152STARTING AND OPERATING
INDICATIONS ON THE DISPLAY
The Active Driving Assist system status can always be
viewed in the instrument cluster display, and status
changes are shown by changes in color of the system’s
indicator lights.
As the system detects driver inattentiveness as previously
described
Úpage 148, the system status indicator lights
will change from green, to yellow, to red. The following
indicators will change in color as warnings to the driver
escalate:
 Active Driving Assist Indicator (steering wheel icon in
the instrument cluster display or Head Up Display
[if equipped])
 Glow effect of the instrument cluster display
 For Hands-Free ADA only, light strips in the driver and
front passenger’s door panels (red and green only)
For Base ADA, if driver attention is not returned, the
system will deactivate.
For Hands-Free ADA, if driver attention is not returned, the
system will perform a Stop-In-Lane maneuver. Once the
vehicle is at a standstill, the vehicle will be shifted to PARK
and the Electric Park Brake (EPB) will be applied. Then, the
vehicle will attempt to place an emergency call through
the Assist and SOS system. If too many Stop-In-Lane
maneuvers are initiated, or if one is completed, the system
will be unavailable until the ignition is cycled OFF, then
back to ON. Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Off

ADA is not turned on/enabled by the driver.
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are White
 ADA is turned on/enabled by the driver, but the system
is not actively steering and providing speed control for
the vehicle.
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Green
 System is actively steering and providing speed control
for the vehicle and the system detects driver is atten -
tive.
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Yellow
 Driver inattentiveness has been detected, warning the
driver to place hands on the steering wheel, or look
back toward the road (if equipped with the Hands-Free
system).
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Red
 Driver inattentiveness is still being detected, or driver
take-over is being requested, warning the driver to
place hands on the steering wheel, or if equipped with
the Hands-Free system, take control of the vehicle.
NOTE:For both Base ADA and Hands-Free ADA, the driver MUST
replace hands on the steering wheel and take control of
the vehicle when the system is deactivated.

SYSTEM STATUS
Along with changes in the system’s indicator lights (green,
yellow, and red), the system can also issue several
accompanying warnings intended to provide the driver
with enough time to react, avoid or mitigate a potential
collision.
Base Active Driving Assist System
 Two haptic brake jerk warnings will be issued (red
warning light is being issued).
 A steering wheel vibration warning (if enabled) will
occur if the vehicle crosses a lane marker, for example,
when driving on a tight curve. The steering wheel vibra -
tion feature can be turned on or off within the Uconnect
system

SYSTEM OPERATION/LIMITATIONS
The Base Active Driving Assist and Hands-Free Active
Driving Assist systems DO NOT:
 Warn or prevent collisions with other vehicles
 Steer your vehicle around stopped vehicles, slower
vehicles, construction zones or equipment, pedes -
trians, or animals
 Respond to traffic lights or stop signs
 Merge onto highways or exit off ramps
 Change lanes (exception: Hands-Free, only when initi -
ated by the driver)
 React to cross traffic
NOTE:Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a core component of ADA.
For ACC system limitations Úpage 139.
The Active Driving Assist system may have limited or
reduced functionality when one of the following conditions
occur:
 The vehicle’s radar sensors and/or forward facing
camera is damaged, covered, misaligned, or
obstructed (e.g. by mud, ice, snow, etc.)
 If the suspension alignment is not correct, if the vehicle
is modified (e.g. lifting or lowering the suspension,
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.

NIGHT VISION CAMERA SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with a Night Vision Camera
system which uses an infrared camera to view the area
ahead of the vehicle, beyond the headlights, to detect
people and large animals when it is dark outside.
The system detects pedestrians or large animals by
measuring the temperature difference between the object
and the surrounding area.
The thermal objects detected by the camera can be
displayed in the instrument cluster display. Scroll to the
Night Vision page in the instrument cluster display menu
Úpage 104 to display the Night Vision screen.
Warm objects (e.g. animals) will appear lighter on the
display while cold objects (e.g. traffic signs) will appear
darker.
NOTE:
 Night Vision only shows objects of interest that are
warmer or colder than the surroundings.
 Adjust the instrument cluster dimmer control bright -
ness to make the image appear brighter or dimmer.
To exit out of the Night Vision screen, select a different
menu in the instrument cluster display.
A yellow or red border and box highlight will appear around
objects of interest. More than one object of interest may
be highlighted.

Highlight Around Objects Of Interest

The highlighting of the object(s) of interest will update in
real time based upon the current Night Vision
assessment.
The Night Vision system display can be deactivated under
certain conditions. See
Úpage 174 for further
information.
The two categories of Night Vision warnings are
Pedestrian Warnings and Animal Warnings.
Pedestrian Warning Telltale
Animal Warning Telltale
A Pedestrian or Animal Warning is considered either Level
1 or Level 2. Level 1 warnings are yellow, and Level 2
warnings are red. The colors are not configurable.

