REAR SEATS
Folding Rear Seatback
• To fold the rear seatback forward, pull onthe loops to fold down either or both seat-
backs. When returning the rear seatback
to the upright position, be sure the seat-
back is latched.
HEATED SEATS
Front Heated Seats
• The controls for the front heated seats arelocated in the center console below the
climate controls.
•
Press the switch once to select High-level
heating. Press the switch a second time to
select Low-level heating. Press the switch a
third time to shut the heating elements Off.
• If the High-level setting is selected, the system will automatically switch to Low-
level after approximately 60 minutes. The
Low-level setting will turn Off automati-
cally after approximately 45 minutes.
WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age, chronic
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaustion or other
physical conditions must exercise care when using the seat heater. It may cause
burns even at low temperatures, especially if used for long periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat that insulates against heat, such as a blanket or
cushion. This may cause the seat heater to overheat. Sitting in a seat that has been
overheated could cause serious burns due to the increased surface temperature of
the seat.

POWER OUTLET
• There are two 12 Volt electrical outlets onthis vehicle.
• The instrument panel power outlet, lo- cated below the climate control knobs,
has power available only when the igni-
tion is ON. This power outlet will also op-
erate a conventional cigar lighter unit.
• There is also a power outlet located on the inside of the center console. This power
outlet is powered directly from the battery
(power available at all times). Items
plugged into this power outlet may dis-
charge the battery and/or prevent the engine from starting.
NOTE:
• Do not exceed the maximum power of 160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the 160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is exceeded, the fuse protecting the system will need to be replaced.
• Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not insert any other object in the power outlet as this will damage the outlet and blow the fuse. Improper use of the power
outlet can cause damage not covered by your new vehicle warranty.

CAUTION!
• When installing the Integrated Power Module cover, it is important to ensure the
cover is properly positioned and fully latched. Failure to do so may allow water to get
into the Integrated Power Module, and possibly result in an electrical system failure.
• When replacing a blown fuse, it is important to use only a fuse having the correct
amperage rating. The use of a fuse with a rating other than indicated may result in a
dangerous electrical system overload. If a properly rated fuse continues to blow, it
indicates a problem in the circuit that must be corrected.
