34 THINGS TO KNOW BEFORE STARTING YOUR VEHICLE

Programming The Memory Feature
To create a new memory profile, perform the following:
NOTE:Saving a new memory profile will erase an
existing profile from memory.
1. Cycle the vehicles ignition to the ON position.
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 (1) button within five
seconds. The Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) or Driver Information Display (DID), will
display which memory position is being set.
If desired, a second memory profile can be stored into
memory as follows:
1. Cycle the vehicles ignition to the ON position.
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/DID 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.
•To set a memory profile to your RKE transmitter, refer
to “Linking And Unlinking The Remote Keyless Entry
Transmitter To Memory” in this section.

Memory Position Recall
NOTE:
•For vehicles equipped with an automatic transmission,
the vehicle must be in PARK to recall memory posi-
tions. If a recall is attempted when the vehicle is not in
PARK, a message will display in the EVIC/DID.
•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/DID.
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 cycle the
vehicles ignition to the OFF position.
•When you cycle the vehicles ignition to the OFF
position, 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 automatic braking function may only be applied if
the vehicle deceleration is not enough to avoid collid-
ing with a detected obstacle.
•The automatic braking function may not be applied
fast enough for obstacles that move toward the rear of
the vehicle from the left and/or right sides.
•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

NOTE:ParkSense® will reduce the volume of the radio,
if on, when the system is sounding an audio tone.
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.
