132STARTING AND OPERATING
Selec-Terrain consists of the following positions:
ROCK (if equipped) – Off-road calibration is only avail -
able in 4WD LOW. The vehicle is raised (if equipped
with Air Suspension) for improved ground clearance.
Traction-based tuning with improved steerability for
use on high traction off-road surfaces. Use for low
speed obstacles such as large rocks, deep ruts, etc. If
equipped with air suspension, the vehicle level will
change to Off-Road 2 (OR2). If the Selec-Terrain switch
is in ROCK mode, and the transfer case is switched
from 4WD LOW to 4WD HI, the Selec-Terrain system
will return to AUTO.
 SAND (if equipped) – Off-road calibration for use on low
traction surfaces such as sand or wet grass. Driveline
is maximized for traction. Some binding may be felt on
less forgiving surfaces. The electronic brake controls
are set to limit traction control management of throttle
and wheel spin. If equipped with air suspension, the
default ride height for SAND is Normal Ride Height
(NRH).
 MUD (if equipped) – Off-road calibration for use on low
traction surfaces such as mud. Driveline is maximized
for traction. Some binding may be felt on less forgiving
surfaces. The electronic brake controls are set to limit
traction control management of throttle and wheel
spin. If equipped with air suspension, the level will
change to Off-Road 1 (OR1). 
SNOW – Tuning set for additional stability in inclement
weather. Use on and off road on loose traction surfaces
such as snow. When in SNOW mode (depending on
certain operating conditions), the transmission may
use SECOND gear (rather than FIRST gear) during
launches, to minimize wheel slippage. If equipped with
air suspension, the default ride height for SNOW is
Normal Ride Height (NRH).
 AUTO – Fully automatic full-time four-wheel drive oper -
ation can be used on and off road. Balances traction
with seamless steering feel to provide improved
handling and acceleration over two-wheel drive vehi -
cles. If equipped with air suspension, the level will
change to Normal Ride Height (NRH).
 SPORT – This mode alters the transmission's auto -
matic shift schedule for sportier driving. Upshift speeds
are increased to make full use of available engine
power. Steering efforts are modified for sporty driving.
If equipped with air suspension, the level will change to
Aero Height.

QUADRA-LIFT — IF EQUIPPED
DESCRIPTION
The Quadra-Lift Air Suspension system provides full-time
load leveling capability along with the benefit of vehicle
height adjustment by a toggle switch. The vehicle will automatically raise and lower the ride
height to adapt to the appropriate driving conditions. At
higher speeds, the vehicle will lower to an aerodynamic
ride height and when operating in off-road modes (if
equipped), the vehicle will raise the ride height
accordingly. The buttons near the terrain switch in the
center console area can be used to set preferred ride
height to match the appropriate conditions.

134STARTING AND OPERATING
NOTE:Default Ride Height:
 Select Aero Height or Normal Ride Height as the default
for all vehicle speeds and operation. This is the
selected height that the suspension will level for speed
changes (e.g. raising from Entry/Exit Height at speed,
lowering from Off Road Height at speed, etc.).
 Default ride height can be changed by manually
adjusting the Quadra-Lift switch to Normal Ride Height
or Aero Ride Height and stay in the selected height for
2.5 seconds. It will be stored as the default ride height
and the height will be maintained until a new default
ride height is selected.

FUEL SAVER TECHNOLOGY 5.7L AND 6.4L
ONLY — IF EQUIPPED
This feature offers improved fuel economy by shutting off
four of the engine's eight cylinders during light load and
cruise conditions. The system is automatic with no driver
inputs or additional driving skills required.
NOTE:This system may take some time to return to full function -
ality after a battery disconnect.
POWER STEERING
The electric power steering system is designed to provide
increased vehicle response and ease of maneuverability
in tight spaces. The power steering system adapts to
different driving conditions. If the electric power steering
system experiences a fault that prevents it from providing
assist, you will still have the ability to steer the vehicle
manually.
NOTE:Alternate electric power steering efforts can be selected
through the Uconnect System Úpage 197.
If the Electric Power Steering warning icon is
displayed and the “SERVICE POWER
STEERING” or the “POWER STEERING ASSIST
OFF – SERVICE SYSTEM” message is displayed
within the instrument cluster display, this indicates the
vehicle needs to be taken to an authorized dealer for
service

