STARTING THE VEHICLE
Before starting your vehicle, adjust your seat, adjust both
inside and outside mirrors, and fasten your seat belts.
WARNING!
•When exiting the vehicle, always remove the key fob
from the vehicle and lock your vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle.
• Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is
dangerous for a number of reasons. A child or others
could be seriously or fatally injured. Children
should be warned not to touch the parking brake,
brake pedal or the transmission gear selector.
• Do not leave the key fob in or near the vehicle, or in
a location accessible to children, and do not leave the
ignition of a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-
N-Go in the ACC or ON/RUN mode. A child could
operate power windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.
• Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat build-up may
cause serious injury or death. Request Propulsion System Active (PSA) or “Vehicle is
Ready to Drive” mode with the gear selector in the PARK
position. Apply the brake before shifting to any driving
range.
NOTE:
In case the ignition switch does not change with the
push of a button, the key fob may have a low or dead
battery. In this situation, a back up method can be used to
operate the ignition switch. Put the nose side of the key fob
(side opposite of the Emergency Key) against the ENGINE
START/STOP button and push to operate the ignition
switch.
Normal Starting
NOTE: Normal starting of either a cold or a warm engine
is obtained without pumping or pressing the accelerator
pedal.
Achieving vehicle READY using the ENGINE START/
STOP button.
1. The transmission must be in PARK or NEUTRAL.

battery state of charge and engine temperature.
4. If you wish to terminate Vehicle is Ready to Drive mode, push the button again.
ENGINE START/STOP Button Functions — With Driv-
er ’s Foot OFF The Brake Pedal (In PARK Or NEUTRAL
Position)
The ENGINE START/STOP button operates similar to an
ignition switch by providing three positions: OFF, ACC
and RUN. To change the ignition mode without starting
the vehicle (to power certain accessories), follow these
steps:
1. Starting with the ignition in the OFF mode.
2. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button once, without brake pedal being pressed, to place the ignition in the
ACC mode (instrument cluster will display “ACC”).
3. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a second time, without brake pedal being pressed, to place the ignition
in the RUN mode (instrument cluster will display
“Ignition or Accessory On”). NOTE:
•The vehicle is not able to be driven in the “Ignition or
Accessory On” mode, see “Achieving Vehicle Is Ready
To Drive Mode Using the ENGINE START / STOP
Button” previously defined in this section for further
information.
• The rotary gear selector will turn but only PARK and
NEUTRAL are accessible in the “Ignition or Accessory
On” mode.
4. Push the ENGINE START/STOP button a third time, without brake pedal being pressed, to return the igni-
tion to the OFF mode (instrument cluster will display
“OFF”).
NOTE: Only press one pedal at a time while driving the
vehicle. Torque performance of the vehicle could be re-
duced if both pedals are pressed at the same time. If
pressure is detected on both pedals simultaneously, a
warning message will display in the instrument cluster. For
further information, refer to “Instrument Cluster Display”
in “Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel”.

AutoPark
AutoPark is a supplemental feature to assist in placing the
vehicle in PARK should the situations on the following
pages occur. It is a back up system and should not be relied
upon as the primary method by which the driver shifts the
vehicle into PARK.
The conditions under which AutoPark will engage are
outlined on the following pages.
WARNING!
•Driver inattention could lead to failure to place the
vehicle in PARK. ALWAYS DO A VISUAL CHECK
that your vehicle is in PARK by verifying that a solid
(not blinking) “P” is indicated in the instrument
cluster display and near the gear selector. If the P
indicator is blinking, your vehicle is not in PARK. As
an added precaution, always apply the parking brake
when exiting the vehicle.
• AutoPark is a supplemental feature. It is not de-
signed to replace the need to shift your vehicle into
PARK. It is a back up system and should not be
relied upon as the primary method by which the
driver shifts the vehicle into PARK. ALWAYS DO A VISUAL CHECK
that your vehicle is in
PARK by looking for the “P” in the Instrument Cluster
Display and on the shifter. As an added precaution, always
apply the parking brake.
If the vehicle is not in PARK and the driver attempts to
turn off the engine, if certain conditions are met, the
vehicle will AutoPark, automatically shifting the vehi-
cle’s transmission to the PARK position. The rotary
shifter will automatically reset itself to the PARK posi-
tion. The vehicle’s ignition will then move to the OFF
position (Engine OFF). When AutoPark is activated the
instrument cluster will display the message “AutoPark
Engaged”
AutoPark will engage when all of these conditions are met:
• Vehicle is equipped with a rotary selector
• Vehicle is not in PARK
• Vehicle Speed is 1.2 MPH (1.9 km/h) or less
• Driver has pushed the ENGINE START/STOP BUTTON
If the vehicle is not in PARK and the driver exits the
vehicle with the engine running, if certain conditions are
met, the vehicle will AutoPark, automatically shifting the
vehicle’s transmission to the PARK position. The Electric

