ADAPTIVE CRUISE
CONTROL (ACC) —
IF EQUIPPEDACC will allow you to keep cruise control
engaged in light to moderate traffic condi-
tions without the constant need to reset your
cruise control. ACC utilizes a radar sensor
and a forward facing camera designed to
detect a vehicle directly ahead of you.
NOTE:
• If the sensor does not detect a vehicle
ahead of you, ACC will maintain a fixed set
speed.
• If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead,
ACC will apply limited braking or accelera-
tion (not to exceed the original set speed)
automatically to maintain a preset follow-
ing distance, while matching the speed of
the vehicle ahead.
To Activate/Deactivate
Push and release the Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC) on/off button. The ACC menu in the
instrument cluster display will read “ACC
Ready.”To turn the system off, push and release the
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off button
again. At this time, the system will turn off
and the instrument cluster display will read
“Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Off.”
WARNING!
Leaving the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
system on when not in use is dangerous.
You could accidentally set the system or
cause it to go faster than you want. You
could lose control and have a collision.
Always leave the system off when you are
not using it.
To Set A Desired ACC Speed
When the vehicle reaches the speed desired,
push the SET(+)button or the SET(-)button
and release. The instrument cluster display
will show the set speed.
If the system is set when the vehicle speed is
below 19 mph (30 km/h), the set speed shall
be defaulted to 19 mph (30 km/h). If the
system is set when the vehicle speed is above
19 mph (30 km/h), the set speed shall be the
current speed of the vehicle.

PARKSENSE REAR PARK
ASSIST — IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Rear Park Assist system pro-
vides visual and audible indications of the
distance between the rear fascia and a de-
tected obstacle when backing up, e.g. during
a parking maneuver. Refer to “ParkSense
System Usage Precautions” for limitations 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.
ParkSense can be active only when the gear
selector is in REVERSE. The system will
remain active until the vehicle speed is in-
creased to approximately 7 mph (11 km/h) or
above. While in REVERSE and above the
system's operating speed, a warning will ap-
pear in the instrument cluster display indi-
cating the vehicle speed is too fast. The
system will become active again if the vehicle
speed is decreased to speeds less than ap-
proximately 6 mph (9 km/h).
ParkSense Sensors
The four ParkSense sensors, located in the
rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind
the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of
view. The sensors can detect obstacles from
approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to
79 inches (200 cm) from the rear fascia/
bumper in the horizontal direction, depend-
ing on the location, type and orientation of
the obstacle.
ParkSense Warning Display
The ParkSense Warning screen will only be
displayed if “Sound and Display” is selected
from the Customer - Programmable Features
section of the Uconnect System. Refer to
"Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” in the
Owner’s Manual for further information.
The ParkSense Warning screen is located
within the instrument cluster display. It pro-
vides visual warnings to indicate the distance
between the rear fascia/bumper and the de-
tected obstacle. Refer to “Instrument Cluster
Display” in “Getting To Know Your Instru-
ment Panel” in the Owner’s Manual for fur-
ther information.
Enabling And Disabling ParkSense
ParkSense can be enabled and
disabled with the ParkSense
switch, located on the switch
panel below the Uconnect display.
When the ParkSense switch is pushed to
disable the system, the instrument cluster
display will show the “PARKSENSE OFF”
message for approximately five seconds. Re-
fer to “Instrument Cluster Display” in “Get-
ting To Know Your Instrument Panel” in your
Owner’s Manual for further details. When the
gear selector is moved to REVERSE and the
system is disabled, the instrument cluster
display will show the “PARKSENSE OFF”
message for as long as the vehicle is in
REVERSE.
The ParkSense switch LED will be on when
ParkSense is disabled or requires service.
The ParkSense switch LED will be off when
the system is enabled. If the ParkSense
switch is pushed, and requires service, the
ParkSense switch LED will blink momen-
tarily, and then the LED will be on.
STARTING AND OPERATING
168

