Heated seats (if equipped)
WARNING:Persons who are unable to feel pain to the skin
because of advanced age, chronic illness, diabetes, spinal cord
injury, medication, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other physical
conditions, must exercise care when using the seat heater. The seat
heater 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, because this may
cause the seat heater to overheat. Do not puncture the seat with pins,
needles, or other pointed objects because this may damage the heating
element which may cause the seat heater to overheat. An overheated
seat may cause serious personal injury.
Note:Do not do the following:
•Place heavy objects on the seat
•Operate the seat heater if water or any other liquid is spilled on the
seat. Allow the seat to dry thoroughly.
The heated seat control is located on the driver’s or front passenger’s door.
To operate the heated seats:
•Press the indicated side of the
control for maximum heat.
•Press again to deactivate.
•Press the indicated side of the
control for minimum heat.
•Press again to deactivate.
The heated seat module resets at every ignition run cycle. While the
ignition is in the on position, activating the high or low heated seat
switch enables heating mode. When activated, they will turn off
automatically when the ignition is turned to the off position.
The indicator light will illuminate when the heated seats have been activated.

3.Ammunition –The safest location for ammunition is the forward
package shelf and on the side shelves. It is recommended that a plastic
storage container be utilized and mounted using theTrunk Mounting
Equipment Guidefor proper fastener locations. It is also recommended
that ammunition remain in the purchased container and be placed in a
safe storage container.
Low risk items –These items are soft in feel and pose a low risk of
trunk wall, rear seat area, and fuel tank puncture. Examples are: a soft
camera case, biohazard kit in plastic boxes, gloves, safety rope, tow
strap, traffic cones & sleeves, rain gear, riot gear (soft), emergency
blankets, bullet resistant vest, tie straps, cloth tape, garment bags, first
responder kit, Res-Q-Flo mask (placed in garment bag), fuses (plastic
container), briefcase, notebooks, spray bottles, helmet, and jumper
cables. It is not essential but recommended that the Trunk Pack™ can
be considered for organization of low risk items, especially if mixed with
“Carry With Caution”items.
BODY
Fire suppression system (if equipped)
Your vehicle may be equipped with an optional fire suppression system.
The fire suppression system is designed to help reduce the risk of injury
in high-speed rear impacts. The fire suppression system deploys
chemicals designed to slow the spread of fire or potentially extinguish a
fire, thereby providing more time for occupants to escape from a crashed
vehicle.
The fire suppression system is mounted beneath the vehicle and
attached to the frame above and forward of the fuel tank and rear axle.
The fire system control module is mounted inside the passenger
compartment centered underneath the rear seat cushion. The system is
designed to deploy automatically after sensing a high-speed/high-energy
rear end impact.
There is a covered manual activation switch mounted in a console on the
headliner between the visors that can be used by vehicle occupants to
manually deploy the system. The fire suppression system can be
manually deployed any time the key or engine is turned on by pushing
the button underneath the cover. The button can be accessed three
ways:
1. Pushing on the cover will release the cover latch, allowing the door to
swing open and expose the button;
2. The cover can be pulled open;

WARNING:Do not place objects or mount equipment in front of
the airbag module cover or in front of the seat areas that may
come in contact with a deploying airbag. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury.
WARNING:Dash, tunnel or console-mounted equipment should
not be placed outside of the specified zone. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in personal injury.
WARNING:Do not mount equipment between the side of front
seat to the door trim to block deployment of the side airbag.
Failure to follow this instruction could result in personal injury.
Some approximate dimensions for airbags, at full inflation, are provided
in Figures 1 through 5. These dimensions are somewhat flexible and
represent “free form” deployments without the loading of occupants. The
shaded areas in Figures 6 through 8 represent available police equipment
mounting zones. These zones are shown for police vehicles equipped
with standard bucket seats. While bench seats are optional and still
appropriate for vehicles with certain limited police equipment
requirements, the standard bucket seats are recommended for vehicles
that require maximum available space for police equipment mounting.
The zone dimensions provided in Figures 6 through 8 are approximate
and will vary with the loading of occupants in the seats.
All airbag and equipment mounting zone dimensions are approximate
due to different airbag deployment characteristics.
No equipment will mount between the side of the front seat and the
door trim to block deployment of the side airbag.
