within two to five minutes.
The engine must be running for the heated 
seats to operate.
For information on use with the Remote Start 
system, see  Ú page 21.
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.

WARNING!
Persons who are unable to feel pain to the 
skin because of advanced age, chronic illness, 
diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication, 
alcohol use, exhaustion or other physical 
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 seatback 
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 over -
heated could cause serious burns due to the 
increased surface temperature of the seat.

stages of operation. Then, the heat output will drop 
to the normal HI-level. The level of heat selected 
will stay on until the operator changes it.
VENTILATED SEATS — IF EQUIPPED
Located in the first row seat cushions 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

handles are built into the seatbacks of the second 
row rear seats, and if equipped, the backs of the 
front row seats. The floor supports the partial 
weight of the bagged goods.
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.
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.

For information on wiper care and replacement, 
see  Ú page 337.
RAIN SENSING WIPERS — IF EQUIPPED
This feature senses rain or snowfall on the 
windshield and automatically activates the wipers. 
Rotate the end of the windshield wiper lever to one 
of the four detent positions to activate this feature.
The sensitivity of the system is adjustable from the 
windshield wiper lever. Wiper sensitivity position 
1 is the least sensitive, and wiper sensitivity 
position 4 is the most sensitive.
NOTE:
The Rain Sensing feature will not operate when 
the wiper switch is in the low or high position.
The Rain Sensing feature may not function prop -
erly when ice or dried saltwater is present on the 
windshield.
Use of Rain-X or products containing wax or sili-
cone may reduce rain sensor performance.
The Rain Sensing feature can be turned on and 
off through the Uconnect system  Ú page 189.
The Rain Sensing system has protective features 
for the wiper blades and arms. It will not operate 
under the following conditions:
Low Temperature Wipe Inhibit  — The Rain 
Sensing feature will not operate when the igni -
tion is first placed in the ON position, when the 
vehicle is stationary and the outside tempera -
ture is below 32°F (0°C), unless the wiper 
control on the windshield wiper lever is moved, 
the vehicle speed becomes greater than 3 mph 
(5 km/h) or the outside temperature rises 
above freezing.
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 the Remote Start 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 conditions 
(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.
