Memory Seats
Overview
If equipped, the memory seat feature allows
drivers to save their unique driving positions
and a shared exit position. See“Saving
Seating Positions” later in this section. The
saved positions can be recalled manually by
all drivers. See “Manually Recalling Seating
Positions” later in this section. Drivers with
remote key 1 and 2 can also recall them
automatically. See “Auto Seat Entry Memory
Recall” or“Auto Seat Exit Memory Recall”
later in this section. To enable automatic
recalls, turn on Seat Entry Memory and/or
Seat Exit Memory. See “Enable Automatic
Recalls” under“Vehicle Personalization Settings”
later in this section. The memory
recalls may be cancelled at any time during
the recall. See “Cancel Memory Seating
Recalls” later in this section.
Identifying Driver Number
The vehicle identifies the current driver by
their remote key number 1–8. The current
remote key number may be identified by
Driver Information Center (DIC) welcome
message, “You are driver x for memory
recalls.” This message is displayed the first
few times the vehicle is turned on when a
different remote key is used. For Seat Entry
Memory to work properly, save positions to
the 1 or 2 memory button matching the
driver number of this welcome message. To
aid in identifying remote key IDs, it is
recommended to only carry one remote key
when entering the vehicle. Perform the
following if the welcome message is not
displayed:
1. Move all remote keys away from the vehicle.
2. Start the vehicle with another remote key. A DIC welcome message should
display indicating the driver number of
the other remote key. Turn the vehicle
off and remove the other remote key
from the vehicle. 3. Start the vehicle with the initial remote
key. The DIC welcome message should
display the driver number of the initial
remote key.
Saving Seating Positions
Read these instructions completely before
saving memory positions.
To save preferred driving positions to
1 and 2: 1. Turn the vehicle on or to ACC/ACCESSORY. A DIC welcome message
may indicate the driver number of the
current remote key. See “Identifying
Driver Number” previously in this
section.
2. Adjust all available memory features to the desired driving position.
3. Press and release SET; a beep will sound.
4. Immediately upon releasing SET, press and hold memory button 1 or 2 matching
the current Driver’s remote key number
until two beeps sound. If too much time
passes between releasing SET and
pressing 1 or 2, the two beeps will not
sound indicating memory position were
not saved. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to try
again.

Seats and Restraints 59
Seat Belt Use During Pregnancy
Seat belts work for everyone, including
pregnant women. Like all occupants, they
are more likely to be seriously injured if
they do not wear seat belts.
A pregnant woman should wear a
lap-shoulder belt, and the lap portion should
be worn as low as possible, below the
rounding, throughout the pregnancy.
The best way to protect the fetus is to
protect the mother. When a seat belt is
worn properly, it is more likely that the
fetus will not be hurt in a crash. For
pregnant women, as for anyone, the key to
making seat belts effective is wearing them
properly.
Seat Belt Extender
If the vehicle's seat belt will fasten around
you, you should use it.
But if a seat belt is not long enough, your
dealer will order you an extender. Only a
GM dealer issued extender should be used.
When you go in to order it, take the
heaviest coat you will wear, so the extender
will be long enough for you. To help avoid
personal injury, do not let someone else use
it, and use it only for the seat it is made to
fit. The extender has been designed for
adults. Never use it for securing child
restraints. For more information on the
proper use and fit of seat belt extenders see
the instruction sheet that comes with the
extender.
Safety System Check
Periodically check the seat belt reminder,
seat belts, buckles, latch plates, retractors,
shoulder belt height adjusters (if equipped),
and seat belt anchorages to make sure they
are all in working order. Look for any other
loose or damaged seat belt system parts
that might keep a seat belt system from
performing properly. See your dealer to
have it repaired. Torn, frayed, or twisted
seat belts may not protect you in a crash.Torn or frayed seat belts can rip apart under
impact forces. If a belt is torn or frayed,
have it replaced immediately. If a belt is
twisted, it may be possible to untwist by
reversing the latch plate on the webbing.
If the twist cannot be corrected, ask your
dealer to fix it.
Make sure the seat belt reminder light is
working. See
Seat Belt Reminders 0111.
Keep seat belts clean and dry. See Seat Belt
Care 059.
Seat Belt Care
Keep belts clean and dry.
Seat belts should be properly cared for and
maintained.
Seat belt hardware should be kept dry and
free of dust or debris. As necessary, exterior
hard surfaces and seat belt webbing may be
lightly cleaned with mild soap and water.
Ensure there is not excessive dust or debris
in the mechanism. If dust or debris exists in
the system please see the dealer. Parts may
need to be replaced to ensure proper
functionality of the system.

