Parksense Rear Park Assist — If Equipped
The ParkSense Rear Park Assist system provides visual and audible indications of the
distance between the rear fascia and a detected obstacle when backing up, e.g.
during a parking maneuver. If your vehicle is equipped with this feature, the vehicle
brakes may be automatically applied and released when performing a reverse parking
maneuver if the system detects a possible collision with an obstacle.
The automatic braking function can be enabled/disabled from the Customer-
Programmable Features section of the Uconnect System.
ParkSense can be active only when the gear selector is in REVERSE. If ParkSense is
enabled at this gear selector position, the system will remain active until the vehicle
speed is increased to approximately 7 mph (11 km/h) or above. When in REVERSE
and above the system's operating speed, a warning will appear within the Driver
Information Display (DID) indicating the vehicle speed is too fast. The system will
become active again if the vehicle speed is decreased to speeds less than approxi-
mately 6 mph (9 km/h).
Cleaning The ParkSense Sensors
If “PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE REAR SENSORS" or "PARKSENSE UNAVAIL-
ABLE WIPE FRONT SENSORS” appears in the “Driver Information Display (DID),”
clean the ParkSense sensors with water, car wash soap and a soft cloth. Do not use
rough or hard cloths. Do not scratch or poke the sensors. Otherwise, you could
damage the sensors.
PARKVIEW REAR BACK-UP CAMERA
You can see an on-screen image of the rear of your vehicle whenever the transmission
is shifted into REVERSE. The ParkView Rear Back-Up Camera image will be
displayed on the radio display screen, located on the center stack of the instrument
panel.
If the radio display screen appears foggy, clean the camera lens located on the rear
of the vehicle above the rear license plate.
Refer to “ParkView Rear Back-Up Camera — If Equipped” in “Understanding The
Features Of Your Vehicle” in your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up; even when using the ParkView Rear
Back-Up Camera. Always check carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to
check for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, or blind spots before
backing up. You must continue to pay attention while backing up. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.

Built-In Features
WARNING!
• ALWAYS obey traffic laws and pay attention to the road. Some UconnectAccess services, including 9-1-1 and Assist, will NOT work without an operable
1X (voice/data) or 3G (data) network connection.
• ALWAYS drive safely with your hands on the steering wheel. You have full
responsibility and assume all risks related to the use of the Uconnect features
and applications in this vehicle. Only use Uconnect when it is safe to do so.
Failure to do so may result in an accident involving serious injury or death.
• Ignoring the rearview mirror light could mean you may not have 9-1-1 Call
service if needed. If the rearview mirror light is illuminated, have an authorized
dealer service the 9-1-1 Call system immediately.
• The Occupant Restraint Controller (ORC) turns on the Air Bag Warning Light on
the instrument panel if a malfunction is detected in any part of the airbag
system. If the Air Bag Warning Light is illuminated, the air bag system may not
be working properly and the 9-1-1 system may not send a signal to a 9-1-1
operator if an air bag is deployed. If the Air Bag Warning Light is illuminated,
have an authorized dealer service your vehicle immediately.
• If anyone in the vehicle could be in danger (e.g., fire or smoke is visible,
dangerous road conditions or location), do not wait for voice contact from a
9-1-1 operator. All occupants should exit the vehicle immediately and move to
a safe location.
• The 9-1-1 Call system is embedded into the vehicle’s electrical system. Do not
add aftermarket electrical equipment to the vehicle’s electrical system. This
may prevent your vehicle from sending a signal to initiate an emergency call. To
avoid interference that can cause the 9-1-1 Call system to fail, never add
aftermarket equipment (e.g., two-way mobile radio, CB radio, data recorder,
etc.) to your vehicle’s electrical system or modify the antennas on your vehicle.
• IF YOUR VEHICLE LOSES BATTERY POWER FOR ANY REASON (INCLUDING
DURING OR AFTER AN ACCIDENT), the Uconnect features, apps and ser-
vices, among others, will not operate.

