the driver’s heated seat and heated steering
wheel can be programmed to come on during a
remote start. Refer to “Remote 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 instrument
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.

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 minutes.
When the HIGH-level setting is selected, the
heater will provide a boosted heat level during
the first four minutes of operation. Then, the
heat output will drop to the normal HIGH-level. If
the HIGH-level setting is selected, the system
will automatically switch to LOW-level after ap-
proximately 60 minutes of continuous opera-
tion. At that time, the number of illuminated
LEDs changes from two to one, indicating the
change. The LOW-level setting will turn OFF
automatically after approximately 45 minutes.
Rear Heated Seats

equipped with heated seats. There are two
heated seat switches that allow the rear pas-
sengers to operate the seats independently.

lights will illuminate for HIGH, one for LOW and
none for OFF.

RADIO OPERATION AND
MOBILE PHONES
Under certain conditions, the mobile phone
being on in your vehicle can cause erratic or
noisy performance from your radio. This condi-
tion may be lessened or eliminated by relocat-
ing the mobile phone antenna. This condition is
not harmful to the radio. If your radio perfor-
mance does not satisfactorily “clear” by the
repositioning of the antenna, it is recommended
that the radio volume be turned down or off
during mobile phone operation when not using
Uconnect® (if equipped).
