PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
The traction control system helps avoid
drive wheel spin and loss of traction.
If your vehicle begins to slide, the system
applies the brakes to individual wheels
and, when needed, reduces engine power
at the same time. If the wheels spin when
accelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,
the system reduces engine power in order
to increase traction.
USING TRACTION CONTROL
WARNING: Operating your vehicle
with the traction control disabled could
lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.
The system automatically turns on each
time you switch the ignition on.
If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,
switching traction control off may be
beneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.
Note: When you switch traction control off,
stability control remains fully active.
Switching the System Off
When you switch the system off or on, a
message appears in the information
display showing system status.
You can switch the system off by either
using the information display controls or
the switch.

PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNING: To help avoid personal
injury, always use caution when in
reverse (R) and when using the sensing
system. WARNING:
The system may not
detect objects with surfaces that absorb
reflection. Always drive with due care
and attention. Failure to take care may
result in a crash. WARNING: Traffic control systems,
fluorescent lamps, inclement weather,
air brakes, external motors and fans may
affect the correct operation of the
sensing system. This may cause reduced
performance or false alerts. WARNING:
The system may not
detect small or moving objects,
particularly those close to the ground. WARNING:
If damage occurs in the
immediate area surrounding the sensor,
have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible. WARNING:
The parking aid system
can only assist you to detect objects
when your vehicle is moving at parking
speeds. To help avoid personal injury you
must take care when using the parking
aid system. WARNING:
In cold and severe
weather conditions the system may not
function. Rain, snow and spray can all
limit sensor performance. WARNING:
The system may not
function if the sensor is blocked. Note:
If your vehicle has MyKey ™, the
sensing system cannot be switched off
when a MyKey ™ is present.
See Principle
of Operation (page 63).
Note: Do not clean the sensors with sharp
objects.
Note: If your vehicle sustains damage to
the bumper or fascia and you leave it
misaligned or bent, the sensing zone could
be altered causing inaccurate measurement
of obstacles or false alerts.
Note: Add-on devices such as large trailer
hitches, bike or surfboard racks, license plate
brackets, or bumper covers installed around
the bumper or facia can block the normal
detection zone of the system causing false
alerts. Remove the add-on devices to
prevent false alerts.
Note: When you connect a trailer to your
vehicle, the rear parking aid could detect the
trailer and therefore provide an alert. Disable
the rear parking aid when you connect a
trailer to prevent the alert.
The sensing system warns you of obstacles
within a certain range of your vehicle. The
system turns on when you switch the
ignition on.
You can switch the system off through the
information display menu or from the
pop-up message that appears once you
shift the transmission into reverse (R). See
General Information
(page 102). If your
vehicle has a parking aid button, you can
switch the system off by pressing the
button. The system turns on when you
switch the ignition on.

park (P) while the delay mode is on, the
camera image remains in the display until:
•
Your vehicle speed sufficiently
increases.
• You shift your vehicle into park (P) on
vehicles with automatic transmission.
• You enable the hand brake on vehicles
with manual transmission.
180 DEGREE CAMERA (IF EQUIPPED) WARNING: The front camera
system still requires the driver to use it
in conjunction with looking out of your
vehicle. WARNING:
Objects that are close
to either corner of the bumper or under
the bumper, might not be seen on the
screen due to the limited coverage of the
camera system. WARNING:
Use caution when
turning camera features on or off when
the transmission is not in park (P). Make
sure your vehicle is not moving. The front view camera is in the grille. The
camera provides a video image of the area
in front of your vehicle.
Note:
The area displayed on the screen can
vary according to your vehicle's orientation
or road condition.
Note: The front view camera switches off
if your vehicle speed exceeds
6 mph
(10 km/h). Switch the system back on by
using the camera system button once below
the speed threshold.
Note: The front camera system switches
on when you are in mud/ruts, rock crawl or
sand mode.
Using the System
The 180 degree camera system consists
of front and rear cameras. The system:
• Allows you to see what is directly in
front or behind your vehicle.
• Provides cross traffic view in front and
behind your vehicle.
• Provides visibility during parking
maneuvers. The camera system button is on the audio
unit and allows you to enable and disable
the front camera.

