58 Seats and Restraints
Warning (Continued)
The shoulder belt will not be
against your body. Instead, it will
be in front of you. In a crash, you
could go into it, receiving neck or
other injuries.
The lap belt could go up over
your abdomen. The belt forces
would be there, not at your pelvic
bones. This could cause serious
internal injuries.
For proper protection when the
vehicle is in motion, have the
seatback upright. Then sit well
back in the seat and wear the
safety belt properly.
Do not have a seatback reclined if
the vehicle is moving.
Heated Front Seats
{Warning
If you cannot feel temperature
change or pain to the skin, the
seat heater may cause burns. To
reduce the risk of burns, people
with such a condition should use
care when using the seat heater,
especially for long periods of
time. Do not place anything on

setting and one for the lowest.
The passenger seat may take
longer to heat up.
Auto Heated Seats
When the vehicle is on, this feature
will automatically activate the
heated seats at the level required by
the vehicle’ s interior temperature. In
auto mode, the AUTO text is
displayed without any indicators. Use the manual heated seat buttons
to turn auto heated seats off. Once
this feature is turned off, the auto
heated seats will be activated the
next time the vehicle is started. In
manual mode, the controls can be
accessed while the vehicle is on by
touching

If the passenger seat is unoccupied,
the auto heated seats feature will
not activate that seat.
The auto heated seats feature can
be programmed to always be
enabled when the vehicle is on. See
Vehicle Personalization 0142.
Remote Start Heated Seats
When it is cold outside, the heated
seats can be turned on
automatically during a remote
vehicle start. The heated seats will be canceled
when the vehicle is started. If the
vehicle has auto heated seats, the
seat heating level will automatically
change to the level required by the
vehicle's interior temperature when
the vehicle is on.
The temperature performance of an
unoccupied seat may be reduced.
This is normal.
The heated seats will not turn on
during a remote start unless the
heated seat feature is enabled. See
Vehicle Personalization
0142.

If you cannot feel temperature
change or pain to the skin, the
seat heater may cause burns. To
reduce the risk of burns, people
with such a condition should use
care when using the seat heater,
especially for long periods of
time. Do not place anything on

Safety Belts
This section describes how to use
safety belts properly, and some
things not to do.
{Warning
Do not let anyone ride where a
safety belt cannot be worn
properly. In a crash, if you or your
passenger(s) are not wearing
safety belts, injuries can be much
worse than if you are wearing
safety belts. You can be seriously
injured or killed by hitting things
inside the vehicle harder or by
being ejected from the vehicle. In
addition, anyone who is not
buckled up can strike other
passengers in the vehicle.
It is extremely dangerous to ride
in a cargo area, inside or outside
of a vehicle. In a collision,
passengers riding in these areas
are more likely to be seriously
injured or killed. Do not allow

82 Seats and Restraints
{Warning
Never allow more than one child
to wear the same safety belt. The
safety belt cannot properly spread
the impact forces. In a crash, they
can be crushed together and
seriously injured. A safety belt
must be used by only one person
at a time.
{Warning
Never allow a child to wear the
safety belt with the shoulder belt
behind their back. A child can be
seriously injured by not wearing
the lap-shoulder belt properly. In a
crash, the child would not be
restrained by the shoulder belt.
The child could move too far
forward increasing the chance of
head and neck injury. The child
might also slide under the lap
belt. The belt force would then be
applied right on the abdomen.
That could cause serious or fatal
injuries. The shoulder belt should
go over the shoulder and across
the chest.
Infants and Young
Children
Everyone in a vehicle needs
protection! This includes infants and
all other children. Neither the
distance traveled nor the age and
size of the traveler changes the
need, for everyone, to use safety
restraints. In fact, the law in every
state in the United States and in
every Canadian province says
children up to some age must be
restrained while in a vehicle.

108 Instruments and Controls
Auto Wipe in Reverse Gear
If the rear wiper control is off, the
rear wiper will automatically operate
continuously when the shift lever is
in R (Reverse), and the front
windshield wiper is performing low
or high speed wipes. If the rear
wiper control is off, the shift lever is
in R (Reverse), and the front
windshield wiper is performing
intermittent wipes, then the rear
wiper automatically performs
intermittent wipes.
This feature can be turned on or off.
SeeVehicle Personalization 0142.
The windshield washer reservoir is
used for the windshield and the rear
window. Check the fluid level in the
reservoir if either washer is not
working.
Compass
The vehicle has a compass display
in the instrument cluster above the
speedometer. The compass
receives its heading and other
information from the Global
Positioning System (GPS) antenna
and vehicle speed information. The compass system has automatic
calibration and zone adjustment
features.
Avoid covering the GPS antenna for
long periods of time with objects
that may interfere with the antenna's
ability to receive a satellite signal.
The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of
miles or degrees of turn before
needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. The compass system will
automatically determine when a
GPS signal is restored and provide
a heading.
Clock

are used to access the time and
date settings through the menu.

Charge Current Limit Selection
The charge current limit setting
allows the vehicle’s charge current
to be selected so it matches the
capability of the charging location.
If the vehicle consistently stops
charging after being plugged in, or if
a circuit breaker continues to trip,
reducing to a lower charge current
limit setting may resolve the issue.
The charge current limit setting
should be configured to match the
electrical current rating for the
electrical outlet that the charge cord
is connected to. On the Charge
Mode tab, change the Charge Limit
selection between:
. 12 amps
. 8 amps Exact current levels may vary from
the values shown in this manual.
Check the vehicle for the available
levels.
The charge limit can be changed
and saved using Location Based
Charging settings. The default value
is the lower current limit. The charge
current limit will reset to the lower
value when the vehicle is shifted
from P (Park) unless the Location
Based Charging feature is active
and set to retain this preference.
See
“Location Based Charging” later
in this section.
{Warning
Using a charge level that exceeds
the electrical circuit or electrical
outlet capacity may start a fire or
damage the electrical circuit. Use
the lowest charge level until a
qualified electrician inspects the
electrical circuit capacity. Use the
lowest charge level if the
electrical circuit or electrical outlet
capacity is not known. Electric Rate Preference
The vehicle estimates the charging
start time based on the utility rate
schedule, utility rate preference, and
programmed departure time for the
current day of the week. The vehicle
will charge during the least
expensive rate periods to achieve a
full battery charge by the departure
time. Electrical rate information from
the utility company for the charging
location is required for this mode.
If the selected charge mode is
Departure, then electric rate
preference selection will display.
Electric Rate Preference Selection
From the Charge Mode tab on the
Charging screen with Departure
charge mode selected, touch More
to select the Electric Rate
Preference.
