Rear Storage Compartment — If Equipped
The rear cargo area storage compartment is located underneath the load floor.

USB/AUX CONTROL
The Media Hub is located on the instrument panel, below the climate controls. Behind the media hub access door, the Media Hub contains one AUX port, a Type C USB port and one standard USB port. Both USB ports allow you to play music from MP3 players, smartphones or USB devices through the vehicle’s sound system.
Plugging in a smartphone device to a USB port may activate Android Auto™ or Apple CarPlay® features, if equipped. For further information, refer to Android Auto™ or Apple Carplay® Ú page 250 or in the Owner’s Manual Supplement. The Smart Charging USB ports provide power to your device up to an hour after the vehicle is turned off.
NOTE
- Once a device is connected to the USB port, it will begin charging and is ready for use with the system. Type C and Type A charge-only USB ports can be used at the same time but cannot be used simultaneously while playing media. When both Type C and Type A charge-only USB ports are in use they will be charged at a reduced rate.
- Both ports share a single data connection. The user cannot switch between Type A or Type C.
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.
- AUX Port
- Type C USB Port
- Type A USB Port
Located inside the center console, a second USB port allows you to play music from USB devices through your vehicle’s sound system.
Third and fourth USB ports (if equipped) are located behind the center console, above the power inverter. Both ports are charge only.
- Type C And Standard Charge Only USB Ports
- Type C And Standard Charge Only USB Ports
When a new device or smartphone is plugged into the USB ports, the following message may display depending on the device being utilized:
- “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”.
NOTE
Charge unsupported devices with the Charge Only USB ports. If an unsupported device is plugged into a Media USB port, a message will display on the touchscreen that the device is not supported by the system.
WARNING!
Do not plug in or remove the external device while driving. Failure to follow this warning could result in a collision.
POWER OUTLETS
There are two 12 Volt (13 Amp) auxiliary power outlets that can provide power for accessories designed for use with the standard power outlet adapters.
The front power outlet is located in the center of the instrument panel below the climate controls, and is powered from the ignition switch. Power is available when the ignition switch is in the ON/ RUN or ACC position.
On vehicles equipped with a rear subwoofer, there is a second power outlet located in the rear cargo area and is powered directly from the vehicle’s battery.
- F43 Fuse 20A Yellow Rear Power Outlet (battery-powered at all times)
- F45 Fuse 20A Yellow Rear Power Outlet (powered when the ignition switch is in the ON/ RUN or ACC position)
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.
CAUTION
- Do not exceed the maximum power of 160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If the 160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is exceeded, the fuse protecting the system will need 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.
- Many accessories that can be plugged in draw power from the vehicle’s battery, even when not in use (i.e., cellular phones, etc.). Eventually, if plugged in long enough, the vehicle’s battery will discharge sufficiently to degrade battery life and/or prevent the engine from starting.
- 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 alternator to recharge the vehicle’s battery.
- Power outlets are designed for accessory plugs only. Do not hang any type of accessory or accessory bracket from the plug. Improper use of the power outlet can cause damage.
POWER INVERTER — IF EQUIPPED
There is a 115 Volt, 150 Watt 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 Watts. Certain video game consoles exceed this power limit, as will most power tools.
The power inverter is designed with built-in overload protection. If the power rating of 150 Watts is exceeded, the power inverter automatically shuts down. Once the electrical device has been removed from the outlet, the inverter should automatically reset. If the power rating exceeds approximately 170 Watts, the power inverter may have to be reset manually.
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.
AUXILIARY SWITCHES — IF EQUIPPED
Four auxiliary switches located in the lower switch bank of the instrument panel can be used to power various electrical devices. You have the ability to configure the functionality of the auxiliary switches via the Uconnect Settings Ú page 207.
All switches can be configured as follows:
- Switch type operation: Latching or Momentary
- Power source: Battery or Ignition
- Ability to hold last state across key cycles: On or Off
NOTE:
Holding last state conditions are met when switch type is set to latching and power source is set to ignition.
The auxiliary switches manage the relays that power four blunt cut wires. These wires are located under the instrument panel in the passenger compartment and under the hood to the right, near the battery.
In addition to the four auxiliary switch wires, a fused battery wire and ignition wire are also located in the interior, in the passenger side under the instrument panel.
A kit of splices and heat shrink tubing are provided with the auxiliary switches to aid in the connection/ installation of your electrical devices.
