Clock
Set the time and date using
the infotainment system. See
"Time/Date" under Settings
0205.
Power Outlets
The accessory power outlet
can be used to plug in
electrical equipment, such as a
cell phone or MP3 player.
The vehicle has two accessory
power outlets: one on the
lower center floor console and
one in the rear cargo area. Lift the cover to access the
accessory power outlet.
Certain accessory power
plugs may not be compatible
with the accessory power
outlet and could overload
vehicle or adapter fuses. If a
problem is experienced, see
your dealer.
When adding electrical
equipment, be sure to follow
the proper installation
instructions included with the
equipment. See Add-On
Electrical Equipment
0336.
Caution
Hanging heavy equipment
from the power outlet can
cause damage not covered
by the vehicle warranty. The
power outlets are designed
for accessory power plugs
only, such as cell phone
charge cords. Always unplug electrical
equipment when not in use
and do not plug in equipment
that exceeds the maximum
15 amps rating.
Wireless Charging
If equipped and enabled, the
vehicle has wireless charging
in the storage under the
armrest. 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. See Radio
Frequency Statement
0452.
{Warning
Wireless charging may
affect the operation of an
implanted pacemaker or
other medical devices. If you
have one, it is recommended

Warning (Continued)
to consult with your doctor
before using the wireless
charging system.
The vehicle must be on, in
accessory mode, 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) 0258.
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 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 up against 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

inflate without a crash. To
help avoid injury, have the
vehicle serviced right away.
If there is a problem with the
airbag system, a Driver
Information Center (DIC)
message may also come on.
Passenger Airbag
Status Indicator
The vehicle has a passenger
sensing system. See
Passenger Sensing System
0 75 for important safety
information. The overhead
console has a passenger
airbag status indicator.
When the vehicle is started,
the passenger airbag status
indicator will light ON and OFF,
or the symbol for on and off,
for several seconds as a
system check. Then, after
several more seconds, the
status indicator will light either
ON or OFF, or either the on or
off symbol, to let you know the
status of the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag.
If the word ON, or the on
symbol, is lit on the passenger
airbag status indicator, it
means that the front outboard
passenger frontal airbag is
allowed to inflate.
If the word OFF, or the off
symbol, is lit on the passenger
airbag status indicator, it
means that the passenger
sensing system has turned off
the front outboard passenger
frontal airbag.
If, after several seconds, both
status indicator lights remain
on, or if there are no lights at
all, there may be a problem with the lights or the
passenger sensing system.
See your dealer for service.
{Warning
If the airbag readiness light
ever comes on and stays on,
it means that something may
be wrong with the airbag
system. To help avoid injury
to yourself or others, have
the vehicle serviced right
away. See Airbag Readiness
Light
0127 for more
information, including
important safety
information.

The charging system light
comes on briefly when the
ignition is turned on, but the
engine is not running, as a
check to show the light is
working. It should go out when
the engine is started.
If the light stays on, or comes
on while driving, there may be
a problem with the electrical
charging system. Have it
checked by your dealer.
Driving while this light is on
could drain the battery.
When this light comes on, or is
flashing, the Driver Information
Center (DIC) also displays a
message.
If a short distance must be
driven with the light on, be
sure to turn off all
accessories, such as the radio
and air conditioner. Find a safe
place to stop the vehicle.Malfunction Indicator
Lamp (Check Engine
Light)
This light is part of the
vehicle’s emission control
on-board diagnostic system.
If this light is on while the
engine is running, a
malfunction has been
detected and the vehicle may
require service. The light
should come on to show that it
is working when the ignition is
in Service Mode. See Ignition
Positions0252.
Malfunctions are often
indicated by the system
before any problem is
noticeable. Being aware of the
light and seeking service
promptly when it comes on
may prevent damage.
Caution
If the vehicle is driven
continually with this light on,
the emission control system
may not work as well, the
fuel economy may be lower,
and the vehicle may not run
smoothly. This could lead to
costly repairs that might not
be covered by the vehicle
warranty.
Caution
Modifications to the engine,
transmission, exhaust,
intake, or fuel system, or the
use of replacement tires
that do not meet the original
tire specifications, can cause
this light to come on. This
could lead to costly repairs
not covered by the vehicle
warranty. This could also
affect the vehicle’s ability to
pass an Emissions