148STARTING AND OPERATING
Speed Limit Exceeded
When the vehicle’s speed exceeds the displayed speed
limit by 3 mph (5 km/h), the speed limit sign on the
instrument cluster display will show a red outline to alert
the driver.ACTIVE DRIVING ASSIST SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
OPERATION
The Active Driving Assist (ADA) system is combined with
the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system, and centers the
vehicle in the driving lane while traveling at speeds up to
90 mph (145 km/h).
For ACC system operating instructions and system
limitations, see
Úpage 139.
NOTE:
The driver should always obey traffic laws and speed
limits. Never drive above applicable speed limit restric -
tions.
 The driver can override ADA at any time by braking,
accelerating, or steering the vehicle.
Just like ACC, ADA will maintain a set speed as long as the
set distance between your vehicle and the vehicle in front
is maintained. ADA will also keep your vehicle centered
between the lane lines, and monitor for other vehicles in
adjacent lanes by utilizing the Blind Spot Monitoring
sensors.
Two types of Active Driving Assist systems are available:
 Base ADA system
 Hands-Free ADA system
Base Active Driving Assist System — If Equipped
The Base ADA system uses sensors within the steering
wheel to measure driver attentiveness, and requires that
the driver have their hands on the steering wheel at all
times. The system will generally aim to keep the vehicle centered
in the lane, but when the driver turns the steering wheel
(e.g. to move farther away from a large vehicle in an
adjacent lane) the system will reduce its control and enter
"co-steering" mode. While in co-steering mode, the system
will provide reduced assistance and allow the driver to
control the path of the vehicle. Once the driver stops
providing input to the steering wheel, the system will
require a few seconds to fully resume lane centering
assistance, especially during curves.
Hands-Free Active Driving Assist System — If Equipped
The Hands-Free ADA system uses sensors within the
steering wheel and a driver monitoring camera located on
top of the steering column to monitor driver attentiveness.
The Hands-Free ADA system allows the driver to remove
their hands from the steering wheel when engaged, but
requires that the driver continue to pay attention to the
road.
The Hands-Free ADA system will also change lanes when
a turn signal is activated if the adjacent lane in the
direction indicated is clear of another vehicle, and lane
markings are detected (noted by a dashed line in the
direction of the available lane change). The system uses
sensors, including Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) sensors,
to determine if a lane change is possible. If the assisted
lane change is in progress, a green arrow will appear. If a
lane change is requested but the direction indicated is not
possible, a yellow arrow will appear. Once conditions are
clear, the arrow will turn green and the assisted lane
change will begin.
CAUTION!

Functionality may be limited or the system may not
work if the sensor is obstructed.
 The system may have limited operation or not work at
all in weather conditions such as heavy rain, hail, and
thick fog. Strong light contrasts can influence the
recognition capability of the sensor.
 The area surrounding the sensor must not be
covered with stickers or any other object.
 Do not tamper or perform any operations in the area
of the windshield glass directly surrounding the
sensor.
 Clean foreign matters such as bird droppings,
insects, snow or ice on the windshield. Use specific
detergents and clean cloths to avoid scratching the
windshield.

STARTING AND OPERATING149
(Continued)
Additionally, Hands-Free ADA will slow the vehicle down
when approaching and going through sharp curves.

Assisted Lane Change (Green Left Arrow)

Extended Auto Resume
If equipped with Hands-Free ADA and the system brings
your vehicle to a stop while following the vehicle ahead,
your vehicle will automatically resume driving without
driver input when the path in front of the vehicle is clear
and the driver is attentive. The path in front of the vehicle
is determined to be clear based on the forward facing
camera, front radars, and front ultrasonic sensors. If the vehicle in front does not start moving after
10 minutes, the Electric Park Brake (EPB) will be applied
and the system will cancel.
NOTE:

