Adaptive Cruise Control Buttons
WARNING!
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a conve -
nience system. It is not a substitute for active
driver involvement. It is always the driver’s
responsibility to be attentive of road, traffic,
and weather conditions, vehicle speed,
distance to the vehicle ahead; and, most
importantly, brake operation to ensure safe
operation of the vehicle under all road condi -
tions. Your complete attention is always
required while driving to maintain safe control
of your vehicle. Failure to follow these warn -
ings can result in a collision and death or
serious personal injury.
The ACC system:
Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming
vehicles, and stationary objects (e.g., a
stopped vehicle in a traffic jam or a
disabled vehicle).
Cannot take street, traffic, and weather
conditions into account, and may be
limited upon adverse sight distance condi -
tions.
Does not always fully recognize complex
driving conditions, which can result in
wrong or missing distance warnings.
You should turn the ACC system off:
When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy snow,
sleet, heavy traffic, and complex driving situa -
tions (i.e., in highway construction zones).
When entering a turn lane or highway off
ramp; when driving on roads that are winding,
icy, snow-covered, slippery, or have steep
uphill or downhill slopes.
When towing a trailer up or down steep slopes.
When circumstances do not allow safe driving
at a constant speed.

wheel. The steering wheel image will display
white in the instrument cluster display until
the system is engaged. If ACC was previously
disabled, pushing this button will activate
BOTH ACC and Highway Assist systems.

2. If ACC was active and engaged before pushing the HAS on/off button, ACC will remain engaged
and HAS will become enabled and then
engaged (once all other conditions are met).
3. If ACC was not active before pushing the HAS
on/off button, push the SET (+) button or the
SET (-) button and release when the desired
highway driving speed is shown in the
instrument cluster display.
4. If desired, adjust the ACC distance setting by pushing the Distance Increase or Distance
Decrease buttons.
When all system conditions are met as described
in “System Engagement Conditions” in the next
section, the system will engage and the steering
wheel image in the display will change to green.

Driver's door is opened.
Rear liftgate is opened.
Electronic Stability Control/Anti-lock Braking
System intervention.
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system will allow
a maximum number of shifts between DRIVE and
REVERSE. If the maneuver cannot be completed
within the maximum amount of shifts, the system
will cancel and the instrument cluster display will
instruct the driver to complete the maneuver
manually.
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system will only
operate and search for a parking space when the
following conditions are present:
Gear selector is in DRIVE.
Ignition is in the RUN position.
ParkSense Active Park Assist switch is acti -
vated.
Driver's door is closed.
Rear liftgate is closed.
The outer surface and the underside of the front
and rear fascias/bumpers are clean and clear
of snow, ice, mud, dirt or other obstruction.
Vehicle speed is less than 15 mph (25 km/h).
NOTE:If the vehicle is driven above approximately
15 mph (25 km/h), the instrument cluster display
will instruct the driver to slow down. If the vehicle
is driven above approximately 18 mph (30 km/h),
the system will cancel. The driver must then reac -
tivate the system by pushing the ParkSense Active
Park Assist switch.
When pushed, the LED on the ParkSense Active
Park Assist switch will blink momentarily, and then
the LED will turn off if any of the above conditions
are not present.
PARALLEL/PERPENDICULAR PARKING
S
PACE ASSISTANCE OPERATION
When the ParkSense Active Park Assist system
is enabled, the “Active ParkSense Searching -
Press or to Switch Maneuver” message will
appear in the instrument cluster display. You may
select perpendicular, parallel, or parallel park exit.
The arrow buttons on the left side of the steering
wheel can be used to switch parking maneuvers.
Active ParkSense Searching

NOTE:
When searching for a parking space, use the
turn signal indicator to select which side of the
vehicle you want to perform the parking
maneuver. The ParkSense Active Park Assist
system will automatically search for a parking
space on the passenger's side of the vehicle if
the turn signal is not activated.
The driver needs to make sure that the selected
parking space for the maneuver remains free
and clear of any obstructions (e.g. pedestrians,
bicycles, etc.).
The driver is responsible to ensure that the
selected parking space is suitable for the
maneuver and free/clear of anything that may

144STARTING AND OPERATING
EXITING THE PARKING SPACE
NOTE:The function does not work for exiting a perpen -
dicular parking space, but only exiting parallel
parking spaces.
Activation
To activate this function, shift to DRIVE, push the
ParkSense Active Park Assist switch, and then use
the steering wheel arrow buttons to select the
Parallel Park Exit feature. After the selection, the
system activates and instructs the driver through
the instrument cluster display about the
operations that have to be carried out to perform
the maneuver correctly.
Start Of Maneuver
During the maneuver, the system asks the driver to
shift to REVERSE, and operate the turn signal in
the direction you want to exit. Let go of the steering
wheel and use the brake or accelerator pedals 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 during the
exit maneuver (touching or holding the steering
wheel to prevent its movement), the maneuver will
be interrupted.

Shift To Reverse Then Move Backward
Shift To Drive Then Move Forward
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 circumference calculations
used for parking.
Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, taking
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.
Construction equipment, large trucks, and
other vibrations could affect the performance
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 vehicle must be driven slowly when using
the ParkSense Active Park Assist system in
order to be able to stop in time when an
obstacle is detected. It is recommended that
the driver looks over his/her shoulder when
using the ParkSense Active Park Assist
system.
