WARNING!
• Side Air Bags need room to inflate. Do not lean against the door or window. Situpright in the center of the seat.
• Being too close to the Side Air Bags during deployment could cause you to be
severely injured or killed.
• Relying on the Side Air Bags alone could lead to more severe injuries in a
collision. The Side Air Bags work with your seat belt to restrain you properly. In
some collisions, Side Air Bags won’t deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt
even though you have Side Air Bags.
• This vehicle is equipped with left and right Supplemental Side Air Bag
Inflatable Curtains (SABICs). Do not stack luggage or other cargo up high
enough to block the deployment of the SABICs. The trim covering above the
side windows where the SABIC and its deployment path are located should
remain free from any obstructions.
• This vehicle is equipped with SABICs. In order for the SABICs to work as
intended, do not install any accessory items in your vehicle which could alter
the roof. Do not add an aftermarket sunroof to your vehicle. Do not add roof
racks that require permanent attachments (bolts or screws) for installation on
the vehicle roof. Do not drill into the roof of the vehicle for any reason.
• Do not use accessory seat covers or place objects between you and the Side Air
Bags; the performance could be adversely affected and/or objects could be
pushed into you, causing serious injury.
Enhanced Accident Response System
In the event of an impact, if the communication network remains intact, and the
power remains intact, depending on the nature of the event, the ORC will determine
whether to have the Enhanced Accident Response System perform the following
functions:
• Cut off fuel to the engine.
• Flash hazard lights as long as the battery has power or until the hazard light button
is pushed. The hazard lights can be deactivated by pushing the hazard light
button.
• Turn on the interior lights, which remain on as long as the battery has power.
• Unlock the power door locks.
Enhanced Accident Response System Reset Procedure
In order to reset the Enhanced Accident Response System functions after an event,
the ignition switch must be changed from ignition START or ON/RUN to ignition OFF.
Carefully check the vehicle for fuel leaks in the engine compartment and on the
ground near the engine compartment and fuel tank before resetting the system and
starting the engine.
GETTING STARTED
21

Vehicles Equipped With Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote start, the heated seats can be programmed
to come on during a remote start.
This feature can be programmed 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 condition 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 or seatback 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.
Rear Heated Seats
On some models, the two outboard seats are equipped with heated seats. The heated
seat switches for these seats are located on the rear of the center console. There are
two heated seat switches
that allow the rear passengers to operate the seats
independently.
You can choose from HI, LO or OFF heat settings. The indicator lights in each switch
indicate the level of heat in use. Two indicator lights will illuminate for HI, one for LO
and none for OFF.
• Push the heated seat button
once to select HI-level heating.
• Push the heated seat button
a second time to select LO-level heating.
• Push the heated seat button
a third time to turn the heating elements OFF.
NOTE:
• Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be felt within two to five minutes.
• The engine must be running for the heated seats to operate.
If the HI-level setting is selected, the system will automatically switch to LO-level
after approximately 60 minutes of continuous operation. At that time, the number of
illuminated LEDs changes from two to one, indicating the change. The LO-level
setting will turn OFF automatically after approximately 45 minutes.
GETTING STARTED
38

For the first 1500 miles (2414 km):
• Do not participate in track events, sport driving schools, or similar activities duringthe first 1500 miles (2414 km).
NOTE:
Check engine oil with every refueling and add if necessary. Oil and fuel consumption
may be higher through the first oil change interval.
HEADLIGHT SWITCH
The headlight switch is located on the left side of the instrument panel, next to the
steering wheel. The headlight switch controls the operation of the headlights, parking
lights, instrument panel lights, cargo lights and fog lights (if equipped).
To turn on the headlights, rotate the
headlight switch clockwise. When the
headlight switch is on, the parking lights,
taillights, license plate light and instru-
ment panel lights are also turned on. To
turn off the headlights, rotate the head-
light switch back to the O (Off) position.
NOTE:
• Your vehicle is equipped with plastic headlight and fog light (if equipped)
lenses that are lighter and less suscep-
tible to stone breakage than glass
lights. Plastic is not as scratch resis-
tant as glass and therefore different
lens cleaning procedures must be fol-
lowed.
• To minimize the possibility of scratch- ing the lenses and reducing light out-
put, avoid wiping with a dry cloth. To
remove road dirt, wash with a mild
soap solution followed by rinsing.
CAUTION!
Do not use abrasive cleaning components, solvents, steel wool or other abrasive
materials to clean the lenses.

Automatic Headlights — If Equipped
This system automatically turns the headlights on or off according to ambient light
levels. To turn the system on, rotate the headlight switch to the A (AUTO) position.
When the system is on, the Headlight Delay feature is also on. This means the
headlights will stay on for up to 90 seconds after you turn the ignition switch to the
OFF position. To turn the automatic headlights off, turn the headlight switch out of
the AUTO position.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before the headlights will turn on in the Automatic
Mode.
Automatic High Beam — If Equipped
The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control system provides increased forward
lighting at night by automating high beam control through the use of a digital camera
mounted on 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.
NOTE:
• The Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control can be turned on or off using theUconnect System. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Understanding Your Instru-
ment Panel” in the Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further information.
• Broken, muddy, or obstructed headlights and taillights of vehicles in the field of view will cause headlights to remain on longer (closer to the vehicle). Also, dirt,
film, and other obstructions on the windshield or camera lens will cause the
system to function improperly.
• To opt out of the Advanced Auto High-Beam Sensitivity Control (default) and enter Reduced High-Beam Sensitivity Control (not recommended), toggle highbeam
lever 6 full on/off cycles within 10 seconds of ignition ON. System will return to
default setting upon ignition off.
If the windshield or Automatic High Beam Headlamp Control mirror is replaced, the
mirror must be re-aimed to ensure proper performance. See your local authorized
dealer.
Interior Lights
Courtesy and dome lights are turned on when the front doors are opened or when the
dimmer control (rotating wheel on the right side of the headlight switch) is rotated to
its farthest upward position. If your vehicle is equipped with Remote Keyless Entry
(RKE) and the UNLOCK button is pressed on the RKE transmitter the courtesy and
dome lights will turn on. When a door is open and the interior lights are on, rotating
the dimmer control all the way down, to the OFF detent, will cause all the interior
lights to go out. This is also known as the “Party” mode because it allows the doors
to stay open for extended periods of time without discharging the vehicle’s battery.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
45

The brightness of the instrument panel lighting can be regulated by rotating the
dimmer control up (brighter) or down (dimmer). When the headlights are on you can
supplement the brightness of the odometer, trip odometer, radio and overhead
console by rotating the control to its farthest position up until you hear a click. This
feature is termed the “Parade” mode and is useful when headlights are required
during the day.
TURN SIGNAL/WIPER/WASHER/HIGH BEAM LEVER
The multifunction lever is located on the left side of the steering column.
Turn Signals
Move the multifunction lever up or down and the arrows on each side of the
instrument cluster flash to show proper operation of the front and rear turn signal
lights.
NOTE:
If either light remains on and does not flash, or there is a very fast flash rate, check
for a defective outside light bulb. If an indicator fails to light when the lever is moved,
it would suggest that the indicator bulb is defective.
Lane Change Assist
Tap the lever up or down once, without moving beyond the detent, and the turn signal
(right or left) will flash three times then automatically turn off.
High/Low Beam Switch
Push the multifunction lever toward the instrument panel to switch the headlights to
high beams. Pulling the multifunction back toward the steering wheel will turn the
low beams back on, or shut the high beams off.
