AUTOMATIC TEMPERATURE CONTROL
(ATC)
Automatic Operation

1. Push the AUTO button on the front climate control
display, and the word “AUTO” will illuminate along
with two temperatures for the driver and front
passenger. The system will then automatically
regulate the amount of airflow.

2. Adjust the temperature you would like the system to maintain, by adjusting the driver, passenger, and rear
temperatures. Once the desired temperature is
displayed, the system will achieve, and automatically
maintain, that comfort level.
3. When the system is set up for your comfort level, it is not necessary to change the settings. You will
experience the greatest efficiency by simply allowing
the system to function automatically.
NOTE:It is not necessary to move the temperature settings. The
system automatically adjusts the temperature, mode, and
fan speed to provide comfort as quickly as possible. To provide you with maximum comfort in the automatic
mode during cold start-ups, the blower fan will remain on
low until the engine warms up. The fan will engage
immediately if the Defrost mode is selected, or by
changing the front blower setting.

used to adjust the interior temperature of your vehicle.
Voice Command will not work to adjust the heated seats
or steering wheel if equipped.
OPERATING TIPS
Refer to the chart at the end of this section for suggested
control settings for various weather conditions.
Summer Operation
The engine cooling system must be protected with a
high-quality antifreeze coolant to provide proper corrosion
protection and to protect against engine overheating. OAT
coolant (conforming to MS.90032) is recommended.
Winter Operation
To ensure the best possible heater and defroster
performance, make sure the engine cooling system is
functioning properly and the proper amount, type, and
concentration of coolant is used. Use of the Air
Recirculation mode during Winter months is not
recommended, because it may cause window fogging.
Vacation/Storage
For information on maintaining the Climate Control system
when the vehicle is being stored for an extended period of
time, see
Úpage 368.
CAUTION!
Interior air enters the Rear Climate Control system
through an intake grille, located in the right side trim
panel behind the third row seats. The heater outlets are
located in the right side trim panel, just behind the rear
doors. Do not block or place objects directly in front of
the inlet grille or heater outlets. The electrical system
could overload causing damage to the blower motor.

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.

23_WS_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 148

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

160STARTING AND OPERATING
(Continued)
PARKSENSE ACTIVE PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is intended to
assist the driver during parallel and perpendicular parking
maneuvers. The system works by identifying a proper
parking space, providing audible/visual instructions, and
controlling the steering wheel only, or the accelerator,
gear selector, brakes, and the steering wheel (if equipped
with the Fully Automated system). Depending on the
driver's parking maneuver selection, the ParkSense Active
Park Assist system is capable of maneuvering a vehicle
into a parallel or a perpendicular parking space on either
side (i.e., driver side or passenger side).
Two types of ParkSense Active Park Assist systems are
available:
Semi-Automatic ParkSense Active Park Assist
 ParkSense Automated Parking system Semi-Automatic ParkSense Active Park Assist —
If Equipped
The Semi-Automatic system detects parking spaces, and
controls the steering wheel only. The driver maintains
control of the accelerator, gear selector and brakes.
ParkSense Automated Parking — If Equipped
The Fully Automated system detects parking spaces, and
controls the accelerator, gear selector, brakes, and
steering wheel. In this mode, the system also provides
obstacle detection by providing visual and audible
warnings and automatic braking to avoid a collision.
If your vehicle is equipped with the Fully Automated
system, you can switch between Semi-Automatic and Fully
Automated mode in the Uconnect Settings
Úpage 197.
NOTE:

The driver is always responsible for controlling the
vehicle, responsible for any surrounding objects, and
must intervene as required.
 The system is designed to assist the driver and not to
substitute the driver.
 During a Semi-Automatic or Fully Automated
maneuver, if the driver touches the steering wheel
after being instructed to remove their hands from the
steering wheel, the system will cancel, and the driver
will be required to manually complete the parking
maneuver.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up even when
using ParkSense. Always check carefully behind your
vehicle, look behind you, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions,
and blind spots before backing up. You are respon -
sible for safety and must continue to pay attention to
your surroundings. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death.
 Before using ParkSense, 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 vehicles or obstacles because
the hitch ball will be much closer to the obstacle than
the rear fascia when the vehicle sounds the contin -
uous 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!
 ParkSense 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 Park -
Sense 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 Park -
Sense.
CAUTION!

23_WS_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 160

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.
