width CHRYSLER PACIFICA 2017 2.G Owners Manual

When the vehicle is started, the BSM warning light will
momentarily illuminate in both outside rear view mirrors
to let the driver know that the system is operational. The
BSM system sensors operate when the vehicle is in any
forward gear or REVERSE and enters stand-by mode
when the vehicle is in PARK.The BSM detection zone covers approximately one lane
width on both sides of the vehicle 12 ft (3.8 m). The zone
length starts at the outside rear view mirror and extends
approximately 10 ft (3 m) beyond the rear bumper of the
vehicle. The BSM system monitors the detection zones on
both sides of the vehicle when the vehicle speed reaches
approximately 6 mph (10 km/h) or higher and will alert
the driver of vehicles in these areas.
NOTE:
•
The BSM system DOES NOT alert the driver about
rapidly approaching vehicles that are outside the de-
tection zones.
• The BSM system detection zone DOES NOT change if
your vehicle is towing a trailer. Therefore, visually
verify the adjacent lane is clear for both your vehicle
and trailer before making a lane change. If the trailer or
other object (i.e., bicycle, sports equipment) extends
beyond the side of your vehicle, this may result in false

delay turned OFF), the rear camera mode is exited and
the navigation or audio screen appears again.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (with camera
delay turned ON), the camera image will continue to bedisplayed for up to 10 seconds after shifting out of

ing out of REVERSE can be disabled via a touch screen
button personalization entry in the camera settings
menu.
When enabled, active guide lines are overlaid on the

The following table shows the approximate distances for each zone:

Yellow 1 ft - 6.5 ft (30 cm - 2 m)
Green 6.5 ft or greater (2 m or greater)
498 STARTING AND OPERATING

Tongue Weight (TW)
The tongue weight is the downward force exerted on the
hitch ball by the trailer. You must consider this as part of
the load on your vehicle.
Frontal Area
The frontal area is the maximum height multiplied by the
maximum width of the front of a trailer.
Trailer Sway Control
The trailer sway control can be a mechanical telescoping
link that can be installed between the hitch receiver and
the trailer tongue that typically provides adjustable fric-
tion associated with the telescoping motion to dampen
any unwanted trailer swaying motions while traveling.If equipped, the electronic Trailer Sway Control (TSC)
recognizes a swaying trailer and automatically applies
individual wheel brakes and/or reduces engine power to
attempt to eliminate the trailer sway.
Weight-Carrying Hitch
A weight-carrying hitch supports the trailer tongue
weight, just as if it were luggage located at a hitch ball or
some other connecting point of the vehicle. These kinds
of hitches are the most popular on the market today and
they are commonly used to tow small and medium sized
trailers.

•ParkView Backup Camera Delay — If Equipped
Press the “Parkview Backup camera Delay” button
on the touchscreen to turn the ParkView Delay ON or
OFF.
• ParkView Backup Camera Active Guide Lines — If
Equipped When this feature is enabled, active (dynamic) grid
lines are overlaid on the Rear Backup Camera image
to illustrate the width of the vehicle and its projected
back up path based on the steering wheel position. A
dashed center line overlay indicates the center of the
vehicle to assist with parking or aligning to a hitch/
receiver.
• Forward Collision Warning On/Off — If Equipped
The default status of FCW is “On”, this allows the system
to warn you of a possible collision with the vehicle in front of you. The forward collision button is located in
the Uconnect display in the controls settings. To turn the
FCW system OFF, push the forward collision button once
to turn the system OFF. To turn the FCW system back
ON, push the forward collision button again to turn the
system ON. Changing the FCW status to “OFF” prevents
the system from warning you of a possible collision with
the vehicle in front of you.
•
Forward Collision Warning-Plus (FCW+) — If
Equipped
The Front Collision Warning (FCW+) feature can be can
be set to Far, Med or Near. The default status of FCW+ is
the Med setting. This means the system will warn you of
a possible collision with the vehicle in front of you when
you are a relatively medium distance away. This gives
you the medium reaction time. To change the setting for
a more dynamic driving experience, select the Near
setting. This warns you of a possible collision when you
