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 2-17.
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.
The sunroof is also equipped with a sunshade which
you can pull forward to block sun rays.
2-46

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
In addition to the following features, your vehicle may
also have features that can be programmed through
the Driver Information Center (DIC). SeeDIC Vehicle
Customization on page 3-63for more information.
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, both the driver’s and
passenger’s outside mirrors, and the throttle and
brake pedals for vehicles with the adjustable throttle
and brake pedal feature. The settings for these features
can be saved for up to two drivers.
2-47

Diversity Antenna System
Your AM-FM antennas are located in the rear side
windows. Be sure that the inside surfaces of the rear
side windows are not scratched and that the lines on the
glass are not damaged. If the inside surfaces are
damaged, they could interfere with radio reception.
Notice:Using a razor blade or sharp object to clear
the inside of the windshield or rear window may
affect radio reception or damage the rear window
defogger. Repairs would not be covered by your
warranty. Do not clear the inside windshield or rear
window with sharp objects.
Notice:Do not apply aftermarket glass tinting
with metallic lm. The metallic lm in some tinting
materials will interfere with or distort the incoming
radio reception. Any damage caused to your
antenna due to metallic tinting materials will not
be covered by your warranty.
If you choose to add an aftermarket cellular telephone
to your vehicle, and the antenna needs to be attached to
the glass, be sure that you do not damage the grid
lines for the AM-FM antennas or place the cellular
telephone antenna over the grid lines.
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.
If your vehicle has a sunroof, 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
the XM™ Satellite Radio antenna is not obstructed.
Chime Level Adjustment
The radio is used to adjust the vehicle’s chime level.
To change the volume level of the chime, press and hold
pushbutton 6 with the ignition on and the radio power
off. The 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 volume 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.
