1. Press the lock button to lock all the
doors.
2. Press the remote start button twice. The
exterior lamps flash twice.A tone sounds if the system fails to start.
Note: You must press each button within
three seconds of each other. If you do not
follow this sequence, your vehicle does not
start remotely, the direction indicators do
not flash twice and the horn does not sound.
Note:Press the push button ignition switch
on the instrument panel as you apply the
brake pedal before driving your vehicle.
The power windows do not work during
remote start and the radio does not turn on.
The parking lamps remain on and your
vehicle runs for 5, 10 or 15 minutes,
depending on the setting.
Extending the Engine Running Time
To extend the engine running time duration
of your vehicle during remote start, repeat
steps 1 and 2 while the engine is running. If
the duration is set to 15 minutes, the duration
extends by another 15 minutes. For example,
if your vehicle had been running from the
first remote start for 5 minutes, your vehicle
continues to run now for a total of 30
minutes. You can extend the engine running
time duration to a maximum of 30 minutes.

WHAT IS THE WIRELESS
ACCESSORY CHARGER
The wireless accessory charger allows you
to charge one compatible Qi wireless
charging device on the charging area.
WIRELESS ACCESSORY CHARGER
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Wireless charging
devices can affect the operation of
implanted medical devices, including
cardiac pacemakers. If you have any
implanted medical devices, we recommend
that you consult with your physician.
Keep the charging area clean and remove
foreign objects prior to charging a device.Do not place items with a magnetic strip or
radio-frequency identification chip, for
example passports, parking tickets,
transportation passes or credit cards, near
the charging area when charging a device.
Damage could occur to the magnetic strip
or radio-frequency identification chip.
Do not place metal objects, for example
remote controls, coins and candy wrappers,
on or near the charging area when charging
a device. Metal objects may heat up and
degrade the charging performance, in
addition to causing interruptions in charging.
Charging could be interrupted, degraded, or
could stop if any of the following occur:
• The system detects a foreign object.
• The device is misaligned on the charging
area.
• The device moves on the active charging
area when the vehicle is in motion.
• The vehicle ambient temperature is too
high.
• You attempt to charge a non-Qi
compatible device on the wireless
charger.Note:During charging, the device and the
charger could heat up, this is normal. If the
battery gets hotter than usual, the device
may stop charging.
LOCATING THE WIRELESS
ACCESSORY CHARGER
E297549
The charging area is on the center
console or in the media bin below
the instrument panel.
CHARGING A WIRELESS DEVICE
Place the device on the center of the
charging surface with the charging side
down. The charging stops after your device
reaches a full charge.
You can use the charger when the vehicle
is in accessory mode, when the vehicle is
running, or when SYNC is on.

AUTO-START-STOP - EXCLUDING:
PLUG-IN HYBRID ELECTRIC
VEHICLE (PHEV)
The system helps reduce fuel consumption
by automatically stopping and restarting the
engine when your vehicle has stopped. The
engine restarts automatically when you
release the brake pedal.
In some situations, your vehicle may restart
automatically, for example:
• To maintain interior comfort.
• To recharge the battery.
Note:Power assist steering turns off when
the engine is off.
Note:If your vehicle is flex fuel capable,
Auto-Start-Stop will be inhibited for a short
time after a refuel event while the system is
verifying the fuel type being used.
WARNING: Apply the parking brake,
shift into park (P), switch the ignition off
and remove the key before you leave your
vehicle. Failure to follow this instruction
could result in personal injury or death.
WARNING: Apply the parking brake,
shift into park (P), switch the ignition off
and remove the key before you open the
hood or have any service or repair work
completed. If you do not switch the ignition
off, the engine could restart at any time.
Failure to follow this instruction could result
in personal injury or death.
WARNING: The system may require
the engine to automatically restart when
the auto-start-stop indicator illuminates
green or flashes amber. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in personal
injury.
The Auto-Start-Stop system status is
available at a glance within the information
display. See Information Displays (page
136).
Enabling Auto-Start-Stop
The system automatically enables every time
you start your vehicle if:
• Your vehicle exceeds an initial speed of
3 mph (5 km/h) after you have initially
started your vehicle.
• You have stopped your vehicle.
• Your foot is on the brake pedal.
• The driver door is closed.
• The interior compartment has cooled or
warmed to an acceptable level.
• The front windshield defroster is off.
• You have not turned the steering wheel
rapidly or you do not have it at a sharp
angle.
• The vehicle is not on a steep road grade.
• The battery is within optimal operating
conditions (battery state of charge and
temperature in range).
• The engine coolant is near operating
temperature.
• Elevation is below about 12,000 ft
(3,650 m).
• Ambient temperature is moderate.

Unique Driving Characteristics

Note:Make sure the electrical source meets
the requirements for the high-voltage
batteries to charge.
Make sure that the dual-voltage charging
cord is completely unwrapped before
charging. Always plug the cord into the AC
outlet before connecting the charged coupler
into the charge port on your vehicle.
Note:If the power indicator light is off after
plugging in the dual-voltage charging cord
and you cannot determine a charge status,
use a different outlet.
Note:Store the dual-voltage charging cord
in a clean dry place between the
temperature of -40–158°F (-40–70°C)
Note:For further information on the
dual-voltage charging cord, please refer to
the user manual provided with the
dual-voltage charging cord.Charge Port
The charge port is between the front
left-hand side door and the front left-hand
wheel well. To open, press the center right
edge of the charge port door, and then
release.
E295258
Note: Do not force the charge port door
open or closed. Forcing the door open or
closed damages the charge port.
The charge status indicator around the
charge port indicates the charge status of
the high voltage battery in your vehicle.Divided into five zones, the charge status
indicator displays the state of charge in 20
percent increments.
We use the color white as a courtesy light to
help with plugging in and to acknowledge
actions such as plugging in, unplugging or
pressing the charge times button.
Blue is used when you plug the vehicle in
and are either charging or waiting to charge.
Orange indicates charge faults.
Charge Times Button
Use the charge times button to either turn
off or turn on your charge times settings for
this location. Select charge settings on the
home page of your touchscreen or under the
vehicle settings menu to access charge
preferences. See SYNC™ 3 (page 507).

Charging
E306676To charge the high-voltage battery:
1. Put the vehicle in park (P).
2. Press the center right edge of the charge
port door and then release to open the
door.
3. Plug the charging coupler into the charge
port receptacle on your vehicle. Make
sure the button clicks confirming that you
have completely engaged the coupler.Note:Put your vehicle in park (P) to charge,
and for the charge status indicator to
illuminate.
Note:Pump and fan noise could be present
when charging the high voltage battery. The
pump and fan noise is normal as it circulates
liquid and keeps your high voltage battery
cool while charging.

4. Verify that the cord acknowledgment
feature activates. This indicates the
beginning of a normal charge cycle. The
charge status indicator lights up each
zone alternately from bottom to top and
from bottom to top again.5. If using a charging station, follow the
instructions on the charge station to
begin the charging process.
The charge status indicator displays how far
along the charge is:
• When the bottom zone is pulsing, the
charge is between 0-20 percent.
• When the bottom zone illuminates and
the next is pulsing, the charge is between
20-40 percent.
• When two zones illuminate and the next
is pulsing, the charge is between 40-60
percent.
• When three zones illuminate and the next
is pulsing, the charge is between 60-80
percent.
• When four zones illuminate and the top
zone is pulsing, the charge is between
80-100 percent.
• When all zones illuminate, the charge is
100 percent.