CAUTION!(Continued)
•Before shifting into any gear, make sure your foot is
firmly pressing the brake pedal with the exception of
shifting between Drive and Low. Shifting between
Drive and Low can occur without any brake applica-
tion.
To Turn On The Engine Using ENGINE START/STOP
Button
1. The transmission must be in PARK or NEUTRAL.
2. Press and hold the brake pedal while pushing the ENGINE START/STOP button once.
To release the parking brake manually, the ignition switch
must be in the ON/RUN position. Press on the brake
pedal, then push the park brake switch momentarily.
If the driver shifts into PARK while moving, the vehicle
may Park.
Park will engage ONLYwhen vehicle speed is 1.2 MPH
(1.9 km/h) or less.
The MESSAGE “ Vehicle Speed is Too High to Shift to P”
will display in the Instrument Cluster Display if vehicle
speed is above 1.2 MPH (1.9 km/h). The gear position indicator will blink continuously until the selector is re-
turned to the proper position, or the requested shift can be
completed.
WARNING!
If vehicle speed is not below 1.2 MPH (1.9 km/h) when
the driver shifts into PARK, the transmission will
default to NEUTRAL until the vehicle speed drops
below 1.2 MPH (1.9 km/h) and the above condition are
met, enabling AutoPark. A vehicle left in the NEU-
TRAL position can roll. As an added precaution, al-
ways apply the parking brake when exiting the ve-
hicle.
Cold Weather Operation
If the outside ambient temperature is 5°F (-15°C) or below,
the instrument cluster will request the vehicle to be
plugged in to provide conditioning of the vehicle high
voltage battery.
NOTE:
“Electric Only” mode may have reduced availabil-
ity in colder ambient temperatures due to HVAC demand.

After Starting
To optimize energy efficiency, the vehicle will automati-
cally control engine operation.
To Turn Off The Vehicle Using ENGINE
START/STOP Button
1. Place the gear selector in PARK, then push and releasethe ENGINE START/STOP button.
2. The ignition switch will return to the OFF position.
3. If the gear selector is not in PARK, with vehicle speed less than 5 mph (8 km/h), when the ENGINE START/
STOP button is pushed, the instrument cluster display
will display a “Vehicle Not In Park” message, and the
vehicle will remain running.
4. If the gear selector is not in PARK, with vehicle speed greater than 5 mph (8 km/h), when the ENGINE
START/STOP button is pushed continuously for at least
two seconds (or three short pushes in a row) the vehicle
ignition mode will exit Drive Readymode and enter
Accessory mode. Never leave a vehicle out of the
PARK position, or it could roll. NOTE:
•
This vehicle is equipped with an automatic shutdown
feature. If the vehicle is left in a “READY” state (vehicle
running) with the shifter in “PARK” for one hour, the
vehicle will automatically turn itself off.
• The vehicle provides automatic notification, using a
three Horn Chirp Alert, cluster chiming, and a cluster
message (Key Fob has Left the Vehicle) if the vehicle
was not turned OFF (still Ready to Drive) and a valid
FOB for the vehicle is not detected within the passenger
cabin, following the opening and closing of any passen-
ger compartment door (requires all doors to be closed
before the FOB check will occur). These automatic alerts
are to remind the driver to turn OFF the vehicle before
leaving it, as well as, to let the driver know that the
vehicle’s FOB may have been unintentionally removed
from the vehicle by an exiting passenger. After provid-
ing the horn chirp alert, additional auto chirps will be
inhibited until the shifter has been moved out of Park or
ignition cycled.

WARNING!(Continued)
and, most importantly, brake operation to ensure safe
operation of the vehicle under all road conditions.
Your complete attention is always required while
driving to maintain safe control of your vehicle.
Failure to follow these warnings can result in a
collision and death or serious personal injury.
• The ACC system:
• Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming vehicles,
and stationary objects (e.g., a stopped vehicle in a
traffic jam or a disabled vehicle).
• Cannot take street, traffic, and weather conditions
into account, and may be limited upon adverse
sight distance conditions.
• Does not always fully recognize complex driving
conditions, which can result in wrong or missing
distance warnings.
• Will bring the vehicle to a complete stop while
following a target vehicle and hold the vehicle for
approximately 3 minutes in the stop position. If the
target vehicle does not start moving within 3
minutes the parking brake will be activated, and
the ACC system will be cancelled.
(Continued)
WARNING! (Continued)
You should switch off the ACC system:
•When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy snow, sleet,
heavy traffic, and complex driving situations (i.e., in
highway construction zones).
• When entering a turn lane or highway off ramp;
when driving on roads that are winding, icy, snow-
covered, slippery, or have steep uphill or downhill
slopes.
• When circumstances do not allow safe driving at a
constant speed.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Operation
The speed control buttons (located on the right side of the
steering wheel) operates the ACC system.
310 STARTING AND OPERATING
Page 317 of 620

