A booster seat can be used in the
left or right rear seating position if
the base of the booster seat fits
on the seat cushion and does not
extend past the front edge. If it

{Warning
Do not let anyone ride in the front
passenger seat when a
rear-facing child restraint is
installed in the right rear seating
position. To properly fit the
rear-facing child restraint, the
front seatback will need to be
tilted forward which will not allow
a passenger to sit properly in the
front outboard passenger seat.
The passenger could be seriously
injured or killed in a sudden stop
or crash.
{Warning
Do not attach a top tether to the
loop near the top of the seatback
and directly behind the seating

Extended Cab without Rear
Seats
{Warning
A child in a rear-facing child
restraint can be seriously injured
or killed if the right front
passenger airbag inflates. This is
because the back of the
rear-facing child restraint would
be very close to the inflating
airbag. A child in a forward-facing
child restraint can be seriously
injured or killed if the right front
passenger airbag inflates and the
passenger seat is in a forward
position.
Even if the passenger sensing
system has turned off the right
front passenger frontal airbag, no
system is fail-safe. No one can
guarantee that an airbag will not
deploy under some unusual
circumstance, even though it is
turned off.

Warning (Continued)
Since this vehicle does not have
a rear seat that will accommodate
a rear-facing child restraint, a
rear-facing child restraint should
not be installed in your vehicle,
even if the airbag is off.
SeePassenger Sensing System
0 65 for additional information.
The vehicle has a front outboard
passenger frontal airbag and a
passenger sensing system. The
passenger sensing system is
designed to turn off the front
passenger frontal airbag when an
infant in a rear-facing infant seat or
a small child in a forward-facing
child restraint or booster seat is
detected. See Securing Child
Restraints (With the Seat Belt in the
Rear Seat) 093 orSecuring Child
Restraints (With the Seat Belt in the
Front Seat) 099 and Passenger
Sensing System 065 for important
seat information and additional information on installing a child
restraint in the front passenger
position.
1. Put the child restraint on the right front passenger seat.
2. If the child restraint manufacturer's instructions
recommend that the top tether
be attached, attach and tighten
the top tether hook to the top
tether anchor.
2.1. Route the top tether according to your child
restraint instructions and
the following instructions:
If you are using a single
tether, raise the headrest
or head restraint and route the tether under the
headrest or head restraint
and in between the
headrest or head restraint
posts.
If you are using a dual
tether, route the tether
around the headrest or
head restraint.

be sure to follow the proper
installation instructions included with
the equipment. SeeAdd-On
Electrical Equipment 0237.
Caution
Hanging heavy equipment from
the power outlet can cause
damage not covered by the
vehicle warranty. The power
outlets are designed for
accessory power plugs only, such
as cell phone charge cords.
Wireless Charging
If equipped, the vehicle has wireless
charging in front of the center floor
console. The system operates at
145 kHz and wirelessly charges one
Qi compatible smartphone. The
power output of the system is
capable of charging at a rate up to
1 amp (5W), as requested by the
compatible smartphone. See Radio
Frequency Statement 0359.
{Warning
Wireless charging can affect the
operation of an implanted
pacemaker or other medical
devices. If you have one, it is
recommended to consult with
your doctor before using the
wireless charging system.
The vehicle must be on, in ACC/
ACCESSORY, or Retained
Accessory Power (RAP) must be
active. The wireless charging
feature may not correctly indicate
charging when the vehicle is in RAP.
See Retained Accessory Power
(RAP) 0179.
The operating temperature is −20 °C
(−4 °F) to 60 °C (140 °F) for the
charging system and 0 °C (32 °F) to
35 °C (95 °F) for the smartphone.
{Warning
Remove all objects from the
charging pad before charging
your compatible smartphone.
Objects, such as coins, keys,
rings, paper clips, or cards,
between the smartphone and
charging pad will become very
hot. On the rare occasion that the
charging system does not detect
an object, and the object gets
wedged between the smartphone
and charger, remove the
smartphone and allow the object
to cool before removing it from
the charging pad, to prevent
burns.
