before saving memory positions.
To save preferred driving positions
1 and 2: 1. Turn the ignition on or to ACC/ ACCESSORY.
A DIC welcome message may be
displayed indicating number 1 or
2 for memory recalls.
2. Adjust all available memory features to the desired driving
position. 3. Press and release SET; a beep

Auto Memory Recall
The vehicle identifies the number of
the current driver’s RKE transmitter
(1–8). See Remote Keyless Entry (RKE)
System Operation 028. If the RKE
transmitter is 1 or 2, and Auto
Memory Recall is programmed on in
vehicle personalization, the positions
saved to the same memory button
number 1 or 2 are automatically
recalled when the ignition is turned
on, or turned from OFF to ACC/
ACCESSORY. RKE transmitters 3–8
will not provide automatic memory
recalls.

remote start if it is cold outside. The
heated and ventilated seat indicators
and heated steering wheel indicator
may not come on during this
operation.
The heated and ventilated seats and
heated steering wheel may cancel
when the vehicle is started. These
features can be manually selected
after the ignition is turned on.
The temperature performance of an
unoccupied seat may be reduced. This
is normal.
The heated or ventilated seats will not

Rear Seat Reminder
If equipped, the message REAR SEAT
REMINDER LOOK IN REAR SEAT
displays under certain conditions
indicating there may be an item or
passenger in the rear seat. Check
before exiting the vehicle.
This feature will activate when a
second row door is opened while the
vehicle is on or up to 10 minutes
before the vehicle is turned on. There
will be an alert when the vehicle is
turned off. The alert does not directly
detect objects in the rear seat; instead,
under certain conditions, it detects
when a rear door is opened and
closed, indicating that there may be
something in the rear seat.
The feature is active only once each
time the vehicle is turned on and off,
and will require reactivation by
opening and closing the second row
doors. There may be an alert even
when there is nothing in the rear seat;
for example, if a child entered the vehicle through the rear door and left
the vehicle without the vehicle being
shut off.
The feature can be turned on or off.
See
Vehicle Personalization 0148.
Rear Seat Adjustment

Heated Rear Seats
{Warning
If temperature change or pain to
the skin cannot be felt, the seat
heater may cause burns. See the
Warning underHeated and
Ventilated Front Seats 064.
If equipped, the buttons are on the
rear of the center console.
With the ignition on, press
MorLto
heat the left or right outboard seat
cushion. On vehicles without rear climate controls, an indicator light on
the button will turn on when the
heated seat is on. On vehicles with
rear climate controls, an indicator on
the climate control display appears
when this feature is on.
On vehicles without rear climate
controls but equipped with heated
rear seats, press the button again to
turn this feature off. The light on the
button will turn off. On vehicles with
rear climate controls, this feature
turns on at the highest setting. With
each press of the button, the heated
seat changes to the next lower setting,
and then the off setting. Three lights
indicate the highest setting, and one
light indicates the lowest. If the
heated seats are on high, the level
may automatically be lowered after
approximately 30 minutes.
Seat Belts
This section describes how to use seat
belts properly, and some things not
to do.
{Warning
Do not let anyone ride where a seat
belt cannot be worn properly. In a
crash, if you or your passenger(s)
are not wearing seat belts, injuries
can be much worse than if you are
wearing seat 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

Automatic Seat Belt Tightening
System
The vehicle may have the Automatic
Seat Belt Tightening System.
Each time the vehicle is started with
the front seat belts buckled, the
system activates once to tighten the
seat belts when the forward vehicle
speed exceeds the threshold for
activation.
The system also activates during
emergency braking and/or sudden
driving maneuvers and releases when
driving conditions return to normal.
The system will not activate if the
Traction Control/Electronic Stability
Control system is not functioning
properly. SeeTraction Control/
Electronic Stability Control 0205.
If there is a problem with the
Automatic Seat Belt Tightening
System, a message displays on the
Driver Information Center (DIC). If a
system unavailable message displays
repeatedly or a service message
displays, see your dealer. Other seat belt functions are not affected by the
Automatic Seat Belt Tightening
System.
Seat Belt Pretensioners
This vehicle has seat belt
pretensioners for front outboard
occupants. Although the seat belt
pretensioners cannot be seen, they are
part of the seat belt assembly. They
can help tighten the seat belts during
the early stages of a moderate to
severe frontal, near frontal, or rear
crash if the threshold conditions for
pretensioner activation are met. Seat
belt pretensioners can also help
tighten the seat belts in a side crash
or a rollover event.
Pretensioners work only once. If the
pretensioners activate in a crash, the
pretensioners and probably other
parts of the vehicle’s seat belt system
will need to be replaced. See
Replacing
Seat Belt System Parts after a Crash
0 77. Do not sit on the outboard seat belt
while entering or exiting the vehicle or
at any time while sitting in the seat.
Sitting on the seat belt can damage
the webbing and hardware.Rear Seat Belt Comfort Guides
{Warning
A seat belt that is not properly
worn may not provide the
protection needed in a crash. The
person wearing the belt could be
seriously injured. The shoulder belt
should go over the shoulder and
across the chest. These parts of the
body are best able to take belt
restraining forces.
Rear seat belt comfort guides may
provide added seat belt comfort for
older children who have outgrown
booster seats and for some adults.
When installed on a shoulder belt, the
comfort guide positions the shoulder
belt away from the neck and head.

Protection
When using an automatic car wash,
move the rear wiper control to OFF to
disable the rear wiper. In some
vehicles, if the transmission is in
N (Neutral) and the vehicle speed is
very slow, the rear wiper will
automatically park under the rear
spoiler.
The wiper operations return to normal
when the transmission is no longer in
N (Neutral) or the vehicle speed has
increased.
Auto Wipe in Reverse Gear
If the rear wiper control is off, the rear
wiper will automatically operate
continuously when the transmission is
in R (Reverse), and the front
windshield wiper is performing low or
high speed wipes. If the rear wiper
control is off, the transmission is in
R (Reverse), and the front windshield
wiper is performing INT wipes, then
the rear wiper automatically performs
INT wipes.
This feature can be turned on or off.
See
Vehicle Personalization 0148.

See Rear Camera Mirror 051. Check
the fluid level in the reservoir if either
washer is not working. See Washer
Fluid 0263.
Compass
The vehicle may have a compass
display on the Driver Information
Center (DIC). The compass receives its
heading and other information from

operate for a certain number of miles
or degrees of turn before needing a
