For example, if a device is plugged into the Type A USB port
and another device is plugged into the Type C USB port, a
message will appear and allow you to select which device
to use. Different scenarios are listed here when a non-phone
device is plugged into the smaller and larger USB ports,
and when a phone device is plugged into the smaller and
larger USB ports:
“A new device is now connected. Previous connection
was lost.”
“(Phone Name) now connected. Previous connection
was lost.”
“Another device is in use through the same USB port.
Please disconnect the first device to use the second
device.”
Plugging in a phone or another USB device may cause the
connection to a previous device to be lost.

POWER OUTLETS — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be 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 Instrument Panel Power Outlet is located in the
storage compartment under the climate control buttons. It
will only operate when the ignition is in the ON/RUN
position.
Power Outlet
NOTE:
Do not connect devices, with a power rating higher than
180 W, to the outlet. Do not use power adapters that
do not fit the outlet as this may damage it.
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.
If equipped, a power outlet is located in the rear cargo
area.
Rear Cargo Area Power Outlet — If Equipped
NOTE:
The rear cargo area power outlet can be switched from
ignition powered to battery powered. See an authorized
dealer for details.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE53
Your vehicle may also be equipped with a power outlet on
the back of the center console.
Rear Center Console Power Outlet — If Equipped
Power outlets labeled with a key symbol are powered
when the ignition is in the ON/RUN position.
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, within the
storage compartment. 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.
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!
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.
Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power
from the vehicle's battery, even when not in use (i.e.,
cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long
enough, the vehicle's battery will discharge suffi -
ciently 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 intermit -
tently and with greater caution.
After the use of high power draw accessories, or long
periods of the vehicle not being started (with acces -
sories still plugged in), the vehicle must be driven a
sufficient length of time to allow the generator to
recharge the vehicle's battery.

trim panel. The window controls will operate only when the
ignition is in the ON/RUN position.
To open the window part way, push the window switch
down briefly and release it when you want the window
to stop.
NOTE:
The power window switches will remain active for up to
three minutes after the ignition is placed in the OFF
position. Opening either front door will cancel this
feature.
The power windows may be operated from outside of
the vehicle by using the key fob. For more information,
see
Úpage 14.
AUTOMATIC WINDOW FEATURES

NITIALIZATION
If power supply is interrupted, the electric window
automatic operation must be reinitialized.
To perform the initialization procedure, which must be
done on each door with the doors closed, manually fully
close the window to be initialized.
WARNING!
Never leave children unattended in a vehicle. Do not
leave the key fob in or near the vehicle or in a location
accessible to children, and do not leave the ignition of a
vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ in the ON/
RUN position. Occupants, particularly unattended
children, can become entrapped by the windows while
operating the power window switches. Such
entrapment may result in serious injury or death.
WARNING!
There is no anti-pinch protection when the window is
almost closed. To avoid personal injury be sure to clear
your arms, hands, fingers and all objects from the
window path before closing.

WIND BUFFETING
Wind buffeting can be described as the perception of
pressure on the ears or a helicopter-type sound in the
ears. Your vehicle may exhibit wind buffeting with the
windows down, or the sunroof (if equipped) in certain open
or partially open positions. This is a normal occurrence and can be minimized. If the buffeting occurs with the rear
windows open, open the front and rear windows together
to minimize the buffeting. If the buffeting occurs with the
sunroof open, adjust the sunroof opening to minimize the
buffeting or open any window.
POWER SUNROOF — IF EQUIPPED
The power sunroof and power sunshade switches are
located between the sun visors on the overhead console.
Power Sunroof Switches
NOTE:
Operation of the sunroof is only possible with the

WARNING!
Never leave children unattended in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Never leave the key
fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location accessible
to children. Do not leave the ignition of a vehicle
equipped with Keyless Enter ‘n Go™ in the ON/RUN
position. Occupants, particularly unattended chil -
dren, can become entrapped by the power sunroof
while operating the power sunroof switch. Such
entrapment may result in serious injury or death.
In a collision, there is a greater risk of being thrown
from a vehicle with an open sunroof. You could also
be seriously injured or killed. Always fasten your seat
belt properly and make sure all passengers are also
properly secured.
Do not allow small children to operate the sunroof.
Never allow your fingers, other body parts, or any
object, to project through the sunroof opening. Injury
may result.
Do not use the sunroof and its related parts for
supporting and/or grabbing purposes. Serious
personal injury may result to fingers and other body
parts as well as damage to the sunroof.
