MIRRORS
Inside Day/Night Mirror — If Equipped
A two-point pivot system allows for horizontal and vertical
adjustment of the mirror. Adjust the mirror to center on the
view through the rear window.
Headlight glare can be reduced by moving the small
control under the mirror to the night position (toward the
rear of the vehicle). The mirror should be adjusted while
set in the day position (toward the windshield).
Outside Mirrors
To receive maximum benefit, adjust the outside mirror(s) to
center on the adjacent lane of traffic with a slight overlap of
the view obtained on the inside mirror.
WARNING!
Vehicles and other objects seen in an outside convex
mirror will look smaller and farther away than they
really are. Relying too much on side convex mirrors
could cause you to collide with another vehicle or other
object. Use your inside mirror when judging the size or
distance of a vehicle seen in a side convex mirror.
Outside Mirrors Folding Feature
All outside mirrors are hinged and may be moved either
forward or rearward to resist damage. The hinges have
three detent positions:
•Full forward position
• Full rearward position
• Normal position

position the seatback as desired. To return the seatback to
its normal upright position, lean forward, rotate the knob
forward until the seatback is in the upright position.
Recliner Adjustment — With Swivel Seat
The recliner lever is located at the lower front outboard
side of the seat. To recline the seatback, lean forward
slightly, pull the lever outward, lean back to the desired
position and release the lever. To return the seatback to its
normal upright position, lean forward and pull the lever
outward. Release the lever once the seatback is in the
upright position.
WARNING!
•Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is
dangerous. The sudden movement of the seat could
cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not be
adjusted properly and you could be injured. Adjust
the seat only while the vehicle is parked.
• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the
shoulder belt is no longer resting against your chest.

If the vehicle is equipped with interlocking swivel seats,
the seats must be locked in facing forward position while
driving. If the seats are not in the correct position, a
warning will appear in the Instrument Cluster Display.
If the driver or the passenger seats are not locked in facing
forward position before the first vehicle movement, shift-
ing out of park is not allowed until the seats are bothlocked in facing forward position. When the seats are not in
the right position and the first vehicle movement after the
cranking is attempted, a chime and a text message will
appear in Instrument Cluster Display. Rotate and lock the
swivel seats in the correct position before trying again.
If the driver or the passenger seats are not locked in facing
forward position during movement of the vehicle, a mes-
sage will appear in the Instrument Cluster Display and an
intermittent chime will sound until key-off or until the
swivel seats are locked in facing forward position. Stop and
move the swivel seats in the correct position before pro-
ceeding.
If a fault is present in the system and it is not possible to
check the correct position of the swivel seats, a message
and the generic warning light appears in the Instrument
Cluster Display to inform about the failure. In these
conditions, check the status of the swivel seats and not
drive the vehicle until the swivel seats are locked in facing
forward position.

bulb. If an indicator fails to light when the lever is moved, it
would suggest that the indicator bulb is defective.

driver to lose control of the vehicle. Failure to follow
this warning may result in serious injury or death.
ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL
When engaged, the Electronic Speed Control takes over
accelerator operations at speeds greater than 25 mph
(40 km/h) up to the maximum speed of 100 mph
(160 km/h).
The Electronic Speed Control Lever is located on the left
side of the steering column.
NOTE:In order to ensure proper operation, the Electronic
Speed Control System has been designed to shut down if
multiple Speed Control functions are operated at the same
time. If this occurs, the Electronic Speed Control System
can be reactivated by rotating the Electronic Speed Control
ON/OFF center ring and resetting the desired vehicle set
speed.
To Activate
Rotate the center ring upward on the electronic speed
control lever to turn the system ON. The Cruise Indicator
Light in the Instrument Cluster Display will illuminate. To

turn the system OFF, rotate the center ring upward a
second time. The Cruise Indicator Light will turn off. The
system should be turned off when not in use.
WARNING!
Leaving the Electronic Speed Control system on when
not in use is dangerous. You could accidentally set the
system or cause it to go faster than you want. You could
lose control and have an accident. Always leave the
system OFF when you are not using it.
To Set A Desired Speed
Turn the Electronic Speed Control ON. When the vehicle
has reached the desired speed, move the electronic speed
control lever upward SET(+) and release. Release the
accelerator and the vehicle will operate at the selected
speed.
NOTE:The vehicle should be traveling at a steady speed
and on level ground before moving the electronic speed
control lever upward SET(+).
To Deactivate
A soft tap on the brake pedal, pushing the RES button, or
normal brake pressure while slowing the vehicle will deactivate Electronic Speed Control without erasing the set
speed memory. Rotating the center ring upward to turn the
system OFF or turning the ignition switch OFF erases the
set speed memory.
To Resume Speed
To resume a previously set speed, push the RES button and
release. Resume can be used at any speed above 20 mph
(32 km/h) up to the maximum speed of 100 mph
(160 km/h).
To Vary The Speed Setting
To Increase Speed
When the Electronic Speed Control is set, you can increase
speed by tapping the Speed Control lever up (+).
The drivers preferred units can be selected through the
radio settings if equipped. Refer to ”Uconnect Settings” in
“Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for more informa-
tion. The speed increment shown is dependant on the
chosen speed unit of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h):

NOTE:ParkView Rear Back Up Camera can be enabled or
disabled by Uconnect system menu.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up even when
using the Rear Back Up Camera. Always check care-
fully behind your vehicle, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, or
blind spots before backing up. You are responsible for
the safety of your surroundings and must continue to
pay attention while backing up. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
• To avoid vehicle damage, ParkView should only be
used as a parking aid. The ParkView camera is
unable to view every obstacle or object in your drive
path.
• To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle must be driven
slowly when using ParkView to be able to stop in

time when an obstacle is seen. It is recommended
that the driver look frequently over his/her shoulder
when using ParkView.

up on the camera lens, clean the lens, rinse with water, and
dry with a soft cloth. Do not cover the lens.

WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
•Only devices designed for use in this type of outlet
should be inserted into any 12 Volt outlet.
• Do not touch with wet hands.
(Continued)
WARNING! (Continued)
•Close the lid when not in use and while driving the
vehicle.
• If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric
shock and failure.
CAUTION!
• Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power
from the vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e.,
cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough, the vehicle’s battery will discharge suffi-
ciently to degrade battery life and/or prevent the
engine from starting.
• Accessories that draw higher power (i.e., coolers,
vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will degrade the battery
even more quickly. Only use these intermittently and
with greater caution.
• After the use of high power draw accessories, or long
periods of the vehicle not being started (with acces-
sories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the generator to
recharge the vehicle’s battery.
