screen, this feature can be programmed

“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” in the
Owner’s Manual for further information.

screen, this feature can be programmed

To Know Your Instrument Panel” in the Own-
er’s Manual for further information.
HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to reduce the
risk of injury by restricting head movement in
the event of a rear impact. Head restraints
should be adjusted so that the top of the head
restraint is located above the top of your ear.
WARNING!
• All occupants, including the driver,should not operate a vehicle or sit in a
vehicle’s seat until the head restraints
are placed in their proper positions in
order to minimize the risk of neck injury
in the event of a crash.
• Head restraints should never be ad-
justed while the vehicle is in motion.
Driving a vehicle with the head restraints
improperly adjusted or removed could
cause serious injury or death in the event
of a collision.
Front Head Restraint Adjustment
To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the
head restraint. To lower the head restraint,
push the adjustment button located on the
base of the head restraint and push down-
ward on the head restraint. NOTE:
Do not reposition the head restraint 180 de-
grees to the incorrect position in an attempt
to gain additional clearance to the back of the
head.

This feature can be programmed through the
Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect Set-
tings” in “Multimedia” in the Owner’s
Manual for further information.
WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain tothe skin because of advanced age,
chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord in-
jury, 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.
DRIVER ADJUSTABLE PEDALS — IF
EQUIPPED
The adjustable pedals system is designed to
allow a greater range of driver comfort for
steering wheel tilt and seat position. This
feature allows the brake, accelerator, and
clutch pedals (if equipped) to move toward or
away from the driver to provide improved
position with the steering wheel.
The adjustable pedal switch is located to the
left side of the steering column.
• The pedals can be adjusted with the igni-
tion OFF.
• The pedals cannotbe adjusted when the
vehicle is in REVERSE or when the Speed
Control System is on. The following mes-
sages will appear on vehicles equipped with
an instrument cluster display if the pedals
are attempted to be adjusted when the
system is locked out: “Adjustable Pedal
Disabled — Cruise Control Engaged” or
“Adjustable Pedal Disabled — Vehicle In
Reverse”. NOTE:
• Always adjust the pedals to a position that
allows full pedal travel.
• Further small adjustments may be neces- sary to find the best possible seat/pedal
position.
• For vehicles equipped with Driver Memory Seat, you can use your remote keyless entry
key fob or the memory switch on the driver’s
door trim panel to return the adjustable
pedals to pre-programmed positions. Refer
to “Driver Memory Seat” in “Getting To
Know Your Vehicle” for further information.
WARNING!
Do not adjust the pedals while the vehicle
is moving. You could lose control and have
an accident. Always adjust the pedals
while the vehicle is parked.
CAUTION!
Do not place any article under the adjust-
able pedals or impede its ability to move,
as it may cause damage to the pedal con-
