RADIO OPERATION AND MOBILE PHONES  
Under certain conditions, the mobile phone being 
on in your vehicle can cause erratic or noisy 
performance from your radio. This condition may 
be lessened or eliminated by repositioning the 
mobile phone within the vehicle. This condition is 
not harmful to the radio. If your radio performance 
does not satisfactorily improve from repositioning  the mobile phone, it is recommended that the 
volume be turned down or off during mobile phone 
operation when not using the Uconnect system.

Exposure to Radio Frequency Radiation
The radiated output power of the internal wireless 
radio is far below the FCC and IC radio frequency 
exposure limits. Nevertheless, the wireless radio 
will be used in such a manner that the radio is 
8 inches (20 cm) or further from the human body.
The internal wireless radio operates within 
guidelines found in radio frequency safety 
standards and recommendations, which reflect 
the consensus of the scientific community.
The radio manufacturer believes the internal 
wireless radio is safe for use by consumers. The 
level of energy emitted is far less than the 
electromagnetic energy emitted by wireless 
devices such as mobile phones. However, the use 
of wireless radios may be restricted in some 
situations or environments, such as aboard 
airplanes. If you are unsure of restrictions, you are 
encouraged to ask for authorization before turning 
on the wireless radio  Ú page 408.

If the ABS Warning Light is on, the brake system 
should be serviced as soon as possible to restore 
the benefits of Anti-Lock Brakes. If the ABS

repaired as soon as possible.
DROWSY DRIVER DETECTION (DDD) — 
I
F EQUIPPED
DDD detects when the driver is feeling fatigued 
and warns the driver to pull over and take a break.
To Activate/Deactivate
DDD can be activated and deactivated through the 
Uconnect system by selecting the following in order:
1. “Safety & Driving Assistance”
2. “Drowsy Driver Detection”
System Operation
Using feedback obtained from the driver’s steering 
patterns, any buttons/switches that are pressed, 
and from the front camera, the system implements 
two operating logics:
The first operating logic takes the driving style 
into account, observing the road and detecting 
to what extent the driver can continue driving 
with few lane crossing events.
The second operating logic measures the time 
spent behind the wheel with the vehicle speed 
above 40 mph (60 km/h) and below 100 mph 
(160 km/h).
If the driving style indicates that the driver is 
unable to follow the road trajectory and respect the 
horizontal lane markings while within the operating 
speed range of the system, a pop up will display on 
the instrument cluster display to suggest that the 
driver should stop for a break. An audible signal 
will also sound.
If the driver  accepts the suggestion provided by the 
system by pushing the “OK” button on the left side 
of the steering wheel, the message will disappear 
from the display.
If the driver  does not acknowledge  the warning, it 
will be displayed for 60 seconds and then 
disappear.
NOTE:In the event of a DDD system failure, a dedicated 
message will appear in the instrument cluster 
display.
DDD Warning Message
REAR SEAT REMINDER ALERT (RSRA)
RSRA alerts you through a visual and auditory 
notification of the possible presence of an object, 
passenger, or pet in the rear seats if a rear door 
was opened up to 10 minutes before the ignition 
was placed in the ON/RUN position. RSRA does not 
directly detect objects, passengers, or pets in the 
rear seats. When the previous conditions are met, 
RSRA displays the message “Check Rear Seat” on 
the instrument cluster display and sounds an 
auditory alert upon the driver placing the ignition in 
the OFF position to exit the vehicle.
To enable or disable RSRA, see  Ú page 204.WARNING!
The DDD system is an aid for driving and does 
not relieve the driver of the responsibility of 
driving the vehicle. Always drive alert and get 
plenty of rest before driving. If you experience 
fatigue while driving, do not wait for the DDD to 
intervene with a warning. Choose a safe and 
secure location where you can pull over safely 
for a break. Only return to the road when you are 
in the right physical and mental condition to 
prevent endangering yourself and others.
