time.
For example, if a device is plugged into the Type A
USB port and another device is plugged into the
Type C USB port, a message will appear and allow
you to select which device to use.
The following messages will appear when a
non-phone device is plugged into the smaller and
larger USB ports, and when a phone device is
plugged into the smaller and larger USB ports:
“A new device is now connected. Previous
connection was lost.”
“(Phone Name) now connected. Previous
connection was lost.”
“Another device is in use through the same USB
port. Please disconnect the first device to use
the second device.”
Plugging in a phone or another USB device may
cause the connection to a previous device to be
lost.
Connecting AUX Or The External USB
Device
Use a connection cable to connect an external USB
device to the vehicle’s USB port, or use an auxiliary

ignition switch is in the ON/RUN position, while the
outlets labeled with a battery symbol are
connected directly to the battery and powered at
all times.
NOTE:
All accessories connected to the battery
powered outlets should be removed or turned
off when the vehicle is not in use to protect the
battery against discharge.
Do not exceed the maximum power of 160 W
(13 Amp) at 12 Volt. If the 160 W (13 Amp)
power rating is exceeded the fuse protecting the
system needs to be replaced.
Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs
only. Do not insert any other object in the power
outlets as this will damage the outlet and blow
the fuse. Improper use of the power outlet can
cause damage not covered by your New Vehicle
Limited Warranty.
The front power outlet is located inside the storage
area on the center stack of the instrument panel,
below the climate controls.
Front Power Outlet
The rear cargo power outlet is located in the right

outlet fuse from F44B to F44A in the rear power
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Only devices designed for use in this type of
outlet should be inserted into any 12 Volt
outlet.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use and while driving
the vehicle.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.
CAUTION!
Many accessories that can be plugged in draw
power from the vehicle's battery, even when
not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventu
-
ally, if plugged in long enough, the vehicle's
battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade
battery life and/or prevent the engine from

There is a 115 Volt, 150 W inverter outlet located
on the back of the center console to convert DC
current to AC current. This outlet can power cellular
phones, electronics and other low power devices
requiring power up to 150 W. Certain video game
consoles exceed this power limit, as will most
power tools.
Power Inverter
The power inverter is designed with built-in
overload protection. If the power rating of 150 W is
exceeded, the power inverter automatically shuts
down. Once the electrical device has been
removed from the outlet the inverter should
automatically reset. To avoid overloading the
circuit, check the power ratings on electrical

Wireless Charging Pad
Your vehicle may be equipped with a 15 W3 Amp
Qi wireless charging pad located inside of the
storage area below the climate controls. This
charging pad is designed to wirelessly charge your
Qi enabled mobile phone. Qi is a standard that
allows wireless charging of your mobile phone.
Your mobile phone must be designed for Qi
wireless charging. If the phone is not equipped
with Qi wireless charging functionality, an
aftermarket sleeve or a specialized back plate can
be purchased from your mobile phone provider or
a local electronics retailer. Please see your
phone’s owner’s manual for further information.
Accessories that draw higher power (i.e.,
coolers, vacuum cleaners, lights, etc.) will
degrade the battery even more quickly. Only
use these intermittently and with greater
caution.
After the use of high power draw accessories,
or long periods of the vehicle not being started
(with accessories still plugged in), the vehicle
must be driven a sufficient length of time to
allow the generator to recharge the vehicle's
battery.
CAUTION!
WARNING!
To avoid serious injury or death:
Do not insert any objects into the receptacles.
Do not touch with wet hands.
Close the lid when not in use.
If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an
electric shock and failure.

The wireless charging pad is equipped with an
anti-slip mat to hold your mobile phone in place,
and an LED indicator light.
LED Indicator Status:
No Light: Charging pad is idle or searching for a
device.
Blue Light: Device is detected and is charging.
Red Light/Flashing: Internal error or foreign
object is detected.
Important Notes Regarding This Vehicle’s Wireless
Charging Pad:
All vehicle doors must be closed for the wireless
charging pad to operate.
If the phone moves on the pad causing the red
light to illuminate, the phone will have to be
picked up and placed back on the charging pad
to resume charging.
Wireless charging is not as fast as when the
phone is connected to a wired charger.
The phone’s protective case must be removed
when placed on the wireless charging pad.
iPhone® 12 (including iPod®) is equipped with
software to protect the device from overheating.
When the software is active, the rate of charge
is slowed down to protect the device.
Phones must always be placed on the wireless
charging pad within the outline shown on the
pad so that its charging parts connect with the
charging coils of the system. Movement of the
phone during charging may prevent or slow the
rate of charge.
Having multiple applications open on the phone
while charging will reduce the charging effi
-
ciency, and may even shut down an application
that is actively running (i.e. Apple CarPlay®).
This may also cause the phone to overheat.
Wireless chargers may implement certain
methods to prevent the phone from overheating
during charging such as slowing down the rate
of charge. In certain instances, the device may
shut down for a brief period of time (when the
device reaches a certain temperature). If this
happens, it does not mean there is a fault with
the wireless charing pad. This may just be a
protective measure to prevent damage to the
phone.

The Hands-Free Liftgate feature may be turned
on or off through the Uconnect system
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature should be
turned off during jacking, tire changing, manual
car wash, and vehicle service.
The Hands-Free Liftgate feature can be acti
-
vated by any metallic object making a similar
in-and-out motion under the rear fascia/
bumper, such as cleaning using a metal broom.
The Hands-Free Liftgate will only operate when
the transmission is in PARK.
If anything obstructs the Hands-Free Liftgate
while it is opening or closing, the liftgate will
automatically reverse to the closed/open posi
-
tion, provided it meets sufficient resistance.
There are pinch sensors attached to the side of
the liftgate opening. Light pressure anywhere
along these strips will cause the liftgate to
return to the open position.
If the power liftgate encounters multiple
obstructions within the same cycle, the system
will automatically stop. If this occurs, the liftgate
must be operated manually.
The power liftgate will release, but not power
open, in temperatures below −12°F (−24°C).
Be sure to remove any buildup of snow or ice
from the liftgate before opening the liftgate.
If the liftgate is left open for an extended period
of time (approximately one hour), the liftgate
may need to be closed manually to reset power
liftgate functionality.
Gas props support the liftgate in the open position.
However, because the gas pressure drops with
temperature, it may be necessary to assist the
props when opening the liftgate in cold weather.
NOTE:
Allow the power system to open the liftgate.
Manually pushing or pulling the liftgate may
activate the liftgate obstacle detection feature and
stop the power operation or reverse its direction.

WARNING!
Cargo tie-downs are not safe anchors for a
child seat tether strap. In a sudden stop or
accident, a tie-down could pull loose and allow
the child seat to come loose. A child could be
badly injured. Use only the anchors provided
for child seat tethers.
To help protect against personal injury,
passengers should not be seated in the rear
cargo area. The rear cargo space is intended
for load carrying purposes only, not for
passengers, who should sit in seats and use
seat belts.
The weight and position of cargo and
passengers can change the vehicle center of
gravity and vehicle handling. To avoid loss of
control resulting in personal injury, follow these
guidelines for loading your vehicle:
Do not carry loads that exceed the load limits
described on the label attached to the left
door or left door center pillar.
Always place cargo evenly on the cargo floor.
Put heavier objects as low and as far forward
as possible.
