HEATED SEATS
Front Heated Seats — If Equipped
The front heated seats control buttons are located
in 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.
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.
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

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.

NOTE:Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be felt
within two to five minutes.
When the HI-level setting is selected, the heater
will provide a boosted heat level during the initial
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
driver and front passenger cooler in higher
ambient temperatures. The fans operate at two
speeds, HI and LO.
The front ventilated seats control buttons are
located in the touchscreen.
Press the ventilated seat button once to
choose HI.
Press the ventilated seat button a second

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.

INTRODUCING VOICE RECOGNITION
Start using Uconnect Voice Recognition (VR) with
these helpful quick tips. It provides the key Voice
Commands and tips you need to know to control
your system.
The Uconnect 5 NAV with 10.1-inch display is
equipped with Voice Recognition. If you see the
NAV icon on the bottom bar or in the Apps menus
of your 10.1-inch touchscreen, you have the
Uconnect 5 NAV system. If not, you have a
Uconnect 5 with 10.1-inch display system.
BASIC VOICE COMMANDS
The basic Voice Commands below can be given at
any point while using your Uconnect system.
Push the VR button . After the beep, say:
“Cancel ” to stop a current voice session.
“Help ” to hear a list of suggested Voice
Commands.
“ Repeat ” to listen to the system prompts again.
Notice the visual cues that inform you of your Voice
Recognition system’s status.
GET STARTED
The VR button is used to activate/deactivate
your Voice Recognition system.
Helpful hints for using Voice Recognition:
Reduce background noise. Wind noise and
passenger conversations are examples of noise
that may impact recognition.
Speak clearly at a normal pace and volume
while facing straight ahead.
Each time you give a Voice Command, first push
the VR button, wait until after the beep, then say
your Voice Command. You can also say the
vehicle “Wake Up” word and state your
command.
A passenger can press the VR button shortcut
on the radio status bar to also issue a
command.
You can interrupt the help message or system
prompts by pushing the VR button and saying a
Voice Command or saying the vehicle’s “Wake
