warning.
 Never attempt to swerve around animals if doing so
would endanger you or others.
 Do not stare at the image while driving. You could
crash and you or others could be injured.
The Night Vision system only provides alerts to
objects of interest and cannot serve as a substitute
for the driver’s personal judgment. The warnings are
meant to direct your attention to the detected
objects, but the Night Vision system does not auto -
matically brake the vehicle and may not provide a
warning with enough time to help avoid a crash.
 Warnings are only provided if a pedestrian or large
animal is detected by the system.
 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 opera -
tion of the vehicle under all road conditions. Your
complete attention is always required while driving to
maintain safe control of your vehicle.

DROWSY DRIVER DETECTION (DDD) —
I
F EQUIPPED
DDD detects when the driver is feeling fatigued and warns
the driver to pull over and take a break.
To Activate/Deactivate
DDD can be activated and deactivated through the
Uconnect system by selecting the following in order:

1. “Safety & Driving Assistance”

2. “Drowsy Driver Detection”
System Intervention
Using feedback obtained from the driver’s steering
patterns, any buttons/switches that are pressed, and from
the front camera, the system implements two operating
logics:
 The first operating logic takes the driving style into
account, observing the road and detecting to what
extent the driver can continue driving with few lane
crossing events. 
The second operating logic measures the time spent
behind the wheel with the vehicle speed above 40 mph
(60 km/h) and below 100 mph (160 km/h).
If the driving style indicates that the driver is unable to
follow the road trajectory and respect the horizontal lane
markings while within the operating speed range of the
system, a pop up will display on the instrument cluster
display to suggest that the driver should stop for a break.
An audible signal will also sound.
If the driver accepts the suggestion provided by the
system by pushing the “OK” button on the left side of the
steering wheel, the message will disappear from the
display.
If the driver does not acknowledge the warning it will be
displayed for 60 seconds and then disappear.
NOTE:In the event of a DDD system failure, a dedicated message
will appear in the instrument cluster display.

DDD Warning Message

WARNING!
 Before exiting a vehicle, always come to a complete
stop, then shift the automatic transmission into
PARK and apply the parking brake.
 Always make sure the keyless ignition node is in the
OFF position, key fob is removed from the vehicle
and vehicle is locked.
 Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Leaving children in a
vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally
injured. Children should be warned not to touch the
parking brake, brake pedal or the gear selector.
 Do not leave children or animals inside parked vehi -
cles in hot weather. Interior heat buildup may cause
serious injury or death.
WARNING!
The DDD system is an aid for driving and does not
relieve the driver of the responsibility of driving the
vehicle. If you experience fatigue while driving, pull over
safely for a break without waiting for the DDD to
intervene. Only return to the road when you are in the
right physical and mental condition to prevent
endangering yourself and other drivers.

SAFETY241
ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL (EBC)
S
YSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced EBC system.
This system includes the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS),
Brake Assist System (BAS), Electronic Brake Force
Distribution (EBD), Electronic Stability Control (ESC),
Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM), Hill Start Assist (HSA),
Intersection Collision Assist (ICA), and Traction Control
System (TCS). These systems work together to enhance
both vehicle stability and control in various driving
conditions.
Your vehicle may also be equipped with Dynamic Steering
Torque (DST), Rain Brake Support (RBS), Ready Alert
Braking (RAB), and Trailer Sway Control (TSC).
Brake Assist System (BAS)
The BAS is designed to optimize the vehicle’s braking
capability during emergency braking maneuvers. The
system detects an emergency braking situation by sensing
the rate and amount of brake application and then applies
optimum pressure to the brakes. This can help reduce
braking distances. The BAS complements the Anti-Lock
Brake System (ABS). Applying the brakes very quickly
results in the best BAS assistance. To receive the benefit
of the system, you must apply continuous braking
pressure during the stopping sequence (do not “pump”
the brakes). Do not reduce brake pedal pressure unless
braking is no longer desired. Once the brake pedal is
released, the BAS is deactivated.
Brake System Warning Light
The red Brake System Warning Light will turn on when the
ignition is placed in the ON/RUN mode and may stay on for
as long as four seconds.
If the Brake System Warning Light remains on or comes on
while driving, it indicates that the brake system is not
functioning properly and that immediate service is
required. If the Brake System Warning Light does not
come on when the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN mode,
have the light repaired as soon as possible.
Electronic Brake Force Distribution (EBD)
EBD manages the distribution of the braking torque
between the front and rear axles by limiting braking
pressure to the rear axle. This is done to prevent
overslip of the rear wheels to avoid vehicle instability, and
to prevent the rear axle from entering ABS before the
front axle.
Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM)
ERM anticipates the potential for wheel lift by monitoring
the driver’s steering wheel input and the speed of the
vehicle. When ERM determines that the rate of change of
the steering wheel angle and vehicle’s speed are
sufficient to potentially cause wheel lift, it then applies the
appropriate brake and may also reduce engine power to
lessen the chance that wheel lift will occur. ERM can only
reduce the chance of wheel lift occurring during severe or
evasive driving maneuvers; it cannot prevent wheel lift
due to other factors, such as road conditions, leaving the
roadway, or striking objects or other vehicles.
NOTE:
ERM is disabled any time the ESC is in “Full Off” mode (if
equipped). See
Úpage 242 for a complete explanation of
the available ESC modes.
WARNING!
The Brake Assist System (BAS) cannot prevent the
natural laws of physics from acting on the vehicle, nor
can it increase the traction afforded by prevailing road
conditions. BAS cannot prevent collisions, including
those resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving
on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning. The
capabilities of a BAS-equipped vehicle must never be
exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner, which
could jeopardize the user's safety or the safety of
others.
WARNING!
Many factors, such as vehicle loading, road conditions
and driving conditions, influence the chance that wheel
lift or rollover may occur. ERM cannot prevent all wheel
lift or rollovers, especially those that involve leaving the
roadway or striking objects or other vehicles. The
capabilities of an ERM-equipped vehicle must never be
exploited in a reckless or dangerous manner which
could jeopardize the user's safety or the safety of
others.
