ELECTRICAL POWER OUTLETS
Your vehicle is equipped with 12 Volt (13 Amp)
power outlets that can be used to power cellular
phones, small electronics and other low powered
electrical accessories. The power outlets are
labeled with either a “key” or a “battery” symbol to
indicate how the outlet is powered. Power outlets
labeled with a key symbol are powered when the
ignition switch is in the ON or ACC position, while
the outlets labeled with a battery symbol are
connected directly to the battery, and are powered
at all times.
NOTE:
All accessories connected to the battery
powered outlets should be removed or turned
off when the vehicle is not in use to protect the
battery against discharge.
Do not exceed the maximum power of
160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the
160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is exceeded the
fuse protecting the system needs to be
replaced.
Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs
only. Do not insert any other object in the power
outlets as this will damage the outlet and blow
the fuse. Improper use of the power outlet can
cause damage not covered by your New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
The front power outlet is located to the right of the
climate controls.

POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt inverter outlet
located on the back of the center console to
convert DC current to AC current. This outlet can
power cellular phones, electronics and other low
power devices requiring power up to 150 Watts.
Certain video game consoles exceed this power
limit, as will most power tools.
Power Inverter
The power inverter is designed with built-in
overload protection. If the power rating of
150 Watts is exceeded, the power inverter
automatically shuts down. Once the electrical
device has been removed from the outlet the
inverter should automatically reset. To avoid
overloading the circuit, check the power ratings on
electrical devices prior to using the inverter.
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Only devices designed for use in this type of
outlet should be inserted into any 12 Volt
outlet.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use and while driving
the vehicle.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!
Many accessories that can be plugged in draw
power from the vehicle's battery, even when
not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventu
-
ally, if plugged in long enough, the vehicle's
battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the engine from
starting.
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e.,
coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will
degrade the battery even more quickly. Only
use these intermittently and with greater
caution.
After the use of high power draw accessories,
or long periods of the vehicle not being started
(with accessories still plugged in), the vehicle
must be driven a sufficient length of time to
allow the generator to recharge the vehicle's
battery.
CAUTION!
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not insert any objects into the receptacles.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.

WIRELESS CHARGING PAD —
I
F EQUIPPED

Wireless Charging Pad

Your vehicle may be equipped with a 15W 3A Qi
wireless charging pad located below the center
stack by the cupholders. This charging pad is
designed to wirelessly charge your Qi enabled
mobile phone. Qi is a standard that allows wireless
charging of your mobile phone.
Your mobile phone must be designed for Qi
wireless charging. If the phone is not equipped
with Qi wireless charging functionality, an
aftermarket sleeve or a specialized back plate can
be purchased from your mobile phone provider or
a local electronics retailer. Please see your
phone’s owner’s manual for further information. The wireless charging pad is equipped with an
anti-slip mat to hold your mobile phone in place,
and an LED indicator.
LED Indicator Status:
No Light: Charging pad is idle or searching for a
device.
Blue Light: Device is detected, and is charging.
Red Light/Flashing: Internal error, or foreign
object is detected.
NOTE:
The wireless charging pad will not work if any of
the four doors or the liftgate are open, even if
the engine is running.
Using a phone case may interfere with wireless
charging.
WINDOWS
POWER WINDOWS
The power window controls are located on the
driver's door trim panel.

Power Window Switches

The passenger door windows can also be operated
by using the single window controls on the
passenger door trim panel. The window controls
will operate only when the ignition is in the ON/
RUN or ACC position.
To open the window part way (manually), push the
switch to the first detent and release it when you
want the window to stop.
The power window controls remain active for up to
10 minutes after the ignition has been placed in
the OFF position. Opening a vehicle front door will
cancel this feature.
CAUTION!
The key fob should not be placed on the
charging pad or within 6 inches (15 cm) of it.
Doing so can cause excessive heat buildup and
damage to the fob. Placing the fob in close
proximity of the charging pad blocks the fob from
being detected by the vehicle and prevents the
vehicle from starting.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL81
The instrument cluster display is located in the
center portion of the cluster and consist of multiple
sections:
Main Screen — The inner ring of the display will
illuminate in gray under normal conditions,
yellow for non critical warnings, red for critical
warnings, and white for on demand information.
Submenu Dots — Whenever there are
submenus available, the position within the
submenus is shown here.
Reconfigurable Telltales/Information
Gear Selector Status (PRND)
Driver Interactive Display (Compass, Temp,
Range to Empty, Trip A, Trip B, Average Fuel
Economy, Current Fuel Economy, Time, Trailer
Trip and Gain)
All-Wheel Drive (AWD) Status — If Equipped The instrument cluster display will normally display
the main menu or the screens of a selected feature
of the main menu. The main display area also
displays pop-up messages that consist of
approximately 60 possible warning or information
messages. These pop-up messages fall into
several categories:
Five Second Stored Messages

When the appropriate conditions occur, this
type of message takes control of the main
display area for five seconds and then returns to
the previous screen. Most of the messages of
this type are then stored (as long as the condi-
tion that activated it remains active) and can be
reviewed from the “Messages” main menu item.
Examples of this message type are “Right Front
Turn Signal Lamp Out” and “Low Tire Pressure.”
Unstored Messages
This message type is displayed indefinitely or
until the condition that activated the message is
cleared. Examples of this message type are
“Turn Signal On” (if a turn signal is left on) and
“Lights On” (if driver leaves the vehicle with the
lights on).
Unstored Messages Until RUN
These messages deal primarily with the Remote
Start feature. This message type is displayed
until the ignition is in the RUN state. Examples of
this message type are “Remote Start Canceled -
Door Ajar” and “Press Brake Pedal and Push
Button to Start.”
Five Second Unstored Messages
When the appropriate conditions occur, this
type of message takes control of the main
display area for five seconds and then returns to
the previous screen. An example of this
message type is “Automatic High Beams On.”
