Rear Seats
Rear Seat Reminder
If equipped, the message
REAR SEAT REMINDER LOOK
IN REAR SEAT displays under
certain conditions indicating
there may be an item or
passenger in the rear seat.
Check before exiting the
vehicle. This feature will activate when
a second row door is opened
while the vehicle is on or up to
10 minutes before the vehicle
is turned on. There will be an
alert when the vehicle is
turned off. The alert does not
directly detect objects in the
rear seat; instead, under
certain conditions, it detects
when a rear door is opened
and closed, indicating that
there may be something in the
rear seat.
The feature is active only once
each time the vehicle is turned
on and off, and will require
reactivation by opening and
closing the second row doors.
There may be an alert even
when there is nothing in the
rear seat; for example, if a
child entered the vehicle
through the rear door and left
the vehicle without the vehicle
being shut off.
The feature can be turned on
or off. Select Settings >
Vehicle > Rear Seat
Reminder > ON or OFF.

the seat belts. Always

return them to their normal
stowed position before

P (Park) will be delayed once
for each time the vehicle is
started.
For some fleet vehicles, the
feature is always ON and
cannot be turned OFF in the
infotainment system. The
vehicle will be delayed from
shifting from P (Park) each
time the driver attempts to do
so while the driver seat belt is
not buckled. Turning the
vehicle off then on will not
change this condition.
On some models, Buckle to
Drive may also delay shifting
out of P (Park) if a front
passenger seat belt is
unbuckled. A message displays
in the DIC. Buckle the front
passenger seat belt to shift
out of P (Park). This feature
may delay the vehicle from
shifting out of P (Park) if an
object, such as a briefcase,
handbag, grocery bag, laptop,
or other electronic device, is
on the front passenger seat.
If this happens, remove theobject from the seat or buckle
the seat belt to shift out of
P (Park).
If the driver, or on some
vehicles, the present front
passenger remains unbuckled,
the DIC message will turn off
after several seconds and the
vehicle can be shifted out of
P (Park). See
“Seat Belts”and
“Child Restraints” in the Index
for information about the
importance of proper
restraint use.
If the driver seat belt or the
front passenger seat belt is
unbuckled when driving, the
seat belt reminder chime and
light(s) will come on. See Seat
Belt Reminders 0115. This
feature may not function
properly if the airbag
readiness light is on. See

Lap-Shoulder Belt
All seating positions in the
vehicle have a
lap-shoulder belt.
If you are using a rear seating
position with a detachable
seat belt and the seat belt is
not attached, see Rear Seats
047 for instructions on
reconnecting the seat belt to
the mini-buckle.
The following instructions
explain how to wear a
lap-shoulder belt properly.
1. If the seat has a seat belt guide, the seat belt must
be routed through the
guide to properly position
the shoulder belt. If the
seat belt is not routed
through the guide, slide
the edge of the belt
webbing through the
opening on the guide. Be
sure the belt is not twisted. 2. Adjust the seat, if the seat
is adjustable, so you can sit
up straight. To see how,
see “Seats” in the Index.
3. Pick up the latch plate and
pull the belt across you. Do
not let it get twisted.
The lap-shoulder belt may
lock if you pull the belt
across you very quickly.
If this happens, let the belt
go back slightly to unlock
it. Then pull the belt across
you more slowly. If the shoulder portion of a
passenger belt is pulled
out all the way, the child
restraint locking feature
may be engaged. See Child
Restraint Systems
077.
If this occurs, let the belt
go back all the way and
start again. If the locking
feature stays engaged
after letting the belt go
back to stowed position on
the seat, move the seat
rearward or recline the
seat until the shoulder belt
retractor lock releases.
Engaging the child
restraint locking feature in
the front outboard seating
position may affect the
passenger sensing system.
See Passenger Sensing
System 066.
If the shoulder portion of
the driver belt is pulled out
all the way, the shoulder
belt retractor lock feature
may be engaged. If this
happens, let the belt go
back all the way and start
