1-14 In Brief hold to accelerate. If cruise control
is already active, use to increase
vehicle speed.
COAST/SET: Press briefly to set
the speed and activate cruise
control, or press and hold to
decelerate. If cruise control is
already active, use to decrease
vehicle speed.
CANCEL: Press to disengage
cruise control without erasing the
set speed from memory.
See Cruise Control on page 9-28 .
Trip Computer The vehicle may have a trip
computer. It provides the driver with
driving information such as the
driving distance for the remaining
fuel, average fuel economy, and
instant fuel economy.
Use the trip odometer reset stem in
the cluster to cycle through the
available trip computer displays.
See Trip Computer on page 5-20 .Rear Vision
Camera (RVC) If equipped, RVC displays a view of
the area behind the vehicle, on the
infotainment system display, when
the vehicle is shifted into
R (Reverse).
See Rear Vision Camera (RVC) on
page 9-31 .
Parking Assist If equipped, this system uses
sensors on the rear bumper to
assist with parking and avoiding
objects while in R (Reverse).
It operates at speeds less than
5 km/h (3 mph). Rear Parking Assist
(RPA) uses audible beeps to
provide distance and system
information.
Keep the sensors on the vehicle's
rear bumper clean to ensure proper
operation.
See Parking Assist on page 9-30 .Power Outlets The accessory power outlets can be
used to plug in electrical equipment,
such as a cell phone or an MP3
player.
The vehicle may have two
accessory power outlets: .
Near the bottom of the center
stack. .
On the rear of the center floor

Driving and Operating 9-252. Pull the parking brake handle up
until you can press the release
button.
3. Hold the release button in as
you move the brake handle all
the way down.
{ CautionDriving with the parking brake on
can overheat the brake system
and cause premature wear or
damage to brake system parts.
Make sure that the parking brake
is fully released and the brake
warning light is off before driving.
Parking Brake Break-in
Break-in the brake shoes whenever
the effect of the parking brake is
weakened or whenever the brake
shoes and/or drums are replaced, in
order to assure the best brake
performance. This procedure can be
performed at the dealer. Ride Control Systems Traction Control/
Electronic Stability
Control System Operation The vehicle has a Traction Control
System (TCS) and Electronic
Stability Control, an electronic
stability control system. These
systems use various sensors to
monitor driver inputs and vehicle
motion. Under certain driving
conditions, the TCS and Electronic
Stability Control systems help to
perform the following functions: .
Control brake pressure to reduce
wheel slip on one slipping drive
wheel so power is transferred to
a non – slipping drive wheel on
the same axle. .
Control brake pressure and
engine output to reduce drive
wheel slip based on vehicle
speed (traction control function). .
Control brake pressure at
individual wheels and engine
output to help the driver maintain
control of the vehicle in the
following conditions:
‐ Understeer (vehicle tends to
not follow the steered path
despite increased steering
input)
‐ Oversteer (vehicle tends to
spin due to certain road or
driving conditions)
TCS and Electronic Stability Control
can help the driver to maintain
control of the vehicle, but cannot
prevent loss of vehicle control in all
driving situations.
When the TCS and Electronic
Stability Control systems operate,
the
d indicator in the instrument
cluster flashes to note the following: .
The road may be slippery or the
system may determine some
action is required to help keep
the vehicle on the steered path.

Driving and Operating 9-31Warning (Continued) or bent, the sensing zone
may be altered causing
inaccurate measurement of
obstacles or false alarms.
The Rear Parking Assist (RPA)
sounds a tone to warn the driver of
obstacles near the rear bumper
when the shift lever is in
R (Reverse). The system may not
detect objects at speeds above
5 km/h (3 mph) and may not detect
certain angular or moving objects.
The RPA detects objects up to 1.8 m
(5.9 ft) from the rear bumper with a
decreased coverage area at the
outer corners of the bumper. As you
move closer to the obstacle, the rate
of the tone increases. When the
obstacle is less than 25 cm (10 in)
away, the tone will sound
continuously. If the RPA detects a
stationary or receding object further
than 25 cm (10 in) from the side of
the vehicle, the tone will sound for only three seconds. Once the
system detects an object
approaching, the tone will sound
again.
The RPA automatically turns on
when the shift lever is placed in
R (Reverse) and the ignition switch
is in ON. The RPA OFF switch on
the instrument panel allows the
driver to turn the RPA on and off. To
turn the RPA off, the ignition switch
must be placed in ON. An indicator
light on the switch will illuminate
when the system is turned off. If the
indicator light illuminates when the
RPA is not turned off, it may indicate
a malfunction in the RPA.
Keep the RPA sensors, located on
the rear bumper, free from snow,
ice, and large accumulations of dirt.
Do not clean the sensors with sharp
objects. If the sensors are covered,
it will affect the accuracy of
the RPA. Rear Vision
Camera (RVC) When the shift lever is shifted into
R (Reverse), the display shows the
view to the rear of the vehicle.
{ Warning .
Failure to follow the warnings
and instructions for proper
use of the Rear Vision
Camera (RVC) could result in
serious injury or death. .
The RVC is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for
proper backing. Always turn
and look out the windows,
and check mirrors to be sure
that it is safe to move before
operating the vehicle. Always
back up slowly. .
The system is designed as an
aid to the driver in showing
large stationary objects
