. Extreme temperature settings,
such as 15° C (60° F) or 32° C
(90° F)
. High fan speed settings
To help reduce fuel usage:
. Use the full automatic control as
described under “Automatic
Operation.”
. Select a temperature setting that
is higher in hot weather and lower
in cold weather.
. Turn off the air conditioning when
it is not needed.
. Only use defrost to clear the
windows.

Driver Mode Control
Driver Mode Control (DMC) adds a
sportier feel, provides a more
comfortable ride, or assists in different
weather conditions or terrains. This
system simultaneously changes the
software settings of various
sub-systems to optimize driving
performance. Depending on the option
package, available features, and mode
selection; the Exhaust, Suspension,
Transfer-Case, Steering, Brakes and
Powertrain will change settings to
achieve the desired mode
characteristics. If the vehicle is
equipped with Magnetic Ride Control,
selecting the various Driver Modes
adjusts the ride of the vehicle to
enhance the ride performance for the
road conditions and the
selected mode.
Driver Mode Control has multiple
modes: My Mode, Tour, Sport, Snow/
Ice, Track and V-Mode. The Track
Mode and V-Mode are for V-Series
models only. Tour, Sport, Snow/Ice,
and Track are four modes that have preset vehicle settings for use in
different driving conditions. For
further detail see
“Mode Description ”.
My Mode and V-Mode are two modes
which can be customized by the
driver. In these two modes, vehicle
settings are configured to enhance
and personalize the driving
experience. See “Drive Mode
Customization ”for further details on
available customizations.

Mode Description
Tour Mode
Use for normal city and highway
driving to provide a smooth, soft ride.
This setting provides a balanced
setting between comfort and handling.
This is the standard mode. For further
details on Tour Mode see “Driver
Mode Selector Attributes Affected ”.
When Tour Mode is selected, no
indicator will display.
Sport Mode
Use where road conditions or personal
preference demand a more controlled
response.
When selected, the Sport Mode
indicator will display.
In this mode, the vehicle monitors
driving behaviors and automatically
enables Performance Shift Features
when spirited driving is detected.
These features maintain lower
transmission gears to increase
available engine braking and improve
acceleration response. The vehicle will
exit this feature and return to normal
operation after a short period when no spirited driving is detected. The
steering will change to provide more
precise control. If the vehicle has
Magnetic Ride Control, the suspension
will change to provide better
cornering performance. Competitive
Driving Mode (Only available on FE3
suspensions) can be accessed through
this mode. See
Competitive Driving
Mode 0191.
For further details on Sport Mode, see
“Driver Mode Selector Attributes
Affected”.
The Performance Algorithm Liftfoot
(PAL) feature is enabled in Sport
Mode. PAL allows the transmission to
hold the current gear after a quick
release of a heavily applied accelerator
pedal. This provides greater engine
braking and enhanced vehicle control.
When PAL is activated, there may be
an additional green gear symbol which
appears in the instrument cluster
display. See Performance Shifting Light
0 111.

Warning (Continued)
APA does not detect or avoid traffic
that is behind or alongside of the
vehicle. Always be prepared to stop
the vehicle during the parking
maneuver.
Touch
Oon the center stack to
enable the system to search for a
parking space that is large enough and
within 1.5 m (5 ft) of the vehicle. The
vehicle speed must be below
30 km/h (18 mph). The system cannot:
. Detect whether it is a legal parking
space.
. Park exactly lined up with the
vehicle next to it if the spot is
approached at an angle or if the
parking space is angled.
. Park exactly centered in a spot
that is marked too large.
. Always detect short curbs.
When enabled, APA searches for
parallel parking spaces to the right of
the vehicle. To search for a parking
space to the left, turn on the left turn signal or, if available, change the side
selection in the infotainment display.
To switch the parking mode between
parallel and perpendicular, change the
parking mode in the infotainment
display.
After completely passing a large
enough space, an audible beep occurs.
A red stop symbol and a shift to
reverse message are displayed.
If the vehicle is in R (Reverse), but
does not steer into the expected
space, this may be because the system
is maneuvering the vehicle into a
previously detected space. The APA
system does not need service.
APA will instruct the vehicle to stop
once a large enough space is found.
Follow the displayed instructions.
When instructed to drive in reverse,
shift to R (Reverse) to engage
automatic steering. The steering wheel
will vibrate briefly as a reminder to
remove hands from the steering
wheel. Check surroundings and
continue braking or accelerating as
needed, and be prepared to stop to
avoid vehicles, pedestrians, or objects.
If the vehicle exceeds 10 km/h
(6 mph), APA is automatically
disengaged.
A progress arrow displays the status
of the parking maneuver. Depending
on the space size, additional
maneuvers may be required, and there
will be additional instructions. When
changing gears, allow the automatic
