located below the steering wheel at the end of the
steering column.
Telescoping Control Handle
To unlock the steering column, pull the control
handle up. To lengthen or shorten the steering
column, pull the steering wheel outward or push it

Seat Adjustment (Without Swivel Seat)
WARNING!
Do not adjust the steering column while driving.
Adjusting the steering column while driving or
driving with the steering column unlocked, could
cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle.
Failure to follow this warning may result in
serious injury or death.
WARNING!
It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside
or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people
riding in these areas are more likely to be seri -
ously injured or killed.
Do not allow people to ride in any area of your
vehicle that is not equipped with seats and
seat belts. In a collision, people riding in these
areas are more likely to be seriously injured or
killed.

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.

NOTE:If the headlight delay function is disabled in the
Uconnect Setting, when you put the ignition in the
OFF position with the multifunction lever already
set in the headlight position, the headlights remain
on for 8 minutes.
FOG LIGHTS — IF EQUIPPED
The fog light switch is located on the instrument
panel to the left of the steering column.
To activate the front fog lights, turn on the
parking lights or the low beam headlights
and push the fog light button. To turn off
the front fog lights, push the fog light
button a second time or turn off the headlight
switch. An indicator light in the instrument cluster

headlights will turn off the fog lights.
If the vehicle’s ignition is turned off, the fog lights
will also turn off. Cornering Lights
The cornering lights are a feature to improve visibility at
night while turning the vehicle. When activated, a light
incorporated in the front fog light will illuminate on the
side of the vehicle the steering wheel is rotated or the
turn signal indicator is on. It can be activated through
the Uconnect system
Ú
page 120.
TURN SIGNALS
Move the multifunction lever up or down and the
arrows on each side of the instrument cluster will
flash to show proper operation of the front and rear
turn signals.
NOTE:When the Daytime Running Lights are on and a
turn signal is activated, the Daytime Running Lamp
will turn off on the side of the vehicle in which the
turn signal is flashing. The Daytime Running Lamp
will turn back on when the turn signal is turned off.
If either light remains on and does not flash, or
there is a very fast flash rate, check for a defective
outside light bulb.
LANE CHANGE ASSIST

without moving beyond the detent, and the turn
signal will flash five times then automatically
turn off.

WIPERS AND WASHERS
The windshield wiper/washer lever is located on
the right side of the steering column. There are
five different modes of operation for the front
windshield wipers. The windshield wiper lever can
be raised or lowered to access the modes.
NOTE:The windshield wipers/washers will only operate
with the ignition in the ON/RUN position.
Windshield Wiper/Washer Lever
WINDSHIELD WIPER OPERATION
Rotate the windshield wiper knob to one of the first
two detent positions for intermittent settings, the
third detent for low wiper operation and the fourth
for high wiper operation.
Windshield Washers
To use the washer, pull the windshield wiper/
washer lever toward the steering wheel to activate.
The wipers will activate automatically for three
cycles after the lever is released, and then resume
the intermittent interval previously selected.
If the lever is pulled while in the off position, the wipers
will operate for three cycles and then turn off.
Mist
Use the Mist feature when weather conditions
make occasional usage of the wipers necessary.
Push the lever upward to the MIST position and
release for a single wiping cycle.
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.
For information on wiper care and replacement,
see Úpage 207.
RAIN SENSING WIPERS — IF EQUIPPED
This feature senses moisture on the windshield
and automatically activates the wipers. Rotate the
end of the multifunction lever to one of two detent
positions for intermittent settings to activate this
feature.
NOTE:If the windshield wiper lever is rotated from the
O (off) position to the first intermittent setting or
from the first intermittent setting to the second
intermittent setting, the wipers will perform an
immediate wipe cycle to clean the windshield.
The sensitivity of the system can be adjusted with
the windshield wiper lever. Wiper delay position
one is the least sensitive, and wiper delay position
two is the most sensitive. Place the wiper switch in
the O (off) position when not using the system.
1 — Pull Back For Front Washer
2 — Rotate For Intermittent Settings
3 — Push Upward For MistWARNING!
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.
