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-

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

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-
