Visualization
This feature shows handling and
performance settings on the
infotainment display when changing
drive modes.Magnetic Ride Control
This vehicle may have a semi-active
damping system called Magnetic Ride
Control. With this feature, improved
vehicle ride and handling is provided
under a variety of passenger and
loading conditions.
Locking Rear Axle
Vehicles with a locking rear axle can
give more traction on snow, mud, ice,
sand, or gravel. It works like a
standard axle most of the time, but
when traction is low, this feature will
allow the rear wheel with the most
traction to move the vehicle.
Four Corner Air Suspension
System
The Four Corner Air Suspension
feature provides full time load leveling
capability along with the benefit of
adjusting ride height for increased
convenience and capability.
{Warning
To help avoid personal injury or
death, make sure the area
underneath the vehicle and inside
the wheel wells is clear when
lowering the vehicle.
{Warning
To help avoid personal injury or
death, always select the lowest ride
height for the current driving
conditions. Higher ride heights raise
the vehicle's center of gravity,
increasing the chance of a rollover
during extreme maneuvers.
{Warning
Heavy loads on the roof rack will
make the vehicle's center of gravity
higher, increasing the possibility of
a rollover. To avoid losing control of
the vehicle, always select the
normal height setting and avoid
high speeds, sudden starts, sharp

turns, sudden braking, or abrupt
maneuvers when carrying cargo on
the roof rack.
Changing Ride Height
Press either ‘Up’or‘Down’ Ride Height
Button to open the Ride Height menu.

Ride Height Descriptions
Normal Height
Normal Height is the standard vehicle
height used for everyday driving.
Entry/Exit Height
Entry/Exit Height is 50 mm (2 in)
lower than Normal Height. This ride
height lowers the vehicle for easy
entry and exit from the vehicle as well
as providing a lower height for loading
and unloading cargo from any door or
the rear liftgate.
This ride height can be selected in the
Ride Height Menu at any vehicle
speed. When Entry/Exit Height is
select at higher speeds, the vehicle
will wait to lower until the vehicle
slows to less than 12 km/h (7 mph).
The vehicle will automatically raise to
Normal Height from Entry/Exit Height
when speed increases above 8 km/h
(5 mph). If no door has been opened
since lowering to Entry/Exit Height,
the vehicle will wait to raise to
Normal Height until 30 km/h
(19 mph). This gives the driver more flexibility when lowering to Entry/Exit
Height for passenger pick up and
drop off.
The driver can enable Automatic
Entry/Egress Mode to automatically
lower to Entry/Exit Height when the
vehicle is shifted to P (PARK).
Automatic Entry/Egress Mode may be
enabled via the infotainment screen
under Settings/Vehicle/Ride Height.
When the vehicle is higher than
Normal Height, Automatic Entry/
Egress Mode is disabled. When the
vehicle is in Tow/Haul Driver Mode,
Off-Road Driver Mode, or it senses a
trailer is connected, Automatic Entry/
Egress Mode is disabled.
Increased Height
Increased Height is 25 mm (1 in)
higher than Normal Height. This ride
height raises the vehicle for off-road
use, allows for higher speeds than
Maximum Height, and is only
available with specific optional
content.
Increased Height can be selected in
the Ride Height Menu while vehicle
speed is less than 80 km/h (50 mph).

286 DRIVING AND OPERATING
Erasing Speed Memory
The cruise control set speed is erased
from memory if
5is pressed or if the
ignition is turned off.
Weather Conditions Affecting ACC
System operation may be limited
under snow, heavy rain, or road spray
conditions.
Accessory Installations and Vehicle
Modifications
Do not install or place any object
around the front camera windshield
area that would obstruct the front
camera view.
Do not install objects on top of the
vehicle that overhang and obstruct the
front camera, such as a canoe, kayak,
or other items that can be transported
on a roof rack system. See Roof Rack
System 0102.
Do not modify the hood, headlamps,
or fog lamps, as this may limit the
camera’s ability to detect an object. Cleaning the Sensing System
The camera sensor on the windshield
behind the rearview mirror and the
radar sensors on the front of the
vehicle can become blocked by snow,
ice, dirt, mud, or debris. These areas
need to be cleaned for ACC to operate
properly.
If ACC will not operate, regular cruise
control may be available. See
“Switching Between ACC and Regular
Cruise Control
”previously in this
section. Always consider driving
conditions before using either cruise
control system.
For cleaning instructions, see
“Washing the Vehicle ”under Exterior
Care 0444.
Super Cruise
If equipped, Super Cruise can steer to
maintain lane position under certain
conditions on Super Cruise-enabled
roads that are separated from
opposing traffic. Super Cruise can also steer to perform
a lane change under certain
conditions on Super Cruise-enabled
roads.
A lane change can be initiated by the
driver using the turn signal lever.
The Super Cruise system may initiate
a lane change maneuver in following
scenarios:
.to pass slower traffic
.when the current lane is ending
ahead
.to return to the initial lane
See “Super Cruise Lane Change ”later
in this section and Turn and
Lane-Change Signals 0155.
{Warning
Super Cruise can only assist to
maintain lane position, or steer to
change lanes, when driving on
compatible roads. You must
supervise the driving task and
monitor the road conditions. You
may need to respond to traffic