ParkSense System Usage Precautions
• Ensure that the rear bumper is free of snow,
ice, mud, dirt and debris to keep the
ParkSense system operating properly.
• Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vi-
brations could affect the performance of
ParkSense.
• When you turn ParkSense OFF, the instru-
ment cluster display will read
“PARKSENSE OFF.” Furthermore, once
you turn ParkSense OFF, it remains off until
you turn it on again, even if you cycle the
ignition.
• ParkSense, when on, will reduce the vol-
ume of the radio when it is sounding a tone.
• Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, tak-
ing care not to scratch or damage them. The
sensors must not be covered with ice, snow,
slush, mud, dirt or debris. Failure to do so
can result in the system not working prop-
erly. The ParkSense system might not de-
tect an obstacle behind the fascia/bumper,
or it could provide a false indication that an
obstacle is behind the fascia/bumper.• Use the ParkSense switch to turn the
ParkSense system OFF if objects such as
bicycle carriers, etc. are attached to the
rear fascia/bumper. Failure to do so can
result in the system misinterpreting a close
object as a sensor problem, causing the
“PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE
REQUIRED” message to be displayed in
the instrument cluster display.
NOTE:
If any objects are attached to the bumper
within a 6.5ft (2 m) field of view, they will
interfere and cause false alerts and possibly
blockage.
• The operation of the rear sensors is auto-
matically deactivated when the trailer's
electric plug is inserted in the vehicle's tow
hook socket. The rear sensors are automati-
cally reactivated when the trailer's cable
plug is removed.
WARNING!
• Drivers must be careful when backing up
even when using ParkSense. Always
check carefully behind your vehicle, look
WARNING!
behind you, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, ob-
structions, and blind spots before back-
ing up. You are responsible for safety
and must continue to pay attention to
your surroundings. Failure to do so can
result in serious injury or death.
• Before using ParkSense, it is strongly
recommended that the ball mount and
hitch ball assembly is disconnected
from the vehicle when the vehicle is not
used for towing. Failure to do so can
result in injury or damage to vehicles or
obstacles because the hitch ball will be
much closer to the obstacle than the rear
fascia when the loudspeaker sounds the
continuous tone. Also, the sensors could
detect the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly, depending on its size and
shape, giving a false indication that an
obstacle is behind the vehicle.
169

CAUTION!
• ParkSense is only a parking aid and it is
unable to recognize every obstacle, in-
cluding small obstacles. Parking curbs
might be temporarily detected or not
detected at all. Obstacles located above
or below the sensors will not be detected
when they are in close proximity.
• The vehicle must be driven slowly when
using ParkSense in order to be able to
stop in time when an obstacle is de-
tected. It is recommended that the
driver looks over his/her shoulder when
using ParkSense.
PARKSENSE FRONT AND
REAR PARK ASSIST —
IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Park Assist system provides
visual and audible indications of the distance
between the rear and/or front fascia and a
detected obstacle when backing up or mov-
ing forward, e.g. during a parking maneuver.Refer to “ParkSense System Usage Precau-
tions” in “Starting And Operating” in your
Owner’s Manual for limitations 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.
ParkSense is active in all gear selector posi-
tions (including PARK), as long as the system
is on. The system will remain active until the
vehicle speed is increased to approximately
7 mph (11 km/h) or above. While in RE-
VERSE and above the system's operating
speed, a warning will appear in the instru-
ment cluster display indicating the vehicle
speed is too fast. The system will become
active again if the vehicle speed is decreased
to speeds less than approximately 6 mph
(9 km/h).
ParkSense Sensors
The six ParkSense sensors, located in the
rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind
the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of
view. The sensors can detect obstacles from
approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to
79 inches (200 cm) from the rear fascia/
bumper in the horizontal direction, depend-
ing on the location, type and orientation of
the obstacle.
NOTE:
For further information on Active Park Assist,
refer to the “ParkSense Active Park Assist
System” section.
The six ParkSense sensors, located in the
front fascia/bumper, monitor the area in front
of the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field
of view. The sensors can detect obstacles
from approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to
47 inches (120 cm) from the front fascia/
bumper in the horizontal direction, depend-
ing on the location, type and orientation of
the obstacle.

switch is pushed, and requires service, the
ParkSense switch LED will blink momen-
tarily, and then the LED will be on.
Side Distance Warning System
The Side Distance Warning system has the
function of detecting the presence of side ob-
stacles near the vehicle using the parking sen-
sors located in the front and rear bumpers.
Side Distance Warning Display
The Side Distance Warning screen will only
be displayed if “Sound and Display” is se-
lected from the Customer - Programmable
Features section of the Uconnect System.
Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multime-
dia” in the Owner’s Manual for further infor-
mation.
The system warns the driver with an acoustic
signal and where provided, with visual indi-
cations on the instrument panel display.
NOTE:
Parksense will reduce the volume of the radio
if on when the system is sounding an audible
tone.
Activation — Deactivation
The system can operate only after driving a
short distance and if the vehicle speed is
between 0 and 7 mph (0 and 11 km/h).The system can be activated/deactivated via
the "Settings" menu of the Uconnect system.
If the ParkSense System is deactivated via
the ParkSense Hard switch then the side
distance warning system will automatically
be deactivated.
Message on the display for Side Distance
Warning feature:
“Wipe Sensors” — This message is displayed
in the case of a failure of the Side Distance
Warning system sensors. Free the bumpers of
any obstacles, ensure that the front and rear
bumper are free of snow, ice, mud, dirt and
debris to keep the ParkSense system operat-
ing properly.
“SDW Not Available” — This message is
displayed if the Side Distance Warning sys-
tem is not available. The failed operation of
the system might be due to the insufficient
voltage from the battery or other failures on
the electrical system. Contact an authorized
dealer as soon as possible to have the elec-
trical system checked.
171

