The compass system is designed to
operate for a certain number of miles
or degrees of turn before needing a
signal from the GPS satellites. When
the compass display shows CAL, drive
the vehicle for a short distance in an
open area where it can receive a GPS
signal. The compass system will
automatically determine when a GPS
signal is restored and provide a
heading again.

Wireless Charging
If equipped and enabled, 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 3 amp (15 W), as requested by
the compatible smartphone. SeeRadio
Frequency Statement 0467.
{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, or during Bluetooth
phone calls. See Retained Accessory
Power (RAP) 0248. 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 phone.
{Warning
Remove all objects from the
charging pocket before charging
your compatible smartphone.
Objects, such as coins, keys, rings,
paper clips, or cards, between the
smartphone and the charger 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 the charger,
remove the smartphone and allow
the object to cool before removing
it from the charging pocket, to
prevent burns.
To charge a compatible smartphone:
1. Remove all objects from the charging pocket. The system may
not charge if there are any objects
between the smartphone and
charging pocket.
2. With the smartphone screen facing the rear of the vehicle, slowly insert
the smartphone into the charging

with nothing under it. A thick
smartphone case may prevent the
wireless charger from working,
or may reduce the charging
performance. See your dealer for

400 VEHICLE CARE
Vehicle Placard:A label
permanently attached to a vehicle
showing the vehicle capacity
weight and the original equipment
tire size and recommended
inflation pressure. See “Tire and
Loading Information Label” under
Vehicle Load Limits 0240.
Tire Pressure
Tires need the correct amount of
air pressure to operate effectively.
{Warning
Neither tire underinflation nor
overinflation is good.
Underinflated tires, or tires that
do not have enough air, can
result in:
.Tire overloading and
overheating, which could lead
to a blowout.
.Premature or irregular wear.
.Poor handling.
.Reduced fuel economy.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
Overinflated tires, or tires that
have too much air, can result in:
.Unusual wear.
.Poor handling.
.Rough ride.
.Needless damage from road
hazards.
The Tire and Loading Information
label on the vehicle indicates the
original equipment tires and the
correct cold tire inflation
pressures. The recommended
pressure is the minimum air
pressure needed to support the
vehicle's maximum load carrying
capacity.
For additional information
regarding how much weight the
vehicle can carry, and an example
of the Tire and Loading
Information label, see Vehicle Load
Limits 0240. How the vehicle is
loaded affects vehicle handling and ride comfort. Never load the
vehicle with more weight than it
was designed to carry.
When to Check
Check the pressure of the tires
once a month or more.
Do not forget the spare tire, if the
vehicle has one. See
Full-Size Spare
Tire 0424 for additional
information.
How to Check
Use a good quality pocket-type
gauge to check tire pressure.
Proper tire inflation cannot be
determined by looking at the tire.
Check the tire inflation pressure
when the tires are cold, meaning
the vehicle has not been driven for
at least three hours or no more
than 1.6 km (1 mi).
Remove the valve cap from the
tire valve stem. Press the tire
gauge firmly onto the valve to get
a pressure measurement. If the
cold tire inflation pressure
