Each time you switch the system on, itselects the last chosen gap setting.
Following a Vehicle
When a vehicle ahead of you enters thesame lane or a slower vehicle is ahead inthe same lane, the vehicle speed adjuststo maintain the gap setting.
Note:When you are following a vehicle andyou switch on a turn signal lamp, adaptivecruise control may provide a small,temporary acceleration to help you pass.
Your vehicle maintains a consistent gapfrom the vehicle ahead until:
•The vehicle in front of you acceleratesto a speed above the set speed.
•The vehicle in front of you moves outof the lane you are in.
•You set a new gap distance.
The system applies the brakes to slowdown your vehicle to maintain a safe gapdistance from the vehicle in front of you.The system only applies limited braking.You can override the system by applyingthe brakes.
Note:The brakes may emit noise whenapplied by the system.
If the system determines that its maximumbraking level is not sufficient, an audiblewarning sounds, a message appears in theinstrument cluster display and an indicatorflashes when the system continues tobrake. Take immediate action.
CANCELING THE SET SPEED
Press the button or tap the brakepedal.
The set speed does not erase.
RESUMING THE SET SPEED
Press the button.
Your vehicle speed returns to thepreviously set speed and gap setting. Theset speed displays continuously in theinformation display when the system isactive.
Note:Only use resume if you are aware ofthe set speed and intend to return to it.
Resuming the Set Speed from aComplete Stop
If your vehicle follows a vehicle to acomplete stop and remains stationary forless than three seconds, your vehicleaccelerates from a stationary position tofollow the vehicle ahead.
If your vehicle follows a vehicleto a complete stop and remainsstationary for more than threeseconds, press and release the button orpress the accelerator pedal to follow thevehicle ahead.

WHAT IS PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST
Pre-Collision Assist with PedestrianDetection
Pre-collision assist detects and warns ofapproaching hazards in the roadway. Ifyour vehicle is rapidly approaching anotherstationary vehicle, a vehicle traveling in thesame direction as yours, or a pedestrianwithin your driving path, the systemprovides multiple levels of assistance tohelp avoid a collision.
HOW DOES PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST WORK
Pre-Collision Assist with AutomaticEmergency Braking
The system warns the driver of potentialhazards by providing three levels ofassistance.
If your vehicle is rapidly approachingpotential hazards, the system provides thefollowing levels of functionality:
1.Alert.
2.Brake Support.
3.Automatic Emergency Braking.
Alert: When active, a flashingvisual warning appears and anaudible warning tone sounds.
Brake Support: The system is designedto help reduce the impact speed bypreparing the brakes for rapid braking. Thesystem does not automatically apply thebrakes. If you press the brake pedal, thesystem could apply additional braking upto maximum braking force, even if youlightly press the brake pedal.
Automatic Emergency Braking: Thismay activate if the system determines thata collision is imminent.
Note:If you perceive the pre-collision assistalerts as being too frequent or disturbing,then you can reduce the alert sensitivity.Setting the low sensitivity would result infewer and later warnings of a potentialforward collision. The manufacturerrecommends using the high sensitivitysetting where possible.
Note:Automatic emergency brakingperformance is not affected by thesensitivity setting.
Each system has various levels ofdetection capabilities. See Pre-CollisionAssist Limitations (page 235).
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST

WARNING: System performancecould be reduced in situations where thevehicle camera has limited detectioncapability. These situations include butare not limited to direct or low sunlight,vehicles at night without tail lights,unconventional vehicle types, andpedestrians and cyclists with complex,partially obscured backgrounds. Failureto take care may result in the loss ofcontrol of your vehicle, personal injury ordeath.
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
LIMITATIONS
Pre-collision assist depends on thedetection ability of its camera and sensors.Any obstructions or damage to these areascan limit detection or prevent the systemfrom functioning. See Locating thePre-Collision Assist Sensors (page 236).
The system is active at 3 mph (5 km/h)and above.
Note:The pre-collision assist systemdisables when you select four-wheel drivelow or manually disable AdvanceTrac™.
Note:Brake support and automaticemergency braking are active at speeds upto 75 mph (120 km/h). If the vehicle has aradar sensor included with adaptive cruisecontrol, then brake support and automaticemergency braking are active up to themaximum speed of the vehicle.
Pedestrian Detection Limitations
Pedestrian detection is active at speedsup to 50 mph (80 km/h).
Pedestrian detection functions optimallywhen detected hazards are clearlyidentifiable. System performance mayreduce in situations where pedestrians arerunning, partly obscured, have a complexbackground, or cannot be distinguishedfrom a group.

EVASIVE STEERING ASSIST (IF
EQUIPPED)
WHAT IS EVASIVE STEERINGASSIST
Evasive Steering Assist
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching a roaduser, evasive steering assist helps you steeraround the road user.
After you turn the steering wheel in anattempt to avoid a crash with the roaduser, the system applies additional steeringtorque to help you steer around the roaduser. After you pass the road user, thesystem applies steering torque when youturn the steering wheel to steer back intothe lane. The system deactivates after youfully pass the road user.
Note: Road users are defined as anotherstationary vehicle in your lane or a vehiclein your lane, traveling in the same as you aretraveling. See Pre-Collision AssistPrecautions (page 234).
EVASIVE STEERING ASSISTLIMITATIONS
Evasive steering assist only activates whenall the following occur:
•Automatic emergency braking andevasive steering assist are on.
•The system detects a road user aheadand starts to apply the brakes.
•You significantly turn the steeringwheel to steer around a road user.
Note:Evasive steering assist does notautomatically steer around a road user. Ifyou do not turn the steering wheel, evasivesteering assist does not activate.
Note:Evasive steering assist does notactivate if the distance to the road userahead is too small and the system cannotavoid a crash.
Note:Evasive steering does not activatewith cyclists or pedestrians.
SWITCHING EVASIVE STEERINGASSIST ON AND OFF
To switch the system on or off, use thetouchscreen:
1.Press Features on the touchscreen.
2.Press Driver Assistance.
3.Press Pre-Collision Assist.
4.Switch Evasive Steering on or off.
Note:If you switch automatic emergencybraking off, evasive steering assist turns off.

WHAT IS THE GROSS
COMBINED WEIGHT RATING
Gross Combined Weight Rating(GCWR) is the maximumallowable weight of the vehicleand the loaded trailer, includingall cargo and passengers, that thevehicle can handle without riskingdamage. (Important: The towingvehicle’s braking system is ratedfor operation at Gross VehicleWeight Rating, not at GrossCombined Weight Rating.)Separate functional brakes shouldbe used for safe control of towedvehicles and for trailers where theGross Combined Weight of thetowing vehicle plus the trailerexceed the Gross Vehicle WeightRating of the towing vehicle. SeeRecommended TowingWeights (page 256).
CALCULATING PAYLOAD
Tire and Loading Label InformationExample:
Payload is the combined weightof cargo and passengers that yourvehicle is carrying. The maximumpayload for your vehicle appearson the Tire and Loading label. Thelabel is either on the B-pillar or theedge of the driver door. Vehiclesexported outside the US andCanada may not have a tire andloading label. Look for “Thecombined weight of occupantsand cargo should never exceedXXX kg or XXX lb” for maximumpayload. The payload listed on theTire and Loading Information label
