A frayed or torn belt could rip apart in a collision and leave you with no protection.
Inspect the belt system periodically, checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts. Damaged
parts must be replaced immediately. Do not disassemble or modify the system. Seat
belt assemblies must be replaced after a collision if they have been damaged (bent
retractor, torn webbing, etc.).
T
he seat belts for both front seating positions are equipped with pretensioning devices
that are designed to remove slack from the seat belt in the event of a collision.
A deployed pretensioner or a deployed air bag must be replaced immediately.
WARNING!
In a collision, you and your passengers can suffer much greater injuries if you are
not properly buckled up. You can strike the interior of your vehicle or other
passengers, or you can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be sure you and others
in your vehicle are buckled up properly.
SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM (SRS) — AIR
BAGS
This vehicle has Advanced Front Air Bags for both the driver and front passenger as
a supplement to the seat belt restraint systems. The driver's Advanced Front Air Bag
is mounted in the center of the steering wheel. The passenger's Advanced Front Air
Bag is mounted in the instrument panel, above the glove compartment. The words
SRS AIR BAG are embossed on the air bag covers.
Advanced Front Air Bags are designed to provide additional protection by supple-
menting the seat belts in certain frontal collisions depending on several factors,
including the severity and type of collision. Advanced Front Air Bags are not expected
to reduce the risk of injury in rear, side, or rollover collisions.
This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Side Air Bag Inflatable Curtains to
protect the driver, front and rear passengers sitting next to a window.
This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags to provide
enhanced protection to help protect an occupant during a side impact.
This vehicle is equipped with Supplemental Driver’s Side Knee Air Bag mounted in
the instrument panel below the steering column and a Knee Bolster mounted below
the glove compartment. The Supplemental Driver’s Side Knee Air Bag provides
enhanced protection and works together with the Driver Advanced Front Air Bag
during a frontal impact.
If the Air Bag Warning Light
is not on during starting, stays on, or turns on while
driving, have the vehicle serviced by an authorized service center immediately.
Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details regarding the Supple-
mental Restraint System (SRS).
GETTING STARTED

SYNC Temperature Soft-Key
• Touch the “SYNC” soft-key on the Uconnect®radio to control the driver and
passenger temperatures simultaneously. Touch the “SYNC” soft-key a second time
to control the temperatures individually.
Air Recirculation
• Use Recirculation for maximum A/C operation.
• For window defogging, turn the recirculation button off.
• If the recirculation button is pushed while in the AUTO mode, the indicator light
may flash three times to indicate the cabin air is being controlled automatically.
Heated Mirrors
The mirrors are heated to melt frost or ice. This feature is activated whenever you turn
on the rear window defroster.
PARKSENSE® FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST
ParkSense®can be enabled and disabled by pressing the ParkSense®switch located
below the climate controls, on the switch panel.
The four ParkSense
®sensors, located in the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area
behind the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can detect
obstacles from approximately 12 in (30 cm) up to 79 in (200 cm) from the rear
fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction, depending on the location, type and
orientation of the obstacle.
The six ParkSense
®sensors, located in the front fascia/bumper, monitor the area in
front of the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can detect
obstacles from approximately 12 in (30 cm) up to 47 in (120 cm) from the front
fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction, depending on the location, type and
orientation of the obstacle.
When an object is detected within 6.5 ft (2 m) behind the rear bumper while the
vehicle is in REVERSE, a warning will display in the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) and a chime will sound (when Sound and Display is selected from the
Customer Programmable Features section of the Uconnect
®System screen). As the
vehicle moves closer to the object, the chime rate will change from single 1/2 second
tone (for rear only), to slow (for rear only), to fast, to continuous.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

BLIND SPOT MONITORING
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system uses two radar-based sensors, located
inside the rear bumper fascia, to detect Highway licensable vehicles (automobiles,
trucks, motorcycles etc.) that enter the blind spot zones from the rear/front/side of
the vehicle.
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system warning light, located in the outside
mirrors, will illuminate if a vehicle moves into a blind spot zone.
The BSM system can also be configured to sound an audible (chime) alert and mute
the radio to notify you of objects that have entered the detection zones.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
POWER SUNROOF
The power sunroof switch is located on the overhead console.
Opening Sunroof
Express Open
• Press the switch rearward and release
it within one-half second. The sunroof
will fully open and stop automatically.