To Avoid Serious Injury or Death DO NOT:
• insert any objects into the receptacles
• touch with wet hands
Close the lid when not in use. If this outlet is mishandled, it may cause an electric
shock and failure.
POWER OUTLETS
There are three 12 Volt electrical power outlets on this vehicle.
The front power outlet is located inside the center storage bin of the instrument
panel. Push inward on the storage lid to open the compartment and gain access to
this power outlet.
A second front power outlet is located
inside the center console.
The rear power outlet is located in the

how the outlet is powered. Power outlets
labeled with a “key” are powered when
the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN or
ACC position, while the outlets labeled
with a “battery” are connected directly to
the battery and powered at all times.
NOTE:
• Do not exceed the maximum power of160 Watts (13 Amps) at 12 Volts. If
the 160 Watt (13 Amp) power rating is
exceeded, the fuse protecting the sys-
tem will need to be replaced.
• Power outlets are designed for acces- sory plugs only. Do not insert any other
object in the power outlet as this will
damage the outlet and blow the fuse.
Improper use of the power outlet can
cause damage not covered by your new

FUEL ECONOMY (ECO) MODE
The Fuel Economy (ECO) mode can improve the vehicle's overall fuel economy during
normal driving conditions. Press the “ECO” switch in the center stack of the
instrument panel to activate or disable ECO mode. An amber light indicates when
ECO mode is disengaged.
When the Fuel Economy (ECO) Mode is
engaged, the vehicle control systems will
change the following:
• The transmission will upshift soonerand downshift later.
• The transmission will launch (from a stop) in second gear.
• The torque converter clutch may en- gage at lower engine speeds and re-
main on longer.
• The engine idle speed will be lower.
• The overall driving performance will be more conservative.
• Some ECO mode functions may be temporarily inhibited based on temperature and other factors.
NOTE:
ECO mode is only available in AUTO mode.
Active Noise Cancellation
Your vehicle is equipped with an Active Noise Cancellation System, this system is
designed to address the change in exhaust noise whenever the vehicle is operating in
Fuel Economy Mode (ECO) or 4 cylinder mode.
This system relies on four microphones embedded in the headliner to detect the
exhaust drone and prompt an onboard frequency generator to create counteracting
sound waves through the audio system's speakers and sub-woofer. This helps keep
the vehicle quiet at highway speeds.

Exhaust Service Required — See Dealer Now
This message indicates regeneration has been disabled due to a system malfunction.
The Powertrain control Module (PCM) will register a fault code and the instrument
panel will display the Malfunction Indicator Light (MIL).
CAUTION!
See your authorized dealer, as damage to the exhaust system could occur soon
with continued operation.
Exhaust Filter Full — Power Reduced See Dealer
The PCM derates the engine in order to limit the likelihood of permanent damage to
the after-treatment system. If this condition is not corrected and a dealer service is
not performed, extensive exhaust after-treatment damage can occur. Have your
vehicle serviced by your local authorized dealer.
NOTE:
Failing to follow the oil change indicator, changing your oil and resetting the oil
change indicator by 0 miles remaining will prevent the diesel exhaust filter from
performing it's cleaning routine. This will shortly result in a Malfunction Indicator
Light (MIL) and reduced engine power. Only an authorized dealer will be able to
correct this condition.
CAUTION!
See your authorized dealer, as damage to the exhaust system could occur with the
exhaust filter full.
DIESEL EXHAUST FLUID
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF) sometimes known simply by the name of its active
component, UREA – is a key component of selective catalytic reduction (SCR)
systems, which help diesel vehicles meet stringent emission regulations. DEF is a
liquid reducing agent that reacts with engine exhaust in the presence of a catalyst to
convert smog-forming nitrogen oxides (NOx) into harmless nitrogen and water vapor.
Your vehicle is equipped with a Selective Catalytic Reduction system in order to meet
the very stringent diesel emissions standards required by the Environmental Protec-
tion Agency. Selective Catalytic Reduction (SCR) is the first and only technology in
decades to be as good for the environment as it is good for business and vehicle
performance.
