

inexperienced drivers. Safety should be 

the first concern when behind the wheel, 

and drivers need to be aware of the wide 

array of potential distractions, such as 

drowsiness, reaching for objects, eating, 

personal grooming, other passengers, 

and using cellular phones.

Drivers can become distracted when 

they take their eyes and attention off 

the road or their hands off the wheel to 

focus on activities other than driving. To 

reduce your risk of distraction or getting 

into an accident:

• 

ALWAYS set up your mobile devices 

(for example, MP3 players, phones, 

navigation units, etc.) when your 

vehicle is parked or safely stopped.

• 

ONLY use your mobile device when 

allowed by laws and when conditions 

permit safe use. NEVER text or email 

while driving. Most states have laws 

prohibiting drivers from texting. Some 

states and cities also prohibit drivers 

from using handheld phones.

• 

NEVER let the use of a mobile device 

distract you from driving. You have a 

responsibility to your passengers and 

others on the road to always drive 

safely, with your hands on the wheel 

as well as your eyes and attention on 

the road.

Control Your Speed

Excessive speed is a major factor in crash 

injuries and deaths. Generally, the higher 

the speed, the greater the risk, but 

serious injuries can also occur at lower 

speeds. Never drive faster than is safe 

for current conditions, regardless of the 

maximum speed posted.

Keep Your Vehicle in Safe 

Condition

Having a tire blowout or a mechanical 

failure can be extremely hazardous. To 

reduce the possibility of such problems, 

check your tire pressures and condition 

frequently, and perform all regularly 

scheduled maintenance.

Safety Precautions

Adjusting the seats so that you are sitting 

in a safe, comfortable position plays an 

important role in driver and passenger 

safety together with the seat belts and 

airbags in an accident.

 WARNING

Do not use a cushion that reduces 

friction between the seat and the 

passenger. The passenger’s hips may 

slide under the lap portion of the seat 

belt during an accident or a sudden 

stop. Serious or fatal internal injuries 

could result because the seat belt 

cannot operate properly.

Airbags

You can take steps to reduce the risk 

of being injured by an inflating airbag. 

Sitting too close to an airbag greatly 

increases the risk of injury in the event 

the airbag inflates.
The National Highway Traffic Safety 

Administration (NHTSA) recommends 

that drivers allow at least 10 inches (25 

cm) between the center of the steering 

wheel and their chest.

 WARNING

To reduce the risk of serious injury or 

death from an inflating airbag, take the 

following precautions:

• 

Adjust the driver’s seat as far to the 

rear as possible while maintaining 

the ability to maintain full control of 

the vehicle.

• 

Adjust the front passenger seat as far 

to the rear as possible.

• 

Hold the steering wheel by the rim 

with your hands at the 9 o’clock and 

3 o’clock positions to minimize the 

risk of injuries to your hands and 

arms.

• 

NEVER place anything or anyone 

between the steering wheel and the 

airbag.

• 

Do not allow the front passenger to 

place feet or legs on the dashboard 

to minimize the risk of leg injuries.

Seat belts

Always fasten your seat belt before 

starting any trip.
At all times, passengers should sit 

upright and be properly restrained. 

Infants and small children must be 

restrained in appropriate child restraint 

systems. Adults and children who 

have outgrown a booster seat must be 

restrained using the seat belts.

 WARNING

Take the following precautions when 

adjusting your seat belt:

• 

NEVER use one seat belt for more 

than one occupant.

• 

Always position the seatback upright 

with the lap portion of the seat belt 

snug and low across the hips.

• 

NEVER allow children or small infants 

to ride on a passenger’s lap.

• 

Do not route the seat belt across your 

neck, across sharp edges, or reroute 

the shoulder strap away from your 

body.

• 

Do not allow the seat belt to become 

caught or jammed.

03

3-5

Front Seats

 WARNING

Take the following precautions when 

adjusting your seat:

• 

NEVER attempt to adjust the seat 

while the vehicle is moving. The seat 

could respond with unexpected 

movement and may cause loss 

of vehicle control resulting in an 

accident.

• 

Do not place anything under the 

front seats. Loose objects in the 

driver’s foot area could interfere 

with the operation of the foot pedals, 

causing an accident.

• 

Do not allow anything to interfere 

with the normal position and proper 

locking of the seatback.

• 

Do not place a cigarette lighter on 

the floor or seat. When you operate 

the seat, gas may exit out of the 

lighter causing a fire.

• 

Use extreme caution when picking 

up small objects trapped under the 

seats or between the seat and the 

center console. Your hands might be 

cut or injured by the sharp edges of 

the seat mechanism.

• 

If there are occupants in the rear 

seats, be careful while adjusting the 

front seat position.

• 

Make sure that the seat is locked in 

place after the adjustment. If not, 

the seat might move unexpectedly 

resulting in an accident.

 CAUTION

To prevent injury:

• 

Do not adjust your seat while 

wearing your seat belt. Moving the 

seat cushion forward may cause 

strong pressure on your abdomen.

