HEATED STEERING
WHEEL (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The steering wheel contains a heating
element that helps warm your hands
in cold weather. The heated steering
wheel has only one temperature set-
ting. Once the heated steering wheel
has been turned on it will operate for
approximately 58 to 70 minutes be-
fore automatically shutting off. The
heated steering wheel can shut off
early or may not turn on when the
steering wheel is already warm.
The heated steering wheel can be
turned on and off using the Uconnect
Touch™ System.
Touch the “Controls” soft-key then
touch the “Heated Steering Wheel”
soft-key to turn on the heated steering
wheel. Press the “Heated Steering
Wheel” soft-key a second time to turn
the heated steering wheel off.NOTE:
The engine must be running for the
heated steering wheel to operate.
WARNING!
 Persons who are unable to feel
pain to the skin because of ad-
vanced age, chronic illness, diabe-
tes, spinal cord injury, medica-
tion, alcohol use, exhaustion, or
other physical conditions must ex-
ercise care when using the steering
wheel heater. It may cause burns
even at low temperatures, espe-
cially if used for long periods.
 Do not place anything on the
steering wheel that insulates
against heat, such as a blanket or
steering wheel covers of any type
and material. This may cause the
steering wheel heater to overheat.
ADJUSTABLE PEDALS

FORWARD COLLISION
WARNING (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
warns the driver of a potential colli-
sion with the vehicle in front of you
and prompts the driver to take action
in order to avoid the collision.
FCW monitors the information from
the forward looking sensor as well as
the Electronic Brake Controller
(EBC), wheel speed sensors, i.e., to
calculate a probable rear-end colli-
sion. When the system determines
that a rear-end collision is probable a
warning message (both audible and
visual) will be displayed on the EVIC.
When the system determines a colli-
sion with the vehicle in front of you is
no longer probable, the warning mes-
sage will be deactivated.
NOTE:
The minimum speed for FCW acti-
vation is 16 km/h.
WARNING!
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
is not intended to avoid a collision on
its own. The driver has the responsi-
bility to avoid a collision by control-
ling the vehicle via braking and
steering. Failure to follow this warn-
ing could lead to serious injury or
death.
Changing FCW Status
The FCW feature can be set to far, set
to near or turned off using the
Uconnect Touch™ System, refer to
“Uconnect Touch™ Settings” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel”
for further information. The FCW
Status Off, Near or Far will be dis-
played in the Uconnect Touch™ dis-
play.
The default status of FCW is the
“Far” setting, this allows the system
to warn you of a possible collision
with the vehicle in front of you when
you are farther away. This gives you
the most reaction time.
Changing the FCW status to the
“Near” setting, allows the system to
warn you of a possible collision with the vehicle in front of you when you
are much closer. This setting provides
less reaction time than the “Far” set-
ting, which allows for a more dynamic
driving experience.
Changing the FCW status to “Off”
prevents the system from warning you
of a possible collision with the vehicle
in front of you.
NOTE:
 In the “Off” setting FCW OFF
will be displayed on the
Uconnect Touch™ display.
 The system will retain the last setting selected by the driver af-
ter ignition shut down.
 FCW will not react to irrelevant objects such as overhead ob-
jects, ground reflections, objects
not in the path of the car, sta-
tionary objects that are far away,
oncoming traffic, or leading ve-
hicles with the same or higher
rate of speed.
 FCW will be disabled like ACC below with the unavailable
screens.

19. Seat Belt Reminder LightWhen the ignition switch is first
turned to ON/RUN, this light
will turn on for four to eight
seconds as a bulb check. During the
bulb check, if the driver's seat belt is
unbuckled, a chime will sound. After
the bulb check or when driving, if the
driver's seat belt remains unbuckled,
the Seat Belt Reminder Light will il-
luminate and the chime will sound.
Refer to “Occupant Restraints” in
“Things To Know Before Starting
Your Vehicle” for further information.
20. Temperature Gauge
The temperature gauge shows engine
coolant temperature. Any reading
within the normal range indicates
that the engine cooling system is op-
erating satisfactorily.
The gauge pointer will likely indicate
a higher temperature when driving in
hot weather, up mountain grades, or
when towing a trailer. It should not be
allowed to exceed the upper limits of
the normal operating range.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot engine cooling
system could damage your vehicle.
If the temperature gauge reads “H”
pull over and stop the vehicle. Idle
the vehicle with the air conditioner
turned off until the pointer drops
back into the normal range. If the
pointer remains on the “H” and you
hear continuous chimes, turn the en-
gine off immediately and call an au-
thorized dealership for service.WARNING!
A hot engine cooling system is dan-
gerous. You or others could be badly
burned by steam or boiling coolant.
You may want to call an authorized
dealership for service if your vehicle
overheats. If you decide to look un-
der the hood yourself, see “Main-
taining Your Vehicle”. Follow the
warnings under the Cooling System
Pressure Cap paragraph. ELECTRONIC VEHICLE
