Seats and Restraints 45
If equipped with a heated steering wheel,
the auto heated steering wheel activation
will follow the heated seat auto activation
and the heated wheel indicator will follow
the state of the steering wheel heat.
Remote Start Heated and Ventilated Seats
During a remote start (if equipped), the
heated or ventilated seats can be turned on
automatically. When it is cold outside, the
heated seats turn on, and when it is hot
outside the ventilated seats turn on. The
heated and ventilated seat indicators and
heated steering wheel indicator may come
on during this operation. The heated or
ventilated seats are canceled when the
vehicle is turned on. Press the heated or
ventilated seat button to use the heated or
ventilated seats after the vehicle is started.
The temperature performance of an
unoccupied seat may be reduced. This is
normal.
To enable or disable remote start heated or
ventilated seats, select Settings > Vehicle >
Remote Lock, Unlock, and Start > Remote
Start Auto Heat Seats or Remote Start Auto
Cool Seats > ON or OFF. SeeRemote Vehicle
Start 012.Seat Belts
This section describes how to use seat belts
properly, and some things not to do.
{Warning
Do not let anyone ride where a seat belt
cannot be worn properly. In a crash,
if you or your passenger(s) are not
wearing seat belts, injuries can be much
worse than if you are wearing seat belts.
You can be seriously injured or killed by
hitting things inside the vehicle harder or
by being ejected from the vehicle. In
addition, anyone who is not buckled up
can strike other passengers in the vehicle.
It is extremely dangerous to ride in a
cargo area, inside or outside of a vehicle.
In a collision, passengers riding in these
areas are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed. Do not allow passengers
to ride in any area of the vehicle that is
not equipped with seats and seat belts.
Always wear a seat belt, and check that
all passenger(s) are restrained
properly too. This vehicle has indicators as a reminder to
buckle the seat belts. See
Seat Belt
Reminders 088.
Why Seat Belts Work
When riding in a vehicle, you travel as fast
as the vehicle does. If the vehicle stops
suddenly, you keep going until something
stops you. It could be the windshield, the
instrument panel, or the seat belts!
When you wear a seat belt, you and the
vehicle slow down together. There is more
time to stop because you stop over a longer
distance and, when worn properly, your
strongest bones take the forces from the
seat belts. That is why wearing seat belts
makes such good sense.

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.

Do not use the IntelliBeam in dense exhaust,
smoke, fog, snow, road spray, mist, or other
airborne obstructions
Turning the IntelliBeam On and Off
To enable the IntelliBeam system, push the
turn signal lever away from you and release
while the exterior lamp control is in AUTO
or
2.
Driving with IntelliBeam
The system only activates the high beams
when driving over 40 km/h (25 mph).
The blue high-beam on light appears on the
instrument cluster when the high beams
are on.
There is a sensor near the top center of the
windshield that automatically controls the
system. Keep this area of the windshield
clear of debris to allow for best system
performance.
The high-beam headlamps remain on, under
the automatic control, until one of the
following situations occurs:
.The fog lamps are turned On, if equipped.
.The system detects an approaching
vehicle's headlamps.
.The system detects a preceding vehicle's
taillamps.
.The outside light is bright enough that
high-beam headlamps are not required.
.The vehicle speed drops below 20 km/h
(12 mph).
The IntelliBeam system can be disabled by
manually selecting the high-beams or flash
to pass. If this happens, re-enable the
IntelliBeam system as described above. The
instrument cluster light will come on to
indicate the IntelliBeam system is
reactivated.
The high beams may not turn off
automatically if the system cannot detect
another vehicle's lamps because of any of
the following:
.The other vehicle's lamps are missing,
damaged, obstructed from view,
or otherwise undetected.
.The other vehicle's lamps are covered
with dirt, snow, and/or road spray.
.The other vehicle's lamps cannot be
detected due to dense exhaust, smoke,
fog, snow, road spray, mist, or other
airborne obstructions.
.The vehicle windshield is dirty, cracked,
or obstructed by something that blocks
the view of the light sensor.
.The vehicle is loaded such that the front
end points upward, causing the light
sensor to aim high and not detect
headlamps and taillamps.
.The vehicle is being driven on winding or
hilly roads.
The automatic high-beam headlamps may
need to be disabled if any of the above
conditions exist.
Exterior Lamps Off Reminder
A warning chime will sound if the exterior
lamp control is left on in either the
headlamp or parking lamp position and the
driver door is opened with the ignition off.
Headlamp High/Low-Beam
Changer
Push the turn signal lever away from you
and release to turn the high beams on. To
return to low beams, push the lever again
or pull it toward you and release.

Infotainment System 129
.The route prohibits the entry of a vehicle
due to a regulation by time or season or
any other regulation which may be given.
.Some routes might not be searched.
.The route to the destination might not be
shown if there are new roads, if roads
have recently changed, or if certain roads
are not listed in Maps.
To recalibrate the vehicle's position on the
map, park with the vehicle running for two
to five minutes, until the vehicle position
updates. Make sure the vehicle is parked in
a location that is safe and has a clear view
of the sky and away from large
obstructions.
Voice Recognition
If equipped, Google Assistant allows for
hands-free use of media and messaging,
navigation and climate control functionality
in the vehicle. This feature can be started by
pressing
gon the steering wheel, touching
Google Assistant on the Home screen, or by
using the wake up words “Hey Google”or
“OK Google.”
However, not all features within these areas
are supported by voice commands and
requires the user to have a valid data subscription plan or connected to WiFi in
order to use some of the Google Assistant
features.
Using Voice Recognition
Voice recognition becomes available once
the system is initialized. This begins when
the vehicle is turned on. Initialization may
take a few moments.
1. Press
gon the steering wheel controls,
touch Google Assistant on the Home
screen, or use the wake up words “Hey
Google” or“OK Google” to activate voice
recognition. Google Assistant must be set
as the Default Assistant for the
gand
the wake word options to work.
2. Clearly speak one of the commands described later in this section.
Canceling Google Assistant
.Presscon the steering wheel controls
to cancel the Google Assistant request.
Helpful Hints for Speaking Commands
Voice recognition identifies commands that
are naturally stated in sentence form,
or direct commands that state the
application and the task. For best results:
.Speak the command naturally, not too
fast, not too slow.
.Use direct commands without a lot of
extra words. For example,
“Call
at work,” “Play” followed by the artist or
song name, or “Play”followed by the
radio station number.
Direct commands are more clearly
understood by the system. An example of a
direct command is “Dial .”
If a cell phone number was saved with a
name and a place, the direct command
should include both. For example “Call
at work.”
Voice Recognition for the Radio
When voice is started, the voice recognition
commands for AM, FM, SiriusXM (if
equipped), and media apps (if supported) are
available.
“Play AM” :Tune to the
radio station frequency identified in the
command (like “nine fifty”).
“Play FM” :Tune to the
radio station frequency identified in the
command (like “one oh one point one”).
