side door trim panel.

Power Mirror Controls

The power mirror controls consist of mirror select
buttons and a four-way mirror control switch. To
adjust a mirror, push the mirror select button for
the mirror that you want to adjust. Using the mirror
control switch, push on any of the four arrows for

F EQUIPPED
The power folding mirrors can be folded rearward
and unfolded into the normal driving position.
The switch for the power folding mirrors is located
between the power mirror switches L (left) and
R (right). Push the switch once and the mirrors will
fold in, push the switch a second time and the
mirrors will return to the normal driving position.
If the mirror is manually folded after a powered
cycle, a potential extra button push is required to
get the mirrors back to the normal driving position. If the mirror does not fold automatically, check for
ice or dirt buildup at the pivot area, which can
cause excessive drag.

Power Folding Mirror Switch

Resetting The Power Folding Outside Mirrors
You may need to reset the power folding mirrors if
the following occurs:The mirrors are accidentally blocked while
folding.
The mirrors are accidentally manually folded/
unfolded (by hand or by pushing the power
folding mirror switch).
The mirrors come out of the unfolded position.
The mirrors shake and vibrate at normal driving
speeds.

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.

NOTE:The power window switches will remain active for
up to 10 minutes after the ignition is placed in the
OFF position. Opening either front door will cancel
this feature. The time is programmable within
Uconnect Settings Úpage 234.
AUTOMATIC WINDOW FEATURES
Auto-Down Feature
The driver and front passenger door power window
switches have an Auto-Down feature. Push the
window switch down for a short period of time,
then release, and the window will go down
automatically. To stop the window from going all the way down
during the Auto-Down operation, pull up or push
down on the switch briefly.
Auto-Up Feature With Anti-Pinch Protection
Lift the window switch up for a short period of time
and release; the window will go up automatically.
To stop the window from going all the way up
during the Auto-Up operation, push down on the
switch briefly.
To close the window part way, lift the window
switch briefly and release it when you want the
window to stop.
If the window runs into any obstacle during
auto-closure, it will reverse direction and then go
back down. Remove the obstacle and use the
window switch again to close the window.
NOTE:Any impact due to rough road conditions may
trigger the auto-reverse function unexpectedly
during auto-closure. If this happens, pull the switch
lightly and hold to close the window manually.
RESET AUTO-UP
Should the Auto-Up feature stop working, the
window probably needs to be reset. To reset
Auto-Up:

1. Pull the window switch up to close the window
completely and continue to hold the switch up
for an additional two seconds after the
window is closed.

2. Push the window switch down firmly to open the window completely and continue to hold
the switch down for an additional two seconds
after the window is fully open.
WARNING!
Never leave children unattended in a vehicle. Do
not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle or in
a location accessible to children, and do not
leave the Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ Ignition in the
ACC or ON/RUN position. Occupants, particularly
unattended children, can become entrapped by
the windows while operating the power window
switches. Such entrapment may result in serious
injury or death.
WARNING!
There is no anti-pinch protection when the
window is almost closed. To avoid personal
injury be sure to clear your arms, hands, fingers
and all objects from the window path before
closing.

indicator system. The “Oil Change Required”
message will display in the instrument cluster
display for five seconds after a single chime has
sounded, to indicate the next scheduled oil change
interval. The engine oil change indicator system is
duty cycle based, which means the engine oil

your personal driving style.
Unless reset, this message will continue to display
each time you place the ignition in the ON/RUN
position. To turn off the message temporarily, push
and release the OK or arrow buttons. To reset the

are not met a pop-up message of “To reset oil
life engine must be off with ignition in run” will
be displayed (for five seconds), and the user
will remain at the Oil Life screen.
5. Push and release the up or down arrow
button to exit the submenu screen.
NOTE:If the indicator message illuminates when you start