The compass system is designed to operate
for a certain number of miles or degrees of
turn before needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass display shows
CAL, drive the vehicle for a short distance in
an open area where it can receive a GPS
signal. The compass system will
automatically determine when a GPS signal
is restored and provide a heading again.
Clock
Set the time and date using the
infotainment system. See "Time/Date" under
Settings0173.
Power Outlets
Accessory power outlets can be used to plug
in electrical equipment, such as a cell phone
or MP3 player.
The vehicle has one 12 Volt accessory power
outlet under the climate control system and
one 110/120 Volt Alternating Current outlet
on the rear of the center console.
12 Volt Power Outlet
Caution
Do not insert metal objects such as USB
cord plugs, electronic accessories, keys,
or coins into the 12-volt power outlet.
Objects may become hot, melt, or cause
a spark damaging the outlet or the metal
object. Only use compatible 12-volt power
accessories in the power outlet.
Caution
Leaving electrical equipment plugged in
for an extended period of time while the
vehicle is off will drain the battery.
Always unplug electrical equipment when
not in use and do not plug in equipment
that exceeds the maximum 15 amp
rating.
Certain power accessory plugs may not be
compatible with the accessory power outlet
and could overload vehicle or adapter fuses.
If a problem is experienced, see your dealer.
When adding electrical equipment, be sure
to follow the proper installation instructions
included with the equipment. See Add-On
Electrical Equipment 0294.
Caution
Hanging heavy equipment from the
power outlet can cause damage not
covered by the vehicle warranty. The
power outlets are designed for accessory
power plugs only, such as cell phone
charge cords.

Wireless charging may affect the
operation of an implanted pacemaker or
other medical devices. If you have one, it
is recommended to consult with your
doctor before using the wireless charging
system.
The vehicle must be on, in ACC/ACCESSORY,
or Retained Accessory Power (RAP) must be
active. The wireless charging feature may
not correctly indicate charging when the
vehicle is in RAP, during a Bluetooth phone
call, or when phone projection (e.g. Apple
CarPlay / Android Auto) is active. See
Retained Accessory Power (RAP) 0209.
The operating temperature is −40 °C (−40 °F)
to 85 °C (185 °F) for the charging system and
0 °C (32 °F) to 35 °C (95 °F) for the phone.

before charging your compatible
smartphone. Objects, such as coins, keys,
rings, paper clips, or cards, between the
smartphone and charger may become
very hot.
On the rare occasion that the charging
system does not detect an object, and
the object gets wedged between the
smartphone and charger, remove the
smartphone and allow the object to cool
before removing it from the charger, to
prevent burns.
To charge a compatible smartphone:
1. Confirm the smartphone is capable of wireless charging.
2. Remove all objects from the charging pad. The system may not charge if there
are any objects between the smartphone
and charger.
3. Place the smartphone face up against the rear of the charger.
To maximize the charge rate, ensure the
smartphone is fully seated and centered
in the holder with nothing under it.
A thick smartphone case may prevent
the charger from working, or reduce the
charging performance. See your dealer
for additional information.

]will appear on the
infotainment display, next to the phone
icon. This indicates that the smartphone
is detected.

]turns off or a yellow triangle
appears, remove the smartphone and
any objects from the pad. Turn the
smartphone 180 degrees and wait a few
seconds before placing/aligning it on the
pad again.
