Raising the Seatbacks
{Warning
If either seatback is not
locked, it could move
forward in a sudden stop or
crash. That could cause
injury to the person sitting
there. Always push and pull
on the seatbacks to be sure
they are locked.
{Warning
A seat belt that is
improperly routed, not
properly attached,
or twisted will not provide
the protection needed in a
crash. The person wearing
the belt could be seriously
injured. After raising the rear
seatback, always check to
be sure that the seat belts
are properly routed and
attached, and are not
twisted.To raise the seatback:
1. Push the seatback rearward until it locks in
the upright position.
For outboard seats, a tab
near the seatback lever
retracts when the
seatback is locked in place.
2. Make sure the rear seat belts are in the belt guide
and are not twisted or
caught between the seat
cushion and the seatback.Heated Rear Seats
{Warning
If temperature change or
pain to the skin cannot be
felt, the seat heater may
cause burns. See the
Warning under Heated and
Ventilated Front Seats 053.

seat buttons are on the rear
of the center console.
With the engine running, press
MorLto heat the left
outboard or right outboard

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 engine 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.Instrument Cluster

Warning (Continued)
inflate without a crash. To
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 72 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, are 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, are 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. If, after several seconds, both
status indicator lights remain
on, or if there are no lights at
all, there may be a problem
with the lights or the
passenger sensing system.
See your dealer for service.
{Warning
If the airbag readiness light
ever comes on and stays on,
it means that something may
be wrong with the airbag
system. To help avoid injury
to yourself or others, have
the vehicle serviced right
away. See Airbag Readiness
Light
0124 for more
information, including
important safety
information.

Alert Type.
Rear Cross Traffic
Alert (RCTA) System
If equipped, Rear Cross Traffic
Alert (RCTA) displays a red
warning triangle with a left or
right pointing arrow on the infotainment display to warn
of traffic coming from the left
or right. This system detects
objects coming from up to
20 m (65 ft) from the left or
right side of the vehicle. When
an object is detected, either
three beeps sound from the
left or right or three Safety
Alert Seat pulses occur on the
left or right side, depending on
the direction of the detected
vehicle.
Driving With a Trailer
Use caution while backing up
when towing a trailer. The
RCTA feature is automatically
disabled when a trailer is
attached to the vehicle.
Turning the Features On
or Off
To view available settings for
this feature, touch the
Settings icon on the
infotainment home page.
Select
“Vehicle” to display the
list of available options and
select “Collision/Detection
Systems”.
Assistance Systems
for Driving
If equipped, when driving the
vehicle in a forward gear,
Forward Collision Alert (FCA),
Lane Keep Assist (LKA), Side
Blind Zone Alert (SBZA), Lane
Change Alert (LCA), Automatic
Emergency Braking (AEB),
and/or the Front Pedestrian
Braking (FPB) System can help
to avoid a crash or reduce
crash damage.
Forward Collision
Alert (FCA) System
If equipped, the FCA system
may help to avoid or reduce
the harm caused by front-end
crashes. When approaching a
vehicle ahead too quickly, FCA
provides a red flashing alert
on the windshield and rapidly
beeps or pulses the driver
seat. FCA also lights an amber
visual alert if following another
vehicle much too closely.

corresponding outside side
mirror and will flash if the turn
signal is on.
{Warning
LCA does not alert the
driver to vehicles outside of
the system detection zones,
pedestrians, bicyclists,
or animals. It may not
provide alerts when
changing lanes under all
driving conditions. Failure to
use proper care when
changing lanes may result in
injury, death, or vehicle
damage. Before making a
lane change, always check
mirrors, glance over your
shoulder, and use the turn
signals.LCA Detection Zones
1. SBZA Detection Zone
2. LCA Detection Zone
The LCA sensor covers a zone
of approximately one lane over
from both sides of the vehicle,
or 3.5 m (11 ft). The height of
the zone is approximately
between 0.5 m (1.5 ft) and 2 m
(6 ft) off the ground. The Side
Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
warning area starts at
approximately the middle of
the vehicle and goes back 5 m
(16 ft). Drivers are also warned
of vehicles rapidly
approaching from up to 70 m
(230 ft) behind the vehicle.
How the System Works
The LCA symbol lights up in
the side mirrors when the
system detects a moving
vehicle in the next lane over
that is in the side blind zone or
rapidly approaching that zone
from behind. A lit LCA symbol
indicates it may be unsafe to
change lanes. Before making a
lane change, check the LCA
display, check mirrors, glance
over your shoulder, and use
the turn signals.

4. Discharged BatteryNegative (−) Terminal
The discharged battery
positive (+) terminal and the
discharged battery negative
(–) terminal are on the driver
side of the vehicle.
The good battery negative (–)
terminal and good battery
positive (+) terminal are on the
battery of the vehicle
providing the jump start.
The discharged battery
positive (+) terminal is under a
cover. Remove the cover to
expose the terminal.
1. Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-volt
battery with a negative
ground system.
Caution
If the other vehicle does not
have a 12-volt system with a
negative ground, both
vehicles can be damaged.
Only use a vehicle that has a

12-volt system with a
negative ground for jump
starting.
2. Position the two vehicles so that they are not
touching.
3. Set the parking brake firmly and put the
transmission in P (Park).
See Shifting Into Park
0254.
Caution
If any accessories are left on
or plugged in during the
jump starting procedure,
they could be damaged. The
repairs would not be
covered by the vehicle
warranty. Whenever
possible, turn off or unplug
all accessories on either
vehicle when jump starting. 4. Turn the ignition off. Turn
off all lights and
accessories in both
vehicles, except the hazard
warning flashers if needed.
{Warning
An electric fan can start up
even when the engine is not
running and can injure you.
Keep hands, clothing, and
tools away from any
underhood electric fan.
{Warning
Using a match near a
battery can cause battery
gas to explode. People have
been hurt doing this, and
some have been blinded.
Use a flashlight if you need
more light.
Battery fluid contains acid
that can burn you. Do not
get it on you. If you
