3. When you remove your foot from the
brake pedal, your vehicle remains on the
slope without rolling away for about two
to three seconds. This hold time
automatically extends if you are in the
process of driving off.
4. Drive off in the normal manner. The system releases the brakes
automatically.
Note: When you remove your foot from the
brake pedal and press the pedal again when
the system is active, you will experience
significantly reduced brake pedal travel. This
is normal.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The traction control system helps avoid drive
wheel spin and loss of traction.
If your vehicle begins to slide, the system
applies the brakes to individual wheels and,
when needed, reduces engine power at the
same time. If the wheels spin when
accelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,
the system reduces engine power in order to
increase traction.
USING TRACTION CONTROL
WARNING
The stability and traction control light
illuminates steadily if the system
detects a failure. Make sure you did not
manually disable the traction control system
using the information display controls or the
switch. If the stability control and traction
control light is still illuminating steadily, have
the system serviced by an authorized dealer
immediately. Operating your vehicle with the
traction control disabled could lead to an
increased risk of loss of vehicle control,
vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. The system automatically turns on each time
you switch the ignition on.
If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,
switching traction control off may be
beneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.
Note:
When you switch traction control off,
stability control remains fully active.
Switching the System Off
When you switch the system off or on, a
message appears in the information display
showing system status.
You can switch the system off by either using
the information display controls or the switch.
Using the Information Display
Controls
You can switch this feature off or on in the
information display. See Using Traction
Control (page 153).
Using a Switch
(If Equipped)
Use the traction control switch on the
instrument panel to switch the system off or
on.
The switch illuminates when traction control
is off. System Indicator Lights and
Messages The stability and traction control
light:
• Temporarily illuminates on engine
start-up.
• Flashes when a driving condition
activates either of the systems.
• Illuminates if a problem occurs in either
of the systems. The stability and traction control
off light temporarily illuminates on
engine start-up and stays on when
you switch the traction control system off.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNINGS
To help avoid personal injury, please
read and understand the limitations of
the system as contained in this section.
Sensing is only an aid for some (generally
large and fixed) objects when moving on a
flat surface at parking speeds. Certain objects
with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic waves,
surrounding vehicle's parking aid systems,
traffic control systems, fluorescent lamps,
inclement weather, air brakes, and external
motors and fans may also affect the function
of the sensing system; this may include
reduced performance or a false activation. To help avoid personal injury, always
use caution when in reverse (R) and
when using the sensing system.
This system is not designed to prevent
contact with small or moving objects.
The system is designed to provide a
warning to assist the driver in detecting large
stationary objects to avoid damaging your
vehicle. The system may not detect smaller
objects, particularly those close to the
ground. WARNINGS
Certain add-on devices such as large
trailer hitches, bike or surfboard racks
and any device that may block the
normal detection zone of the system, may
create false beeps. Note:
Keep the sensors, located on the
bumper or fascia, free from snow, ice and large
accumulations of dirt. If the sensors are
covered, the system ’s accuracy can be
affected. Do not clean the sensors with sharp
objects.
Note: If your vehicle sustains damage to the
bumper or fascia, leaving it misaligned or bent,
the sensing zone may be altered causing
inaccurate measurement of obstacles or false
alarms.
Note: The sensing system cannot be turned
off when a MyKey is present. See Principle
of Operation (page 50).
Note: If you attach certain add-on devices
such as a trailer or bike rack, the rear sensing
system may detect that add-on device and
therefore provide warnings. It is suggested that
you disable the rear sensing system when you
attach an add-on device to your vehicle to
prevent these warnings. The sensing system warns the driver of
obstacles within a certain range of your
vehicle. The system turns on automatically
whenever you switch the ignition on.
The system can be switched off through the
information display menu or from the pop-up
message that appears once you shift the
transmission into reverse (R). See
General
Information (page 89).
If a fault is present in the system, a warning
message appears in the information display.
See
Information Messages (page 95).
REAR PARKING AID
The rear sensors are only active when the
transmission is in reverse (R). As your vehicle
moves closer to the obstacle, the rate of the
audible warning increases. When the
obstacle is less than
12 in (30 cm) away, the
warning sounds continuously. If the system
detects a stationary or receding object farther
than
12 in (30 cm) from the corners of the
bumper, the tone sounds for only three
seconds. Once the system detects an object
approaching, the warning sounds again.

When driving at a speed less than 22 mph
(35 km/h), the system automatically scans
both sides of your vehicle for an available
parking space. A message and a
corresponding graphic appears in the display screen to indicate it is searching for a parking
space. Use the direction indicator to indicate
which side of your vehicle you want the
system to search.
Note:
If the direction indicator is not on, the
system automatically searches on your
vehicle's passenger side. When the system finds a suitable space, the
touchscreen displays a message and a chime
sounds. Slow down, continue moving forward
and stop when another chime sounds and a
message displays on the touchscreen, then
follow the instructions on the touchscreen.
Note:
You must observe that the selected
space remains clear of obstructions at all
times in the maneuver. Note:
Active park assist may not detect
vehicles with overhanging loads (a bus or a
truck), street furniture and other items. You
must make sure the selected space is suitable
for parking.
Note: You should drive your vehicle within
5 ft
(1.5 m) and as parallel to the other vehicles as
possible while passing a parking space.
Note: The system always offers the last
detected parking space (for example, if your
vehicle detects multiple spaces while you are
driving, it offers the last one). Note:
If driven above approximately
22 mph
(35 km/h), the display screen shows a
message to alert you to reduce your vehicle
speed.
Automatic Steering into Parking
Space
Note: If vehicle speed exceeds
22 mph
(35 km/h) or the maneuver is interrupted
(driver input is detected), the system switches
off and you need to take full control of your
vehicle.

