All of the key fobs provided with your new 
vehicle have been programmed to the vehicle 
electronics.
Key Programming 
Key fob programming is performed at an 
authorized dealer.
Replacement Keys  
NOTE:
Only key fobs that are programmed to the 
vehicle electronics can be used to start and 
operate the vehicle. Once a key fob is 
programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be 
programmed to any other vehicle. NOTE:
Duplication of key fobs may be performed at an 
authorized dealer. This procedure consists of 
programming a blank key fob to the vehicle 
electronics. A blank key fob is one that has 
never been programmed.
When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer 
System serviced, bring all vehicle keys with you 
to an authorized dealer.

Heated Seats
Front Heated Seats — If Equipped
The front heated seats control buttons are 
located within the climate or controls screen of 
the touchscreen.
You can choose from HI, LO or off heat settings. 
The indicator lights in each switch indicate the 
level of heat in use. Two indicator lights will 
illuminate for HI, one for LO and none for off.
Press the heated seat button   once to turn 
the HI setting on.
Press the heated seat button   a second 
time to turn the LO setting on.
Press the heated seat button   a third time 
to turn the heating elements off.
The level of heat selected will stay on until the 
operator changes it.
NOTE:
Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be 
felt within two to five minutes.
The engine must be running for the heated 
seats to operate. Vehicles Equipped With Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote start, 
the heated seats can be programmed to come 
on during a remote start.
This feature can be programmed through the 
Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” 
in “Multimedia” for further information.
Rear Heated Seats — If Equipped
On some models, the second row seats are 
equipped with heaters. There are two heated 
seat switches that allow the second row 
passengers to operate the seats independently. 
The heated seat switches are located on the 
sliding side door handle trim panels.
Second Row Heated Seat Switch
You can choose from HI, LO or off heat settings. 
Amber indicator lights in each switch indicate 
the level of heat in use. Two indicator lights will 
illuminate for HI, one for LO and none for off.
Push the switch once to select HI-level heating. 
Push the switch a second time to select LO-level 
heating. Push the switch a third time to shut the 
heating elements off.
WARNING!
Persons who are unable to feel pain to the 
skin because of advanced age, chronic 
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury, medica -
tion, alcohol use, exhaustion or other phys -
ical condition must exercise care when 
using the seat heater. It may cause burns 
even at low temperatures, especially if 
used for long periods of time.
Do not place anything on the seat or seat -
back that insulates against heat, such as a 
blanket or cushion. This may cause the seat 
heater to overheat. Sitting in a seat that has 
been overheated could cause serious 
burns due to the increased surface 
temperature of the seat.

Neutral Wipe Inhibit — The Rain Sensing 
feature will not operate when the ignition is 
ON, when the transmission gear selector is in 
the NEUTRAL position and the vehicle speed 
is less than 3 mph (5 km/h), unless the wiper 
control on the windshield wiper lever is 
moved, the vehicle speed is greater than 
3 mph (5 km/h) or the gear selector is moved 
out of the NEUTRAL position.
Remote Start Mode Inhibit  — On vehicles 
equipped with Remote Starting system, Rain 
Sensing wipers are not operational when the 
vehicle is in the remote start mode. Once the 
operator is in the vehicle and has placed the 
ignition switch in the ON/RUN position, rain 
sensing wiper operation can resume, if it has 
been selected, and no other inhibit condi -
tions (mentioned previously) exist.
Rear Wiper And Washer
Rear Window Wiper Operation
Rotate the windshield wiper lever center ring 
upwards to operate one of two modes for the 
rear window wiper:
First detent — intermittent mode.
Second detent — continuous mode.
Rear Window Washer Operation
Pushing the windshield wiper lever forward 
activates the rear window washer. If the lever is 
pushed while on the intermittent setting, the 
wipers will turn on and operate for several wipe 
cycles after the lever is released, and then 
resume the intermittent interval previously 
selected. If the lever is pushed while the wipers 
are in the off position, the wipers will operate 
several wipe cycles, then turn off.

