Heated Front Seats
{WARNING
If you cannot feel temperature
change or pain to the skin, the
seat heater may cause burns
even at low temperatures. To
reduce the risk of burns, people
with such a condition should use
care when using the seat heater,
especially for long periods of
time. Do not place anything on
the seat that insulates against
heat, such as a blanket, cushion,
cover or similar item. This may
cause the seat heater to
overheat. An overheated seat
heater may cause a burn or may
damage the seat.
On vehicles with heated front seats,
the controls are located near the
climate controls. To operate the
heated seats the ignition must be
in ON/RUN.
Press the buttonLto heat the seat
cushion and seatback.
Press the button once for the
highest setting. With each press, the
heated seat will change to the next
lower setting, and then the off
setting. The lights indicate three for
the highest setting and one for the
lowest. The passenger seat may take
longer to heat up.
When Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
transmitter is used to remote start
the vehicle, the front heated seats
will heat to the highest setting if it is
cold outside. When the ignition is
turned on with the key the heated
seat feature turns off. Press the
button to turn the feature back on.

There are four accessory power
outlets in the following locations,
below the CD slot, inside the center
console storage, on the rear of the
center console storage, and in the
rear cargo compartment.
To use the outlets, remove the
cover. Close the outlet cover, when
not in use.
Notice:If electrical devices are
left plugged into a power outlet,
the battery may drain causing the
vehicle not to start or damage to
the battery. This would not be
covered by the vehicle warranty.
Always unplug all electrical
devices when turning off the
vehicle.
Certain electrical accessories may
not be compatible with the
accessory power outlets and could
result in blown vehicle or adapter
fuses. If you experience a problem,
see your dealer/retailer for
additional information on the
accessory power outlet. Notice:
Adding any electrical
equipment to the vehicle can
damage it or keep other
components from working as
they should. The repairs would
not be covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not use equipment
exceeding maximum amperage
rating of 20 amperes. Check with
your dealer/retailer before adding
electrical equipment.
When adding electrical equipment,
be sure to follow the installation
instructions included with the
equipment.
Notice: Improper use of the
power outlet can cause damage
not covered by the vehicle
warranty. Do not hang any type of
accessory or accessory bracket
from the plug because the power
outlets are designed for
accessory power plugs only.Warning Lights,
Gauges, and
Indicators
Warning lights come on when there
could be a problem with a vehicle
function. Some warning lights come
on briefly when the engine is started
to indicate they are working.
Gauges can indicate when there
could be a problem with a vehicle
function. Often gauges and warning
lights work together to indicate a
problem with the vehicle.
When one of the warning lights
comes on and stays on while
driving, or when one of the gauges
shows there may be a problem,
check the section that explains what
to do. Follow this manual's advice.
Waiting to do repairs can be costly
and even dangerous.
