PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION
WARNINGS
Vehicle modifications involving braking
system, aftermarket roof racks,
suspension, steering system, tire
construction and wheel and tire size may
change the handling characteristics of your
vehicle and may adversely affect the
performance of the AdvanceTrac system. In
addition, installing any stereo loudspeakers
may interfere with and adversely affect the
AdvanceTrac system. Install any aftermarket
stereo loudspeaker as far as possible from
the front center console, the tunnel, and the
front seats in order to minimize the risk of
interfering with the AdvanceTrac sensors.
Reducing the effectiveness of the
AdvanceTrac system could lead to an
increased risk of loss of vehicle control,
vehicle rollover, personal injury and death. Remember that even advanced
technology cannot defy the laws of
physics. It’ s always possible to lose control
of a vehicle due to inappropriate driver input
for the conditions. Aggressive driving on any
road condition can cause you to lose control WARNINGS
of your vehicle increasing the risk of personal
injury or property damage. Activation of the
AdvanceTrac system is an indication that at
least some of the tires have exceeded their
ability to grip the road; this could reduce the
operator’ s ability to control the vehicle
potentially resulting in a loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury and
death. If your AdvanceTrac system activates,
SLOW DOWN. The AdvanceTrac with Roll Stability Control
system helps you keep control of your
vehicle when on a slippery surface. The
electronic stability control portion of the
system helps avoid skids and lateral slides
and roll stability control helps avoid a vehicle
rollover. The traction control system helps
avoid drive wheel spin and loss of traction.
See Using Traction Control (page 187).

The system sounds an audible warning when
obstacles are near either bumper in the
following manner:
•
Objects detected by the front sensors
are indicated by a high-pitched tone from
the front radio speakers.
• Objects detected by the rear sensors are
indicated by a lower pitched tone from
the rear radio speakers.
• The sensing system reports the obstacle
which is closest to the front or rear of the
vehicle. For example, if an obstacle is 24
inches (60 centimeters) from the front of
the vehicle and, at the same time, an
obstacle is only 16 inches (40
centimeters) from the rear of the vehicle,
the lower pitched tone sounds.
• An alternating warning sounds from the
front and rear if there are objects at both
bumpers that are closer than 10 inches
(25 centimeters).
For specific information on the reverse
sensing portion of the system, refer to that
section. ACTIVE PARK ASSIST (If Equipped) WARNING
Designed to be a supplementary park
aid, this system may not work in all
conditions. This system cannot replace the
driver’ s attention and judgment. The driver
is responsible for avoiding hazards and
maintaining a safe distance and speed, even
when the system is in use. Note:
The driver is always responsible for
controlling the vehicle, supervising the
system and intervening if required.
Note: The sensors may not detect objects
in heavy rain or other conditions that cause
disruptive reflections.
Note: The sensors may not detect objects
with surfaces that absorb ultrasonic waves.
Note: Whenever the battery is disconnected
or a new battery installed, you need to drive
your vehicle a short distance and your speed
must exceed 12.4 mph (20 km/h) so the
system can recalibrate the steering angle
data. The system detects an available parallel
parking space and automatically steers your
vehicle into the space (hands-free) while you
control the accelerator, gearshift and brakes.
The system visually and audibly instructs you
to park the vehicle.
The system may not function correctly if
something passes between the front bumper
and the parking space (a pedestrian or
cyclist) or if the edge of the neighboring
parked vehicle is high off the ground (for
example, a bus, tow truck or flatbed truck).
Do not use the system if:
•
You have attached a foreign object (bike
rack or trailer) to the front or rear of your
vehicle or attached close to the sensors
• You have attached an overhanging
object (surfboard) to the roof
• The front bumper or side sensors are
damaged or obstructed by a foreign
object (front bumper cover)
• A mini-spare tire is in use

Supported Media Players, Formats and
Metadata Information
SYNC is capable of hosting nearly any digital
media player, including iPod, Zune, plays
from device players, and most USB drives.
Supported audio formats include MP3, WMA,
WAV and AAC.
It is also able to organize your indexed media
from your playing device by metadata tags.
Metadata tags, which are descriptive
software identifiers embedded in the media
files, provide information about the file. If your indexed media files contain no
information embedded in these metadata
tags, SYNC may classify the empty metadata
tags as Unknown.
