resulting in serious injury or
even death. To help make
sure the airbag systems are
working properly after a
crash, have them inspected
and any necessary
replacements made as soon
as possible.
If an airbag inflates, you will
need to replace airbag system
parts. See your dealer for
service.
If the airbag readiness light
stays on after the vehicle is
started or comes on when you
are driving, the airbag system
may not work properly. Have
the vehicle serviced right
away. See Airbag Readiness
Light 0112.
Child Restraints
Older Children
Older children who have
outgrown booster seats
should wear the vehicle’s seat
belts. Refer to How to Wear
Seat Belts Properly 052.
The manufacturer instructions
that come with the booster
seat state the weight and
height limitations for that
booster. Use a booster seat
with a lap-shoulder belt until
the child passes the fit test
below:
.Sit all the way back on the
seat. Do the knees bend at
the seat edge? If yes,
continue. If no, return to the
booster seat.
.Buckle the lap-shoulder belt.
Does the shoulder belt rest
on the shoulder? If yes,
continue. If no, return to the
booster seat.
.Does the lap belt fit low and
snug on the hips, touching
the thighs? If yes, continue.
If no, return to the
booster seat.
.Can proper seat belt fit be
maintained for the length of
the trip? If yes, continue.
If no, return to the
booster seat.
Q: What is the proper way to wear seat belts?
A: An older child should wear a
lap-shoulder belt and get
the additional restraint a
shoulder belt can provide.
The shoulder belt should
not cross the face or neck.
The lap belt should fit

Power Outlet 110-Volt/
120-Volt Alternating
Current
If equipped with this power
outlet it can be used to plug in
electrical equipment that uses
a maximum limit of 150 watts.
The power outlet is on the
rear of the center console.
An indicator light on the outlet
turns on to show it is in use.
The light comes on when the
vehicle is on, equipment
requiring less than 150 watts
is plugged into the outlet, and
no system fault is detected.The indicator light does not
come on when the vehicle is
off or if the equipment is not
fully seated into the outlet.
If equipment is connected
using more than 150 watts or
a system fault is detected, a
protection circuit shuts off the
power supply and the
indicator light turns off. To
reset the circuit, unplug the
item and plug it back in or turn
the Retained Accessory
Power (RAP) off and then back
on. See Retained Accessory
Power (RAP)
0209. The power
restarts when equipment
using 150 watts or less is
plugged into the outlet and a
system fault is not detected.
The power outlet is not
designed for and may not
work properly, if the following
are plugged in:
.Equipment with high initial
peak wattage, such as
compressor-driven
refrigerators and electric
power tools
.Other equipment requiring
an extremely stable power
supply, such as
microcomputer-controlled
electric blankets and touch
sensor lamps
.Medical equipment

If equipped and enabled, the
vehicle has wireless charging
in front of the center console
storage bin. The system
operates at 145 kHz and
wirelessly charges one Qi

power output of the system is
capable of charging at a rate
up to 3 amp (15 W), as
requested by the compatible
smartphone. See Radio

Warning Lights,
Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can
signal that something is wrong
before it becomes serious
enough to cause an expensive
repair or replacement. Paying
attention to the warning lights
and gauges could prevent
injury.
Some warning lights come on
briefly when the propulsion
system is started to indicate
they are working. When one of
the warning lights comes on
and stays on while driving,
or when one of the gauges
shows there may be a
problem, check the section
that explains what to do.
Waiting to do repairs can be
costly and even dangerous.

help avoid injury, have the
vehicle serviced right away.
If there is a problem with the
airbag system, a Driver
Information Center (DIC)
message may also come on.
Passenger Airbag
Status Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger
sensing system. See
Passenger Sensing System
0 66 for important safety
information. The overhead
console has a passenger
airbag status indicator.
When the vehicle is started,
the passenger airbag status
indicator will light ON and OFF,
and the symbols for on and
off, for several seconds as a
system check. Then, after
several more seconds, the
status indicator will light either
ON or OFF, and either the
symbol for on or off, to let you
know the status of the front
outboard passenger frontal
airbag and knee airbag.
If the word ON, and the on
symbol, is lit on the passenger
airbag status indicator, it
means that the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag and
knee airbag are allowed to
inflate.
If the word OFF, and the off
symbol, is lit on the passenger
airbag status indicator, it
means that the passenger
sensing system has turned off
the front outboard passenger
frontal airbag and knee airbag.

{Warning
Do not charge your vehicle’s
battery above an 80%
charge if you are going to
drive down long, steep
grades such as mountain
passes. This provides room
in the battery for
regenerative braking to
supplement your
conventional brakes during
the descent. This is
especially important when
towing a trailer, which puts
additional stress on your
vehicle’s braking system.
See Hill and Mountain Roads
0200 for important
information about driving on
grades.
The default charge level is
100% when plugged in. To set
a different charge level, drag
the circular marker on the
Target Charge Level Gauge to
the preferred value. To lower
the desired Charge Level, drag the Charge Level marker
counterclockwise, and to
increase it drag the marker
clockwise. The Charge Level
can also be changed by
tapping
«andªinside the
gauge on the screen. The
multifunction controller (MCF)
on the center console can also
be used to set the Charge
Level by rotating clockwise or
counterclockwise when the
Target Charge Level Gauge is
highlighted. The Range
estimate updates once the
desired Charge Level is set.
To optimize battery health, the
minimum allowable Charge
Level is determined by the
vehicle. Charge Later
Instead of charging
immediately to a desired
Charge Level, you may choose
to delay the charge to the
vehicle and have it complete
by your desired departure
time. This may be a more
economical choice and a more
efficient use of energy when
charging at home. To use this
mode, touch the Charge Later
tab from the Charging screen.
With Charge Later selected,
the Charging screen displays:

vehicle will delay the planned
charge to be ready by the
time specified.
