  • S A F E T Y R E M I N D E RYour vehicle is equipped with airbags. Airbags do not replace your seat belts; theyadd to the protection offered by seat belts. Airbags can help protect you in sometypes of collisions, but they do not provide protection in all collisions.Always make sure you and your passengers wear seat belts, and that young childrenare properly secured in a child seat or booster in the rear seat. Never place an infantseat in the front passenger’s seat as the force of a deploying airbag can seriouslyinjure an infant.

    F U E L R E Q U I R E M E N T• Only use unleaded gasoline of 91 octane or higher. • Some gasoline in North America contains MMT, a manganese-based fuel

    additive. Prolonged and consistent use of gasoline containing MMT candeteriorate your vehicle’s performance, fuel economy, and the emissioncontrol system. Always use MMT-free gasoline if available. Failures caused byuse of gasoline containing MMT may not be covered under warranty.
