■

When installing in the sec-
ond center seat (8-seat
models)

There are no LATCH anchors
behind the seceond center seat.
However, the inboard LATCH
anchors of the outboard seats,
which are 18.6 in. (473 mm)
apart, can be used if the child
restraint system manufacturer’s
instructions permit use of those

anchors with the anchor spacing
stated.
Child restraint systems with rigid
lower attachments cannot be
installed in the center seat. This
type of child restraint system
can only be installed in the out-
board seat.

■

Laws and regulations pertain-

ing to anchors

The LATCH system conforms to

FMVSS225 or CMVSS210.2.

Child restraint systems conforming

to FMVSS213 or CMVSS213 speci-

fications can be used.

This vehicle is designed to conform

to SAE J1819.

WARNING

■

When installing a child

restraint system

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in

death or serious injury.

●

When using the LATCH

anchors, be sure that there are

no foreign objects around the

WARNING

●

Never attach two child restraint

system attachments to the

same anchor. In a collision, one

anchor may not be strong

enough to hold two child

restraint system attachments

and may break.

If the LATCH anchors are already

in use, use the seat belt to install

a child restraint system in the cen-

ter seat.

●

When securing some types of

child restraint systems in rear

seats, it may not be possible to

properly use the seat belts in

positions next to the child

restraint without interfering with

it or affecting seat belt effective-

ness. Be sure your seat belt fits

snugly across your shoulder

and low on your hips. If it does

not, or if it interferes with the

child restraint, move to a differ-

ent position. Failure to do so

may result in death or serious

injury.

●

If the seat is adjusted, reconfirm

the security of the child restraint

system.

WARNING

■

When installing a child

Observe the following precau-

tions.

Failure to do so may result in

death or serious injury.

●

Firmly attach the top tether

When installing a child restraint

system in the center rear seat,

adjust both seatbacks at the

same angle. Otherwise, the

child restraint system cannot be

securely restrained and this

may cause death or serious

injuries in the event of sudden

braking, sudden swerving or an

accident.

●

When installing the child

restraint system with the head

restraint being raised, after the

head restraint has been raised

and then the anchor bracket has

been fixed, do not lower the

head restraint.

When the engine switch is
turned to ON, the red indicator
light comes on for 2 seconds
then turns off. Afterward, the
green indicator light comes on,
indicating that the service is

Automatic Collision Notifi-
cation

In case of either airbag deploy-
ment or severe rear-end colli-
sion, the system is designed to

automatically call the response
center. The responding agent
receives the vehicle’s location
and attempts to speak with the
vehicle occupants to assess the
level of emergency. If the occu-
pants are unable to communi-
cate, the agent automatically
treats the call as an emergency,
contacts the nearest emer-
gency services provider to
describe the situation, and
requests that assistance be sent
to the location.

■

Stolen Vehicle Location

If your vehicle is stolen, Safety
Connect can work with local
authorities to assist them in
locating and recovering the
vehicle. After filing a police
report, call the Customer Experi-
ence Center at 1-800-331-4331
in the United States,
1-877-855-8377 in Puerto Rico
or 1-888-869-6828 in Canada,
and follow the prompts for
Safety Connect to initiate this
service.
In addition to assisting law
enforcement with recovery of a
stolen vehicle, Safety-Con-
nect-equipped vehicle location
data may, under certain circum-
stances, be shared with third
parties to locate your vehicle.

Exposure to radio fre-
quency signals

The Safety Connect system
installed in your vehicle is a
low-power radio transmitter and
receiver. It receives and also
sends out radio frequency (RF)
signals.
In August 1996, the Federal
Communications Commission
(FCC) adopted RF exposure
guidelines with safety levels for
mobile wireless phones. Those
guidelines are consistent with
the safety standards previously
set by the following U.S. and
international standards bodies.



ANSI (American National
Standards Institute) C95.1
[1992]



NCRP (National Council on
Radiation Protection and
Measurement) Report 86
[1986]



ICNIRP (International Com-
mission on Non-Ionizing Radi-
ation Protection) [1996]

Those standards were based on
comprehensive and periodic
evaluations of the relevant sci-
entific literature. Over 120 scien-
tists, engineers, and physicians
from universities, and govern-
ment health agencies and
industries reviewed the avail-
able body of research to

The design of Safety Connect
complies with the FCC guide-
lines in addition to those stan-
dards.

■

Conditions that may cause the

system to malfunction

●

If the grip portion of the key is in

contact with a metallic object

●

If the key is in close proximity to or

touching a key registered to the

security system (key with a built-in

transponder chip) of another vehi-

cle

Engine immobilizer

system

The vehicle’s keys have
built-in transponder chips
that prevent the engine from
starting if a key has not
been previously registered
in the vehicle’s on-board
computer.

Never leave the keys inside
the vehicle when you leave
the vehicle.

This system is designed to
help prevent vehicle theft
but does not guarantee
absolute security against all
vehicle thefts.
