Voice Command Tips
•Using the complete name of a contact, as stored in your phonebook, (e.g.Call John
Doe vs.Call John) results in greater system accuracy.
•You can ‘chain’ commands together for faster results.Say “Call John Doe, mobile,” for
example.
•If you are listening to available voice command options, you do not have to listen to
the entire list.When you hear the command that you need, press the
button
on the steering wheel, wait for the beep and say your command.
Changing The Volume
•Start a dialogue by pressing the Phone button, then say a command for example
- "Help".
•Use the radio ON/OFF VOLUME rotary knob to adjust the volume to a comfortable
level while the Uconnect® system is speaking.Please note the volume setting for
Uconnect® is different than the audio system.
NOTE:
To access help, press the Uconnect® Phone
button on the steering wheel and say
"help." Touch the display or push either
orbutton and say "cancel" to
cancel the help session.

NOTE:
Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 12° F (7° C) of air tempera-
ture 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 pres-
sures 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.
BRAKE- Brake Warning Light
The Brake Warning light illuminates when there is either a system malfunction or the
parking brake is applied.If the light is on and the parking brake is not applied, it indicates
a possible brake hydraulic malfunction, brake booster problem or an Anti-Lock Brake Sys-
tem problem.
Please have your vehicle serviced immediately.
WARNING!
Driving a vehicle with the red brake light on is dangerous.Part of the brake system
may have failed.It will take longer to stop the vehicle.You could have a collision.Have
the vehicle checked immediately.
- Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL)
Certain conditions, such as a loose or missing gas cap, poor fuel quality, etc., may illumi-
nate the MIL after engine start.The vehicle should be serviced if the light stays on
through several typical driving cycles.In most situations, the vehicle will drive normally and
not require towing.
If the MIL flashes when the engine is running, serious conditions may exist that could lead
to immediate loss of power or severe catalytic converter damage.We recommend you
do not operate the vehicle.Have the vehicle serviced immediately.

IF YOUR ENGINE OVERHEATS
•In any of the following situations, you can reduce the potential for overheating by
taking the appropriate action.
•On the highways — slow down.
•In city traffic — while stopped, shift transmission into NEUTRAL, but do not increase
engine idle speed.
NOTE:
There are steps that you can take to slow down an overheat condition:
•If your air conditioner (A/C) is on, turn it off.The A/C system adds heat to the engine
cooling system and turning the A/C off can help remove this heat.
•You can also turn the Temperature control to maximum heat, the Mode control to
floor and the Fan control to high.This allows the heater core to act as a supplement
to the radiator and aids in removing heat from the engine cooling system.
•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.
CAUTION!
Driving with a hot cooling system could damage your vehicle.If the temperature gauge
reads hot, pull over and stop the vehicle.Idle the vehicle with the air conditioner
turned off until the pointer drops back into the normal range.If the pointer remains
on hot, turn the engine off immediately and call for service.
WARNING!
You or others can be badly burned by hot engine coolant (antifreeze) or steam from
your radiator.If you see or hear steam coming from under the hood, do not open the
hood until the radiator has had time to cool.Never try to open a cooling system pres-
sure cap when the radiator or coolant bottle is hot.

WARNING!
•Do not attempt to seal a tire on the side of the vehicle closest to traffic.Pull far
enough off the road to avoid the danger of being hit when using the TIREFIT kit.
•Do not use TIREFIT or drive the vehicle under the following circumstances:
•If the puncture in the tire tread is approximately 1/4”.(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, con-
sult 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.
JUMP-STARTING PROCEDURE
•If your vehicle has a discharged battery, it can be jump-started using a set of jumper
cables and a battery in another vehicle or by using a portable battery booster pack.
Jump-starting can be dangerous if done improperly so please follow the procedures in
this section carefully.
NOTE:
When using a portable battery booster pack, follow the manufacturer’s operating instruc-
tions and precautions.

EVENT DATA RECORDER (EDR)
This vehicle is equipped with an Event Data Recorder (EDR).The main purpose of an
EDR is to record, in certain crash or near crash-like situations, such as an air bag deploy-
ment or hitting a road obstacle, data that will assist in understanding how a vehicle’s sys-
tems performed.The EDR is designed to record data related to vehicle dynamics and
safety systems for a short period of time, typically 30 seconds or less.The EDR in this
vehicle is designed to record such data as:
•How various systems in your vehicle were operating.
•Whether or not the driver and passenger safety belts were buckled/fastened.
•How far (if at all) the driver was depressing the accelerator and/or brake pedal.
•How fast the vehicle was traveling.
These data can help provide a better understanding of the circumstances in which
crashes and injuries occur.
NOTE:
EDR data is recorded by your vehicle only if a non-trivial crash situation occurs; no data
is recorded by the EDR under normal driving conditions and no personal data (e.g.
name, gender, age, and crash location) is recorded.However, other parties, such as law
enforcement, could combine the EDR data with the type of personally identifying data
routinely acquired during a crash investigation.
To read data recorded by an EDR, special equipment is required, and access to the ve-
hicle or the EDR is needed.In addition to the vehicle manufacturer, other parties such as
law enforcement, that have the special equipment, can read the information if they have
access to the vehicle or the EDR.
CAP-LESS FUEL FILL FUNNEL
•The funnel for the Cap-Less Fuel System is located in the rear cargo area behind the
rear seat.If your vehicle is out of fuel and an auxiliary fuel can is needed, insert the
funnel into the filler neck and proceed to fill the vehicle.
•For more information on the Cap-Less Fuel Fill Funnel refer to “Adding Fuel” in “Oper-
ating Your Vehicle” in this manual.