• 

Do not allow your hands or fingers to 

get caught in the seat mechanisms 

while the seat is moving.

Manual adjustment (if equipped)

The front seat can be adjusted by using 

the levers located on the outside of 

the seat cushion. Before driving, adjust 

the seat to the proper position so that 

you can easily control the steering 

wheel, foot pedals and controls on the 

instrument panel.

OCN7030002

Forward and rearward adjustment

To move the seat forward or rearward:
1.  Pull up the seat slide adjustment lever 

and hold it.

2.  Slide the seat to the position you 

desire.

3.  Release the lever and make sure the 

seat is locked in place. Move forward 

and rearward without using the lever. 

If the seat moves, it is not locked 

properly.

Seats & Safety System

OCN7030003

Seatback angle

To recline the seatback:
1.  Lean forward slightly and lift up the 

seatback lever.

2.  Carefully lean back on the seat and 

adjust the seatback to the position 

you desire.

3.  Release the lever and make sure the 

seatback is locked in place. (The lever 

MUST return to its original position for 

the seatback to lock.)

Reclining seatback

Sitting in a reclined position when the 

vehicle is in motion can be dangerous. 

Even when buckled up, the protection 

of your restraint system (seat belts and 

airbags) is greatly reduced by reclining 

your seatback.

 WARNING

NEVER ride with a reclined seatback 

when the vehicle is moving.
Riding with a reclined seatback 

increases your chance of serious or fatal 

injuries in the event of a collision or 

sudden stop.
Drivers and passengers should ALWAYS 

sit well back in their seats, properly 

belted, and with the seatbacks upright.

Seat belts must be snug against your 

hips and chest to work properly. When 

the seatback is reclined, the shoulder 

belt cannot do its job because it will not 

be snug against your chest. Instead, 

it will be in front of you. During an 

accident, you could be thrown into the 

seat belt, causing neck or other injuries.
The more the seatback is reclined, 

the greater chance the passenger’s 

hips will slide under the lap belt or the 

passenger’s neck will strike the shoulder

Seats & Safety System

3-8

Reclining seatback 

Sitting in a reclined position when the 

vehicle is in motion can be dangerous. 

Even when buckled up, the protection 

of your restraint system (seat belts and 

airbags) is greatly reduced by reclining 

your seatback.

 WARNING

NEVER ride with a reclined seatback 

when the vehicle is moving. Riding 

with a reclined seatback increases your 

chance of serious or fatal injuries in 

the event of a collision or sudden stop. 

Driver and passengers should always 

sit well back in their seats with the 

seatbacks upright and should be belted 

properly. 

Seat belts must be snug against your hips 

and chest to work properly. When the 

seatback is reclined, the shoulder belt 

cannot do its job because it will not be 

snug against your chest. Instead, it will 

be in front of you. During an accident, 

you could be thrown into the seat belt, 

causing neck or other injuries. The more 

the seatback is reclined, the greater 

chance the passenger’s hips will slide 

under the lap belt or the passenger’s 

neck will strike the shoulder belt.

Rear Seats

Folding the rear seat (if equipped)

The rear seatbacks can be folded to 

facilitate carrying long items or to 

increase the luggage capacity of the 

vehicle.

 WARNING

• 

Never allow passengers to sit on top 

of the folded down seatback while 

the vehicle is moving. This is not a 

proper seating position and no seat 

belts are available for use. This could 

result in serious injury or death in 

case of an accident or sudden stop.

• 

Objects carried on the folded down 

seatback should not extend higher 

than the top of the front seatbacks. 

This could allow cargo to slide 

forward and cause injury or damage 

during sudden stops.

To fold down the rear seatback:
1.  Set the front seatback to the upright 

position and if necessary, slide the 

front seat forward.

OCN7030019N

a folded to an upright position, hold the 

seatback and return it slowly. Ensure 

that the seatback is completely locked 

into its upright position by pushing on 

the top of the seatback. In an accident 

or sudden stop, an unlocked seatback 

could allow cargo to move forward with 

great force and enter the passenger 

compartment, which could result in 

serious injury or death.

 WARNING

Do not place objects in the rear seats, 

since they cannot be properly secured 

and may hit vehicle occupants in a 

collision causing serious injury or death.

 WARNING

Make sure the vehicle is off, the shift 

lever is in P (Park), and the parking 

brake is securely applied whenever 

loading or unloading cargo. Failure to 

take these steps may allow the vehicle 

to move if the shift lever is inadvertently 

moved to another position.

Head Restraints

The vehicle’s front and rear seats 

have adjustable head restraints. The 

head restraints provide comfort for 

passengers, but more importantly they 

are designed to help protect passengers 

from whiplash and other neck and spinal 

injuries during an accident, especially in 

a rear impact collision.

 WARNING

To help reduce the risk of serious 

injury or death in an accident, take the 

following precautions when adjusting 

your head restraints:

• 

Always properly adjust the head 

restraints for all passengers BEFORE 

starting the vehicle.

• 

NEVER let anyone ride in a seat 

with the head restraints removed or 

reversed.