Operation With A Trailer
The system is automatically deactivated
when the trailer's electric plug is inserted in
the vehicle's tow hook socket. The rear sen-
sors are automatically reactivated when the
trailer's cable plug is removed.
ParkSense Usage Precautions
Some conditions may influence the perfor-
mance of the Side Distance Warning System:
NOTE:
• Ensure that the front and rear bumper are
free of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris to
keep the ParkSense system operating prop-
erly.
• Construction equipment, large trucks, and
other vibrations could affect the perfor-
mance of ParkSense.
• When you turn ParkSense off, the message
to appear in the instrument cluster display
will read “PARKSENSE OFF.” Furthermore,
once you turn ParkSense off, it remains off
until you turn it on again, even if you cycle
the ignition key.• ParkSense, when on, will reduce the vol-
ume of the radio when it is sounding a tone.
• Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, tak-
ing care not to scratch or damage them.
The sensors must not be covered with ice,
snow, slush, mud, dirt or debris. Failure to
do so can result in the system not working
properly. The ParkSense system might not
detect an obstacle behind or in front of the
fascia/bumper, or it could provide a false
indication that an obstacle is behind or in
front of the fascia/bumper.
• The presence of a tow hook without a trailer
may interfere with the correct operation of
the parking sensors. Before using the
ParkSense system, it is recommended to
remove the removable tow hook ball assem-
bly and any attachments from the vehicle
when it is not used for towing operations. If
you wish to leave the tow hook fitted with-
out towing a trailer, it is advisable to con-
tact your authorized dealer for the
ParkSense system update operations be-
cause the tow hook could be detected as an
obstacle by the central sensors.
WARNING!
• Drivers must be careful when backing up
even when using ParkSense. Always
check carefully behind your vehicle,
look behind you, and be sure to check
for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles,
obstructions, and blind spots before
backing up. You are responsible for
safety and must continue to pay atten-
tion to your surroundings. Failure to do
so can result in serious injury or death.
• Before using ParkSense, it is strongly
recommended that the ball mount and
hitch ball assembly is disconnected
from the vehicle when the vehicle is not
used for towing. Failure to do so can
result in injury or damage to vehicles or
obstacles because the hitch ball will be
much closer to the obstacle than the
rear fascia when the loudspeaker sounds
the continuous tone. Also, the sensors
could detect the ball mount and hitch
ball assembly, depending on its size and
shape, giving a false indication that an
obstacle is behind the vehicle.

PARKSENSE ACTIVE
PARK ASSIST SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is
intended to assist the driver during Parallel,
Perpendicular, and Parallel Park Exit maneu-
vers by identifying a proper parking space,
providing audible/visual instructions, and
controlling the steering wheel.The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is
defined as “semi-automatic” since the driver
maintains control of the accelerator, gear
selector and brakes. Depending on the driv-
er's parking maneuver selection, the
ParkSense Active Park Assist system is ca-
pable of maneuvering a vehicle into a parallel
or a perpendicular parking space on either
side (i.e., driver side or passenger side), as
well as exiting a parallel parking space.
NOTE:
• The driver is always responsible for control-
ling the vehicle, responsible for any sur-
rounding objects, and must intervene as
required.
• The system is provided to assist the driver
and not to substitute the driver.
• During a semi-automatic maneuver, if the
driver touches the steering wheel after be-
ing instructed to remove their hands from
the steering wheel, the system will cancel,
and the driver will be required to manually
complete the parking maneuver.• The system may not work in all conditions
(e.g. environmental conditions such as
heavy rain, snow, etc., or if searching for a
parking space that has surfaces that will
absorb the ultrasonic sensor waves).
• New vehicles from the dealer must have at
least 30 miles (48 km) accumulated before
the ParkSense Active Park Assist system is
fully calibrated and performs accurately.
This is due to the system’s dynamic vehicle
calibration to improve the performance of
the feature. The system will also continu-
ously perform the dynamic vehicle calibra-
tion to account for differences such as over
or under inflated tires and new tires.
Enabling And Disabling The ParkSense
Active Park Assist System
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system can
be enabled and disabled with the ParkSense
Active Park Assist switch, located on the
switch panel below the Uconnect display.
To enable the ParkSense Active
Park Assist system, push the
ParkSense Active Park Assist
switch once (LED turns on).
173

