sharp objects to clean or remove decals
from the inside of the heated rear window.
The vehicle warranty does not cover
damage caused to the heated rear window
grid lines.

Heated Exterior Mirrors

 (If Equipped)

When you switch the heated rear window
on, the heated exterior mirrors will
automatically turn on.

Note: Do not remove ice from the mirrors
with a scraper or adjust the mirror glass
when it is frozen in place.

Note: Do not clean the mirror housing or
glass with harsh abrasives, fuel or other
petroleum-based cleaning products.

CABIN AIR FILTER

Your vehicle is equipped with a cabin air
filter, which gives you and your passengers
the following benefits:

It improves your driving comfort by
reducing particle concentration.

It improves the interior compartment
cleanliness.

It protects the climate control
components from particle deposits.

Your cabin air filter is located under the
instrument panel in the passenger footwell
area.

Note: Make sure you have a cabin air filter
installed at all times. This prevents foreign
objects from entering the system. Running
the system without a filter in place could
result in degradation or damage to the
system.

Replace the filter at regular intervals.  See
Maintenance (page 218).

For additional cabin air filter information,
or to replace the filter, see an authorized
dealer.

REMOTE START

 (If Equipped)

The remote start feature allows you to
pre-condition the interior of your vehicle.
The climate control system works to
achieve comfort according to your previous
settings.

Note: You cannot adjust the system during
remote start operation.

Turn the ignition on to return the system
to its previous settings. You can now make
adjustments normally, but you need to turn
certain vehicle-dependent features back
on, such as:

Heated seats.

Cooled seats.

Heated steering wheel.

Heated mirrors.

Heated rear window.

You can adjust the default remote start
settings using the information display
controls.  See Information Displays
(page 93).

Automatic Settings

In hot weather, the system is set to 72°F
(22°C). The cooled seats are set to high
(if available, and selected to AUTO in the
information display).

In moderate weather, the system either
heats or cools (based on previous
settings). The rear defroster, heated
mirrors and heated seats do not
automatically turn on.

In cold weather, the system is set to 72°F
(22°C). The heated seats are set to high
(if available, and selected to AUTO in the
information display). The rear defroster
and heated mirrors automatically turn on.

SITTING IN THE CORRECT
POSITION

WARNINGS

Sitting improperly, out of position or
with the seatback reclined too far
can take weight off the seat cushion

and affect the decision of the passenger
sensing system, resulting in serious injury
or death in the event of a crash. Always sit
upright against your seat back, with your
feet on the floor.

Do not recline the seatback as this
can cause the occupant to slide
under the safety belt, resulting in

serious injury in the event of a crash.

Do not place objects higher than the
seatback to reduce the risk of serious
injury in the event of a crash or during

heavy braking.

E68595

When you use them properly, the seat,
head restraint, safety belt and airbags will
provide optimum protection in the event
of a crash.

We recommend that you follow these
guidelines:

Sit in an upright position with the base
of your spine as far back as possible.

Do not recline the seatback more than
30 degrees.

Adjust the head restraint so that the
top of it is level with the top of your
head and as far forward as possible.
Make sure that you remain
comfortable.

Keep sufficient distance between
yourself and the steering wheel. We
recommend a minimum of 10 in
(25 cm) between your breastbone and
the airbag cover.

Hold the steering wheel with your arms
slightly bent.

Bend your legs slightly so that you can
press the pedals fully.

Position the shoulder strap of the
safety belt over the center of your
shoulder and position the lap strap
tightly across your hips.

Make sure that your driving position is
comfortable and that you can maintain full
control of your vehicle.

HEAD RESTRAINTS

WARNINGS

Fully adjust the head restraint before
you sit in or operate your vehicle. This
will help minimize the risk of neck

injury in the event of a crash. Do not adjust
the head restraint when your vehicle is
moving.

The head restraint is a safety device.
Whenever possible it should be
installed and properly adjusted when

the seat is occupied. An improperly
adjusted head restraint may not
adequately protect an occupant during an
impact from the rear.

WARNINGS

Install the head restraint properly to
help minimize the risk of neck injury
in the event of a crash.

Note: Adjust the seatback to an upright
driving position before adjusting the head
restraint. Adjust the head restraint so that
the top of it is level with the top of your head
and as far forward as possible. Make sure
that you remain comfortable. If you are
extremely tall, adjust the head restraint to
its highest position.
