Active guide lines only show with fixedguide lines. To use active guide lines, turnthe steering wheel to point the guide linestoward an intended path. If the steeringwheel position changes while reversing,your vehicle might deviate from theintended path.
The fixed and active guide lines fade in andout depending on the steering wheelposition. The active guide lines do notdisplay when the steering wheel positionis straight.
Use caution while reversing. Objects in thered zone are closest to your vehicle andobjects in the green zone are farther away.Objects get closer to your vehicle as theymove from the green zone to the yellow orred zones. Use the side view mirrors andrear view mirror to get better coverage onboth sides and rear of your vehicle.

WHAT IS CRUISE CONTROL
Cruise control lets you maintain a setspeed without keeping your foot on theaccelerator pedal.
Requirements
Use cruise control when the vehicle speedis greater than 15 mph in imperial units and20 km/h in metric units.
SWITCHING CRUISE CONTROL
ON AND OFF
WARNING: Do not use cruisecontrol on winding roads, in heavy trafficor when the road surface is slippery. Thiscould result in loss of vehicle control,serious injury or death.
The cruise controls are on the steeringwheel.
Switching Cruise Control On
Press the button to activate thesystem. When the systemactivates, the set speed is equalto the current vehicle speed or 15 mph (20km/h), whichever is greater. If the speed istoo low, or other conditions are not correctfor cruise control activation, the systementers standby mode.
Switching Cruise Control Off
Press the button when thesystem is active or switch theignition off.
Note:When you switch cruise control off,the set speed clears.
SETTING THE CRUISE
CONTROL SPEED
WARNING: When you are goingdownhill, your vehicle speed couldincrease above the set speed. Thesystem does not apply the brakes.
Drive to the speed you prefer.
Press either button to set thecurrent speed.
Take your foot off the accelerator pedal.
Note:The indicator changes color in theinstrument cluster display.
Changing the Set Speed
Press and release the button toincrease the set speed in smallincrements.
Press and hold the button to accelerate.Release the button when you reach yourpreferred speed.
Press and release the button todecrease the set speed in smallincrements.
Press and hold the button to decelerate.Release the button when you reach yourpreferred speed.
Note: If you accelerate by pressing theaccelerator pedal, the set speed does notchange. When you release the acceleratorpedal, your vehicle returns to the speed thatyou previously set.

WHAT IS G.O.A.T. MODE
CONTROL
Your vehicle has several goes overany-type of terrain (G.O.A.T.) modes thatyou can select for different drivingconditions. Depending on the mode thatyou select, the system adjusts variousvehicle settings.
HOW DOES G.O.A.T. MODE
CONTROL WORK
Each selectable mode changes variouselectronic and mechanical settings withinyour vehicle to tailor its performance anddriving characteristics to on-road oroff-road driving conditions. The systemmay alter steering feel and effort, tractioncontrol, stability control, chassis controls,powertrain response, transmission shiftpoints, four-wheel driveline setting,exhaust noise level and suspensiondampening to predetermined settings,depending upon the mode that you select.
The system reverts to the normal modeeach time you start your vehicle. At startupthe system also displays a prompt on theinstrument cluster display that gives youthe option to return to the previouslyselected drive mode during the last ignitioncycle. If you select yes, the system returnsto the last selected drive mode and thedefault driveline settings associated withthat mode. If you select no or do not makea selection within a short time, the systemremains in normal mode and the drivelinesettings remain the same as selected inthe prior ignition cycle.
Note:Your vehicle has diagnostic checksthat continuously monitor all systems forproper operation. If a mode is unavailabledue to a system fault, your vehicle defaultsto normal mode and the driveline remainsin the four-wheel drive setting that you lastselected prior to the system fault.
SELECTING A G.O.A.T. MODE -
EXCLUDING: RAPTOR

Note:To optimize off-road drivingperformance, the system disables the brakeover accelerator feature when in off-roadmodes, including mud/ruts, sand, baja androck crawl modes. A message displays inthe instrument cluster when you select anoff-road mode. See G.O.A.T. Mode Control– Information Messages (page 269). Brakeover accelerator enables when an off-roadmode is exited or during the next key cycle.Return to on-road modes, normal, eco, sportor slippery, when driving on regular roads.See Brake Over Accelerator (page 209).
