WARNING!
• Adjusting a seat while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. The sudden
movement of the seat could cause you to lose control. The seat belt might not
be properly adjusted, and you could be severely injured or killed. Only adjust a
seat while the vehicle is parked.
• Do not ride with the seatback reclined so that the seat belt is no longer resting
against your chest. In a collision, you could slide under the seat belt and be
severely injured or killed. Use the recliner only when the vehicle is parked.
REAR SEATS
60/40 Split Rear Seat
To Lower Rear Seatback
• With the front seats fully upright and
positioned forward, pull upward on the
release lever and fold the rear seatback
down.
To Raise Rear Seatback
• Raise the rear seatback and lock it into
place.
To Recline Rear Seatback
• To recline the seatback, lean forward
before lifting the handle, then lean back to the desired position and release the
handle. Lift the handle to return the seatback to an upright position.

WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age,
chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaus-
tion 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.
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 climate or controls
screen of the touchscreen.
• Press the heated steering wheel button
once to turn the heating element On.
• Press the heated steering wheel button
a second time to turn the heating
element Off.
Once the heated steering wheel has been turned on, it will operate for approximately
58 to 70 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:
Vehicle Equipped With Remote Start
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!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin because of advanced age,
chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaus-
tion, or other physical conditions must exercise care when using the steering
wheel heater. It may cause burns even at low temperatures, especially if used
for long periods.
• Do not place anything on the steering wheel that insulates against heat, such
as a blanket or steering wheel covers of any type and material. This may cause
the steering wheel heater to overheat.

SYNC Temperature Soft-Key
• Touch the “SYNC” soft-key on the Uconnect®radio to control the driver and
passenger temperatures simultaneously. Touch the “SYNC” soft-key a second time
to control the temperatures individually.

Heated Mirrors
The mirrors are heated to melt frost or ice. This feature is activated whenever you turn
on the rear window defroster.
PARKSENSE® FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST
ParkSense®can be enabled and disabled by pressing the ParkSense®switch located
below the climate controls, on the switch panel.
The four ParkSense
®sensors, located in the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area
behind the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can detect
obstacles from approximately 12 in (30 cm) up to 79 in (200 cm) from the rear
fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction, depending on the location, type and
orientation of the obstacle.
The six ParkSense
®sensors, located in the front fascia/bumper, monitor the area in
front of the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can detect
obstacles from approximately 12 in (30 cm) up to 47 in (120 cm) from the front
fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction, depending on the location, type and
orientation of the obstacle.
When an object is detected within 6.5 ft (2 m) behind the rear bumper while the
vehicle is in REVERSE, a warning will display in the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) and a chime will sound (when Sound and Display is selected from the
Customer Programmable Features section of the Uconnect
®System screen). As the
vehicle moves closer to the object, the chime rate will change from single 1/2 second
tone (for rear only), to slow (for rear only), to fast, to continuous.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
