STARTING AND OPERATING101
Setting The ACC Speed Using Confirmation Mode
When Confirmation Mode is selected, and the Traffic Sign
Recognition (TSR) system detects a new speed limit sign,
the driver will confirm this new speed by pushing
the SET switch upward briefly, then releasing. This
confirmation of the new speed must be done within
five seconds of a newly detected speed limit sign being
shown in the instrument cluster display.
Setting The ACC Speed Using Automatic Mode
When Automatic Mode is selected, the ACC system will
automatically adjust the speed setting when the TSR
system detects a new speed limit sign.
The driver can reject this new speed by pushing the SET
switch upward briefly, then releasing within five seconds
of the new speed limit sign being detected and the speed
being adjusted.
Set the desired following distance as you normally would
using the ACC system
Úpage 96.
ACTIVE DRIVING ASSIST SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
OPERATION
The Active Driving Assist (ADA) system is combined with
the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system, and centers the
vehicle in the driving lane while traveling at speeds up to
93 mph (150 km/h). For ACC system operating instructions and system
limitations, see
Úpage 92.
NOTE:
The driver should always obey traffic laws and speed
limits. Never drive above applicable speed limit restric -
tions.
The driver can override ADA at any time by braking,
accelerating, or steering the vehicle.
Just like ACC, ADA will maintain a set speed as long as the
set distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front
is maintained. ADA will also keep your vehicle centered
between the lane lines, and monitor for other vehicles in
adjacent lanes by utilizing the Blind Spot Monitoring
sensors.
ADA uses sensors within the steering wheel to measure
driver attentiveness. ADA requires the driver’s hands on
the steering wheel at all times. The system will generally
aim to keep the vehicle centered in the lane, but when the
driver turns the steering wheel (e.g. to move farther away
from a large vehicle in an adjacent lane) the system will
reduce its control and enter "co-steering" mode. While in
co-steering mode, the system will provide reduced
assistance and allow the driver to control the path of the
vehicle. Once the driver stops providing input to the
steering wheel, the system will require a few seconds to
fully resume lane centering assistance, especially during
curves.
WARNING!
The Active Driving Assist (ADA) system is a convenience
system. It is not a substitute for active driver
involvement. It is always the driver’s responsibility to be
attentive of road traffic, weather conditions, vehicle
speed, distance to the vehicle ahead, position in the
lane compared to other vehicles, and 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.
You should turn off the Active Driving Assist system:
When driving in complex driving situations
(e.g. urban environments, construction zones, etc.),
adverse weather or low visibility conditions (e.g. rain,
snow, fog, sleet, dust), or adverse road conditions
(e.g. heavy traffic, worn or missing lane markings,
etc.).
When entering a highway off-ramp, when driving on
roads that are icy, snow covered, or slippery.
When driving during difficult or uncertain conditions.

104STARTING AND OPERATING
MINIMUM RISK MANEUVER
When the vehicle begins the hands-off steering wheel
warning escalation, previously described, the system will
initiate the Minimum Risk Maneuver for bringing the
vehicle to a stop.
After 23 seconds from the initial absence of the hands on
the steering wheel, the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
system will apply a brake jerk to warn the driver to take
vehicle control. If, after another 3 seconds the driver does
not take the control of the vehicle, the system will apply a
second brake jerk.
If the absence of hands on the steering wheel persists, the
system will apply automatic braking to bring the vehicle to
the stop and activate the vehicle’s hazard warning lights.
After the vehicle is stopped, the system will unlock the
doors (if previously locked).
NOTE:If the driver takes control of the vehicle during the
Minimum Risk Maneuver by placing hands on the steering
wheel or pressing the accelerator, the system Minimum
Risk Maneuver will be canceled, and the ADA system will
resume normal function.
SYSTEM STATUS
Along with changes in the system’s indicator lights (green,
yellow, and red), the system can also issue several
accompanying warnings intended to provide the driver
with enough time to react, avoid or mitigate a potential
collision.
Two haptic brake jerk warnings will be issued (red
warning light is being issued).
A steering wheel vibration warning (if enabled) will
occur if the vehicle crosses a lane marker, for example,
when driving on a tight curve. The steering wheel vibra -
tion feature can be turned on or off within the Uconnect
system
Úpage 130.
SYSTEM OPERATION/LIMITATIONS
The Active Driving Assist system DOES NOT:
Warn or prevent collisions with other vehicles
Steer your vehicle around stopped vehicles, slower
vehicles, construction equipment, pedestrians, or
animals
Respond to traffic lights or stop signs
Merge onto highways or exit off ramps
Turn your vehicle
Change lanes
React to cross traffic
NOTE:Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a core component of ADA.
For ACC system limitations, see Úpage 92.
The Active Driving Assist system may have limited or
reduced functionality when one of the following conditions
occur:
The vehicle’s radar sensors and/or forward facing
camera is damaged, covered, misaligned, or
obstructed (e.g. by mud, ice, snow, etc.)
If the suspension alignment is not correct, if the vehicle
is modified (e.g. lifting or lowering the suspension,
installing different sized wheels or tires)
Driving near highway toll booths
NOTE:If damage to the windshield occurs, have the windshield
replaced by an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING!
The DDD system is an aid for driving and does not
relieve the driver of the responsibility of driving the
vehicle. If you experience fatigue while driving, pull over
safely for a break without waiting for the DDD warnings.
Only return to the road when you are in the right
physical and mental condition to prevent endangering
yourself and other drivers.

TOWING TIPS
Before towing, practice turning, stopping, and backing up
the trailer in an area located away from heavy traffic.
Automatic Transmission
Select the DRIVE (D) range when towing. The transmission
controls include a drive strategy to avoid frequent shifting
when towing. For increased engine braking on steep
downhill grades, select the LOW range.
Cruise Control — If Equipped
Do not use on hilly terrain or with heavy loads.
When using the Cruise Control, if you experience speed
drops greater than 10 mph (16 km/h), disengage until
you can get back to cruising speed.
Use Cruise Control in flat terrain and with light loads to
maximize fuel efficiency.
