into the vehicle.
NOTE:In cold weather, use of Recirculation mode
may lead to excessive window fogging. The Recircula-
tion mode is not allowed in Mix, Floor and Defrost
modes to improve window clearing operation. Recir-
culation will be disabled automatically if these modes
are selected. Attempting to use Recirculation while in
these modes will cause the LED in the control button
to blink and then turn off.
AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL
(ATC)
ATC Hard-keys are located in the center of the instru-
ment panel.
Soft-keys are accessible on the Uconnect Touch™
system screen.
Automatic Operation
1. Press the AUTO hard-key or soft-key button (9) on the Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) Panel.
2. Next, adjust the temperature you would like the system to maintain by adjusting the driver and pas-
senger temperature hard or soft control buttons (6,
7, 10, 11). Once the desired temperature is dis-
played, the system will achieve and automatically
maintain that comfort level.
3. When the system is set up for your comfort level, it is not necessary to change the settings. You will
experience the greatest efficiency by simply allowing
the system to function automatically. NOTE:
• It is not necessary to move the temperature settings
for cold or hot vehicles. The system automatically
adjusts the temperature, mode and blower speed to
provide comfort as quickly as possible.
• The temperature can be displayed in U.S. or Metric
units by selecting the US/M customer-programmable
feature. Refer to the “Uconnect Touch™ System Set-
tings” in this section of the manual.
To provide you with maximum comfort in the Auto-
matic mode, during cold start-ups the blower fan will
remain on low until the engine warms up. The blower
will increase in speed and transition into Auto mode.
Manual Operation
The system allows for manual selection of blower
speed, air distribution mode, A/C status and recircula-
tion control.
The blower fan speed can be set to any fixed speed by
adjusting the blower control. The fan will now operate
at a fixed speed until additional speeds are selected.
This allows the front occupants to control the volume
of air circulated in the vehicle and cancel the Auto
mode.
The operator can also select the direction of the
airflow by selecting one of the available mode settings.
A/C operation and Recirculation control can also be
manually selected in Manual operation.

LOOSE FUEL FILLER CAP MESSAGE
If the vehicle diagnostic system determines that the
fuel filler cap is loose, improperly installed, or damaged,
the word “gASCAP” will display in the odometer. If this
occurs, tighten the fuel filler cap until a “clicking” sound
is heard and press the TRIP ODOMETER button to
turn off the message. If the problem persists, the
message will appear the next time the vehicle is
started.
A loose, improperly installed, or damaged fuel filler cap
may also turn on the MIL.POWER STEERING
The standard power steering system will give you good
vehicle response and increased ease of maneuverability
in tight spaces. The system will provide mechanical
steering capability if power assist is lost.
If for some reason the power assist is interrupted, it
will still be possible to steer your vehicle. Under these
conditions, you will observe a substantial increase in
steering effort, especially at very low vehicle speeds
and during parking maneuvers.
NOTE:
• Increased noise levels at the end of the steering
wheel travel are considered normal and do not indicate
that there is a problem with the power steering system.
• Upon initial start-up in cold weather, the power
steering pump may make noise for a short amount of
time. This is due to the cold, thick fluid in the steering
system. This noise should be considered normal, and it
does not in any way damage the steering system.
WARNING!
Continued operation with reduced
power steering assist could pose a safety
risk to yourself and others. Service should be
obtained as soon as possible.

The TPMS consists of the following components:
• Receiver module
• Four Tire Pressure Monitoring Sensors
• Three Trigger modules (mounted in three of the fourwheel-wells)
• Various Tire Pressure Monitoring System messages, which display in the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC)
• Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light
Tire Pressure Monitoring Low Pressure
Warnings
The Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will
illuminate in the instrument cluster and a chime
will sound when tire pressure is low in one or
more of the four active road tires. In addition, the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) will dis-
play a graphic showing the pressure values of each tire
with the low tire pressure values flashing. (fig. 101) Should this occur, you should stop as soon as possible
and inflate the tires with low pressure (those flashing in
the EVIC graphic) to the vehicle’s recommended cold
placard pressure value. Once the system receives the
updated tire pressures, the system will automatically
update, the graphic display in the EVIC will stop flash-
ing, and the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will
turn off. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to
20 minutes above 25 km/h in order for the TPMS to
receive this information.