23_WS_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 172

STARTING AND OPERATING173
(Continued)
Level 1 Warnings:

Yellow telltale in the instrument cluster display
 Yellow highlights around the detected
pedestrian/animal
 Occurs when the vehicle is moving at speeds greater
than 8 mph (13 km/h) and the target is in or
approaching the vehicle path
Level 2 Warnings:
 Red telltale in the instrument cluster display
 Red highlights around the detected pedestrian/animal
 Occurs when the vehicle is moving at speeds greater
than 8 mph (13 km/h) and a collision with the detected
pedestrian/animal is possible
 The pedestrian/animal is directly in the vehicle path,
close to the headlight area
 A video pop-up will display when there is a target
detected and the instrument cluster display is not
showing the Night Vision page
 A chime will sound for a Level 2 Warning detection
event
Only one telltale can be displayed at a time based upon
priority.
The priority order of the warnings from highest to lowest is:

1. Pedestrian Warning Level 2

2. Animal Warning Level 2
3. Pedestrian Warning Level 1
4. Animal Warning Level 1
Level 2 Warnings may display in the Head Up Display
(if equipped).
NOTE:If the vehicle is stopped, or slowing down, all Level 2
warnings become Level 1 warnings.
You can enable or disable the warnings within the
Uconnect system
Úpage 197.
If the warnings are off, the telltales, chimes, and warning
messages will all be off. Pedestrians and animals can still
be detected by the system, but there will be no warnings. The Night Vision alert status telltale will be gray
when the warnings are suppressed. The telltale
will also turn gray to indicate that the alerts are
suppressed due to environmental factors (e.g.
daylight hours, external temperature is greater than 86°F
(30°C)) or if the gear selector is in REVERSE. When the
Night Vision alerts are active, the telltale will be green
Úpage 108.
Camera Washers
When the front window washer is activated, the Night
Vision camera will also be washed
Úpage 63.DETECTION RANGE
The system can detect people 4 ft (1.25 m) tall or greater
in the upright position. The system can also detect
animals that are four-legged and 3 ft (1 m) tall or greater
in the upright position.
The detection distance for the system is between 26 ft
(8 m) and 328 ft (100 m) from the front of the vehicle.WARNING!
 Do not jerk the steering wheel in response to a
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.

In certain cold conditions, ice may prevent the fuel
door from opening. If this occurs, lightly push
around the perimeter of the fuel door to break the
ice buildup.
 There is no fuel filler cap. Two flapper doors inside
the pipe seal the system.
2. Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler pipe – the nozzle opens and holds the flapper doors while
refueling.
NOTE:Only the correct size nozzle opens the latches allowing the
flapper doors to open.

Fuel Filler

3. Fill the vehicle with fuel – when the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off the fuel tank is full. 4. Wait five seconds before removing the fuel nozzle to
allow fuel to drain from nozzle.
5. Remove the fuel nozzle and close the fuel door. Engage the fuel door latch by pushing on the outer
edge near the center.
NOTE:For further information on fuel requirements see Úpage 372.
WARNING!
Never have any smoking materials lit in or near the
vehicle when the fuel door is open or the tank is
being filled.
 Never add fuel when the engine is running. This is in
violation of most state and federal fire regulations
and may cause the Malfunction Indicator Light to
turn on.
 A fire may result if fuel is pumped into a portable
container that is inside of a vehicle. You could be
burned. Always place fuel containers on the ground
while filling.
CAUTION!
To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not “top off” the
fuel tank after filling.

GAIN Adjustment Buttons (+/-)
Pushing these buttons will adjust the brake control power
output to the trailer brakes in 0.5 increments. The GAIN
setting can be increased to a maximum of 10 or
decreased to a minimum of 0 (no trailer braking).
GAIN
The GAIN setting is used to set the trailer brake control for
the specific towing condition and should be changed as
towing conditions change. Changes to towing conditions
include trailer load, vehicle load, road conditions and
weather.
Adjusting GAIN
NOTE:This should only be performed in a traffic free environment
at speeds of approximately 20–25 mph (30–40 km/h).

1. Make sure the trailer brakes are in good working condition, functioning normally and properly
adjusted. See a trailer dealer if necessary.

2. Hook up the trailer and make the electrical connections according to the trailer manufacturer's
instructions. 3. When a trailer with electric/EOH brakes is plugged in,
the trailer connected message should appear in the
instrument cluster display (if the connection is not
recognized by the ITBM, braking functions will not be
available), the GAIN setting will illuminate and the
correct type of trailer must be selected from the
instrument cluster display options.
4. Push the UP or DOWN button on the steering wheel until “TRAILER TOW” appears on the screen.
5. Push the RIGHT arrow on the steering wheel to enter “TRAILER TOW”.
6. Push the UP or DOWN buttons until the “Trailer Brake Type” appears on the screen.
7. Push the RIGHT arrow and then push the UP or DOWN buttons until the proper Trailer Brake Type appears
