numbers, followed by “Send”, is also to be
used for navigating through an automated cus-
tomer service center menu structure, and to
leave a number on a pager.
You can also send stored Uconnect™ Phone-
book entries as tones for fast and easy access
to voice mail and pager entries. To use this
feature, dial the number you wish to call and
then press the
button and say “Send.”
The system will prompt you to enter the name or
number and say the name of the phonebook
entry you wish to send. The Uconnect™ Phone
will then send the corresponding phone num-
ber associated with the phonebook entry, as
tones over the phone.
NOTE:
• You may not hear all of the tones due to
mobile phone network configurations;
this is normal.
• Some paging and voice mail systems
have system time out settings that are too
short and may not allow the use of this
feature. Barge In - Overriding Prompts
The “Voice Command” button can be used
when you wish to skip part of a prompt and
issue your voice command immediately. For
example, if a prompt is asking “Would you like
to pair a phone, clear a
,” you could press
the
button and say, “Pair a Phone” to
select that option without having to listen to the
rest of the voice prompt.
Turning Confirmation Prompts On/Off
Turning confirmation prompts off will stop the
system from confirming your choices (e.g., the
Uconnect™ Phone will not repeat a phone
number before you dial it).
• Press the
button to begin.
• After the “Ready” prompt and the following
beep, say “Setup Confirmations”. The
Uconnect™ Phone will play the current con-
firmation prompt status and you will be given
the choice to change it.
Phone and Network Status Indicators
If available on the radio and/or on a premium
display such as the instrument panel cluster,
and supported by your mobile phone, the Uconnect™ Phone will provide notification to
inform you of your phone and network status
when you are attempting to make a phone call
using Uconnect™ Phone. The status is given
for network signal strength, phone battery
strength, etc.
Dialing Using the Mobile Phone Keypad
You can dial a phone number with your mobile
phone keypad and still use the Uconnect™
Phone (while dialing via the mobile phone
keypad, the user must exercise caution and
take precautionary safety measures). By dial-
ing a number with your paired Bluetooth
mo-
bile phone, the audio will be played through
your vehicle’s audio system. The Uconnect™
Phone will work the same as if you dial the
number using Voice Command.
NOTE:
Certain brands of mobile phones do not
send the dial ring to the Uconnect™ Phone
to play it on the vehicle audio system, so
you will not hear it. Under this situation,
after successfully dialing a number the user
may feel that the call did not go through

Front Passenger Seat Fold-Flat
Feature — If Equipped
To fold the seatback to the flat load-floor posi-
tion, lift the recline lever and push the seatback
forward. To return to the seating position, raise
the seatback and lock it into place.
Heated Seats — If EquippedOn some models, the front and rear seats may
be equipped with heaters in both the seat
cushions and seatbacks.
WARNING!
•Persons who are unable to feel pain to the
skin because of advanced age, chronic
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medi-
cation, alcohol use, exhaustion or other
physical condition must exercise care when
using the seat heater. It may cause burns
even at low temperatures, especially if
used for long periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat that
insulates against heat, such as a blanket or
cushion. This may cause the seat heater to
overheat. Sitting in a seat that has been
overheated could cause serious burns due
to the increased surface temperature of the
seat.
CAUTION!
Repeated overheating of the seat could dam-
age the heating element and/or degrade the
material of the seat. Vehicles Equipped with Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote start,
the driver’s heated seat can be programmed to
come on during a remote start. Refer to “Re-
mote Starting System — If Equipped” in
“Things to Know Before Starting Your Vehicle”
for further information.
Front Heated Seats
There are two heated seat switches that allow
the driver and passenger to operate the seats
independently. The controls for each heater are
located near the bottom center of the instru-
ment panel (below the climate controls).
You can choose from HIGH, LOW or OFF heat
settings. Amber indicator lights in each switch
indicate the level of heat in use. Two indicator
lights will illuminate for HIGH, one for LOW and
none for OFF.

sary. Rotate the end of the lever downward to
the Mist position and release for a single wiping
cycle.
Rain Sensing Wipers — If EquippedThis feature senses moisture on the windshield
and automatically activates the wipers for the
driver. The feature is especially useful for road
splash or overspray from the windshield wash-
ers of the vehicle ahead. Rotate the end of the
multifunction lever to one of four settings to
activate this feature.The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted
with the multifunction lever. Wiper delay posi-
tion 1 is the least sensitive, and wiper delay
position 4 is the most sensitive. Setting 3 should
be used for normal rain conditions. Settings 1
and 2 can be used if the driver desires less
wiper sensitivity. Settings 4 can be used if the
driver desires more sensitivity. Place the wiper
switch in the OFF position when not using the
system.
NOTE:
•
The Rain Sensing feature will not operate
when the wiper switch is in the low or
high-speed position.
• The Rain Sensing feature may not func-
tion properly when ice, or dried salt water
is present on the windshield.
• Use of Rain-X or products containing
wax or silicone may reduce Rain Sensing
performance. •
A customer programmable feature in the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) allows the Rain Sensing feature to
be turned off. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC)/Personal Set-
tings (Customer-Programmable Features)”
in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel”
for further information.

tures for the wiper blades and arms, and will
not operate under the following conditions:
• Low Ambient Temperature — When the
ignition is first turned ON, the Rain Sensing
system will not operate until the wiper switch
is moved, vehicle speed is greater than
0 mph (0 km/h), or the outside temperature is
greater than 32°F (0°C).
• Transmission in NEUTRAL Position —
When the ignition is ON, and the transmis-
sion is in the NEUTRAL position, the Rain
Sensing system will not operate until the
wiper switch is moved, vehicle speed is
greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), or the shift lever
is moved out of the NEUTRAL position.