Check TPMS Warning
When a system fault is detected, the Tire Pressure
Monitoring Telltale Light will flash on and off for 75 sec-
onds and then remain on solid. The system fault will
also sound a chime. In addition, the EVIC will display a
"CHECK TPM SYSTEM" message for three seconds
and then display dashes (- -) in place of the pressure
value to indicate which sensor is not being received.
(fig. 102)
If the ignition switch is cycled, this sequence will repeat,
providing the system fault still exists. If the system fault
no longer exists, the Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale
Light will no longer flash, and the "CHECK TPM SYS-
TEM" message will no longer display, and a pressure
value will display in place of the dashes. A system fault
can occur due to any of the following:1. Jamming due to electronic devices or driving next to
facilities emitting the same radio frequencies as the
TPMS sensors.
2. Installing some form of aftermarket window tinting that affects radio wave signals.
3. Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel housings.
4. Using tire chains on the vehicle.
5. Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS sensors.
NOTE:
1. The compact spare tire does not have a tire pres-
sure monitoring sensor. Therefore, the TPMS will not
monitor the pressure in the compact spare tire.
2. If you install the compact spare tire in place of a road
tire that has a pressure below the low-pressure warn-
ing limit, upon the next ignition switch cycle, the TPMS
Telltale Light will remain on and a chime will sound. In
addition, the graphic in the EVIC will still display a
flashing pressure value.
3. After driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above
25 km/h, the TPMS Telltale Light will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then remain on solid. In addition, the
EVIC will display a "CHECK TPM SYSTEM" message
for three seconds and then display dashes (- -) in place
of the pressure value.
4. For each subsequent ignition switch cycle, a chime
will sound, the TPMS Telltale Light will flash on and off
for 75 seconds and then remain on solid, and the EVIC(fig. 102)

will display a "CHECK TPM SYSTEM" message for
three seconds and then display dashes (- -) in place of
the pressure value.
5. Once you repair or replace the original road tire and
reinstall it on the vehicle in place of the compact spare,
the TPMS will update automatically. In addition, the
TPMS Telltale Light will turn off and the graphic in the
EVIC will display a new pressure value instead of dashes
(- -), as long as no tire pressure is below the low-
pressure warning limit in any of the four active road
tires. The vehicle may need to be driven for up to
20 minutes above 25 km/h in order for the TPMS to
receive this information.
TPMS Deactivation And Reactivation
The TPMS can be deactivated if replacing all four wheel
and tire assemblies (road tires) with wheel and tire
assemblies that do not have TPMS Sensors, such as
when installing winter wheel and tire assemblies on
your vehicle.
To deactivate the TPMS, first, replace all four wheel and
tire assemblies (road tires) with those not equipped
with TPM Sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for 20 min-
utes above 25 km/h. The TPMS will chime and the Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will flash on and off
for 75 seconds and then remain on solid. In addition,
the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) will
display a “CHECK TPM SYSTEM” text message, and
the graphic will display “- -“ in place of four tire
pressure values. Upon the next ignition switch cycle,
the TPMS will no longer chime or turn on the TirePressure Monitoring Telltale Light, or display the text
message in the EVIC. However, the graphic will still
display “- -.“
To reactivate the TPMS, first, replace all four wheel and
tire assemblies (road tires) with those equipped with
TPM Sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for up to 20 min-
utes above 25 km/h. The TPMS will chime, the Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light will flash on and off
for 75 seconds, the EVIC will display a “CHECK TPM
SYSTEM” text message, and the graphic will display tire
pressure values to show that the TPMS is receiving
sensor data.

®
Rear Park Assist system provides
visual and audible indications of the distance between
the rear fascia and a detected obstacle when backing
up, e.g. during a parking maneuver. Refer to “Park-Sense
®System Usage Precautions” for limitations of
this system and recommendations. ParkSense®will retain the last system state (enabled
or disabled) from the last ignition cycle when the
ignition is changed to the ON/RUN position. ParkSense®can be active only when the shift lever is in
REVERSE. If ParkSense
®is enabled at this shift lever
position, the system will remain active until the vehicle
speed is increased to approximately 18 km/h or above.
The system will become active again if the vehicle
speed is decreased to speeds less than approximately
16 km/h.
ParkSense
®Sensors
The four ParkSense
®
sensors, located in the rear
fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind the vehicle that
is within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors can
detect obstacles from approximately 30 cm up to
200 cm from the rear fascia/bumper in the horizontal
direction, depending on the location, type and orienta-
tion of the obstacle.
ParkSense
®Warning Display
The ParkSense®Warning screen will only be displayed
if Sound and Display is selected from the Uconnect
Touch™ System. Refer to “Uconnect Touch™ Set-
tings” for further information. The ParkSense
®Warning screen is located within the