Activating Lane Centering
The system only activates when all of the
following occur:
•
You have adaptive cruise control with
stop-and-go on.
• The vehicle is centered in the lane.
• Your hands are on the steering wheel
at all times.
• The system detects both lane
markings.
Note: If it does not detect valid lane
markings, the system stays inactive until
valid markings are available.
You can override the system at any time
by steering your vehicle.
When the system is active and the
direction indicator is switched on, the
system immediately cancels. The system
remains in standby mode as long as the
direction indicator is engaged. The system
automatically re-activates once the vehicle
is centered in a lane and the direction
indicator is switched off.
If you drive off-center within the lane, the
system sets and maintains that preferred
lane position. The system provides
continuous assistance steering torque
input toward the preferred position.
Note: The system can only set preferred
lane positions within the lane.
Note: If the system cancels, the preferred
position erases. On the next activation, the
system provides continuous assistance
steering torque input toward the lane center.
System Alerts and Automatic
Cancellation
You must keep your hands on the steering
wheel at all times. When the system is active and detects no
steering activity for a certain period of time,
the system alerts you to put your hands on
the steering wheel. If you do not react to
the warnings the system cancels and slows
your vehicle down to idle speeds while
maintaining steering control.
The system also alerts you if your vehicle
crosses lane markings without detected
steering activity.
Note:
The system may detect a light grip
or touch on the steering wheel as hands-off
driving.
When the system cancels due to an
external condition, for example, no lane
markings are available and your hands are
on the steering wheel, a tone sounds and
a message appears in the information
display.
When the system cancels due to an
external condition, for example, no lane
markings are available and your hands are
not on the steering wheel, the system
immediately alerts you to take control of
the vehicle. If you ignore this alert, the
system slows the vehicle while maintaining
steering control. If your vehicle starts to slow
down, you must contribute to
the steering control and press
and release the button to regain full
system performance.
Automatic cancellation can also occur if:
• The lane becomes too wide or too
narrow.
• The system cannot detect valid lane
markings.
• Lane markings are crossed.
Note: The system disables until the next
key cycle if your vehicle slows down due to
driver inactivity twice within a key cycle.

WARNING: The system may fail or
operate with reduced function during
cold and severe weather conditions.
Snow, ice, rain, spray and fog can
adversely affect the system. Keep the
front camera and radar free of snow and
ice. Failure to take care may result in the
loss of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death. WARNING: Some situations and
objects prevent hazard detection. For
example low or direct sunlight, inclement
weather, unconventional vehicle types,
and pedestrians. Apply the brakes when
necessary. Failure to follow this
instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death. WARNING:
The system cannot
help prevent all crashes. Do not rely on
this system to replace driver judgment
and the need to maintain a safe distance
and speed.
Using the Pre-Collision Assist
System
The system is active at speeds above
3 mph (5 km/h) and pedestrian detection
is active at speeds up to
50 mph
(80 km/h). If your vehicle is rapidly approaching
another stationary vehicle, a vehicle
traveling in the same direction as yours, or
a pedestrian within your driving path, the
system provides three levels of
functionality:
1. Alert.
2. Brake support. 3. Active braking.
Alert
: When active, a flashing visual
warning appears and an audible warning
tone sounds.
Brake support
: The system helps reduce
the impact speed by preparing the brakes
for rapid braking. Brake support does not
automatically apply the brakes. If you press
the brake pedal, the system could apply
additional braking up to maximum braking
force, even if you lightly press the brake
pedal.
Active braking
: It activates if the system
determines that a collision is about to
occur. The system can help the driver
reduce impact damage or completely
avoid the crash.
Note: Brake support and active braking are
active at speeds up to 80 mph (130 km/h).
If your vehicle has a radar sensor, included
with adaptive cruise control, then brake
support and active braking are active up to
the maximum speed of your vehicle.
Note: If you perceive pre-collision assist
alerts as being too frequent or disturbing,
you can reduce the alert sensitivity, though
we recommend using the highest sensitivity
setting where possible. Setting lower
sensitivity would lead to fewer and later
system warnings.
Note: The system turns off when you
manually disable AdvanceTrac ™.