• Press and hold the switch rearward to
open the sunroof. Any release of the
switch will stop the movement, and the
sunroof will remain in a partially open
position until the switch is pressed
again.
Venting Sunroof
• Press and release the button and the
sunroof will open to the vent position.
This is called “Express Vent” and will
occur regardless of sunroof position. Dur-
ing Express Vent operation, any movement of the switch will stop the sunroof.

This compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the need to set the compass
manually. When the vehicle is new, the compass may appear erratic and the EVIC will
display “– –” until the compass is calibrated.
You may also calibrate the compass by completing one or more 360 degree turns (in
an area free from large metal or metallic objects) until the “– –” message displayed
in the EVIC turns off. The compass will now function normally.

Using HomeLink®
To operate, press and release the programmed HomeLink®button. Activation will
now occur for the programmed device (i.e., garage door opener, gate operator,
security system, entry door lock, home/office lighting, etc.,). The hand-held trans-
mitter of the device may also be used at any time.
WARNING!
• Your motorized door or gate will open and close while you are programming the
universal transceiver. Do not program the transceiver if people or pets are in the
path of the door or gate.
• Do not run your vehicle in a closed garage or confined area while programming
the transceiver. Exhaust gas from your vehicle contains Carbon Monoxide (CO)
which is odorless and colorless. Carbon Monoxide is poisonous when inhaled
and can cause you and others to be severely injured or killed.
POWER INVERTER
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt power inverter outlet located on the back of the center
console. This outlet can power cellular phones, electronics and other low power
devices requiring power up to 150 Watts.
NOTE:
The power inverter is designed with
built-in overload protection. If the power
rating of 150 Watts is exceeded, the
power inverter will automatically shut
down. Once the electrical device has
been removed from the outlet, the in-
verter should automatically reset. If the
power rating exceeds approximately
170 Watts, the power inverter may have
to be reset manually. To reset the inverter
manually, unplug the device and plug it in again. To avoid overloading the circuit,
check the power ratings on electrical devices prior to using the inverter.
WARNING!
To Avoid Serious Injury or Death DO NOT:
• insert any objects into the receptacles
• touch with wet hands
Close the lid when not in use. If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric
shock and failure.

10. With the transmission and transfer case in NEUTRAL, press and hold the
ENGINE START/STOP button until the engine turns off. Turning the engine off
will automatically place the transmission in PARK.
11. Press the ENGINE STOP/START button again (without pressing the brake
pedal), if needed, to turn the ignition switch to the OFF position.
12. Firmly apply the parking brake.
13. Attach the vehicle to the tow vehicle using a suitable tow bar.
14. Release the parking brake.
NOTE:
• Steps 1 through 4 are requirements that must be met before pressing the
NEUTRAL (N) button, and must continue to be met until the shift has been
completed. If any of these requirements are not met before pressing the NEUTRAL
(N) button or are no longer met during the shift, then the NEUTRAL (N) indicator
light will flash continuously until all requirements are met or until the NEUTRAL
(N) button is released.
• The ignition switch must be in the ON/RUN position for a shift to take place and
for the position indicator lights to be operable. If the ignition switch is not in the
ON/RUN position, the shift will not take place and no position indicator lights will
be on or flashing.
• A flashing NEUTRAL (N) position indicator light indicates that shift requirements
have not been met.
• If the vehicle is equipped with Quadra-Lift™ air suspension, the engine should be
started and left running for a minimum of 60 seconds (with all the doors closed)
at least once every 24 hours. This process allows the air suspension to adjust the
vehicle’s ride height to compensate for temperature effects.
WARNING!
You or others could be injured or killed if you leave the vehicle unattended with the
transfer case in the NEUTRAL (N) position without first fully engaging the parking
brake. The transfer case NEUTRAL (N) position disengages both the front and rear
driveshafts from the powertrain and will allow the vehicle to move, even if the
transmission is in PARK. The parking brake should always be applied when the
driver is not in the vehicle.
CAUTION!
It is necessary to follow these steps to be certain that the transfer case is fully in
NEUTRAL (N) before recreational towing to prevent damage to internal parts.
