Supplemental Knee Air Bags
This vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag mounted in the
instrument panel below the steering column. The Supplemental Driver Knee Air Bag
provides 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 seats. The SABs are marked with a SRS
AIRBAG or 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
or 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 and certain rollover events. The Occupant Restraint Controller (“ORC”)
determines whether the deployment of the Side Air Bags in a particular side impact or
rollover 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.

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.
•Presstheheatedsteeringwheelbuttononce to turn the heating element ON.
•Presstheheatedsteeringwheelbuttonasecondtimetoturntheheatingelement
OFF.
Once the heated steering wheel has been turned on, it will operate for up to 80 minutes
before automatically shutting off. The heated steering wheel can shut off early or may not
turn on when the steering wheel is already warm.
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.

Automatic High Beams
The Automatic High Beams system provides increased forward lighting at night by
automating high beam control through the use of a digital camera mounted above the
inside rearview mirror. This camera detects vehicle specific light and automatically
switches from high beams to low beams until the approaching vehicle is out of view. This
feature is programmable through the Uconnect®system. Refer to “Uconnect®Settings”
in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further
details.

Operation
When the transmission is in DRIVE, it will operate automatically, shifting between the
eight available gears. To engage AutoStick, simply tap one of the steering wheel-mounted
shift paddles (+/-). Tapping (-) to enter AutoStick mode will downshift the transmission to
the next lower gear, while using (+) to enter AutoStick mode will retain the current gear.
When AutoStick is active, the current transmission gear is displayed in the instrument
cluster.
In AutoStick mode, the transmission will shift up or down when (+/-) is manually selected
by the driver, unless an engine lugging or overspeed condition would result. It will remain
in the selected gear until another upshift or downshift is chosen, except as described
below.

without taking your foot off the accelerator pedal.

could lose their grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or personal injury.
