Your audio system allows you to listen to music from the Pandora® app on a
compatible smartphone.
This function is available when the phone is paired and connected to the
vehicle’s
Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® (HFL) system, or with an iPhone, you can connect using
your USB cable to the USB port...
Other information:
* Not available on all models
When the system senses a loss of front wheel traction, it automatically
transfers
some power to the rear wheels. This allows you to utilize all available traction
and
may increase mobility.
You still need to exercise the same care when accelerating, steering, and
braking
that you would in a two wheel drive vehicle...
Adjust the driver's seat as far back as possible
while allowing you to maintain full control of
the vehicle. You should be able to sit upright,
well back in the seat and be able to
adequately press the pedals without leaning
forward, and grip the steering wheel
comfortably...
