• The functions of the portable device are controlled using the device buttons. The volume maybe controlled using the radio or portable device.
• To route the audio cable out of the center console, use the access cut out in the front of the console.
2. USB Port
• Connect your iPod® or compatible device using a USB cable into the USB Port. USB Memory sticks with audio files can also be used. Then, audio from the device can be played on the
vehicles sound system while providing metadata (artist, track title, album, etc.) information on
the radio display.
• When connected, the iPod®/compatible USB device can be controlled using the radio or Steering Wheel Audio Controls to play, skip to the next or previous track, browse, and list the
contents.
• The iPod® battery charges when plugged into the USB port (if supported by the specific device).
• To route the USB/iPod® cable out of the center console, use the access cut out in the front of the console.
NOTE:
When connecting your iPod® device for the first time, the system may take several minutes to
read your music, depending on the number of files. For example, the system will take approxi-
mately five minutes for every 1000 songs loaded on the device. Also during the reading process,
the Shuffle and Browse functions will be disabled. This process is needed to ensure the full use of
your iPod® features and only happens the first time it is connected. After the first time, the
reading process of your iPod® will take considerably less time unless changes are made or new
songs are added to the playlist.
• The USB port supports certain Mini, Classic, Nano, Touch, and iPhone® devices. The USB port also supports playing music from compatible external USB Mass Storage Class memory
devices. Some iPod® software versions may not fully support the USB port features. Please visit
Apple’s website for iPod® software updates.
3. SD Card
• Play songs stored on an SD card inserted into the SD card slot.
• Song playback can be controlled using the radio or Steering Wheel Audio Controls to play, skip to the next or previous track, browse, and list the contents.
4. Bluetooth® Streaming Audio
• If equipped with Uconnect® Voice Command, your Bluetooth-equipped iPod® devices, cell phones or other media players, may also be able to stream music to your vehicle's sound
system. Your connected device must be Bluetooth-compatible, and paired with your
Uconnect® system (see Uconnect® Phone for pairing instructions). You can access the music
from your connected Bluetooth® device by touching the Source soft-key while in Player mode.

NOTE:
AFTER INFLATION, THE VEHICLE MAY NEED TO BE DRIVEN FOR 20 MINUTES
BEFORE THE FLASHING LIGHT WILL TURN OFF.
• Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is the driver’sresponsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination 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 operating properly. TPMS malfunction indicator is provided by a separate
telltale, which displays the symbol “TPMS” when illuminated. The TPMS malfunction indica-
tor is combined with the low tire pressure telltale.
• When the system detects a malfunction, the telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon subsequent
vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists. When the malfunction indicator is illumi-
nated, the system may not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS
malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the installation of replacement 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.
NOTE:
Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 12° F (7° C) of air temperature change.
Keep this in mind when checking tire pressure inside a garage, especially in the Winter. Example:
If garage temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the outside temperature is 32°F (0°C), then the cold
tire inflation pressure should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa), which equals 1 psi (7 kPa) for every
12°F (7°C) for this outside temperature condition.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures
and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable
system operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement equipment that is not
of the same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket wheels can cause sensor damage. Do not use
tire sealant from a can, or balance beads if your vehicle is equipped with a TPMS, as damage
to the sensors may result.
- Engine Temperature Warning Light
• This light warns of an overheated engine condition.
• If the light turns on or flashes continuously while driving, safely pull over and stop the vehicle. If the A/C system is on, turn it off. Also, shift the transmission into NEUTRAL and idle the
vehicle. If the temperature reading does not return to normal, turn the engine off immediately.
• We recommend that you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the vehicle serviced immediately.

WARNING!
• Do not attempt to change a tire on the side of the vehicle close to moving traffic. Pull farenough off the road to avoid the danger of being hit when operating the jack or changing
the wheel.
• Being under a jacked-up vehicle is dangerous. The vehicle could slip off the jack and fall on
you. You could be crushed. Never put any part of your body under a vehicle that is on a
jack.
• Never start or run the engine while the vehicle is on a jack. If you need to get under a raised
vehicle, take it to a service center where it can be raised on a lift.
• The jack is designed to be used as a tool for changing tires only. The jack should not be
used to lift the vehicle for service purposes. The vehicle should be jacked on a firm level
surface only. Avoid ice or slippery areas.
• A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger the occupants
of the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in the places provided.
• Carefully follow these tire changing warnings to help prevent personal injury or damage to
your vehicle:
• Always park on a firm, level surface as far from the edge of the roadway as possible before
raising the vehicle.
• Turn on the Hazard Warning flasher.
• Block the wheel diagonally opposite the wheel to be raised.
• Set the parking brake firmly and set an automatic transmission in PARK; a manual
transmission in REVERSE.
• Do not let anyone sit in the vehicle when it is on a jack.
• Do not get under the vehicle when it is on a jack.
• Only use the jack in the positions indicated and for lifting this vehicle during a tire change.
• If working on or near a roadway, be extremely careful of motor traffic.
• Raising the vehicle higher than necessary can make the vehicle less stable. It could slip off
the jack and hurt someone near it. Raise the vehicle only enough to remove the tire.
• To avoid the risk of forcing the vehicle off the jack, do not fully tighten the wheel nuts until
the vehicle has been lowered. Failure to follow this warning may result in personal injury.
• A loose tire or jack thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger the occupants
of the vehicle. Always stow the jack parts and the spare tire in the places provided.
• The limited-use spare tires are for emergency use only. Installation of this limited-use spare
tire affects vehicle handling. With this tire, do not drive more than 60 mph (100 km/h).
Keep inflated to the cold tire inflation pressure listed on either your tire placard or
limited-use spare tire and wheel assembly. Replace (or repair) the original tire at the first
opportunity and reinstall it on your vehicle. Failure to do so could result in loss of vehicle
control.

• Do not use TIREFIT or drive the vehicle under the following circumstances:
• If the puncture in the tire tread is approximately 1/4 in. (6 mm) or larger.
• If the tire has any sidewall damage.
• If the tire has any damage from driving with extremely low tire pressure.
• If the tire has any damage from driving on a flat tire.
• If the wheel has any damage.
• If you are unsure of the condition of the tire or the wheel.
• Keep TIREFIT away from open flames or heat source.
• A loose TIREFIT kit thrown forward in a collision or hard stop could endanger the
occupants of the vehicle. Always stow the TIREFIT kit in the place provided. Failure to
follow these warnings can result in injuries that are serious or fatal to you, your passengers,
and others around you.
• Take care not to allow the contents of TIREFIT to come in contact with hair, eyes, or
clothing. TIREFIT is harmful if inhaled, swallowed, or absorbed through the skin. It causes
skin, eye, and respiratory irritation. Flush immediately with plenty of water if there is any
contact with eyes or skin. Change clothing as soon as possible, if there is any contact with
clothing.
• TIREFIT Sealant solution contains latex. In case of an allergic reaction or rash, consult a
physician immediately. Keep TIREFIT out of reach of children. If swallowed, rinse mouth
immediately with plenty of water and drink plenty of water. Do not induce vomiting!
Consult a physician immediately.
• TIREFIT is not a permanent flat tire repair. Have the tire inspected and repaired or
replaced after using TIREFIT. Do not exceed 55 mph (88 km/h) until the tire is repaired or
replaced. Failure to follow this warning can result in injuries that are serious or fatal to you,
your passengers, and others around you.
