ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC)
If your vehicle is equipped with adaptive cruise
control the controls operate exactly the same
as the normal (fixed speed) speed control with
one difference. You can set a specified distance
you would like to maintain between you and the
vehicle in front of you.
If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead,
ACC will apply limited braking or accelera-
tion automatically to maintain a preset fol-
lowing distance, while matching the speed
of the vehicle ahead.
If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead
of you, ACC will maintain a fixed set speed.
ACC ON/OFF
• Push and release the Adaptive CruiseControl (ACC) ON/OFF button.
ACC READY will appear on the instrument cluster to indicate the ACC is on.
• Push and release the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) ON/OFF button a second time to turn the system off.
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Off will appear on the instrument cluster to indicate the ACC is off.
Distance Setting (ACC Only)
The specified following distance for ACC can be set by varying the distance setting between
four bars (longest), three bars (long), two bars (medium) and one bar (short). Using this
distance setting and the vehicle speed, ACC calculates and sets the distance to the vehicle
ahead. This distance setting displays in the EVIC.
•
To increase the distance setting, press the Distance Setting—Increase button and release.
Each time the button is pressed, the distance setting increases by one bar (longer).
•To decrease the distance setting, press the Distance Setting—Decrease button and release.
Each time the button is pressed, the distance setting decreases by one bar (shorter).
ACC Operation At Stop
If 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 ACC with Stop system will cancel and the brakes will ramp-out. Driver
intervention will be required at this moment.

FORWARD COLLISION WARNING (FCW) WITH MITIGATION
The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system with mitigation provides the driver with
audible warnings, visual warnings within the EVIC, and may apply a brake jerk to warn the
driver when it detects a potential frontal collision. The warnings and limited braking are
intended to provide the driver with enough time to react, avoid or mitigate the potential
collision.
NOTE:
FCW monitors the information from the forward looking sensors as well as the Electronic
Brake Controller (EBC), to calculate the probability of a forward collision. When the system
determines that a forward collision is probable, the driver will be provided with audible and
visual warnings and may provide a brake jerk warning. If the driver does not take action
based upon these progressive warnings, then the system will provide a limited level of
active braking to help slow the vehicle and mitigate the potential forward collision. If the
driver reacts to the warnings by braking and the system determines that the driver intends
to avoid the collision by braking but has not applied sufficient brake force, the system will
compensate and provide additional brake force as required.
Turning FCW ON Or OFF
NOTE:
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 when you are farther away and it applies limited braking. This
gives you the most reaction time to avoid a possible collision.
The forward collision button is on the switch panel that is located in the center of the
instrument panel.
• To turn the FCW system OFF, press the forward collision button once (LED turns on).
• To turn the FCW system back ON, press the forward collision button again (LED turns off).
Changing FCW Status
The FCW feature has two settings and can be changed within the Uconnect® System
Screen:
•Far
• Near
NOTE:
The FCW and active braking settings can only be changed when the vehicle is in PARK.

When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able to detect or
signal low tire pressure as intended. TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons,
including the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning properly. Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale
after replacing one or more tires or wheels on your vehicle, to ensure that the replacement
or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.
NOTE:
Tire pressures change by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) per 12° F (7° C) of air temperature
change. Keep this in mind when checking tire pressure inside a garage, especially in the
Winter. Example: If garage temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the outside temperature is 32°F
(0°C), then the cold tire inflation pressure should be increased by 3 psi (21 kPa), which equals
1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (7°C) for this outside temperature condition.
CAUTION!
The TPMS has been optimized for the original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures and warning have been established for the tire size equipped on your vehicle.
Undesirable system operation or sensor damage may result when using replacement
equipment that is not of the same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket wheels can cause
sensor damage. Do not use tire sealant from a can, or balance beads if your vehicle is
equipped with a TPMS, as damage to the sensors may result.
BRAKE- Brake Warning Light
This light monitors various brake functions, including brake fluid level and parking brake
application. If the brake light turns on it may indicate that the parking brake is applied, that the
brake fluid level is low, or that there is a problem with the anti-lock brake system reservoir.
If the light remains on when the parking brake has been disengaged, and the fluid level is at
the full mark on the master cylinder reservoir, it indicates a possible brake hydraulic system
malfunction or that a problem with the Brake Booster has been detected by the Anti-Lock
Brake System (ABS)/Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system. In this case, the light will
remain on until the condition has been corrected. If the problem is related to the brake
booster, the ABS pump will run when applying the brake and a brake pedal pulsation may be
felt during each stop.
The dual brake system provides a reserve braking capacity in the event of a failure to a
portion of the hydraulic system. A leak in either half of the dual brake system is indicated by
the Brake Warning Light, which will turn on when the brake fluid level in the master cylinder
has dropped below a specified level. The light will remain on until the cause is corrected.
Vehicles equipped with the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), are also equipped with Electronic
Brake Force Distribution (EBD). In the event of an EBD failure, the Brake Warning Light will
turn on along with the ABS Light. Immediate repair to the ABS system is required.
