Easy Entry/Exit Seat
This feature provides automatic driver’s seat
positioning to enhance driver mobility when
entering and exiting the vehicle.
The distance the driver’s seat moves depends
on where you have the driver’s seat positioned
when you place the ignition in the OFF position.
When you place the ignition in the OFF posi -
tion, the driver’s seat will move about
2.4 inches (60 mm) rearward if the driver’s
seat position is greater than or equal to
2.7 inches (67.7 mm) forward of the rear
stop. The seat will return to its previously set
position when you place the ignition into the
ACC or RUN position.
When you place the ignition in the OFF posi -
tion, the driver’s seat will move to a position
0.3 inches (7.7 mm) forward of the rear stop
if the driver’s seat position is between
0.9 inches and 2.7 inches (22.7 mm and
67.7 mm) forward of the rear stop. The seat
will return to its previously set position when
you place the ignition to the ACC or RUN posi -
tion.
The Easy Entry/Easy Exit feature is disabled
when the driver’s seat position is less than
0.9 inches (22.7 mm) forward of the rear stop. At this position, there is no benefit to
the driver by moving the seat for Easy Exit or
Easy Entry.
Each stored memory setting will have an associ -
ated Easy Entry and Easy Exit position.
NOTE:
The Easy Entry/Exit feature is not enabled when
the vehicle is delivered from the factory. The
Easy Entry/Exit feature is enabled (or later
disabled) through the programmable features
in the Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” for further informa -
tion.
Heated Seats — If Equipped
On some models, the front and rear seats may
be equipped with heaters located in the seat
cushions and seat backs.Front Heated Seats
The heated seats control buttons are located on
the center instrument panel below the touch -
screen, and are also located within the climate
or controls screen of the touchscreen.
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.

Ventilated Seats — If Equipped
Front Ventilated Seats
Located in the seat cushion are small fans that
draw the air from the passenger compartment
and move air through fine perforations in the
seat cover to help keep the driver and front
passenger cooler in higher ambient tempera -
tures. The fans operate at three speeds, HI,
MED and LO.
The front ventilated seats control buttons are
located on the center instrument panel below
the touchscreen, and are also located within the
climate or controls screen of the touchscreen.
NOTE:
If the vehicle is equipped with a 12-inch radio,
there will only be control buttons through the
touchscreen.
Press the ventilated seat button once to
choose HI.
Press the ventilated seat button a second
time to choose MED.
Press the ventilated seat button a third
time to choose LO.
Press the ventilated seat button a fourth
time to turn the ventilation off.
NOTE:
The engine must be running for the ventilated
seats to operate.
Vehicles Equipped With Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote start,
the driver’s seat 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.
HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk
of injury by restricting head movement in the
event of a rear impact. Head restraints should
be adjusted so that the top of the head restraint
is located above the top of your ear. NOTE:
Do not reverse the head restraints (making the
rear of the head restraint face forward) in an
attempt to gain additional clearance to the back
of your head.
WARNING!
All occupants, including the driver, should
not operate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle’s
seat until the head restraints are placed in
their proper positions in order to minimize
the risk of neck injury in the event of a
crash.
Head restraints should never be adjusted
while the vehicle is in motion. Driving a
vehicle with the head restraints improperly
adjusted or removed could cause serious
injury or death in the event of a collision.

doors. The outside mirrors will move slightly
downward from the present position when the
vehicle is shifted into REVERSE. The outside
mirrors will then return to the original position
when the vehicle is shifted out of the REVERSE
position. Each stored memory setting will have
an associated Tilt Side Mirrors In Reverse posi -
tion.
NOTE:
The Tilt Side Mirrors In Reverse feature is not
turned on when delivered from the factory.
This feature can be programmed through the
Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect Settings”

mirrors will fold in, push the switch a second
time and the mirrors will return to the normal
driving position.
If the mirror is manually folded after electrically
cycled, a potential extra button push is required
to get the mirrors back to the home position. If

Windshield Washers
To use the windshield washer, push the washer
knob, located on the end of the multifunction
lever, inward to the second detent. Washer fluid
will be sprayed and the wiper will operate for
two to three cycles after the washer knob is
released from this position.
If the washer knob is depressed while in the
delay range, the wiper will operate for several
seconds after the washer knob is released. It
will then resume the intermittent interval previ -
ously selected. If the washer knob is pushed
while in the off position, the wiper will turn on
and cycle approximately three times after the
wash knob is released.
To prevent freeze-up of your windshield washer
system in cold weather, select a solution or
mixture that meets or exceeds the temperature
range of your climate. This rating information
can be found on most washer fluid containers.
Mist Feature
When a single wipe to clear off road mist or
spray from a passing vehicle is needed, push
the washer knob, located on the end of the
multifunction lever, inward to the first detent
and release. The wipers will cycle one time and
automatically shut off.
NOTE:
The mist feature does not activate the washer
pump; therefore, no washer fluid will be sprayed
on the windshield. The wash function must be
used in order to spray the windshield with
washer fluid.
Rain Sensing Wipers — If Equipped
This feature senses moisture on the windshield
and automatically activates the wipers for the
driver. The feature is especially useful for road
splash or overspray from the windshield
washers of the vehicle ahead. Rotate the end of
the multifunction lever to one of five settings to
activate this feature.
NOTE:
This feature can be programmed on/off through
the Uconnect system. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” for further informa -
tion.
The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted
with the multifunction lever. Wiper delay posi -
tion 1 is the least sensitive, and wiper delay
position 5 is the most sensitive. Position 3
should be used for normal rain conditions. Posi -
tions 1 and 2 can be used if the driver desires
less wiper sensitivity. Positions 4 and 5 can be
used if the driver desires more sensitivity. Place
the wiper switch in the O (off) position when not
using the system.WARNING!
Sudden loss of visibility through the
windshield could lead to a collision. You might
not see other vehicles or other obstacles. To
avoid sudden icing of the windshield during
freezing weather, warm the windshield with
the defroster before and during windshield
washer use.