The Hands-Free Active Driving Assist system is only
available on approved compatible roadways and
requires an active subscription through the Uconnect
Connected Services package. If the ADA on/off button
is pushed without an active subscription, the instru -
ment cluster display will show the message “Active
Driving Assist Unavailable Update Subscription”. Refer
to the Uconnect Owner’s Manual Supplement for
further information.
 If previously disabled, activating the Hands-Free Active
Driving Assist system will also activate the Forward
Collision Warning and Pedestrian Emergency Braking
systems
Úpage 250.
 If the vehicle is equipped with the Uconnect Connected
Services package, additional data may be collected
through the Connected Services system. This includes
information about the vehicle’s operation, a collision
involving the vehicle, the use of the vehicle and its
features, and in certain situations, the location and
approximate GPS speed of the vehicle. Refer to the
Uconnect Owner’s Manual Supplement for Terms and
Conditions and Privacy Statements. 
The driver monitoring camera may record images of the
driver during certain crash, or near crash-like situa -
tions. To retrieve the images recorded by the camera,
special equipment is required and access to the
vehicle or the camera is needed.
 Vehicle data may be read from the Hands-Free ADA
system with special equipment and access to the
vehicle or the Event Data Recorder (EDR).WARNING!
The driver is always responsible for determining if a
lane change is safe. Failure to follow this warning can
result in a collision and death or serious personal
injury.
WARNING!
The Active Driving Assist (ADA) system is a convenience
system. It is not a substitute for active driver
involvement. It is always the driver’s responsibility to be
attentive of road traffic, weather conditions, vehicle
speed, distance to the vehicle ahead, position in the
lane compared to other vehicles, and 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.
Some states and local laws may require hands to be
kept on the steering wheel at all times. For vehicles
equipped with the Hands-Free ADA system, ONLY
remove your hands from the steering wheel if the
Hands-Free system is engaged, it is safe to do so, and it
is permitted by state and local laws.4

installing different sized wheels or tires) or if there has
been damage due to road hazards
 Driving near highway toll booths
NOTE:If damage to the windshield occurs, have the windshield
replaced by an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING!
Active Driving Assist is an SAE Level 2 Driver Assist
feature, requiring driver attention at all times. To
prevent serious injury or death:
Always remember that the Active Driving Assist
system is a convenience system that cannot accu -
rately detect all situations. Complete attention is
always required while driving, even when using the
Active Driving Assist system.
 Always remain alert and be ready to take control of
the vehicle in the event that the Active Driving Assist
system deactivates, or otherwise lacks full function -
ality as described further before and after this
statement.
 Always keep your hands on the steering wheel when
the Base Active Driving Assist system is activated.
 Always keep your eyes on the road when the
Hands-Free Active Driving Assist system is activated.
 Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles and pay
attention to traffic conditions.
 Do not use a hand held device when either Base or
Hands-Free Active Driving Assist system is engaged.
 Always pay attention to the road when the
Hands-Free Active Driving Assist system is engaged.
The Active Driving Assist system will not steer to
avoid safety hazards, construction zones, objects, or
road impediments. You need to take control to steer
and brake the vehicle in such situations, and when
merging into traffic, exiting the highway, making a
turn for crossing traffic, or stopping for traffic control
devices.
 Do not place any objects on the steering wheel (e.g.
steering wheel covers) which could interfere with the
hand detection sensors.
WARNING!

23_WS_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 153

STARTING AND OPERATING163
(Continued)
The system will then instruct the driver to remove hands
from the steering wheel and feet from the pedals. This
screen will be shown for a minimum of two seconds, or
until the driver releases the brake pedal.
When the parking sequence is initiated by the driver after
the previously described conditions are met, the Uconnect
system will display a Top View along with either a rear
camera view (if the vehicle is placed in REVERSE) or a
forward camera view (if the vehicle is placed in DRIVE).
The Top View will have integrated ParkSense arcs in the
image at the front and rear of the vehicle. The arcs will
change color from yellow to red corresponding the
distance zones to the oncoming object.
The system will then perform the parking maneuver. Once
the maneuver is complete, the vehicle will automatically
shift into PARK.
The system will display a “Complete!” message and
instruct the driver to release the Active Park Assist switch.
Once the Active Park Assist switch is released, a chime will
sound and the LED on the switch will turn off. After
approximately five seconds, the previous Uconnect screen
will display.
NOTE:

