WARNING!
burns even at low temperatures, especially
if used for long periods of time.
• Do not place anything on the seat or seat-
back 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 overheated could cause se-
rious burns due to the increased surface
temperature of the seat.
Front Ventilated Seats
If your vehicle is equipped with ventilated seats,
the seat cushion and seat back will have fans
that draw the air from the passenger compart-
ment and move air through fine perforations in
the seat cover to help keep the driver and front
passenger cooler in higher ambient tempera-
tures. 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 Set-
tings” in “Multimedia” in the Owner's Manual
for further information.
HEAD RESTRAINTS
Head restraints are designed to reduce the risk
of injury by restricting head movement in the
event of a rear impact. Head restraints should
be adjusted so that the top of the head restraint
is located above the top of your ear.
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
crash.
• 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 (AHR) are passive, de-
ployable components, and vehicles with this
equipment cannot be readily identified by any
markings, only through visual inspection of the
head restraint. The AHR will be split in two
halves, with the front half being soft foam and
trim, while the back half is decorative plastic.
When AHRs deploy during a rear impact, the
front half of the head restraint extends forward
to minimize the gap between the back of the
