POWER LUMBAR (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
Vehicles equipped with power driver
or passenger seats may be also be
equipped with power lumbar. The
power lumbar switch is located on the
outboard side of the power seat. Push
the switch forward to increase the
lumbar support. Push the switch rear-
ward to decrease the lumbar support.
HEATED SEATS (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
On 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 ad-
vanced age, chronic illness, diabe-
tes, spinal cord injury, medica-
tion, alcohol use, exhaustion or
other physical condition must ex-
ercise 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.
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 on
the switch bank 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.
Press the switch once to se-
lect HIGH-level heating.
Press the switch a second
time to select LOW-level
heating. Press the switch a third time
to shut the heating elements OFF.
NOTE:
Once a heat setting is selected, heat
will be felt within two to five min-
utes.
When the HIGH-level setting is se-
lected, the heater will provide a
boosted heat level during the initial
stages of operation. Then, the heat
output will drop to the normal HIGH-
level. If the HIGH-level setting is se-
lected, the system will automatically
switch to LOW-level after a maximum
of 60 minutes of continuous opera-
tion. At that time, the number of illu-
minated LEDs changes from two to
one, indicating the change. The LOW-
level setting will turn OFF automati-
cally after a maximum of 45 minutes.

Broken, muddy or obstructed
headlights and taillights of ve-
hicles in the field of view will cause
headlights to remain on longer
(closer to the vehicle). Also, dirt,
film and other obstructions on the
windshield or camera lens will
cause the system to function im-
properly.
HEADLIGHT LEVELING
SYSTEM (for versions/
markets, where provided)
Your vehicle may be
equipped with a headlight
leveling system. This sys-
tem allows the driver to
maintain proper headlight beam posi- tion with the road surface regardless
of vehicle load. The control switch is
located on the instrument panel next
to the dimmer control.
To operate, rotate the control switch
until the appropriate number, which
corresponds to the load listed on the
chart, aligns with the indicator line on
the switch.

The wipers and washers are operated
by a switch within the multifunction
lever. Rotate the end of the multifunc-
tion lever to select the desired wiper
speed.
NOTE:
Always remove any buildup of
snow that prevents the windshield
wiper blades from returning to the

MIST, FRONT WIPER AND
WASHER
Use the Mist feature when weather
conditions make occasional usage of
the wipers necessary.
Press the end of the multifunction le-
ver inward (toward the steering col-
umn) to the first detent and release for
a single wiping cycle. To use the
Washer, push on the end of the lever to
the second detent and hold while
spray is desired. If the lever is pushed
while on the intermittent setting, the
wipers will turn on and operate for
several wipe cycles after the lever is
released, and then resume the inter-
mittent interval previously selected. If
the lever is pushed while the wipers
are in the off position, the wipers will
operate several wipe cycles, then turn
off.
INTERMITTENT, LOW AND
HIGH SPEED WIPERS
Rotate the end of the lever to one of
the first five detent positions for inter-
mittent wiper operation, the sixth de-tent for low wiper operation and the
seventh detent for high wiper opera-
tion.
Use one of the five intermittent wiper
settings when weather conditions
make a single wiping cycle, with a
variable delay between cycles, desir-
able. At driving speeds above
16 km/h, the delay can be regulated
from a maximum of approximately
18 second between cycles (first de-
tent), to a cycle every one second
(fifth detent).
NOTE:
If the vehicle is moving less than
16 km/h, delay times will be
doubled.
REAR WIPER AND
WASHER
Rotating the rotary ring to the first
detent activates the rear intermittent
wipers. To activate the washers, rotate
the rotary ring fully forward and the
washers will spray until the ring is
released, and then resume the inter-
mittent interval.NOTE:
Rear window wipers function in
the intermittent wiper speed only.
WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the
windshield could lead to a collision.
You might not see other vehicles or
other obstacles. To avoid sudden ic-
ing of the windshield during freezing
weather, warm the windshield with
defroster before and during wind-
shield washer use.
RAIN SENSING WIPERS
(for versions/markets,

CAUTION!
ParkSense® is only a parking aidand it is unable to recognize every
obstacle, including small ob-
stacles. Parking curbs might be
temporarily detected or not de-
tected at all. Obstacles located
above or below the sensors will
not be detected when they are in
close proximity.
The vehicle must be driven slowly
when using ParkSense® in order
to be able to stop in time when an
obstacle is detected. It is recom-
mended that the driver looks over
his/her shoulder when using
ParkSense®.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful whenbacking up even when using the
ParkSense® Rear Park Assist
System. Always check carefully
behind your vehicle, look behind
you, and be sure to check for pe-
destrians, animals, other vehicles,
obstructions, and blind spots be-
fore backing up. You are respon-
sible for safety and must continue
to pay attention to your surround-
ings. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death.
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
Before using the ParkSense® Rear
Park Assist System, it is strongly
recommended that the ball mount
and hitch ball assembly is discon-
nected from the vehicle when the
vehicle is not used for towing.
Failure to do so can result in in-
jury or damage to vehicles or ob-
stacles because the hitch ball will
be much closer to the obstacle
than the rear fascia when the
warning display turns on the
single flashing arc and sounds the
continuous tone. Also, the sensors
could detect the ball mount and
hitch ball assembly, depending on
its size and shape, giving a false
indication that an obstacle is be-
hind the vehicle.

WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when back-
ing up even when using the
ParkView® Rear Back Up Camera.
Always check carefully behind your
vehicle, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles,
obstructions, or blind spots before
backing up. You are responsible for
the safety of your surroundings and
must continue to pay attention while
backing up. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.CAUTION!
To avoid vehicle damage,ParkView® should only be used
as a parking aid. The camera is
unable to view every obstacle or
object in your drive path.
To avoid vehicle damage, the ve-
hicle must be driven slowly when
using ParkView® to be able to
stop in time when an obstacle is
seen. It is recommended that the
driver look frequently over his/
her shoulder when using
ParkView®. NOTE:
If snow, ice, mud, or any foreign
substance builds up on the camera

Stowing the Crossbars
Reverse the procedure to stow the
crossbars, again, taking care to keep
hand clear of pivoting joint. Crossbars
are identical and can be stowed in
either rail nest. Once the crossbars are
stowed, tighten the thumb screws
completely.
NOTE:
Load should always be secured to
crossbars first, with rail tie down
loops used as additional securing
points if needed. Tie loops are in-
tended as supplementary tie down
points only. Do not use ratcheting
mechanisms with the tie loops.
CAUTION!
Check deployed crossbars fre-quently and retighten thumb
screws as necessary.
To avoid damage to the roof rack
and vehicle, do not exceed the
maximum roof rack load capacity
of 68 kg. Always distribute heavy
loads as evenly as possible and
secure the load appropriately.
To prevent damage to the roof of
your vehicle, DO NOT carry any
loads on the roof rack without the
crossbars deployed.
The load should be secured and
placed on top of the crossbars, not
directly on the roof. If it is neces-
sary to place the load on the roof,
place a blanket or other protective
layer between the load and the
roof surface.
Long loads which extend over the
windshield, such as wood panels
or surfboards, or loads with large
frontal area should be secured to
both the front and rear of the ve-
hicle.
(Continued)
CAUTION!(Continued)
Travel at reduced speeds and turn
corners carefully when carrying
large or heavy loads on the roof
rack. Wind forces, due to natural
causes or nearby truck traffic, can
add sudden upward lift to a load.
This is especially true on large flat
loads and may result in damage to
the cargo or your vehicle.WARNING!
Cargo must be securely tied before
driving your vehicle. Improperly se-
cured loads can fly off the vehicle,
particularly at high speeds, resulting
in personal injury or property dam-
age. Follow the Roof Rack Cautions
when carrying cargo on your roof
rack.

If the ABS light is on, the brake sys-
tem should be serviced as soon as
possible to restore the benefits of
Anti-Lock brakes. If the ABS light
does not turn on when the ignition
switch is turned to the ON/RUN posi-
tion, have the light inspected by an
authorized dealer.
8. Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light (for versions/
markets, where provided)Each tire, including the
spare (if provided), should
be checked monthly when
cold and inflated to the in-
flation pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle
placard or tire inflation pressure la-
bel. (If your vehicle has tires of a
different size than the size indicated
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation
pressure label, you should determine
the proper tire inflation pressure for
those tires.) As an added safety feature, your ve-
hicle has been equipped with a Tire
Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
that illuminates a low tire pressure
telltale when one or more of your tires
is significantly under-inflated. Ac-
cordingly, when the low tire pressure
telltale illuminates, you should stop
and check your tires as soon as pos-
sible, and inflate them to the proper
pressure. Driving on a significantly
under-inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure.
Under-inflation also reduces fuel effi-
ciency and tire tread life, and may
affect the vehicle’s handling and stop-
ping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a
substitute for proper tire mainte-
nance, and it is the driver’s responsi-
bility to maintain correct tire pres-
sure, even if under-inflation has not
reached the level to trigger illumina-
tion of the TPMS low tire pressure
telltale.Your vehicle has also been equipped
with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not oper-
ating properly. The TPMS malfunc-
tion indicator is combined with the
low tire pressure telltale. When the
system detects a malfunction, the tell-
tale will flash for approximately one
minute and then remain continuously
illuminated. This sequence will con-
tinue upon subsequent vehicle start-
ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is il-
luminated, the system may not be
able to detect or signal low tire pres-
sure as intended. TPMS malfunctions
may occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of replace-
ment or alternate tires or wheels on
the vehicle that prevent the TPMS
from functioning properly. Always
check the TPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing one or more tires or
wheels on your vehicle, to ensure that
the replacement or alternate tires and
wheels allow the TPMS to continue to
function properly.
