The power lumbar switch is located on the
outboard side of the power seat. Push the switch
forward to increase the lumbar support. Push the
switch rearward to decrease the lumbar support.

Lumbar Control Switch

Easy Entry/Exit Seat — If Equipped
This feature provides automatic driver’s seat
positioning to enhance driver mobility when
entering and exiting the vehicle.
The distance the driver’s seat moves depends on
where you have the driver’s seat positioned when
you place the vehicle’s ignition in the OFF position.
When you place the vehicle’s ignition in the OFF
position, the driver’s seat will move about
2.4 inches (6 cm) rearward if the driver’s seat position is greater than or equal to 2.7 inches
(6.77 cm) forward of the rear stop. The seat will
return to its previously set position when you
place the ignition into the ACC or ON/RUN posi
-
tion.
When you remove the key fob from the ignition,
the driver’s seat will move to a position
0.3 inches (0.77 cm) forward of the rear stop if
the driver’s seat position is between 0.9 inches
and 2.7 inches (2.27 cm and 6.77 cm) forward
of the rear stop. The seat will return to its previ -
ously set position when you place the ignition to
the ACC or ON/RUN position.
The Easy Entry/Easy Exit feature is disabled
when the driver’s seat position is less than
0.9 inches (2.27 cm) forward of the rear stop. At
this position, there is no benefit to the driver by
moving the seat for Easy Exit or Easy Entry.
When enabled in Uconnect Settings, Easy Entry
and Easy Exit positions are stored in each memory
setting profile Ú page 30.
NOTE:The Easy Entry/Exit feature is enabled or disabled
through the programmable features in the
Uconnect system Ú page 199.
HEATED SEATS — IF EQUIPPED
On some models, the front and rear seats may be
equipped with heaters located in the seat cushions
and seatbacks.
WARNING!
Persons who are unable to feel pain to the
skin because of advanced age, chronic illness,
diabetes, spinal cord injury, medication,
alcohol use, exhaustion or other physical
condition must exercise care when using the
seat heater. It may cause burns even at low
temperatures, especially if used for long
periods of time.
Do not place anything on the seat or seatback
that insulates against heat, such as a blanket
or cushion. This may cause the seat heater to
overheat. Sitting in a seat that has been over -
heated could cause serious burns due to the
increased surface temperature of the seat.
