DRIVING AND OPERATING 215
Conditions that are associated with
low visibility, such as fog, rain, snow,
or road spray, may limit ACC
performance. Water droplets from rain
or snow that remain on the
windshield may also limit ACC’s
ability to detect objects.
Lighting Conditions Affecting ACC
The ACC front camera can be affected
by poor lighting conditions, and ACC
may have limited performance when:
.There are changes in brightness,
such as entering and exiting
tunnels, bridges, and overpasses.
. Low sun angles cause the camera
to not detect objects, or it is more
difficult to detect objects in the
same traffic lane.
. Lighting is poor in the evening or
early morning .
There are multiple changes in
brightness or shadows along the
vehicle roadway.
. In a tunnel without the headlamps
on, or in a tunnel when there is a
vehicle in front that does not have
its taillamps on.
. Subjected to strong light from
opposing lane traffic in the front
of the vehicle, such as high-beam
headlamps from oncoming traffic.
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 the vehicle roof.
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 can
become blocked by snow, ice, dirt,
mud, or debris. This area needs to be
cleaned for ACC to operate properly.
The vehicle headlamps may need to
be cleaned due to dirt, snow, or ice.
Objects that are not illuminated
correctly may be difficult to detect.
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 0324.

farther away the alert will occur.
Consider traffic and weather
conditions when selecting the alert
timing. The range of selectable alert
timings may not be appropriate for all
drivers and driving conditions.
If your vehicle is equipped with
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC),
changing the FCA timing setting
automatically changes the following
gap setting (Far, Medium, or Near).
Following Distance Indicator
The following distance to a moving
vehicle ahead in your path is indicated

some very low speed pedestrian
crashes or reduce pedestrian injury.
FPB can automatically brake to
detected pedestrians between 8 km/h
(5 mph) and 80 km/h (50 mph).
Automatic braking levels may be
reduced under certain conditions,
such as higher speeds.
If this happens, Automatic Braking
may engage the Electric Parking Brake
(EPB) to hold the vehicle at a stop.
Release the EPB. A firm press of the
accelerator pedal will also release
Automatic Braking and the EPB.
{Warning
FPB may alert or automatically
brake the vehicle suddenly in
situations where it is unexpected
and undesired. It could falsely alert
or brake for objects similar in shape
or size to pedestrians, including
shadows. This is normal operation
and the vehicle does not need
service. To override Automatic
Braking, firmly press the accelerator
pedal, if it is safe to do so.Automatic Braking can be disabled
through vehicle personalization. See
“Front Pedestrian Detection
”in
“Collision/Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0135.
{Warning
Using the Front Pedestrian Braking
system while towing a trailer could
cause you to lose control of the
vehicle and crash. Turn the system
to Alert or Off when towing a
trailer.
Cleaning the System
If FPB does not seem to operate
properly, cleaning the outside of the
windshield in front of the rearview
mirror may correct the issue.
Night Vision System
If equipped, this system can help the
driver see and alert the driver to
pedestrians or large animals ahead of
the vehicle beyond the area lit by the
headlamps. A thermal heat image of
the view ahead is displayed when it is dark enough outside. If a pedestrian
or large animal is detected more than
25 m (82 ft) away, an amber
pedestrian or animal icon displays and
a box appears around the pedestrian
or animal. When the system detects
that the vehicle is approaching a
pedestrian ahead much too quickly,
the box changes to red.
With the Front Pedestrian Braking
system turned on, Night Vision
provides a red Head-Up Display (HUD)
alert when the system detects that the
vehicle is approaching a pedestrian
ahead much too quickly. In addition,
an alert beeps or the Safety Alert Seat
pulses, if equipped. See
Front
Pedestrian Braking (FPB) System 0230.

238 DRIVING AND OPERATING
{Warning
Using LKA while towing a trailer or
on slippery roads could cause loss
of control of the vehicle and a
crash. Turn the system off.
How the System Works
LKA uses a camera sensor installed on
the windshield ahead of the rearview
mirror to detect lane markings. It may
provide brief steering assist if it
detects an unintended lane departure.
It may further provide an audible alert
or the driver seat may pulse indicating
that a lane marking has been crossed.
To turn LKA on and off, press
A
on the center stack. If equipped, the
indicator light on the button comes
on when LKA is on and turns off
when LKA is disabled.
When on,
Ais white, if equipped,
indicating that the system is not ready
to assist.
Ais green if LKA is ready
to assist. LKA may assist by gently
turning the steering wheel if the vehicle approaches a detected lane
marking.
Ais amber when
assisting. It may also provide a Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) alert by
flashing
Aamber if the vehicle
crosses a detected lane marking.
Additionally, there may be three
beeps, or the driver seat may pulse
three times, on the right or left,
depending on the lane departure
direction.
Take Steering
The LKA system does not
continuously steer the vehicle. If LKA
does not detect active driver steering,
an alert and chime may be provided.
Steer the vehicle to dismiss. LKA may
become temporarily unavailable after
repeated take steering alerts.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
The system performance may be
affected by:
. Close vehicles ahead.
. Sudden lighting changes, such as
when driving through tunnels. .
Banked roads.
. Roads with poor lane markings,
such as two-lane roads.
A system unavailable message may
display if the camera is blocked. The
LKA system does not need service.
A camera blocked message may
display if the camera is blocked. Some
driver assistance systems may have
reduced performance or not work at
all. An LKA or LDW unavailable
message may display if the systems
are temporarily unavailable. This
message could be due to a blocked
camera. The LKA system does not
need service. Clean the outside of the
windshield behind the rearview mirror.
LKA assistance and/or LDW alerts
may occur due to tar marks, shadows,
cracks in the road, temporary or
construction lane markings, or other
road imperfections. This is normal
system operation; the vehicle does not
need service. Turn LKA off if these
conditions continue.
