Voice command issues
Issue Possible
Cause(s)Possible Solution(s)
SYNC does not
understand or is
calling the wrong
contact when I
want to make a
call.•You may be
using the wrong
voice commands.
•You may not be
saying the name
exactly as it is
saved.
•Contacts in your
phonebook may be
very short and
similar, or they
may contain
special characters.
•Your phonebook
contacts may be
saved in CAPS.•Review the phone voice
commands at the beginning of the
phone chapter.
•Ensure that you are saying the
contacts exactly as they are
listed. For example, if a contact is
saved as Joe Wilson, say, “Call Joe
Wilson”.
•The system does better if you
list full names such as “Joe
Wilson” rather than “Joe”.
•Don’t use special characters
such as 123 or ICE as the system
will not recognize them.
•If contacts are saved in CAPS,
you will have to spell them. JAKE
will require you to say, “ Call
J-A-K-E.”
Helpful Hints
•Ensure that the interior of the vehicle is as quiet as possible. Wind
noise from open windows and road vibrations may prevent the system
from correctly recognizing spoken voice commands.
•Ensure that you are speaking naturally and without any large pauses
between words.
•After you push
to begin a voice session, wait until the prompt
sounds andListeningappears in the display. Anything spoken prior to
this will not register with the system.
•You can, at any time, interrupt the system while it is speaking by
pushing
during an active voice session. The system will respond
with a listening prompt and allow you to speak a command.
•For a list of available voice commands, you can push
and say,
“Help” after the tone. The system will audibly list voice commands
available in your current mode.
•The system’s microphone is either located in your rear view mirror or
in the headliner just above your windshield. Ensure that the
microphone area is kept free of obstructions.

REMOTE ENTRY SYSTEM (IF EQUIPPED)
FCC ID: LXP-RX4318 IC: 2298A-RX4318
The integrated keyhead transmitters (IKTs) and intelligent access keys
(IA key) comply with part 15 of the FCC rules and with RSS-210 of
Industry Canada. Operation is subject to the following two conditions:
(1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) This device
must accept any interference received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation.
Changes or modifications not expressly approved by the party
responsible for compliance could void the user’s authority to
operate the equipment.
The typical operating range for your transmitter is approximately 66 feet
(20 meters). A decrease in operating range could be caused by:
•weather conditions,
•nearby radio towers,
•structures around the vehicle, or
•other vehicles parked next to your vehicle.
The transmitter allows you to:
•remotely unlock the vehicle doors.
•remotely lock all the vehicle doors.
•remotely open the trunk.
•arm and disarm the perimeter anti-theft system.
•operate the illuminated entry feature.
The remote entry lock/unlock feature operates in any ignition position
except when the engine is running and vehicle speed is more than 4 mph
(7 km/h).
If there are problems with the remote entry system, make sure to take
ALL integrated keyhead transmitters or intelligent access keys
with you to the authorized dealer in order to aid in troubleshooting the
problem.
Intelligent Access (if equipped)
Your vehicle will allow you to unlock and enter your vehicle without
actively using a key or transmitter. You can use the intelligent access
feature at the driver door, passenger front door or at the trunk. You can
activate the intelligent access feature as long as you have one of your
intelligent access keys within range of the driver door, passenger front
door or the trunk.

Using the armrest (if equipped)
Move the armrest up or down. You
can also move it all the way up to
stow it on the side of the seatback.
Heated seat cushions (if equipped)
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. The seat
heater 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, because this may
cause the seat heater to overheat. Do not puncture the seat with pins,
needles, or other pointed objects because this may damage the heating
element which may cause the seat heater to overheat. An overheated
seat may cause serious personal injury.
Note:Do not do the following:
•Place heavy objects on the seat
•Operate the seat heater if water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat. Allow the seat to dry thoroughly.
To operate the heated seat cushion:
•Press the button located on the
instrument panel to activate.

Front safety belt usage sensors
The front safety belt usage sensors detect whether or not the driver and
front outboard passenger safety belts are fastened. This information
allows your Personal Safety System to tailor the airbag deployment and
safety belt pretensioner activation depending upon safety belt usage.
Front outboard safety belt pretensioners
The safety belt pretensioners at the front outboard seating positions are
designed to tighten the safety belts firmly against the occupant’s body
during frontal collisions, and in side collisions when the side air curtain
system activates. This helps increase the effectiveness of the safety belts.
In frontal collisions, the safety belt pretensioners can be activated alone
or, if the collision is of sufficient severity, together with the front airbags.
Front outboard safety belt energy management retractors
The front safety belt energy management retractors allow webbing to be
pulled out of the retractor in a gradual and controlled manner in
response to the occupant’s forward momentum. This helps reduce the
risk of force-related injuries to the occupant’s chest by limiting the load
on the occupant.
Determining if the Personal Safety System is operational
The Personal Safety System uses a warning light in the instrument
cluster or a backup tone to indicate the condition of the system. Refer to
theWarning lights and chimessection in theInstrument Cluster
chapter. Routine maintenance of the Personal Safety System is not
required.
The Restraints Control Module (RCM) monitors its own internal circuits
and the circuits for the airbag supplemental restraints, crash sensor(s),
safety belt pretensioners, front safety belt buckle sensors, front
passenger sensing system, and the driver seat position sensor. In
addition, the RCM also monitors the restraints warning light in the
instrument cluster. A difficulty with the system is indicated by one or
more of the following.
•The warning light will either flash or stay lit.
•The warning light will not illuminate immediately after ignition is
turned on.
•A series of five beeps will be heard. The tone pattern will repeat
periodically until the problem and warning light are repaired.
If any of these things happen, even intermittently, have the Personal
Safety System serviced at an authorized dealer immediately. Unless
serviced, the system may not function properly in the event of a
collision.

Restraint of pregnant women
WARNING:Always ride and drive with your seatback upright
and the safety belt properly fastened. The lap portion of the
safety belt should fit snug and be positioned low across the hips. The
shoulder portion of the safety belt should be positioned across the
chest. Pregnant women should also follow this practice. See figure
below.
Pregnant women should always
wear their safety belt. The lap belt
portion of a combination lap and
shoulder belt should be positioned
low across the hips below the belly
and worn as tight as comfort will
allow. The shoulder belt should be
positioned to cross the middle of
the shoulder and the center of the
chest.
Safety Belt Locking Modes
All safety restraints in the vehicle are combination lap and shoulder
belts. The driver safety belt has the first locking mode and the front
outboard passenger and rear seat safety belts have both types of locking
modes described as follows:
Vehicle sensitive mode
This is the normal retractor mode, which allows free shoulder belt length
adjustment to your movements and locking in response to vehicle
movement. For example, if the driver brakes suddenly or turns a corner
sharply, or the vehicle receives an impact of approximately 5 mph
(8 km/h) or more, the combination safety belts will lock to help reduce
forward movement of the driver and passengers.
In addition, the retractor is designed to lock if the webbing is pulled out
too quickly. If this occurs, let the belt retract slightly and pull webbing
out again in a slow and controlled manner.
Automatic locking mode
In this mode, the shoulder belt is automatically pre-locked. The belt will
still retract to remove any slack in the shoulder belt. The automatic
locking mode is not available on the driver safety belt.