Note:
If a maneuver is interrupted before
completion, the system switches off. The
steering wheel position will not indicate the
actualy position of the steering and you have
to take full control of your vehicle. When you shift the transmission into reverse
(R), with your hands off the wheel (and
nothing obstructing its movement), your
vehicle steers itself into the space. The
system displays instructions to move your
vehicle back and forth in the space.When you think your vehicle has enough
space in front and behind it, or you hear a
solid tone from the parking aid (accompanied
by a touchscreen display message and a
chime), bring your vehicle to a complete stop.
When automatic steering is finished, the
display screen displays a message and a
chime sounds, indicating that the active park
assist process is done. The driver is
responsible for checking the parking job and
making any necessary corrections before
putting the transmission in park (P).
Deactivating the Park Assist Feature
Manually deactivate the system by:

Pressing the active park assist button
during an active maneuver.
• Grabbing the steering wheel during an
active maneuver.
• Driving above approximately 22 mph
(35 km/h) for 30 seconds during an
active park search. •
Driving above
22 mph (35 km/h) during
automatic steering.
• Turning off the traction control system.
Certain vehicle conditions can also deactivate
the system, such as:
• Traction control has activated on a
slippery or loose surface.
• There is an anti-lock brake system
activation or failure.
• Something touches the steering wheel.

WARNINGS
Use caution when turning camera
features on or off while in R (Reverse).
Make sure the vehicle is not moving.
The rear view camera system provides a
video image of the area behind your vehicle.
The image will display in either the rear view
mirror or the display in the center of the
instrument panel.
During operation, lines will appear in the
display that represent your vehicle
’s path and
proximity to objects behind your vehicle. The camera is located on the trunk. Using the Rear View Camera System
The rear view camera system displays what
is behind your vehicle when you place the
transmission in Reverse (R).
The system uses three types of guides to help
you see what is behind your vehicle:

Active guidelines: Show the intended
path of your vehicle when reversing.
• Fixed guidelines: Show the actual path
your vehicle is moving in while reversing
in a straight line. This can be helpful when
backing into a parking space or aligning
your vehicle with another object behind
you.
• Centerline (if applicable): Helps align the
center of your vehicle with an object
(trailer).
Note: If the transmission is in Reverse (R) and
the luggage compartment is ajar, no rear view
camera features will display.
Note: If the image comes on while the
transmission is not in Reverse (R), have the
system inspected by an authorized dealer. Note:
When towing, the camera only sees
what you are towing behind your vehicle. This
might not provide adequate coverage and you
might not see some objects. In some vehicles,
the guidelines may disappear once you
connect the trailer tow connector.
The camera may not operate correctly under
the following conditions:
• Nighttime or dark areas if the reverse
lamps are not operating.
• Mud, water or debris obstructs the
camera's view. Clean the lens with a soft,
lint-free cloth and non-abrasive cleaner.
• The camera is misaligned due to damage
to the rear of your vehicle.
The rear view camera system settings can
be accessed through the information display.
See General Information (page 89). After
changing a system setting, the touch screen
shows a preview of the selected features.
Guidelines and the Centerline
Note: Active guidelines and fixed guidelines
are only available when the transmission is in
Reverse (R).
Note: The centerline is only available if Active
or Fixed guidelines are on.

If your vehicle is equipped with active
guidelines they are only available with fixed
guidelines. To use active guidelines, turn the
steering wheel to point the guidelines toward
an intended path. If you change the steering
wheel position while reversing, your vehicle
might deviate from the original intended path.
The fixed and active guidelines fade in and
out depending on your steering wheel
position. When your steering wheel position
is straight, the active guidelines are not
visible.
Always use caution while reversing. Objects
in the red zone are closest to your vehicle and
objects in the green zone are farther away.
Objects are getting closer to your vehicle as
they move from the green zone to the yellow
or red zones. Use the side view mirrors and
rear view mirror to get better coverage on
both sides and rear of your vehicle.
Enhanced Park Aids
Note: Enhanced park aids are only available
when the transmission is in Reverse (R). Note:
The reverse sensing system is not
effective at speeds above 3 mph (5 km/h) and
may not detect certain angular or moving
objects.
The system uses red, yellow and green
highlights that appear on top of the video
image when the reverse sensing system
detects an object. The alert highlights the
closest object detected. You can disable the
reverse sensing alert if you have visual park
aid alert enabled, you will still see the
displayed highlighted areas.
Selectable settings for this feature are ON
and OFF.
Manual Zoom WARNING
When manual zoom is on, the full area
behind your vehicle is not shown. Be
aware of your surroundings when using
the manual zoom feature. Note:
Manual zoom is only available when
the transmission is in Reverse (R).
Note: Only the centerline shows when you
enable manual zoom.

This allows you to get a closer view of an
object behind your vehicle. The zoomed
image keeps the bumper in the image to
provide a reference. The zoom is only active
while the transmission is in Reverse (R).
When you shift the transmission out of
Reverse (R), the feature automatically turns
off and you must enable it to use it used
again.
Selectable settings for this feature are ON
and OFF.
Rear Camera Delay
When shifting the transmission out of
Reverse (R) and into any gear other than Park
(P), the camera image remains in the display
until your vehicle speed reaches 6 mph (10
km/h or until you select a radio button.
Selectable settings for this feature are ON
and OFF. The default setting for the rear
camera delay is OFF.