The driver’s preferred units can be selected through the
instrument cluster. Refer to ”Instrument Cluster Display”
in “Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel” for more
information. The speed decrement shown is dependant on
the chosen speed unit of U.S. (mph) or Metric (km/h):
U.S. Speed (mph)
•Pushing the SET (-)button once will result ina1mph
decrease in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the button
results in a decrease of 1 mph.
• If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will
continue to decrease in 5 mph decrements until the
button is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected
in the instrument cluster display.
Metric Speed (km/h)
• Pushing the SET (-)button once will result in a 1 km/h
decrease in set speed. Each subsequent tap of the button
results in a decrease of 1 km/h.
• If the button is continually pushed, the set speed will
continue to decrease in 10 km/h decrements until the
button is released. The decrease in set speed is reflected
in the instrument cluster display. NOTE:
•
When you override and push the SET (+)button or SET
(-) buttons, the new set speed will be the current speed
of the vehicle.
• When you use the SET (-)button to decelerate, if the
powertrain braking power does not slow the vehicle
sufficiently to reach the set speed, the brake system will
automatically slow the vehicle.
• The ACC system decelerates the vehicle to a full stop
when following a target vehicle. If an ACC host vehicle
follows a target vehicle to a standstill, after two seconds
the driver will either have to push the RES (resume)
button, or apply the accelerator pedal to reengage the
ACC to the existing set speed.
• The ACC system maintains set speed when driving up
hill and down hill. However, a slight speed change on
moderate hills is normal. When driving up hill and
down hill, the ACC system will cancel if the braking
temperature exceeds normal range (overheated).

STARTING AND OPERATING 315
Page 320 of 620

NOTE:The “Brake!” Screen in the instrument cluster
display is a warning for the driver to take action and does
not necessarily mean that the Forward Collision Warning
system is applying the brakes autonomously.
Overtake Aid
When driving with ACC engaged and following a vehicle,
the system will provide an additional acceleration up to the
ACC set speed to assist in passing the vehicle. This
additional acceleration is triggered when the driver utilizes
the left turn signal and will only be active when passing on
the left hand side.
ACC Operation At Stop
In the event that the ACC system brings your vehicle to a
standstill while following a target vehicle, if the target
vehicle starts moving within two seconds of your vehicle
coming to a standstill, your vehicle will resume motion
without the need for any driver action.
If the target vehicle does not start moving within two
seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, the driver
will either have to push the RES (resume) button, or apply
the accelerator pedal to reengage the ACC to the existing
Set Speed.
NOTE: After the ACC system holds your vehicle at a
standstill for approximately 3 consecutive minutes, the
parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will
be cancelled.
While ACC is holding your vehicle at a standstill, if the
driver seatbelt is unbuckled or the driver door is opened,
the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system
will be cancelled.

using the ParkView Rear Back Up Camera. Always
check carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to
check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstruc-
tions, or blind spots before backing up. You are re-
sponsible for the safety of your surroundings and must
continue to pay attention while backing up. Failure to
do so can result in serious injury or death.
CAUTION!
•To avoid vehicle damage, ParkView should only be
used as a parking aid. The ParkView camera is unable
to view every obstacle or object in your drive path.
• To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle must be driven
slowly when using ParkView to be able to stop in
time when an obstacle is seen. It is recommended
that the driver look frequently over his/her shoulder
when using ParkView.
SURROUND VIEW CAMERA SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with the Surround View
Camera System that allows you to see an on-screen image
of the surroundings and top view of your vehicle when-
ever the gear selector is put into REVERSE or a different
view is selected through the on screen soft buttons. The
top view of the vehicle will show which doors are open.
The image will be displayed on the touchscreen display
along with a caution note “Check Entire Surroundings”
across the top of the screen. After five seconds, this note
will disappear. The Surround View Camera System is
comprised of four sequential cameras located in the front
grille, rear liftgate and side mirrors.
NOTE: The Surround View Camera System has program-
mable settings that may be selected through the Uconnect
System. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for
further information.
When the vehicle is shifted into REVERSE, the rear camera
view and top view is the default view of the system.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (with camera
delay turned on), the camera image will continue to be
displayed for up to 10 seconds after shifting out of RE-
VERSE unless the vehicle speed exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h),
