(Continued)
Resume Speed
To resume a previously set speed, push the RES
button and release. Resume can be used at any
speed above 20 mph (32 km/h).
Deactivation
A soft tap on the brake pedal, pushing the CANC
button, or normal brake pressure while slowing the
vehicle will deactivate the Cruise Control without
erasing the set speed from memory.
Pushing the on/off button or placing the ignition in
the OF

F position erases the set speed from
memory.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) increases the driving
convenience provided by Cruise Control while
traveling on highways and major roadways.
However, it is not a safety system and not designed
to prevent collisions. The Cruise Control function
performs differently if your vehicle is not equipped
with ACC Ú page 95.
ACC will allow you to keep Cruise Control engaged
in li g

ht to moderate traffic conditions without the
constant need to reset your speed. ACC utilizes a
radar sensor and a forward facing camera
designed to detect a vehicle directly ahead of you
to maintain a set speed.
NOTE:
If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead, ACC
will apply limited braking or accelerate (not to
exceed the original set speed) automatically to
maintain a preset following distance, while
matching the speed of the vehicle ahead.
Any chassis/suspension or tire size modifica -
tions to the vehicle will affect the performance
of t
h e

Adaptive Cruise Control and Forward Colli -
sion Warning system.
Fixed Speed Cruise Control (ACC not enabled)
will not detect vehicles directly ahead of you.
Always be aware of the feature selected
Ú page 349.
WARNING!

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience
system. It is not a substitute for active driver
involvement. It is always the driver’s responsi
-
bility to be attentive of road, traffic, and weather
condi t

ions, vehicle speed, distance to the
vehicle ahead and, most importantly, brake
operation to ensure safe operation of the
vehicle under all road conditions. Your
complete attention is always required while
driving to maintain safe control of your vehicle.
Failure to follow these warnings 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.
WARNING!

the ACC and the Fixed Speed Cruise Control off. Pushing the Fixed Speed Cruise Control on/off
button will result in turning on (changing to) Fixed
Speed Cruise Control mode.
ACC or Fixed Speed Cruise Control is set when the
vehic
l

e speed is above 20 mph (32 km/h), the set
s p
ee
d
shall be the current speed of the vehicle.
Neither system cannot be set below 20 mph
(32 km/

h).
NOTE:
Keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal can
cause the vehicle to continue to accelerate
beyond the set speed. If this occurs, the
message “DRIVER OVERRIDE” will display in the
instrument cluster display.
If you continue to accelerate beyond the set
speed while ACC is enabled, the system will not
be controlling the distance between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead. The vehicle speed will
only be determined by the position of the accel
-
erator pedal.
To Cancel
The following conditions cancel the system:
The brake pedal is applied.
The CANC button is pushed.
An Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) event occurs.
The gear selector is removed from the DRIVE
position.
The braking temperature exceeds normal range
(overheated).
The Electronic Stability Control/Traction Control
System (ESC/TCS) activates.
The vehicle parking brake is applied.
The driver switches ESC to Full Off mode.
To Turn Off
The system will turn off and clear the set speed in
memory if:
The Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off button
is pushed
The Fixed Speed Cruise Control on/off button is
pushed
The ignition is placed in the OFF position
4WD Low is engaged
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 ensure that the
system is off when you are not using it.
WARNING!
In Fixed Speed Cruise Control mode, the system
will not react to vehicles ahead. In addition, the
proximity warning does not activate and no
alarm will sound even if you are too close to the
vehicle ahead since neither the presence of the
vehicle ahead nor the vehicle-to-vehicle distance
is detected. Be sure to maintain a safe distance
between your vehicle and the vehicle ahead.
Always be aware which mode is selected.

STARTING AND OPERATING 103
SERVICE ACC/FCW WARNING
If the system turns off, and the instrument cluster
display reads “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality
Frontal Camera Service Required”, “Cruise Control
Service Required”, or “Cruise Control Temporarily
Unavailable", there may be an internal system fault
or a temporary malfunction that limits ACC
functionality. Although the vehicle is still drivable
under normal conditions, ACC will be temporarily
unavailable. If this occurs, try activating ACC again
later, following an ignition cycle. If the problem
persists, see an authorized dealer.
Precautions While Driving With ACC
In certain driving situations, ACC may have
detection issues. In these cases, ACC may brake
late or unexpectedly. The driver needs to stay alert
and may need to intervene. The following are
examples of these types of situations:
TOWING A TRAILER
Towing a trailer is not advised when using ACC.
OFFSET DRIVING
ACC may not detect a vehicle in the same lane that
is offset from your direct line of travel, or a vehicle
merging in from a side lane. There may not be
sufficient distance to the vehicle ahead. The offset
vehicle may move in and out of the line of travel,
which can cause your vehicle to brake or
accelerate unexpectedly.

Offset Driving Condition Example

TURNS AND BENDS
When driving on a curve with ACC engaged, the
system may increase or decrease the vehicle
speed for stability, with no vehicle ahead detected.
Once the vehicle is out of the curve, the system will
resume your original set speed. This is a part of
normal ACC system functionality.
NOTE:
On tight turns ACC performance may be limited.
USING ACC ON HILLS
ACC performance may be limited when driving on
hills. ACC may not detect a vehicle in your lane
depending on the speed, vehicle load, traffic
conditions, and the steepness of the hill.

