Sun Screen Extended

To lower the sun screen, gently lift the tab upward
to disengage the hooks, and feed the screen back
into the base sill.
USB/AUX CONTROL
This feature allows an external USB device to be
plugged into one of the USB ports, located in the
center stack of the instrument panel.
Plugging in a smartphone device to a USB port will
activate Android Auto™ or Apple CarPlay®
features, if equipped. For further information, refer
to “Android Auto™” or “Apple CarPlay®” in the
Uconnect Radio Instruction Manual.
NOTE:Two devices can be plugged in at the same time,
and both ports will provide charging capabilities.
Only one port can transfer data to the system at a
time. 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.
The following messages will appear 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.
Connecting AUX Or The External USB
Device
Use a connection cable to connect an external USB
device to the vehicle’s USB port, or use an auxiliary
cable to connect a device to the vehicle’s AUX port.
Both are located below the climate controls.
USB/AUX Ports

Once a device is connected to the USB port, it will
begin charging and is ready for use with the
system. Type C and Type A charge-only USB ports
can be used at the same time but cannot be used
simultaneously while playing media. When both
Type C and Type A charge-only USB ports are in use
they will be charged at a reduced rate.
NOTE:If the device’s battery completely discharges, it
may not communicate with the Uconnect system
until a minimum charge is attained. Leaving the
device connected to the USB port may charge it to
the required level.

78GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
Using This Feature
By using a USB cable to connect an external
device:
The device can be played on the vehicle’s sound
system, and provides the artist, track title, and
album information on the radio display.
NOTE:Depending on track configuration, track infor -
mation may not be present on the radio display.
The device can be controlled using the radio
buttons to play and browse the contents of the
device.
The audio device battery charges when plugged
into the USB port.
By using an auxiliary cable to connect an external
device:
The audio device can be played on the vehicle’s
sound system. The Uconnect system will not
display information related to the artist, track
title, and album information.
NOTE:When using the AUX port, the external device
cannot be controlled using the radio buttons. The
device will not charge.
For further information, refer to the Uconnect
Radio Instruction Manual.
Second And Third Row USB Ports
The second row USB ports can be used to charge
an external device.

Center Console Rear USB Ports

USB ports. If an unsupported device is plugged into
a Media USB port, a message will display on the
touchscreen that the device is not supported by
the system.
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

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL107
When load reduction is activated, the message
“Battery Saver On” or “Battery Saver Mode” will
appear in the instrument cluster.
These messages indicate the vehicle battery has a
low state of charge and continues to lose electrical
charge at a rate that the charging system cannot
sustain.
NOTE:
The charging system is independent from load
reduction. The charging system performs a diag -
nostic on the charging system continuously.
If the Battery Charge Warning Light is on it may
indicate a problem with the charging system
Ú page 109.
The electrical loads that may be switched off (if
equipped), and vehicle functions which can be
affected by load reduction:
Heated Seat/Vented Seats/Heated Wheel
Rear Defroster And Heated Mirrors
HVAC System
115 Volt AC Power Inverter System
Audio and Telematics System Loss of the battery charge may indicate one or
more of the following conditions:
The charging system cannot deliver enough
electrical power to the vehicle system because
the electrical loads are larger than the capability
of the charging system. The charging system is
still functioning properly.
Turning on all possible vehicle electrical loads
(e.g. HVAC to max settings, exterior and interior
lights, overloaded power outlets +12 Volt, 115
Volt AC, USB ports) during certain driving condi
-
tions (city driving, towing, frequent stopping,
etc.).
Installing options like additional lights, upfitter
electrical accessories, audio systems, alarms
and similar devices.
Unusual driving cycles (short trips separated by
long parking periods).
The vehicle was parked for an extended period
of time (weeks, months).
The battery was recently replaced and was not
charged completely.
The battery was discharged by an electrical load
left on when the vehicle was parked.
The battery was used for an extended period
with the engine not running to supply radio,
lights, chargers, +12 Volt portable appliances
like vacuum cleaners, game consoles and
similar devices. What to do when an electrical load reduction
action message is present (“Battery Saver On” or
“Battery Saver Mode”)
During a trip:
Reduce power to unnecessary loads if possible:
Turn off redundant lights (interior or exte
-
rior)
Check what may be plugged in to power
outlets +12 Volt, 115 Volt AC, USB ports
Check HVAC settings (blower, temperature)
Check the audio settings (volume)
After a trip:
Check if any aftermarket equipment was
installed (additional lights, upfitter electrical
accessories, audio systems, alarms) and review
specifications if any (load and Ignition Off Draw
currents).
Evaluate the latest driving cycles (distance,
driving time and parking time).
The vehicle should have service performed if
the message is still present during consecutive
trips, and if the evaluation and driving pattern of
the vehicle did not help to identify the cause.