WARNING!
• Persons who are unable to feel pain to the
skin because of advanced age, chronic
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medi-
cation, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other
physical conditions must exercise care
when using the steering wheel heater. It
may cause burns even at low tempera-
tures, especially if used for long periods.
• Do not place anything on the steering
wheel that insulates against heat, such as a
blanket or cushion. This may cause the

WARNING!
•Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a conve-
nience system. It is not a substitute for
active driving involvement. It is always the
driver’s responsibility to be attentive of
road, traffic, and weather conditions, ve-
hicle speed, distance to the vehicle ahead;
and, most importantly, brake operation to
ensure safe operation of the vehicle under
all road conditions. Your complete attention
is always required while driving to maintain
safe control of your vehicle. Failure to fol-
low these warnings can result in a collision
or serious personal injury.
• The ACC system:
Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming
vehicles, and stationary objects (i.e., a
stopped vehicle in a traffic jam or a
disabled vehicle).
Cannot take street, traffic, and weather
conditions into account, and may be
limited upon adverse sight distance con-
ditions.
(Continued)WARNING!(Continued)
Does not predict the lane curvature or
the movement of preceding vehicles and
will not compensate for such changes.
Does not always fully recognize com-
plex driving conditions, which can result
in wrong or missing distance warnings.
Can only apply a maximum of 25% of
the vehicle’s braking capability, and will
not bring the vehicle to a complete stop.
WARNING!
You should switch off the ACC system:
• When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy
snow, sleet, heavy traffic, and complex
driving situations (i.e., in highway construc-
tion zones).
• When entering a turn lane or highway off
ramp; when driving on roads that are wind-
ing, icy, snow-covered, slippery, or have
steep uphill or downhill slopes; and when
towing a trailer.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
• When circumstances do not allow safe
driving at a constant speed.
Failure to follow these warnings can result in a
collision or serious personal injury.
The Cruise Control system has two control
modes:
• Adaptive Cruise Control mode for maintain-
ing an appropriate distance between ve-
hicles.
• Normal (fixed speed) cruise control mode for
cruising at a constant preset speed. For
additional information, refer to “Normal
(Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode” in this
section. Note:The system will not react to
preceding vehicles. Always be aware of the
mode selected.
You can change the mode by using the Cruise
Control buttons. The two control modes func-
tion differently. Always confirm which mode is
selected.

A Proximity Warning will alert the driver if ACC
predicts that its maximum braking level is not
sufficient to maintain the set distance. If this
occurs, a visual alert “BRAKE” will flash in the
EVIC and a chime will sound while ACC con-
tinues to apply its maximum braking capacity.
When this occurs, you should immediately ap-
ply the brakes as needed to maintain a safe
distance from the vehicle ahead.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) MenuThe EVIC displays the current ACC system
settings. The EVIC is located in the upper part
of the instrument cluster between the speed-ometer and the tachometer. The information it
displays depends on ACC system status.
Menu Button
Press the MENU button (located
on the steering wheel) repeatedly
until one of the following displays
in the EVIC:
Adaptive Cruise Control Off When ACC is deactivated, the display willread “Adaptive Cruise Control Off.”
Adaptive Cruise Control Ready When ACC is activated but the vehiclespeed setting has not been selected, the
display will read “Adaptive Cruise Control
Ready.”
ACC SET When ACC is set, the set speed willdisplay.
The set speed will continue to display in
place of the odometer reading when
changing the EVIC display while ACC is
set. The ACC screen will display once again if any
ACC activity occurs, which may include any of
the following:
•Set Speed Change
• Distance Setting Change
• System Cancel
• Acquisition/Loss of Target
• Driver Override
• System Off
• ACC Proximity Warning
• ACC Unavailable Warning

Precautions While Driving with ACCIn certain driving situations, ACC may have
detection issues. In these cases, ACC may
brake late or unexpectedly. The driver needs to
stay alert and may need to intervene.
Adding a Trailer Hitch
The weight of a trailer hitch may affect the
performance of ACC. If there is a noticeable
change in performance following the installa-
tion of a hitch, such as reduced detection
range, please see your authorized dealer for
service.
Offset Driving
ACC may not detect a vehicle in the same lane
that is offset from your direct line of travel. There
will not be sufficient distance to the vehicle
ahead. The offset vehicle may move in and out
of the line of travel, which can cause your
vehicle to brake or accelerate unexpectedly.Turns and Bends
In turns or bends, ACC may detect a vehicle
ahead too late or too early. This may cause your
vehicle to brake late or unexpectedly. Give
extra attention in curves and be ready to apply
the brakes if necessary. Be sure to select an
appropriate speed while driving in curves.
ACC may occasionally provide braking and/or
a driver alert that you consider unnecessary.
This may be the system’s response to signs,
guardrails, and other stationary objects in a
curve. This may also occur at the base of steep
hills. This is normal operation and your vehicle
does not require service.
