Section 2 Features and Controls
2-2

Cargo Tie Downs
Your vehicle may be
equipped with cargo tie
downs in the rear
cargo area that allow you
to strap cargo in and
keep it from moving inside
the vehicle.
When not using the tie downs, ip them down out of
the way.
Sunroof
Your vehicle may be equipped with a power sliding
sunroof. To open or close your sunroof, the ignition
needs to be on or RAP needs to be active. See
“Retained Accessory Power” underIgnition Positions on
page 2-18.
Press and release the rear side of the button located in
the front overhead console to express-open the glass
panel and sunshade. To stop the express-open motion,
press the front or rear of the button again. To close
the glass panel, press and hold the front of the button.
The glass will not be fully seated unless the button
is held until the glass stops moving. With the sunroof
closed, press the forward side of the button to open the
sunroof to the vent position.
2-44

The sunroof is also equipped with a sunshade which
you can pull forward to block sun rays.
If a hand, arm, or other object is blocking the sunroof
glass panel as it is closing, the glass panel will stop
at the obstruction. After the obstruction is removed, the
glass panel can be closed or opened.
Use care not to leave the sunroof open for long periods
of time as debris may collect in the tracks.
If the battery has been recharged, disconnected or is
not working, you may need to reprogram the sunroof. To
do this, start the vehicle and press the forward side of
the sunroof button until the glass panel moves to a fully
closed position. Release, and press again to move to
the vent position, which occurs when the sunroof is fully
tilted upward and the button is held for an additional
twenty seconds. This will reset the memory and enable
the sunroof to function properly.Vehicle Personalization
Memory Seat
If your vehicle has this
feature, the controls for
the memory function
are located on the
driver’s door.
These buttons are used to program and recall memory
settings for the driver’s seat, throttle and brake
pedals and both the driver’s and passenger’s outside
mirrors. The settings for these features can be saved for
up to two drivers.
2-45

XM™ Satellite Radio Antenna
System
The XM™ Satellite Radio antenna is located on the roof
of your vehicle. Keep this antenna clear of snow and
ice build up for clear radio reception.
The performance of the XM™ system may be affected if
the sunroof is open.
Loading items onto the roof of your vehicle can interfere
with the performance of the XM™ system. Make sure
that the XM™ satellite antenna is not obstructed.
Chime Level Adjustment
The radio is the vehicle chime producer. To change the
volume level, press and hold pushbutton 6 with the
ignition on and the radio power off. The chime volume
level will change from the normal level to loud, and
LOUD will appear on the radio display. To change back
to the default or normal setting, press and hold
pushbutton 6 again. The chime level will change from
the loud level to normal, and NORMAL will appear
on the radio display. Each time the chime volume is
changed, three chimes will sound as an example of the
new volume selected. Removing the radio and not
replacing it with a factory radio or chime module will
disable vehicle chimes.
