NOTE:
Once a heat setting is selected, heat will be
felt within two to five minutes.
When the HIGH-level setting is selected, the
heater will provide a boosted heat level during
the first four minutes of operation. Then, the
heat output will drop to the normal HIGH-level. If
the HIGH-level setting is selected, the system
will automatically switch to LOW-level after ap-
proximately 60 minutes of continuous opera-
tion. At that time, the number of illuminated
LEDs changes from two to one, indicating the
change. The LOW-level setting will turn OFF
automatically after approximately 45 minutes.
Ventilated Seats — If Equipped
On some models, both the driver and passen-
ger seats are ventilated. Located in the seat
cushion and seatback are small fans that draw
the air from the passenger compartment and
pull air through fine perforations in the seat
cover to help keep the driver and front passen-
ger cooler in higher ambient temperatures.
There are two ventilated seat soft—keys that
allow the driver and passenger to operate the
seats independently. The ventilated seat soft—
keys are located in the radio screen.
The ventilated seat soft—keys are used to
control the speed of the fans located in the seat.
Press the soft—keys once to choose HIGH,
press it a second time to choose LOW. Pressing
the soft—key a third time will turn the ventilated
seat OFF.
NOTE:
The engine must be running for the venti-
lated seats to operate.
Vehicles Equipped With Remote Start
On models that are equipped with remote start,
the driver’s ventilated seat can be programmed
to come on during a remote start. Refer to
“Remote Starting System — If Equipped” in
“Things To Know Before Starting Your Vehicle”
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!
The head restraints for all occupants must be
properly adjusted prior to operating the ve-
hicle 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.
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 head restraint will be split in two halves, with
the front half being soft foam and trim, the back
half being decorative plastic.
