Gas props support the liftgate in the open
position. However, because the gas pressure
drops with temperature, it may be necessary to
assist the props when opening the liftgate in
cold weather.
OCCUPANT RESTRAINTS
Some of the most important safety features in
your vehicle are the restraint systems:
•
Three-point lap and shoulder belts for the
driver and all passengers
•
Advanced Front Air Bags for driver and front
passenger
•
Supplemental Active Head Restraints (AHR)
located on top of the front seats (integrated
into the head restraint)
•
Supplemental Driver Side Knee Air Bag
•
Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Cur-
tains (SABIC) for the driver and passengers
seated next to a window
•
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air
Bags (SAB)
•
An energy-absorbing steering column and
steering wheel
•
Knee bolsters/blockers for front seat occupant
•
Front seat belts incorporate pretensioners
that may enhance occupant protection by
managing occupant energy during an impact
event
•
All seat belt systems (except the driver’s and
front passenger) include Automatic Locking
Retractors (ALRs), which lock the seat belt
webbing into position by extending the belt all
the way out and then adjusting the belt to the
desired length to restrain a child seat or
secure a large item in a seat — if equipped
Please pay close attention to the information in
this section. It tells you how to use your restraint
system properly, to keep you and your passen-
gers as safe as possible.
If you will be carrying children too small for
adult-sized seat belts, the seat belts or the ISO-
FIX feature also can be used to hold infant and
child restraint systems. Refer to ISOFIX — Child
Seat Anchorage System for more information.
NOTE:
The Advanced Front Air Bags have a multi-
stage inflator design. This allows the air bag
to have different rates of inflation based on
several factors, including the severity and
type of collision.
Here are some simple steps you can take to
minimize the risk of harm from a deploying air
bag:
1. Children 12 years old and under should
always ride buckled up in a rear seat.
WARNING!
Infants in rear facing child restraints should
never ride in the front seat of a vehicle with a
passenger Advanced Front Air Bag. An air
bag deployment can cause severe injury or
death to infants in that position.
Children that are not big enough to wear the
vehicle seat belt properly (see section on Child
Restraints) should be secured in the rear seat in
child restraints or belt-positioning booster seats.