IN CASE OF EMERGENCY337
JUMP STARTING
If your vehicle has a discharged battery it can be 
jump started using a set of jumper cables and a 
battery in another vehicle or by using a portable 
battery booster pack. Jump starting can be 
dangerous if done improperly so please follow 
the procedures in this section carefully.
NOTE:
When using a portable battery booster pack 
follow the manufacturer’s operating instruc -
tions and precautions.
Preparations For Jump Start
The battery in your vehicle is located on the left 
side of the engine compartment.
Remote Positive Post
Remote Negative Post
 1. Apply the parking brake, shift the 
automatic transmission into PARK (P) and 
place the ignition to OFF.
2. Turn off the heater, radio, and all  unnecessary electrical accessories.
3. If using another vehicle to jump start the  battery, park the vehicle within the jumper 
cables reach, set the parking brake and 
make sure the ignition is OFF.
WARNING!
Do not attempt jump starting if the battery is 
frozen. It could rupture or explode and cause 
personal injury.
CAUTION!
Do not use a portable battery booster pack or 
any other booster source with a system 
voltage greater than 12 Volts or damage to 
the battery, starter motor, alternator or 
electrical system may occur.
WARNING!
Take care to avoid the radiator cooling fan 
whenever the hood is raised. It can start 
anytime the ignition switch is ON. You can 
be injured by moving fan blades.
Remove any metal jewelry such as rings, 
watch bands and bracelets that could 
make an inadvertent electrical contact. You 
could be seriously injured.
Batteries contain sulfuric acid that can 
burn your skin or eyes and generate 
hydrogen gas which is flammable and 
explosive. Keep open flames or sparks 
away from the battery.

Jump Starting Procedure
Connecting The Jumper Cables
1. Connect the positive 
(+) end of the jumper 
cable to the remote positive  (+)
 post of the 
vehicle with the discharged battery.
2. Connect the opposite end of the positive  (+) 
jumper cable to the positive  (+) post of the 
booster battery. 3. Connect the negative 
(-) end of the jumper 
cable to the negative  (-) post of the booster 
battery.
4. Connect the opposite end of the negative  (-) 
jumper cable to the remote negative post 
near the windshield cowl (exposed metal 
part of the discharged vehicle’s engine).
5. Start the engine in the vehicle that has the  booster battery, let the engine idle a few 
minutes, and then start the engine in the 
vehicle with the discharged battery.
6. Once the engine is started, remove the  jumper cables in the reverse sequence. Disconnecting The Jumper Cables
1. Disconnect the negative 
(-)
 end of the jumper 
cable from the remote negative post of the 
vehicle with the discharged battery.
2. Disconnect the opposite end of the negative  (-) jumper cable from the negative  (-) post of 
the booster battery.
3. Disconnect the positive  (+) end of the 
jumper cable from the positive  (+) post of 
the booster battery.
4. Disconnect the opposite end of the positive  (+) 
jumper cable from the remote positive (+)  post 
of the vehicle with the discharged battery.
If frequent jump starting is required to start your 
vehicle you should have the battery and charging 
system inspected at an authorized dealer.
WARNING!
Do not allow vehicles to touch each other as 
this could establish a ground connection and 
personal injury could result.
WARNING!
Failure to follow this jump starting procedure 
could result in personal injury or property 
damage due to battery explosion.
CAUTION!
Failure to follow these procedures could 
result in damage to the charging system of 
the booster vehicle or the discharged vehicle.
WARNING!
Do not connect the jumper cable to the 
negative (-) post of the discharged battery. The 
resulting electrical spark could cause the 
battery to explode and could result in personal 
injury. Only use the specific ground point, do 
not use any other exposed metal parts.
CAUTION!
Accessories plugged into the vehicle power 
outlets draw power from the vehicle’s battery, 
even when not in use (i.e., cellular devices, 
etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough 
without engine operation, the vehicle’s battery 
will discharge sufficiently to degrade battery 
life and/or prevent the engine from starting.
