RKE Air Suspension (Remote Lowering Of Vehicle) — If Equippedx2
• This vehicle is equipped with a feature that can lower the vehicle to a height which
will improve ease of passenger entry/exit and cargo loading/unloading. The feature
is accessed by pressing the air suspension lowering button twice on the key fob.
• When remote key fob lowering is requested the vehicle will send a series of chirps and flashes to alert the customer that the operation has begun and will continue
these alerts until it successfully lowers.
• If the feature is unable to lower the vehicle due to certain conditions not being met, the horn will chirp twice and the vehicle will not lower.
Emergency Key
Should the battery in the vehicle or the Key Fob transmitter go dead, there is an emergency
key located in the Key Fob that can be used for locking and unlocking the doors.
•To remove the emergency key, slide the button on the Key Fob with your thumb and
then pull the key out with your other hand.
WARNING!
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle. Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be severely injured or killed. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal, or the shift lever. Do not
leave the Key Fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location accessible to children,
and do not leave the ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go™
in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could start the vehicle, operate power
windows, other controls, or move the vehicle.
• Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior
heat build-up may cause them to be severely injured or killed.

as it may cause damage to the pedal controls. Pedal travel may become limited if
movement is stopped by an obstruction in the adjustable pedal's path.
WARNING!
• Tilting the steering column while the vehicle is moving is dangerous. Without a stable steering column, you could lose control of the vehicle and have a
collision. Adjust the column only while the vehicle is stopped. Be sure it is
locked before driving.
• Do not adjust the pedals while the vehicle is moving. You could lose control and
have a collision. Always adjust the pedals while the vehicle is parked.

your conversations with Roadside Assistance, Uconnect®Care or Vehicle Care,
whether such conversations are initiated through the Uconnect®Services in your
vehicle, or via a landline or mobile telephone, and may share information
obtained through such recording and monitoring in accordance with regulatory
requirements. You acknowledge, agree and consent to any recording, monitoring
or sharing of information obtained through any such call recordings.
4. Yelp® —

alarm system has been set-off. There are a number of reasons why your alarm may
have been triggered, one of which could be that your vehicle was stolen. If so,
please see the details of the Stolen Vehicle Assistance service below. When you

ment immediately to file a stolen vehicle report. Once this report has been filed,
Uconnect
®care can help locate your vehicle. The Uconnect®Care agent will ask
for the stolen vehicle report number issued by local law enforcement. Then, using
GPS technology and the built-in wireless connection within your vehicle, the
Uconnect
®Care agent will be able to locate the stolen vehicle and work with law
enforcement to help recover it. (Vehicle must be within the United States, have
network coverage and must be registered with Uconnect

After you've made your purchase, turn on your signal and connect your devices.
It's never been easier to bring your home or office with you.
Your vehicle must have a working electrical system for any of the in vehicle Uconnect®
features to operate.

Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance, and it is
the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has
not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low EVIC display.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to indicate
when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction indicator 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 each time the vehicle is restarted as long as
the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, 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 and a warning chime sounds 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.