It is the driver's responsibility to use the brake and stop
the vehicle. The driver should check their surroundings
and be prepared to stop the vehicle either when
instructed to, or when driver intervention is required.
 When the system instructs the driver to remove their
hands from the steering wheel, the driver should check
their surroundings and begin to back up slowly.
 The system will cancel the maneuver if the vehicle
speed exceeds 28 mph (40 km/h) during active
steering guidance into the parking space. The system
will provide a warning to the driver at 28 mph
(40 km/h) that tells them to slow down. The driver is
then responsible for completing the maneuver if the
system is canceled.
 If the system is canceled during the maneuver for any
reason, the driver must take control of the vehicle.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when performing parallel or
perpendicular parking maneuvers even when using
the ParkSense Active Park Assist system. Always
check carefully behind and in front of your vehicle,
look behind and in front of you, and be sure to check
for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstruc -
tions, and blind spots before backing up and moving
forward. 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 the ParkSense Active Park Assist
system, it is strongly recommended that the ball
mount and hitch ball assembly be disconnected from
the vehicle when the vehicle is not used for towing.
Failure to do so can result in injury or damage to vehi -
cles or obstacles because the hitch ball will be much
closer to the obstacle than the rear fascia/bumper
when the vehicle 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.
CAUTION!
 The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is only a
parking aid and it is unable to recognize every
obstacle, including 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 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.

164STARTING AND OPERATING
Parallel Park Exit
Enable the ParkSense Active Park Assist system by
pressing the ParkSense Active Park Assist switch. To
initiate a parking space exit maneuver, the vehicle must
be stopped, and the driver must press “Exit” on the
Uconnect display.
After the driver chooses a parallel park exit maneuver, the
system will then prompt the driver to choose an exit
method. The exit method options are Forward Left and
Forward Right.

Choose Exit Method

NOTE:If an exit method selection is attempted before the vehicle
is stopped, the driver will be instructed to stop the vehicle
to make a selection.
After the driver chooses a parallel exit side, a message
appears in the Uconnect display with instructions to hold
the brake pedal and hold down the Active Park Assist
switch. Both of these conditions must be met before the
maneuver can begin. When the Active Park Assist switch is held down, the turn
signal for the chosen exit side will turn on automatically.
The system will then instruct the driver to remove hands
from the steering wheel and feet from the pedals. This
screen will be shown for a minimum of two seconds, or
until the driver releases the brake pedal.
When the exit sequence is initiated by the driver after the
previously described conditions are met, the Uconnect
system will display a Top View along with either a rear
camera view (if the vehicle is placed in REVERSE) or a
forward camera view (if the vehicle is placed in DRIVE),
and the exit maneuver will begin.
The Top View will have integrated ParkSense arcs in the
image at the front and rear of the vehicle. The arcs will
change color from yellow to red corresponding the
distance zones to the oncoming object.
The automatic maneuver ends when the vehicle is clear of
the parking space, and the display shows the message of
a completed maneuver. The vehicle will be in DRIVE and
held hydraulically by the brakes until the driver presses
the accelerator pedal. The system gives vehicle control
back to the driver.
Once the driver regains control of the vehicle, a chime will
sound and the LED on the switch will turn off. After
approximately five seconds, the previous Uconnect screen
will display.
Parking Maneuver Paused/Canceled
Certain conditions can pause or cancel a Fully Automated
park or exit maneuver.
The ParkSense Automated Parking system can be paused
due to the driver’s finger being removed from the Active
Park Assist switch and/or an object in the vehicle’s path
during a parking maneuver.
If one or more of these scenarios occur, automatic braking
will bring the vehicle to a stop and hold the vehicle
hydraulically by the brakes.
The driver will be instructed to hold the Active Park Assist
switch to continue the park or exit maneuver. If the driver
does not resume holding the switch down, the maneuver
will cancel.
If the maneuver is paused due to an object in the vehicle’s
