WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for the proper use of the
Around View
®Monitor system could
result in serious injury or death.
. The Around View
®Monitor is a
convenience feature and is not a
substitute for proper vehicle opera-
tion because it has areas where
objects cannot be viewed. The four
corners of the vehicle in particular,
are areas where objects do not al-
ways appear in the bird’s-eye, front,
or rear views. Always check your
surroundings to be sure that it is safe
to move before operating the vehicle.
Always operate the vehicle slowly.
Always look out the windows and
check mirrors to be sure that it is safe
to move.
. The driver is always responsible for
safety during parking and other
maneuvers.

WARNING
.The distance guide line and the
vehicle width line should be used as
a reference only when the vehicle is
on a paved, level surface. The dis-
tance viewed on the monitor is for
reference only and may be different
than the actual distance between the
vehicle and displayed objects.
. Use the displayed lines and the bird’s-
eye view as a reference. The lines and
the bird’s-eye view are greatly af-
fected by the number of occupants,
fuel level, vehicle position, road con-
dition and road grade.
. If the tires are replaced with different
sized tires, the predictive course lines
and the bird’s-eye view may be dis-
played incorrectly.
. When driving the vehicle up a hill,
objects viewed in the monitor are
farther than they appear. When driv-
ing the vehicle down a hill, objects
viewed in the monitor are closer than
they appear.
. Objects in the rear view will appear
visually opposite compared to when viewed in the rear view and outside
mirrors.
. Use the mirrors or actually look to
properly judge distances to other
objects.
. The distance between objects viewed
in the rear view differs from actual
distance because a wide-angle lens is
used.
. On a snow-covered or slippery road,
there may be a difference between
the predictive course lines and the
actual course line.
. The vehicle width and predictive
course lines are wider than the actual
width and course.
. The displayed lines on the rear view
will appear slightly off to the right
because the rearview camera is not
installed in the rear center of the
vehicle.

WARNING
Failure to follow the warnings and
instructions for proper use of the Mov-
ing Object Detection system could result
in serious injury or death.
.
The MOD system is not a substitute
for proper vehicle operation and is
not designed to prevent contact with
the objects surrounding the vehicle.
When maneuvering, always use the
outside mirror and rearview mirror
and turn and check the surrounding
to ensure it is safe to maneuver.
. The system is deactivated at speeds
above 6 MPH (10 km/h). It is reacti-
vated at lower speeds.
. The MOD system is not designed to
detect the surrounding stationary
objects.
The Moving Object Detection (MOD) system
can inform the driver of the moving objects
surrounding the vehicle when driving out of
garages, maneuvering into parking lots and
in other such instances.
The MOD system detects moving objects by
using image processing technology on the
image shown on the display.
MOVING OBJECT DETECTION (MOD)
Page 248 of 529

MOD SYSTEM OPERATION
The MOD system will turn on automatically
under the following conditions:
.When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position.
. When the CAMERA button is pushed to
activate the camera view on the display.
. When vehicle speed decreases below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h) and the
camera screen is displayed.
The MOD system operates in the following
conditions when the camera view is dis-
played:
. When the shift lever is in the P (Park) or N
(Neutral) position and the vehicle is
stopped, the MOD system detects mov-
ing objects in the bird’s-eye view. The
MOD system will not operate if the
outside mirrors are moving in or out, in
the stowed position, or if either front
door is opened.
. When the shift lever is in the D (Drive)
position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h), the
MOD system detects moving objects in
the front view or front-wide view.
. When the shift lever is in the R (Reverse)
position and the vehicle speed is below
approximately 5 MPH (8 km/h), the
MOD system detects moving objects in the rear view or rear-wide view.
The MOD system will not operate if the
liftgate is open.
The MOD system does not detect moving
objects in the front-side view. The MOD icon
is not displayed on the screen when in this
view.

down condition; check for improper
tongue load, overload, worn suspension
or other possible causes of either condi-
tion.
. Always secure items in the trailer to
prevent load shift while driving.
. Keep the cargo load as low as possible in
the trailer to keep the trailer center of
gravity low.
. Load the trailer so approximately 60% of
the trailer load is in the front half and
40% is in the back half. Also make sure
the load is balanced side to side.
. Check your hitch, trailer tire pressure,
vehicle tire pressure, trailer light opera-
tion, and trailer wheel lug nuts every time
you attach a trailer to the vehicle.
. Be certain your rearview mirrors conform
to all federal, state or local regulations. If
not, install any mirrors required for
towing before driving the vehicle.
. Determine the overall height of the
vehicle and trailer so the required clear-
ance is known.
Trailer towing tips
In order to gain skill and an understanding of
the vehicle’s behavior, you should practice
turning, stopping and backing up in an area
which is free from traffic. Steering stability,
and braking performance will be somewhat different than under normal driving condi-
tions.
.
Always secure items in the trailer to
prevent load shift while driving.
. Lock the trailer hitch coupler with a pin or
lock to prevent the coupler from inad-
vertently becoming unlatched.
. Avoid abrupt starts, acceleration or
stops.
. Avoid sharp turns or lane changes.
. Always drive your vehicle at a moderate
speed. Some states or provinces have
specific speed limits for vehicles that are
towing trailers. Obey the local speed
limits.
. When backing up, hold the bottom of the
steering wheel with one hand. Move
your hand in the direction in which you
want the trailer to go. Make small
corrections and back up slowly. If possi-
ble, have someone guide you when you
are backing up.
Always block the wheels on both vehicle and
trailer when parking. Parking on a slope is
not recommended; however, if you must do
so:
CAUTION
If you move the shift lever to the P
(Park) position before blocking the
wheels and applying the parking brake,
transmission damage could occur.
1. Apply and hold the brake pedal.
2. Have someone place blocks on the downhill side of the vehicle and trailer
wheels.
3. After the wheel blocks are in place, slowly release the brake pedal until the
blocks absorb the vehicle load.
4. Apply the parking brake.
5. Shift the transmission into P (Park).
6. Four-Wheel Drive (4WD) models:
Make sure that the 4WD shift switch is
engaged in the AUTO, 4HI or 4LO
position and the Automatic Transmission
(AT) park warning light is turned off.
7. Turn off the engine.
To drive away:
1. Apply and hold the brake pedal.
2. Start the engine.
3. Shift the transmission into gear.
