mirror JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE 2017 WK2 / 4.G Owner's Manual

When the vehicle is started, the BSM warning
light will momentarily illuminate in both out-
side rear view mirrors to let the driver know
that the system is operational. The BSM
system sensors operate when the vehicle is in
any forward gear or REVERSE and enters
stand by mode when the vehicle is in PARK.
The BSM warning light, located in the out-
side mirrors, will illuminate if a vehicle
moves into a blind spot zone.The BSM system can also be configured to
sound an audible (chime) alert and mute the
radio to notify you of objects that have en-
tered the detection zones.
Rear Cross Path (RCP)
The Rear Cross Path (RCP) feature is in-
tended to aid the driver when backing out of
parking spaces where the vision of oncoming
vehicles may be blocked. Proceed slowly and
cautiously out of the parking space until the rear end of the vehicle is exposed. The RCP
system will then have a clear view of the cross
traffic and if an oncoming vehicle is de-
tected, will alert the driver. When RCP is on
and the vehicle is in REVERSE, the driver is
alerted using both the visual and audible
alarms, including reducing the radio volume.
Refer to “Blind Spot Monitoring” in “Safety”
in the Owner's Manual at
www.jeep.com/en/owners/manuals/ for more
information.
Modes Of Operation
Three selectable modes of operation are
available in the Uconnect System. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings/Customer Programmable
Features” in “Multimedia” for further infor-
mation.
Blind Spot Alert Lights Only
When operating in Blind Spot Alert mode, the
BSM system will provide a visual alert in the
appropriate side view mirror based on a de-
tected object. However, when the system is
operating in Rear Cross Path (RCP) mode, the
Rear Detection Zones
Blind Spot Warning Light
SAFETY

system will respond with both visual and
audible alerts when a detected object is pres-
ent. Whenever an audible alert is requested,
the radio is muted.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert Lights/
Chime mode, the BSM system will provide a
visual alert in the appropriate side view mirror
based on a detected object. If the turn signal
is then activated, and it corresponds to an
alert present on that side of the vehicle, an
audible chime will also be sounded. When-
ever a turn signal and detected object are
present on the same side at the same time,
both the visual and audible alerts will be
issued. In addition to the audible alert the
radio (if on) will also be muted.
NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is requested by the
BSM system, the radio is also muted.
When the system is in RCP, the system shall
respond with both visual and audible alerts
when a detected object is present. Wheneveran audible alert is requested, the radio is also
muted. Turn/hazard signal status is ignored;
the RCP state always requests the chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off there will
be no visual or audible alerts from either the
BSM or RCP systems.
NOTE:
The BSM system will store the current oper-
ating mode when the vehicle is shut off. Each
time the vehicle is started the previously
stored mode will be recalled and used.
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system
provides the driver with audible and visual
warnings within the instrument cluster dis-
play to warn the driver when it detects a
potential frontal collision. The warnings are
intended to provide the driver with enough
time to react, avoid or mitigate the potential
collision.
NOTE:
FCW monitors the information from the for-
ward looking sensors as well as the Electronic
Brake Controller (EBC), to calculate the prob-
ability of a forward collision. When the sys-
tem determines that a forward collision is
probable, the driver will be provided with
audible and visual warnings.
Turning FCW ON Or OFF
The forward collision button is located in the
Uconnect display in the controls settings.
• To turn the FCW system OFF, press the
forward collision button once to turn the
system OFF.
• To turn the FCW system back ON, press the forward collision button again to turn
the system ON.
NOTE:
• The default status of FCW is “On”, this allows the system to warn you of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front of you.
