Wireless Charging
If equipped and enabled, the vehicle
has wireless charging in the center
console in front of the storage bin.
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 0481.
{Warning
Wireless charging may 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, during a Bluetooth
phone call, or when phone projection (e.g. Apple CarPlay / Android Auto) is
active. See
Retained Accessory Power
(RAP) 0250.
The operating temperature is −40 °C
(−40 °F) to 85 °C (185 °F) for the
charging system and 0 °C (32 °F) to
35 °C (95 °F) for the phone. A charging
stopped alert may be displayed on the
infotainment screen, if the wireless
charger or smartphone are outside of
normal operating temperature.
Charging will automatically resume
when a normal operating temperature
is reached.
{Warning
Remove all objects from the charger
before charging your compatible
smartphone. Objects, such as coins,
keys, rings, paper clips, or cards,
between the smartphone and
charger may 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
charger, remove the smartphone
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
and allow the object to cool before
removing it from the charger, to
prevent burns.
To charge a compatible smartphone:
1. Confirm the smartphone is capable of wireless charging.
2. Remove all objects from the charging pocket. The system may
not charge if there are any objects
between the smartphone and
charger.

3. Place the smartphone face upagainst the rear of the charger.
To maximize the charge rate,
ensure the smartphone is fully
seated and centered in the holder
with nothing under it.
A thick smartphone case may
prevent the charger from working,
or reduce the charging
performance. See your dealer for
additional information.
4. A green
]will appear on the
infotainment display, next to the
phone icon. This indicates that the
smartphone is detected.
5. If a smartphone is placed on the charger and
]turns off or turns
yellow, remove the smartphone and
any objects from the pocket. Turn
the smartphone 180 degrees and
wait a few seconds before placing/
aligning it on the pocket again. 6. If a smartphone is placed on the
charger and
]turns red, the
charger and/or the smartphone is
overheated. Remove the
smartphone and any objects from
the charger in order to cool the
system.
The smartphone may become warm
during charging. This is normal. In
warmer temperatures, the speed of
charging may be reduced.
For vehicles with wireless phone
projection, the smartphone may
overheat during wireless charging. The
smartphone may slow down, stop
charging, or shut down to protect the
battery. The phone may need to be
removed from its case to prevent
overheating. The
]may flash while
the phone is cooling down enough for
wireless charging to automatically
resume. This is normal. Individual
phone performance may vary. Software Acknowledgements

and Indicators
Warning lights and gauges can signal
that something is wrong before it
becomes serious enough to cause an
expensive repair or replacement.
Paying attention to the warning lights
and gauges could prevent injury.
Some warning lights come on briefly
when the engine is started to indicate
they are working. When one of the
warning lights comes on and stays on
while driving, or when one of the
gauges shows there may be a problem,
check the section that explains what
to do. Waiting to do repairs can be
costly and even dangerous.

vehicle is moving in either kilometers
per hour (km/h) or miles per
hour (mph). The speedometer cannot
be reset.
Speed Sign
Shows sign information, which comes
from a roadway database in the
onboard navigation, if equipped. The
sign will show
“− −”when there is no
detected speed limit or the system is
unavailable.
Speed Warning

Odometer
The odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven, in either
kilometers or miles.
Trip Odometer
The trip odometer shows how far the
vehicle has been driven since the trip
odometer was last reset.
The trip odometer is accessed and
reset through the Driver Information
Center (DIC). SeeDriver Information
Center (DIC) 0133.
Tachometer
The tachometer displays the engine
speed in revolutions per minute (rpm).
Fuel Gauge
When the ignition is on, the fuel
gauge indicates about how much fuel
is left in the tank.
There is an arrow near the fuel gauge
pointing to the side of the vehicle the
fuel door is on.
When the indicator nears empty, the
low fuel light comes on. There still is
a little fuel left, but the vehicle should
be refueled soon.
Here are three things that some
owners ask about. None of these show
a problem with the fuel gauge:
.It takes a little more, or less fuel to
fill up than the gauge indicated. For
example, the gauge may have
indicated the tank was half full, but
it actually took a little more, or less
than half the tank's capacity to fill
the tank.
.The gauge moves a little while
turning a corner, speeding up or
braking.
.The gauge takes a few seconds to
stabilize after the ignition is turned
on and goes back to empty when
the ignition is turned off.

118 INSTRUMENTS AND CONTROLS
The engine oil pressure gauge shows
the engine oil pressure
in kPa (kilopascals) or psi (pounds per
square inch) when the engine is
running.
This gauge displays on the
infotainment display. If show in
cluster is selected a digital value is
shown on the instrument cluster in
the left zone.
Oil pressure can vary with engine
speed, outside temperature, coolant
temperature, and oil viscosity.
On some models, the oil pump will
vary engine oil pressure according to
engine needs. Oil pressure may change
quickly as the engine speed or load
varies. This is normal. If the oil
pressure warning light or Driver
Information Center (DIC) message
indicates oil pressure outside the
normal operating range, check the
vehicle's oil as soon as possible.
SeeEngine Oil 0373.Caution
Lack of proper engine oil
maintenance can damage the
engine. Driving with the engine oil
low can also damage the engine.
The repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Check the
oil level as soon as possible. Add oil
if required, but if the oil level is
within the operating range and the
oil pressure is still low, have the
vehicle serviced. Always follow the
maintenance schedule for changing
engine oil.

The engine coolant temperature gauge
measures the temperature of the
vehicle's engine.
This gauge displays on the
infotainment display. If show in
cluster is selected a digital value is
shown on the instrument cluster in
the left zone.
While driving under normal operating
conditions, if the needle moves into
the red area, the engine is too hot.
Pull off the road, stop the vehicle, and
turn off the engine as soon as
possible.Transmission Temperature
Gauge
Metric
EnglishThe transmission temperature gauge
shows the transmission fluid
temperature. If the gauge is reading in
the red area and/or a message appears
in the Driver Information Center
(DIC), the vehicle must be stopped
and the cause checked. One possible
cause is a low fluid level in the
transmission.
This gauge displays on the
infotainment display. If show in
cluster is selected a digital value is
shown on the instrument cluster in
the left zone.
Caution
Do not drive the vehicle while the
transmission fluid is overheating,
or the transmission can be
damaged. This could lead to costly
repairs that would not be covered
by the warranty.
