Memory Feature
Both front seats have a memory feature, which can operate in two ways:
Memory Function Option 1 — Full Seat Back And Track Fore/Aft Position Memory:
After using the EZ entry function, the seatback angle and the Track fore/aft adjuster can
both re-lock into the position they were most recently adjusted to.This is accomplished if
the seat is moved fully rearward to its last fore/aft position on the tracks before the seat
back is returned upright.
Memory Function Option 2 — Seat Back Only Memory:
After using the EZ entry function, the seat back may first be returned upright prior to
going back to the last fore/aft (memory) position on the tracks.This results in the seat
back memory being set only – The track will then be locked forward of its last set fore/
aft memory position.To then reset the fore/aft track memory feature (to reestablish
Memory Function Option 1), the seat has to be returned fully rearward to its last fore/
aft memory track position as described in Memory Function Option 1.
Heated Seats
On some models, the front driver and passenger seats may be equipped with heaters in
both the seat cushions and seatbacks.The controls for the front heated seats are located
on the center instrument panel area.
Push the switch once to turn on the
heated seats.Push the switch a second
time to shut the heating elements off.
NOTE:
Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be
felt within two to five minutes.

GETTING STARTED
36
In order to move your vehicle to the side of the road the transmission must be in NEU-
TRAL and the 12 Volt system must be functional.To place the transmission into NEU-
TRAL you must turn the ignition OFF and then back to the RUN position (cycle the igni-
tion) then push the NEUTRAL button.
NOTE:
The high voltage battery will remain disabled after an Enhanced Accident Response Event
and must be reset by your authorized dealership.
FREEING A STUCK VEHICLE
If your vehicle becomes stuck in mud, sand or snow, it can often be moved using a rock-
ing motion.Turn the steering wheel right and left to clear the area around the front
wheels.Then shift back and forth between DRIVE and REVERSE while gently pushing the
accelerator.Use the least amount of accelerator pedal pressure that will maintain the
rocking motion, without spinning the wheels.
NOTE:
Push the “ESC Off ” switch, to place the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system in “Par-
tial Off ” mode, before rocking the vehicle.Refer to “Electronic Brake Control” in “Start-
ing And Operating” on the DVD for further information.Once the vehicle has been
freed, push the “ESC Off ” switch again to restore “ESC On” mode.
CAUTION!
•When “rocking” a stuck vehicle by shifting between DRIVE and REVERSE, do not
spin the wheels faster than 15 mph (24 km/h), or drivetrain damage may result.
•Spinning the wheels too fast may lead to transmission overheating and failure.It
can also damage the tires.Do not spin the wheels above 30 mph (48 km/h) while
in gear.
WARNING!
Fast spinning tires can be dangerous.Forces generated by excessive wheel speeds may
cause damage, or even failure, of the axle and tires.A tire could explode and injure
someone.Do not spin your vehicle's wheels faster than 30 mph (48 km/h) or for lon-
ger than 30 seconds continuously without stopping when you are stuck and do not let
anyone near a spinning wheel, no matter what the speed.
