Door Locks
{Warning
Unlocked doors can be dangerous.
.Passengers, especially children, can
easily open the doors and fall out of a
moving vehicle. The doors can be
unlocked and opened while the vehicle
is moving. The chance of being thrown
out of the vehicle in a crash is
increased if the doors are not locked.
So, all passengers should wear seat
belts properly and the doors should be
locked whenever the vehicle is driven.
.Young children who get into unlocked
vehicles may be unable to get out.
A child can be overcome by extreme
heat and can suffer permanent injuries
or even death from heat stroke.
Always lock the vehicle whenever
leaving it.
.Outsiders can easily enter through an
unlocked door when you slow down
or stop the vehicle. Locking the doors
can help prevent this from happening.

Midgate Lowered with Crossbar Attached
This procedure works the same as the
procedure described previously, but when
you lower the midgate with the rear glass
in the stored position, you will notice that
the entire crossbar will lower with the
midgate. This is completely normal;
however, since the crossbar lowers with the
midgate, it will be heavier. As you lower the
midgate be ready for the extra weight and
do not let the midgate fall as you lower it.
Raising the Midgate
To return the midgate to its normal
position:
1. Temporarily secure the seatbelt buckle to the opening slot in the door trim to
move it out of the path of the midgate.
2. Raise the midgate up with a firm swinging motion until it latches into
place securely. This will help to ensure
that the midgate closes with enough
force to engage the latches.
3. Once the midgate is securely latched, release the seatbelt buckle from the slot
in the door trim. If the rear glass is removed and you would
like to put it back, do so using the
instructions given previously.
Tailgate
Manual Tailgate
{Warning
It is extremely dangerous to ride on the
tailgate, even when the vehicle is
operated at low speeds. People riding on
the tailgate can easily lose their balance
and fall in response to vehicle maneuvers.
Falling from a moving vehicle may result
in serious injuries or death. Do not allow
people to ride on the tailgate. Be sure
everyone in your vehicle is in a seat and
using a seat belt properly.
Use the remote key to unlock the tailgate.
Open the tailgate by lifting up on its handle
while pulling the tailgate down.
To shut the tailgate, firmly push it upward
until it latches.
After closing the tailgate, pull it back to be
sure it is latched securely.

124 Instruments and Controls
Charge Now
Charge Now is the default charging mode
for your vehicle. The vehicle begins charging
immediately when it is plugged in and
authenticated at the charging location.
With Charge Now selected, the Charging
screen displays:
.Text explaining that the vehicle will
charge immediately when plugged in.
.Charge Complete by/in: The estimated
time at which the vehicle will reach the
desired Charge Level.
.Target Charge Level Gauge: Sets
the percentage at which the vehicle will
stop charging. The gauge also displays an
estimate of the vehicle's range upon
completing the charging session.
{Warning
Do not charge your vehicle’s battery
above an 80% charge if you are going to
drive down long, steep grades such as
mountain passes. This provides room in
the battery for regenerative braking to
supplement your conventional brakes
during the descent. This is especially
important when towing a trailer, which
puts additional stress on your vehicle’s
braking system.
SeeHill and Mountain Roads 0190 for
important information about driving on
grades.
The default charge level is 100% when
plugged in. To set a different charge level,
drag the circular marker on the Target
Charge Level Gauge to the preferred value.
To lower the desired Charge Level, drag the
Charge Level marker counterclockwise, and
to increase it drag the marker clockwise. The
Charge Level can also be changed by
tapping
«andªinside the gauge on the
screen. The Range estimate updates once
the desired Charge Level is set. To optimize
battery health, the minimum allowable
Charge Level is determined by the vehicle. Charge Later
Instead of charging immediately to a desired
Charge Level, you may choose to delay the
charge to the vehicle and have it complete
by your desired departure time. This may be
a more economical choice and a more
efficient use of energy when charging at
home. To use this mode, touch the Charge
Later tab from the Next Charge screen.
With Charge Later selected, the Charging
screen displays:
.Text explaining that your vehicle will
delay the planned charge to be ready by
the time specified.
.Time Selector: Used to set the desired
time at which the vehicle will finish
charging and be ready for departure.

154 Infotainment System
reduce interference, some static can occur,
especially around tall buildings or hills,
causing the sound to fade in and out.
AM
The range for most AM stations is greater
than for FM, especially at night. The longer
range can cause station frequencies to
interfere with each other. Static can also
occur when things like storms and power
lines interfere with radio reception. When
this happens, try reducing the treble on the
radio.
SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
If equipped, SiriusXM Satellite Radio Service
provides digital radio reception. Tall
buildings or hills can interfere with satellite
radio signals, causing the sound to fade in
and out. In addition, traveling or standing
under heavy foliage, bridges, garages,
or tunnels may cause loss of the SiriusXM
signal for a period of time. Some cellular
services may interfere with SXM reception
causing loss of signal.
Mobile Device Usage
Mobile device usage, such as making or
receiving calls, charging, or just having the
mobile device on may cause static
interference in the radio. Unplug the mobile
device or turn it off if this happens.
Multi-Band Antenna
The multi-band roof antenna may be used
for radio, navigation, and other
communication systems, depending on the
equipped options. To ensure clear reception,
keep the antenna clear of obstructions, such
as snow and ice. If the vehicle has a
sunroof, and it is open, or a roof loaded
with cargo, reception may be affected.
Audio Players
Avoiding Untrusted Media Devices
When using media devices such as USB and
mobile devices, consider the source.
Untrusted media devices could contain files
that affect system operation or performance
and should be avoided.
USB Port
The vehicle may be equipped with multiple
USB ports. Ports may also be used for
charging. Music may be played from a
connected USB device.
Caution
To avoid vehicle damage, unplug all
accessories and disconnect all accessory
cables from the vehicle when not in use.
Accessory cables left plugged into the
vehicle, unconnected to a device, could be
damaged or cause an electrical short if
the unconnected end comes in contact
with liquids or another power source such
as the accessory power outlet.
USB Audio
To play music via USB:1. On the audio now playing page, touch source and select USB.
2. If there is no device connected, follow the screen prompts to connect the
device.
3. Supported media content will appear on the display.
