If desired, a second memory profile can be stored into
memory as follows:
1. Turn the ignition ON.
2. Adjust all memory profile settings to desired prefer-ences (i.e., seat, side mirror and radio station presets).
3. Press and release the SET button on the memory switch, then press the number (2) button within five
seconds. The EVIC, if equipped, will display which
memory position is being set.
NOTE:
• For vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission,
memory profiles can be set without the vehicle in
PARK, but the vehicle must be in PARK to recall a
memory profile. •
For vehicles equipped with a manual transmission, the
vehicle speed must be at 0 mph (0 km/h) to recall a
memory profile.
• The Recall Memory with Remote Key Unlock feature
can be turned on and off through the EVIC, if
equipped. If the Recall Memory with Remote Key
Unlock is not turned on in (EVIC)/Customer-
Programmable Features then the Linking and Unlink-
ing the Remote Keyless Entry Transmitter to Memory
will not be successful. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC)/Customer-Programmable
Features” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel”
for further information.

•For vehicles equipped with a manual transmission, the
vehicle speed must be at 0 mph (0 km/h) to recall
memory positions. If a recall is attempted with the
vehicle speed above 0 mph (0 km/h), a message will
display in the EVIC, if equipped.
To recall the memory settings for driver one, press
MEMORY button number 1 or the UNLOCK button on
the RKE transmitter linked to memory position 1.
To recall the memory setting for driver two, press
MEMORY button number 2 or the UNLOCK button on
the RKE transmitter linked to memory position 2.
A recall can be cancelled by pressing any of the
MEMORY buttons (S, 1, or 2) during a recall. When a
recall is cancelled, the driver seat will stop moving. A
delay of one second will occur before another recall can
be selected.Easy Entry/Exit Seat
This feature provides automatic driver seat positioning to
enhance driver mobility when entering and exiting the
vehicle.
The distance the driver seat moves depends on where
you have the driver seat positioned when you remove the
Key Fob from the ignition (or change the ignition to OFF,
for vehicles equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go™).
• When you remove the Key Fob from the ignition (or
change the ignition to OFF, for vehicles equipped with
Keyless Enter-N-Go™), the driver seat will move
about 2.4 in (60 mm) rearward if the driver seat
position is greater than or equal to 2.7 in (67.7 mm)
forward of the rear stop. The seat will return to its
previously set position when you place the ignition
into the ACC or RUN position.

•The automatic braking function can be enabled/
disabled from the Customer-Programmable Features
section of the Uconnect® System.
• ParkSense® will retain its last known configuration
state for the automatic braking function through igni-
tion cycles.
The automatic braking function is intended to assist the
driver in avoiding possible collisions with detected ob-
stacles when backing up in REVERSE gear.
If your vehicle is equipped with a Manual Transmission,
the automatic braking function in REVERSE gear is not
available. NOTE:
•
The driver is always responsible for controlling the
vehicle.
• The system is provided to assist the driver and not to
substitute the driver.
• The driver must stay in full control of the vehicle’s
acceleration and braking and is responsible for the
vehicle’s movements.
Refer to ParkSense® System Usage Precautions for limi-
tations 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.

Front Park Assist
When the vehicle is in DRIVE or NON-REVERSE for
manual transmission, the ParkSense® Warning screen
will be displayed when an obstacle is detected.
The system will indicate a detected obstacle by showing
a single arc in one or more regions based on the obstacle’s
distance and location relative to the vehicle.
If an obstacle is detected in the center front region, the
display will show a single arc in the center front region.
As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the display
will show the single arc moving closer to the vehicle.A fast sound tone will be produced when reaching the
2nd flashing arc and will change to a continuous sound
tone when the 1st flashing arc appears.
If an obstacle is detected in the left and/or right front
region, the display will show a single flashing arc in the
left and/or right front region and will produce a fast
sound tone. As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle,
the display will show the single arc moving closer to the
vehicle and the tone will change from fast to continuous.

The ParkSense® Active Park Assist system will only
operate and search for a parking space when the follow-
ing conditions are present:
•Gear position is in DRIVE (automatic transmission) or
in a forward gear (manual transmission).
• Ignition is in the RUN position.
• ParkSense® Active Park Assist switch is activated.
• Driver’s door is closed.
• Rear liftgate is closed.

NOTE:
•
It is the drivers responsibility to use the brake and
accelerator during the semi-automatic parking maneu-
ver.
• When the system instructs the driver to remove their
hands from the steering wheel, the driver should check
their surroundings and begin to back up slowly.
• The ParkSense® Active Park Assist system will allow a
maximum of six shifts between DRIVE (automatic
transmission) or forward gear (manual transmission)
and REVERSE. If the maneuver cannot be completed
within six shifts, the system will cancel and the EVIC
will instruct the driver to complete the maneuver
manually. •
The system will cancel the maneuver if the vehicle
speed exceeds 5 mph (7 km/h) during active steering
guidance into the parking space. The system will
provide a warning to the driver at 3 mph (5 km/h) that
tells them to slow down. The driver is then responsible
for completing the maneuver if the system is canceled.
• If the system is canceled during the maneuver for any
reason, the driver must take control of the vehicle.3

Only shift from DRIVE to PARK or REVERSE when the
accelerator pedal is released and the vehicle is stopped.
Be sure to keep your foot on the brake pedal when
shifting between these gears.
The transmission shift lever has PARK, REVERSE, NEU-
TRAL, DRIVE, and Electronic Range Select (ERS) shift
positions. Manual downshifts can be made using the ERS
shift control (refer toElectronic Range Select (ERS)
Operation in this section for further information). Mov-
ing the shift lever into the ERS (-/+) position (beside the
DRIVE position) displays the current gear in the instru-
ment cluster, and prevents automatic upshifts beyond
this gear. In ERS mode, toggling the shift lever forward (-)
or rearward (+) will change the highest available gear.

Traction Downhill
Shift the transmission into a low gear and the 4WD
System to 4WD LOW range or Select Hill Descent
Control if equipped (refer toElectronic Brake Control
System in this section for further information). Let the
vehicle go slowly down the hill with all four wheels
turning against engine compression drag. This will per-
mit you to control the vehicle speed and direction.
When descending mountains or hills, repeated braking
can cause brake fade with loss of braking control. Avoid
repeated heavy braking by downshifting the transmis-
sion whenever possible.
After Driving Off-Road
Off-road operation puts more stress on your vehicle than
does most on-road driving. After going off-road, it is
always a good idea to check for damage. That way you can get any problems taken care of right away and have
your vehicle ready when you need it.
•
Completely inspect the underbody of your vehicle.
Check tires, body structure, steering, suspension, and
exhaust system for damage.
• Inspect the radiator for mud and debris and clean as
required.
• Check threaded fasteners for looseness, particularly on
the chassis, drivetrain components, steering, and sus-
pension. Retighten them, if required, and torque to the
values specified in the Service Manual.
• Check for accumulations of plants or brush. These
things could be a fire hazard. They might hide damage
to fuel lines, brake hoses, axle pinion seals, and
propeller shafts.
