Front Ventilated Seats - If Equipped
Located in the seat cushion and seat back are fans that
draw the air from the passenger compartment and move
air through fine perforations in the seat cover to help
keep the driver and front passenger cooler in higher
ambient temperatures. The fans operate at two speeds,
HI and LO.
The front ventilated seats control buttons are located
within the Uconnect system. You can gain access to the
control buttons through the climate screen or the controls
screen.
- Press the ventilated seat button
once to choose HI.
- Press the ventilated seat button
a second time to
choose LO.
- Press the ventilated seat button
a third time to
turn the ventilated seat OFF.
NOTE: The engine must be running for the ventilated
seats to operate.
Vehicles Equipped With Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote start, the
ventilated seats can be programmed to come on during a
remote start.
This feature can be programmed through the Uconnect
system. Refer to "Uconnect Settings" in "Understanding
Your Instrument Panel" for further information.
Head Restraints
Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk of injury
by restricting head movement in the event of a rearimpact.
Head restraints should be adjusted so that the top
of the head restraint is located above the top of your ear.
| WARNING!
The head restraints for all occupants must be properly
adjusted prior to operating the vehicle or occupying
a seat. Head restraints should never be adjusted
while the vehicle is in motion. Driving a
vehicle with the head restraints improperly adjusted
or removed could cause serious injury or death in the
event of a collision. |
Supplemental Active Head Restraints - Front
Seats
Active Head Restraints are passive, deployable components,
and vehicles with this equipment cannot be readily
identified by any markings, only through visual inspection
of the head restraint. The Active Head Restraints
(AHR) will be split in two halves, with the front half
being soft foam and trim, the back half being decorative
plastic.
When AHRs deploy during a rear impact, the front half
of the head restraint extends forward to reduce the gap
between the back of the occupant's head and the AHR.
This system is design to reduce the risk of injury to the
driver or front passenger in certain types of rear impacts.
Refer to "Occupant Restraints" in "Things To Know
Before Starting Your Vehicle" for further information.
To raise the head restraint, pull upward on the head
restraint. To lower the head restraint, push the adjustment
button, located at the base of the head restraint, and
push downward on the head restraint.
Adjustment Button
For comfort the Active Head Restraints can be tilted
forward and rearward. To tilt the head restraint closer to
the back of your head, pull forward on the bottom of the
head restraint. Push rearward on the bottom of the head
restraint to move the head restraint away from your
head.
Active Head Restraint (Normal Position)
Active Head Restraint (Tilted)
NOTE:
- The head restraints should only be removed by qualified
technicians, for service purposes only. If either of
the head restraints require removal, see your authorized
dealer.
- In the event of deployment of an Active Head Restraint,
refer to "Occupant Restraints/Resetting Active
Head Restraints (AHR)" in "Things To Know Before
Starting Your Vehicle" for further information.
WARNING!
- All occupants, including the driver, should not
operate a vehicle or sit in a vehicle's seat until the
head restraints are placed in their proper positions
in order to minimize the risk of neck injury in the
event of a collision.
- Do not place items over the top of the Active Head
Restraint, such as coats, seat covers or portable
DVD players. These items may interfere with the
operation of the Active Head Restraint in the event
of a collision and could result in serious injury or
death.
- Active Head Restraints may be deployed if they are
struck by an object such as a hand, foot or loose
cargo. To avoid accidental deployment of the Active
Head Restraint ensure that all cargo is secured,
as loose cargo could contact the Active Head Restraint
during sudden stops. Failure to follow this
warning could cause personal injury if the Active
Head Restraint is deployed.

Head Restraints - Rear Seats
The head restraints on the outboard seats are not adjustable.
They automatically fold forward when the rear seat
is folded to a load floor position but do not return to their
normal position when the rear seat is raised. After
returning either seat to its upright position, raise the head
restraint until it locks in place. The outboard head
restraints are not removable.
The center head restraint has limited adjustment. Lift
upward on the head restraint to raise it, or push downward
on the head restraint to lower it.
Rear Head Restraint
| WARNING!
Sitting in a seat with the head restraint in its lowered
position could result in serious injury or death in a
collision. Always make sure the outboard head restraints
are in their upright positions when the seat is
to be occupied. |
NOTE: For proper routing of a Child Seat Tether, refer to
"Occupant Restraints" in "Things to Know Before Starting
Your Vehicle" for further information.
