WARNING!
are designed to open only when the air
bags are inflating.
• Relying on the air bags alone could lead
to more severe injuries in a collision. The
air bags work with your seat belt to
restrain you properly. In some collisions,
air bags won’t deploy at all. Always wear
your seat belts even though you have air
bags.
Front Air Bag Operation
Front Air Bags are designed to provide addi-
tional protection by supplementing the seat
belts. Front air bags are not expected to
reduce the risk of injury in rear, side, or
rollover collisions. The front air bags will not
deploy in all frontal collisions, including
some that may produce substantial vehicle
damage — for example, some pole collisions,
truck underrides, and angle offset collisions.
On the other hand, depending on the type
and location of impact, front air bags may
deploy in crashes with little vehicle front-end
damage but that produce a severe initial
deceleration. Because air bag sensors measure vehicle
deceleration over time, vehicle speed and
damage by themselves are not good indica-
tors of whether or not an air bag should have
deployed.
Seat belts are necessary for your protection in
all collisions, and also are needed to help
keep you in position, away from an inflating
air bag.
When the ORC detects a collision requiring
the front air bags, it signals the inflator units.
A large quantity of non-toxic gas is generated
to inflate the front air bags.
The steering wheel hub trim cover and the
upper right side of the instrument panel
separate and fold out of the way as the air
bags inflate to their full size. The front air
bags fully inflate in less time than it takes to
blink your eyes. The front air bags then
quickly deflate while helping to restrain the
driver and front passenger.
Knee Impact Bolsters
The Knee Impact Bolsters help protect the
knees of the driver and front passenger, and
position the front occupants for improved
interaction with the front air bags.
WARNING!
• Do not drill, cut, or tamper with the knee
impact bolsters in any way.
• Do not mount any accessories to the
knee impact bolsters such as alarm
lights, stereos, citizen band radios, etc.
Supplemental Side Air Bags
Supplemental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags
(SABs) — If Equipped
Your vehicle may be equipped with Supple-
mental Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SABs).
If your vehicle is equipped with Supplemen-
tal Seat-Mounted Side Air Bags (SABs),
please refer to the information below.

• If you are using the native Uconnect navi-gation system, and you try and start a new
route using CarPlay, via voice or any other
method, a pop-up will appear asking if you
would like to switch from Uconnect naviga-
tion to iPhone navigation. A pop-up will
also appear, asking if you’d like to switch, if
an CarPlay navigation is currently in use
and you attempt to launch a native
Uconnect route. Selecting “Yes” will switch
the navigation type to the newly used
method of navigation and a route will be
planned for the new destination. If “No” is
selected the navigation type will remain
unchanged.Apps

button again or press the “Cancel” button
shown on the touchscreen. After ten sec-
onds has passed, the SOS call will be

a SOS Call operator has been made. The
green LED light will turn off once the SOS
Call is terminated. Have an authorized
dealer service the vehicle if the rearview
mirror light is continuously red. On
equipped vehicles, this feature requires a
functioning electrical system, a subscrip-
tion, and an operable network connection. If a connection is made between a SOS Call
operator and your vehicle, you understand
and agree that SOS Call operators will stay
on the line, even after you connect with
emergency services. The Emergency ser-
vices operator may, like any other emer-
gency call, record conversations and
sounds in and near your vehicle upon
connection.
