POWER OUTLETS
There is one 12 Volt (13 Amp) power outlet in this
vehicle, located under the climate controls. This
power outlet can power mobile phones, electronics
and other low power devices.
This power outlet is located in front of the gear
selector.

12 Volt Power Outlet

NOTE:The power outlet can be changed to “battery”
powered at all times by switching the power outlet
Engine Compartment Fuses/Distribution Unit fuse
from location F84 to F23.
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.

CLOSING THE POWER ROOF
Express Mode
Push the close switch and release it within one-half
second. The power roof will close fully and stop
automatically. This is called “Express Close”.
During Express Close operation, any movement of
the switch will stop the power roof.
Manual Mode
To close the power roof manually, push and hold
the close switch. The power roof will move forward
and automatically stop at the fully closed position.
Any release of the switch will stop the movement.
The power roof will remain in a partially closed
position until the switch is pushed and held again.
If the power roof switch fails, the sunroof can be
operated manually. See, Úpage 56 for further
information.
POWER ROOF MAINTENANCE
Use only a non-abrasive cleaner and a soft cloth to
clean the window glass. For important information
on cleaning and caring for your vehicle
Ú page 286.
IGNITION OFF OPERATION
The power sliding roof switch can remain active in
Accessory Delay for up to approximately
10 minutes after the vehicle’s ignition is placed to the OFF position. Opening either front door will
cancel this feature.
NOTE:Ignition Off timing is programmable through the
Uconnect system Ú
page 123.
RELEARN PROCEDURE
For vehicles equipped with a power sliding roof,
there is a relearn procedure that allows you to
calibrate the power roof when the “Express Mode”
stops working. To reset the power sliding roof,
follow these steps:

1. Place the ignition in the RUN position, and
start the vehicle.

NOTE:The engine must be running to perform the relearn
procedure.
2. Ensure the power sliding roof is in the fully closed position.
3. Push and hold the open/close switch for 10 seconds. This will put the power sliding roof
into calibration mode.
4. Continue holding down the close button while the top goes fully open and then back to fully
close. 5. Once the power sliding roof has stopped in the
fully closed position, release the open/close
switch. The power sliding roof is now reset and
ready to use.
NOTE:If the open/close switch is released anytime during
the relearning process, the relearn may not be
complete, and the procedure must be repeated.

WARNING LIGHTS AND MESSAGES
The warning/indicator lights will illuminate in the
instrument panel together with a dedicated
message and/or acoustic signal when applicable.
These indications are indicative and precautionary
and as such must not be considered as exhaustive
and/or alternative to the information contained in
the Owner’s Manual, which you are advised to read
carefully in all cases. Always refer to the
information in this chapter in the event of a failure
indication. All active telltales will display first if
applicable. The system check menu may appear
different based upon equipment options and
current vehicle status. Some telltales are optional
and may not appear.
RED WARNING LIGHTS
Air Bag Warning Light
This warning light will illuminate to
indicate a fault with the air bag, and will
turn on for four to eight seconds as a bulb
check when the ignition is placed in the
ON/RUN position. This light will illuminate with a
single chime when a fault with the air bag has been
detected, it will stay on until the fault is cleared. If
the light is either not on during startup, stays on, or
turns on while driving, have the system inspected
at an authorized dealer as soon as possible.

Brake Warning Light
This warning light monitors various brake
functions, including brake fluid level and
parking brake application. If the brake
light turns on it may indicate that the
parking brake is applied, that the brake fluid level
is low, or that there is a problem with the Anti-Lock
Brake System reservoir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake has
been disengaged, and the fluid level is at the full
mark on the master cylinder reservoir, it indicates
a possible brake hydraulic system malfunction or
that a problem with the Brake Booster has been
detected by the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) /
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system. In this
case, the light will remain on until the condition has
been corrected. If the problem is related to the
brake booster, the ABS pump will run when
applying the brake, and a brake pedal pulsation
may be felt during each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve braking
capacity in the event of a failure to a portion of the
hydraulic system. A leak in either half of the dual
brake system is indicated by the Brake Warning
Light, which will turn on when the brake fluid level
in the master cylinder has dropped below a
specified level.
The light will remain on until the cause is corrected.
NOTE:The light may flash momentarily during sharp
cornering maneuvers, which change fluid level
conditions. The vehicle should have service
performed, and the brake fluid level checked.
If brake failure is indicated, immediate repair is
necessary.
Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake System
(ABS) are also equipped with Electronic Brake
Force Distribution (EBD). In the event of an EBD
failure, the Brake Warning Light will turn on along
with the ABS Light. Immediate repair to the ABS
system is required.
Operation of the Brake Warning Light can be
checked by turning the ignition switch from the OFF
position to the ON/RUN position. The light should
illuminate for approximately two seconds. The light
should then turn off unless the parking brake is
applied or a brake fault is detected. If the light does
not illuminate, have the light inspected by an
authorized dealer. The light also will turn on when the parking brake
is applied with the ignition switch in the ON/RUN
position.
NOTE:This light shows only that the parking brake is
applied. It does not show the degree of brake appli
-
cation.
Battery Charge Warning Light
This warning light will illuminate when the
battery is not charging properly. If it stays
on while the engine is running, there may
be a malfunction with the charging
system. Contact an authorized dealer as soon as
possible.
This indicates a possible problem with the
electrical system or a related component.
Coolant Temperature Warning Light

This light warns of an overheated engine
condition. If the light turns on while driving,
safely pull over and stop the vehicle. If the
Air Conditioning (A/C) system is on, turn it
off. Also, shift the transmission into NEUTRAL and
idle the vehicle. If the temperature reading does not
return to normal, turn the engine off immediately
and call for service.

NOTE:As the coolant temperature gauge approaches "H",
this indicator will illuminate and a single chime will
sound.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is
dangerous. Part of the brake system may have
failed. It will take longer to stop the vehicle. You
could have a collision. Have the vehicle checked
immediately.
