There is also a second 115 Volt (400 Watts
Maximum) power inverter located on the rear of
the center console. This inverter can power cellular
phones, electronics and other low power devices
requiring power up to 400 Watts. Certain video
game consoles exceed this power limit, as will
most power tools.
All power inverters are designed with built-in
overload protection. If the power rating of
400 Watts is exceeded, the power inverter shuts
down. Once the electrical device has been
removed from the outlet the inverter should reset.
Rear Center Console Power Inverter Outlet
NOTE:400 Watts is the maximum for the inverter, not
each outlet. If three outlets are in use, 400 Watts
is shared amongst the devices plugged in. If equipped with a front bench seat, there may be
a 115 Volt (400 Watts Maximum) inverter located
to the right of the center stack, just below the
climate controls. This inverter can power cellular
phones, electronics and other low power devices
requiring power up to 400 Watts. Certain video
game consoles exceed this power limit, as will
most power tools.
Center Stack Power Inverter
To turn on the power outlet, simply plug in the
device. The outlet turns off when the device is
unplugged.
NOTE:
The Center Stack Power Inverter is only avail -
able on vehicles equipped with a front bench
seat.
The power inverter only turns on if the ignition is
in the ACC or ON/RUN position.
Due to built-in overload protection, the power
inverter shuts down if the power rating is
exceeded.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not insert any objects into the receptacles.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.

WIRELESS CHARGING PAD —
I
F EQUIPPED
Wireless Charging Pad
Your vehicle may be equipped with a 15W 3A Qi
wireless charging pad located inside of the center
console. This charging pad is designed to
wirelessly charge your Qi enabled mobile phone.
Qi is a standard that allows wireless charging of
your mobile phone.
Your mobile phone must be designed for Qi
wireless charging. If the phone is not equipped
with Qi wireless charging functionality, an
aftermarket sleeve or a specialized back plate can
be purchased from your mobile phone provider or
a local electronics retailer. Please see your
phone’s owner’s manual for further information. The wireless charging pad is equipped with an
anti-slip mat, a cradle to hold your mobile phone in
place, and an LED indicator light.
LED Indicator Status:
NOTE:Using a phone case may interfere with wireless
charging.
No Light: Charging pad is idle or searching for a
device.
Blue Light: Device is detected, and is charging.
Red Light/Flashing: Internal error, or foreign
object is detected.
NOTE:The ignition must be in the ON/RUN or START
position and all vehicle doors must be closed for
the wireless charging pad to operate.
WINDOWS
POWER WINDOWS
The window controls on the driver's door control all
the door windows.
Power Window Switches
The passenger door windows can also be operated
by using the single window controls on the
passenger door trim panel. The window controls
will operate only when the ignition is in the ACC or
ON/RUN position.
To open the window part way (manually), push the
window switch down briefly and release.
CAUTION!
The key fob should not be placed on the
charging pad or within 6 inches (15 cm) of it.
Doing so can cause excessive heat buildup and
damage to the fob. Placing the fob in close
proximity of the charging pad blocks the fob from
being detected by the vehicle and prevents the
vehicle from starting.

WIND BUFFETING
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception
of pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in
the ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting
with the windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped)
in certain open or partially open positions. This is a
normal occurrence and can be minimized. If the
buffeting occurs with the rear windows open, open
the front and rear windows together to minimize the
buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the sunroof
open, adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the
buffeting or open any window.

SOS Call — If Equipped
Access To Emergency Services At The Push Of A
Button
SiriusXM Guardian™ In-Vehicle Assistance
Features
With SiriusXM Guardian™, your vehicle has
onboard assistance features located on the
rearview mirror or overhead console designed to
enhance your driving experience if you should ever
need assistance or support.
Description
SOS Call offers a convenient way to get in contact
with a SiriusXM Guardian™ Customer Care agent
in the event of an emergency. When the
connection between the vehicle and the live agent
is made, your vehicle will automatically transmit
location information. In the event of a minor
collision, medical or any other emergency, press
the SOS button to be connected to a call center
agent who can send emergency assistance to your
vehicle’s location.NOTE:Certain SiriusXM Guardian™ connected services
are dependent on an operational Uconnect
system, cellular network availability that is
compatible with the device in your vehicle, and
GPS network availability. Not all features of
SiriusXM Guardian™ are available everywhere at
all times, particularly in remote or enclosed areas.
How It Works
1. Push the SOS Call button; the indicator light will turn green indicating a call has been
placed.
NOTE:
In case the SOS Call button is accidentally
pushed, there is a 10-second delay before
the SOS call is placed. The system will
verbally alert you that a call is about to be
made. To cancel the SOS Call connection,
push the SOS Call button on the rearview
mirror or overhead console or press the
Cancel button on the touchscreen within 10
seconds.
During an SOS Call, the Bluetooth®-paired
phone is disconnected so incoming or
outgoing calls will go through your mobile
device versus the hands-free system which
is not available due to the SOS Call.
WARNING!
Some SiriusXM Guardian™ connected services,
including SOS Call and Roadside Assistance
Call, will NOT work without a network connection
compatible with your device.

Examples of improper front passenger seating
include:
The front passenger’s weight is transferred to
another part of the vehicle (like the door, arm
rest or instrument panel).
The front passenger leans forward, sideways, or
turns to face the rear of the vehicle.
The front passenger’s seatback is not in the full
upright position.
The front passenger carries or holds an object
while seated (e.g., backpack, box, etc.).
Objects are lodged under the front passenger
seat.

on the front passenger seat are attached to the
front passenger seat.
Anything that may decrease or increase the
front passenger’s seated weight.
The OCS determines the front passenger’s most
probable classification. If an occupant in the front
passenger seat is seated improperly, the occupant
may provide an output signal to the OCS that is
different from the occupant’s properly seated
weight input, for example:
Not Seated Properly
