Supplemental Knee Air Bags
This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag mounted in the
instrument panel below the steering column and a Supplemental Passenger Knee Air Bag
mounted in the instrument panel below the glove compartment. The Supplemental Knee
Air Bags provide enhanced protection during a frontal impact by working together with the
seat belts, pretensioners, and Advanced Front Air Bags.
WARNING!
•Relyingontheairbagsalonecouldleadtomoresevereinjuriesinacollision.The
air bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In some collisions, the air
bags won't deploy at all. Always wear your seat belts even though you have air bags.
•BeingtooclosetothesteeringwheelorinstrumentpanelduringAdvancedFrontAir
Bag deployment could cause serious injury, including death. Air bags need room to
inflate. Sit back, comfortably extending your arms to reach the steering wheel or
instrument panel.
•Noobjectsshouldbeplacedoverorneartheairbagontheinstrumentpanelor
steering wheel because any such objects could cause harm if the vehicle is in a
collision severe enough to cause the air bag to inflate.
Supplemental Side Air Bags
•ThisvehicleisequippedwithSupplementalSeat-MountedSideAirBags(SABs)
located in the outboard side of the front and rear (in vehicles equipped with outboard
rear seat SABs) seats. The SABs are marked with a SRS AIRBAG label sewn into the
outboard side of the seats.
•ThisvehicleisequippedwithSupplementalSideAirBagInflatableCurtains(SABICs)
located above the side windows. The trim covering the SABICs is labeled SRS AIRBAG.
The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or complete ejection of vehicle
occupants through side windows in certain side impact events.
•TheSABICsandSABs(“SideAirBags”)aredesignedtoactivateincertainside
impacts. The Occupant Restraint Controller (“ORC”) determines whether the deploy-
ment of the Side Air Bags in a particular impact event is appropriate, based on the
severity and type of collision. Vehicle damage by itself is not a good indicator of whether
or not Side Air Bags should have deployed.

NOTE:
On models that are equipped with remote start, this feature can be programmed to come
on during a remote start through the Uconnect®system. Refer to “Uconnect®Settings”
in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in the Owner's Manual on the DVD.
WARNING!
•Personswhoareunabletofeelpaintotheskinbecauseofadvancedage,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.
•Donotplaceanythingontheseatthatinsulatesagainstheat,suchasablanketor
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.
HEATED STEERING WHEEL
The steering wheel contains a heating element that heats the steering wheel to one
temperature setting.
The heated steering wheel control button is located within the Uconnect®system. You can
gain access to the control buttons through the climate screen or the controls screen.

Audio Jack Operation
The Audio Jack allows a portable device,
such as an MP3 player or an iPod®to be
plugged into the center console and utilize
the vehicle’s audio system, using a 3.5 mm
stereo audio cable, to amplify the source
and play through the vehicle speakers.
Pushing the PLAYER button will change the
mode to auxiliary device if the Audio Jack is
connected, allowing the music from your
portable device to play through the vehicle's
speakers.
The functions of the portable device are
controlled using the device buttons. The
volume may be controlled using the radio or
portable device.
USB Port
Connect your iPod®/MP3 or compatible de-
vice using a USB cable into the USB Port.
USB Memory sticks with audio files can also be used. Then, audio from the device can be
played on the vehicles sound system while providing metadata (artist, track title, album,
etc.) information on the radio display.
Pushing the PLAYER button will change the device mode between connected auxiliary
devices.
When connected, the MP3 Player/compatible USB device can be controlled using the
radio or Steering Wheel Audio Controls or Voice Commands to play, skip to the next or
previous track, browse, and list the contents.
The MP3/WMA Player battery charges when plugged into the USB port (if supported by
the specific device).
