Rear Wiper Arm Assembly Protection
When using an automatic car wash, move
the rear wiper control to OFF to disable the
rear wiper. In some vehicles, if the
transmission is in N (Neutral) and the
vehicle speed is very slow, the rear wiper
will automatically park under the rear
spoiler.
The wiper operations return to normal when
the transmission is no longer in N (Neutral)
or the vehicle speed has increased.
Reverse Gear Wipes
If the rear wiper control is off, the rear
wiper will automatically operate
continuously when the shift lever is in
R (Reverse), and the front windshield wiper
is performing low or high speed wipes. If the rear wiper control is off, the shift
lever is in R (Reverse), and the front
windshield wiper is performing interval
wipes, then the rear wiper automatically
performs interval wipes.
The windshield washer reservoir is used for
the windshield and the rear window. Check
the fluid level in the reservoir if either
washer is not working. See
Washer Fluid
0 228.
Compass
The vehicle may have a compass display on
the Driver Information Center (DIC). The
compass receives its heading and other
information from the Global Positioning
System (GPS) antenna, StabiliTrak/Electronic
Stability Control (ESC), and vehicle speed
information.
The compass system is designed to operate
for a certain number of miles or degrees of
turn before needing a signal from the GPS
satellites. When the compass display shows
CAL, drive the vehicle for a short distance in
an open area where it can receive a GPS
signal. The compass system will
automatically determine when a GPS signal
is restored and provide a heading again.

outlet. Do not leave electrical equipment
plugged in when the vehicle is not in use
because the vehicle could catch fire and
cause injury or death.
Caution
Leaving electrical equipment plugged in
for an extended period of time while the
ignition is off will drain the battery.
Always unplug electrical equipment when
not in use and do not plug in equipment
that exceeds the maximum 15 amp
rating.
Certain accessory plugs may not be
compatible with the accessory power outlet
and could overload vehicle and adapter
fuses. If a problem is experienced, see your
dealer.
When adding electrical equipment, be sure
to follow the proper installation instructions
included with the equipment. See Add-On
Electrical Equipment 0214.
Caution
Hanging heavy equipment from the
power outlet can cause damage not
covered by the vehicle warranty. The
power outlets are designed for accessory
power plugs only, such as cell phone
charge cords.
Wireless Charging
If equipped and enabled, the vehicle has
wireless charging in the storage bin at the
front of the floor console . The system
operates at 145 kHz and wirelessly charges
one Qi compatible smartphone. The power
output of the system is capable of charging
at a rate up to 3 amp (15 W), as requested
by the compatible smartphone. See Radio
Frequency Statement 0305.
{Warning
Wireless charging may affect the
operation of an implanted pacemaker or
other medical devices. If you have one, it
is recommended to consult with your
doctor before using the wireless charging
system. The vehicle must be on, in ACC/ACCESSORY,
or Retained Accessory Power (RAP) must be
active. The wireless charging feature may
not correctly indicate charging when the
vehicle is in RAP, during a Bluetooth phone
call, or when phone projection (e.g. Apple
CarPlay / Android Auto) is active. See
Retained Accessory Power (RAP)
0181.
The operating temperature is −40 °C (−40 °F)
to 85 °C (185 °F) for the charging system and
0 °C (32 °F) to 35 °C (95 °F) for the phone.
A charging stopped alert may be displayed
on the infotainment screen, if the wireless
charger or smartphone are outside of
normal operating temperature. Charging will
automatically resume when a normal
operating temperature is reached.
{Warning

before charging your compatible
smartphone. Objects, such as coins, keys,
rings, paper clips, or cards, between the
smartphone and charger may become
very hot.

Warning (Continued)
On the rare occasion that the charging
system does not detect an object, and
the object gets wedged between the
smartphone and charger, remove the
smartphone and allow the object to cool
before removing it from the charger, to
prevent burns.
To charge a compatible smartphone:1. Confirm the smartphone is capable of wireless charging. 2. Remove all objects from the charging
pad. The system may not charge if there
are any objects between the smartphone
and charger.
3. Place the smartphone face up against the rear of the charger.
To maximize the charge rate, ensure the
smartphone is fully seated and centered
in the holder with nothing under it.
A thick smartphone case may prevent
the charger from working, or reduce the
charging performance. See your dealer
for additional information.
4. A green
]will appear on the
infotainment display, next to the phone
icon. This indicates that the smartphone
is detected.
5. If a smartphone is placed on the charger and
]turns off or turns yellow, remove
the smartphone and any objects from
the pad. Turn the smartphone
180 degrees and wait a few seconds
before placing/aligning it on the pad
again. 6. If a smartphone is placed on the charger
and
]turns red, the charger and/or the
smartphone is overheated. Remove the
smartphone and any objects from the
charger in order to cool the system.
The smartphone may become warm during
charging. This is normal. In warmer
temperatures, the speed of charging may be
reduced.
For vehicles with wireless phone projection,
the smartphone may overheat during
wireless charging. The smartphone may slow
down, stop charging, or shut down to
protect the battery. The phone may need to
be removed from its case to prevent
overheating. The
]may flash while the
phone is cooling down enough for wireless
charging to automatically resume. This is
normal. Individual phone performance
may vary.