Activation
To activate this function, push the Active
ParkSense hard switch and then use the
steering wheel arrow buttons to select the
Parallel Park Exit feature. After the selection,
the system activates and warns the driver on
the instrument panel display about the opera-
tions that have to be carried out to perform
the maneuver correctly.
Selection Of The Maneuver Side
Use the right and left arrow buttons on the
steering wheel to select between parallel or
perpendicular parking mode. Then use the
direction indicators (turn signals) to choose
the direction that you want to perform the
maneuver.
During the maneuver, the system asks to shift
to REVERSE, select the direction indicator in
the direction you want to exit. Let go of the
steering wheel and press the dedicated ped-
als, while the system handles the steering
automatically for exiting the parking space. If
the driver continues to carry out a voluntary or
involuntary action on the steering wheel dur-ing the exit maneuver (touching or holding
the steering wheel to prevent its movement),
the maneuver will be interrupted.
End Of Maneuver
The semi-automatic maneuver ends when the
display shows the message of a completed
maneuver. At the end of the maneuver, the
system gives back the vehicle control to the
driver.
Important Information
• If the sensors undergo impact which alters
their position, the system operation could
be greatly affected.
• The sensors reach top performance after
the vehicle has gone about 30 miles
(50 km) due to the dynamic tire circumfer-
ence calculations used for parking.
• Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, tak-
ing care not to scratch or damage them. The
sensors must not be covered with ice, snow,
slush, mud, dirt or debris. Failure to do so
can result in the system not working prop-
erly. The ParkSense system might not de-
tect an obstacle behind or in front of thefascia/bumper, or it could provide a false
indication that an obstacle is behind or in
front of the fascia/bumper.
• Construction equipment, large trucks, and
other vibrations could affect the perfor-
mance of ParkSense.
• Sensors may detect a nonexistent obstacle
(echo noise) due to mechanical noises, for
example while washing the vehicle or in the
case of rain, strong wind, and hail.
• The sensors may not detect objects of a
particular shape or made from particular
materials (very thin poles, trailer beams,
panels, nets, bushes, anti-parking posts,
pavements, rubbish bins, motor vehicles,
etc.). Always take great care to check that
the vehicle and its path are actually com-
patible with the parking place identified by
the system.
• The use of wheels and tires that are differ-
ent size to the original equipment could
affect the operation of the system.
• The operation of the rear sensors is auto-
matically deactivated when the trailer's
electric plug is inserted in the vehicle's tow
hook socket, while the front sensors stay
175

active and can provide acoustic and visual
warnings. The rear sensors are automati-
cally reactivated when the trailer's cable
plug is removed.
• In "Search in progress" mode, the system
could incorrectly identify a parking place to
carry out the maneuver (e.g. by a junction,
driveways, roads crossing the direction of
travel, etc.).
• In the case of parking maneuvers on roads
on a slope, the performance of the system
could be inferior and it may deactivate.
• If a parking maneuver is being carried out
between two parked vehicles alongside the
pavement, the system may cause the ve-
hicle to mount the pavement.
• Some maneuvers at very tight bends might
be impossible to be carried out.
• Take great care to ensure that conditions do
not change during the parking maneuver
(e.g. if there are persons and/or animals in
the parking place, moving vehicles, etc.)
and intervene immediately if necessary.• During parking maneuvers, pay attention to
vehicles approaching from the opposite di-
rection. Always abide by the law and road
regulations.
NOTE:
• Correct system operation is not guaranteed
if snow chains or the space-saver wheel are
fitted.
• The function only informs the driver about
the last appropriate parking place (parallel
or perpendicular) detected by the parking
sensors.
• Some messages displayed are accompa-
nied by acoustic warnings.
LANESENSE — IF EQUIPPED
LaneSense Operation
The LaneSense system is operational at
speeds above 37 mph (60 km/h) and below
112 mph (180 km/h). The LaneSense system
uses a forward looking camera to detect lane
markings and measure vehicle position
within the lane boundaries.When both lane markings are detected and
the driver unintentionally drifts out of the
lane (no turn signal applied), the LaneSense
system provides a haptic warning in the form
of torque applied to the steering wheel, as
well as a visual warning in the instrument
cluster display, to prompt the driver to remain
within the lane boundaries.
The driver may manually override the haptic
warning by applying torque into the steering
wheel at any time.
When only a single lane marking is detected
and the driver unintentionally drifts across
the lane marking (no turn signal applied), the
LaneSense system provides a visual warning
through the instrument cluster display to
prompt the driver to remain within the lane.
When only a single lane marking is detected,
a haptic (torque) warning will not be pro-
vided.