STARTING AND OPERATING 105
PARKSENSE FRONT/REAR PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM — 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 moving forward (e.g.
during a parking maneuver).
For limitations of this system and
recomm e

ndations, see Ú page 108.
ParkSense will retain the last system state
( enabl

ed or disabled) from the last ignition cycle
when the ignition is changed to the ON/RUN
position.
ParkSense is active when the gear selector is
shifte
d to REVERSE or to a forward gear and an
obstacle is detected, as long as the system is on.
When the gear selector is shifted to NEUTRAL (or
PARK in case of automatic gearbox), the system
becomes inactive. When the vehicle is moving
forward, the system will remain active until the
vehicle speed remains below approximately
11 mph (18 km/h). Reducing the speed
approx i

mately below 9 mph (15 km/h), the system
will c
ome back active. When the vehicle is moving
in REVERSE, the system will remain active as long
as the speed remains below the maximum
operating speed of 7 mph (11 km/h). When the
maximu

m speed limit is exceeded, the system is
disabled and the ParkSense switch LED with illuminate. The system will become active again if
the vehicle speed reduces below approximately
6
mph (9 km/h).
PARKSENSE SENSORS
On vehicles equipped with both Front and Rear
ParkSense, there are six sensors located in the
rear fascia/bumper. Vehicles only equipped with
Rear ParkSense have four sensors located in the
rear fascia/bumper.
The sensors monitor the area behind the vehicle
that i

s within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors
can detect obstacles from approximately
12 inches (30 cm) up to 59 inches (150 cm) from
the r e

ar fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction,
depending on the location, type and orientation of
the obstacle.
NOTE:
For information on ParkSense Active Park Assist,
see Ú p
age 111 .
The six ParkSense sensors, located in the front
f ascia

/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 39 inches (100 cm) from
the fr

ont fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction,
depending 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 Ú page 133.
The ParkSense Warning screen is located within
t he in

strument cluster display Ú page 64. It
provides visual warnings to indicate the distance
b etwee

n the rear fascia/bumper and/or front
fascia/bumper and the detected obstacle.
PARKSENSE DISPLAY
The warning display will turn on indicating the
system status when the vehicle is in REVERSE or
when the vehicle is in DRIVE and an obstacle has
been detected.
The system will indicate a detected obstacle by
showing
a single arc in the left and/or right front or
rear regions based on the object’s distance and
location relative to the vehicle.
If an object is detected in the left and/or right rear
region,
the display will show a single arc in the left
and/or right rear region and the system will
produce a tone. As the vehicle moves closer to the
object, the display will show the single arc moving
closer to the vehicle, and the audible chime will
increase as the object gets closer to the vehicle.

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
f or
wa
rd
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 to prompt the driver to remain within
the lane boundaries. If the driver continues to
unintentionally drift out of the lane, the LaneSense
system provides a visual warning through the
instrument cluster display to prompt the driver to
remain within the lane boundaries.

The driver may manually override the haptic warning
by app l

ying torque to the steering wheel at any time.

When only a single lane marking is detected and
the dr
iver 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 provided.
NOTE:
When operating conditions have been met, the
LaneSe n
se system will monitor if the driver’s
hands are on the steering wheel and provides an
audible warning to the driver when the driver’s
hands are not detected on the steering wheel. The

REAR BACK UP CAMERA
The Rear Back Up Camera allows you to see an
on-screen image of your vehicle's rear
surroundings when the gear selector is put into
REVERSE. The image will be displayed on the
touchscreen display along with a note to “Check
Entire Surroundings” across the top of the screen.
After five seconds, this note will disappear. The
camera is located above the rear license plate.
Parking Camera

When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with
camer a

delay turned off, the rear camera mode is
exited and the navigation or audio screen appears
again.

When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with
camera
delay turned on, the camera image will
continue to be displayed for up to 10 seconds unless
the vehicle speed exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h), the
vehic l

e is shifted into PARK or the ignition is placed
in the OFF position.

When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE, a

STARTING AND OPERATING 129
Automatic Transmission
Select the DRIVE range when towing. The
transmission controls include a drive strategy to
avoid frequent shifting when towing. However, if
frequent shifting does occur while in DRIVE, you
can use the AutoStick shift control to manually
select a lower gear.
NOTE:
Using a lower gear while operating the vehicle
under
heavy loading conditions will improve perfor -
mance and extend transmission life by reducing
e xcess

ive shifting and heat build up. This action
will also provide better engine braking.
AutoStick
When using the AutoStick shift control, select
the highest gear that allows for adequate perfor -
mance and avoids frequent downshifts. For
exampl
e, choose “5” if the desired speed can be
maintained. Choose “4” or “3” if needed to
maintain the desired speed.
To prevent excess heat generation, avoid
continuous driving at high RPM. Reduce vehicle
speed as necessary to avoid extended driving at
high RPM. Return to a higher gear or vehicle
speed when grade and road conditions allow.
Cruise Control — If Equipped
Do not use in hilly terrain or with heavy loads.
When using the Cruise Control, if you experience
speed drops greater than 10 mph (16 km/h),
d i
s e
n g
age until you can get back to cruising
speed.
Use Cruise Control in flat terrain and with light
loads to maximize fuel efficiency.
RECREATIONAL TOWING
