STARTING AND OPERATING

Metric Speed (km/h)



Pushing the SET (+), or SET (-) button once will

result in a 1 km/h speed adjustment. Each

subsequent tap of the button results in an

adjustment of 1 km/h.



If the button is continually pushed, the set speed

will continue to adjust in 10 km/h increments

until the button is released. The new set speed is

reflected in the instrument cluster display.

NOTE:

When you override and push the SET (+) button or

SET (-) buttons, the new set speed will be the

current speed of the vehicle.
When ACC Is Active:
NOTE:



When you use the SET (-) button to decelerate, if

the engine’s braking power does not slow the

vehicle sufficiently to reach the set speed, the

brake system will automatically slow the

vehicle.



The ACC will bring the vehicle to a complete stop

while following a vehicle in front and hold the

vehicle for two seconds in the stop position. If

the vehicle in front does not start moving within

two seconds, the ACC system will display a

message that the system will release the brakes

and that the brakes must be applied manually.

An audible chime will sound when the brakes

are released.



The ACC system maintains set speed when

driving uphill and downhill. However, a slight

speed change on moderate hills is normal. In

addition, downshifting may occur while climbing

uphill or descending downhill. This is normal

operation and necessary to maintain set speed.

When driving uphill and downhill, the ACC

system will cancel if the braking temperature

exceeds normal range (overheated).

Setting The Following Distance In ACC

The specified following distance for ACC can be set

by varying the distance setting between four bars

(longest), three bars (long), two bars (medium) and

one bar (short). Using this distance setting and the

vehicle speed, ACC calculates and sets the

distance to the vehicle ahead. This distance

setting displays in the instrument cluster display.

Distance Settings

To increase the distance setting, push the

Distance Setting Increase button and release.

Each time the button is pushed, the distance

setting increases by one bar (longer).
To decrease the distance setting, push the

Distance Setting Decrease button and release.

Each time the button is pushed, the distance

setting decreases by one bar (shorter).

1 — Longest Distance Setting (Four Bars)
2 — Medium Distance Setting (Two Bars)
3 — Long Distance Setting (Three Bars)
4 — Short Distance Setting (One Bar)

STARTING AND OPERATING

105

If there is no vehicle ahead, the vehicle will

maintain the set speed. If a slower moving vehicle

is detected in the same lane, the instrument

cluster display will show the ACC Set With Target

Detected Indicator Light, and the system will adjust

the vehicle speed automatically to maintain the

distance setting, regardless of the set speed.
The vehicle will then maintain the set distance

until:



The vehicle ahead accelerates to a speed above

the set speed.



The vehicle ahead moves out of your lane or

view of the sensor.



The distance setting is changed.



The system disengages

page 102.

The maximum braking applied by ACC is limited;

however, the driver can always apply the brakes

manually, if necessary.
NOTE:

The brake lights will illuminate whenever the ACC

system applies the brakes.
A Proximity Warning will alert the driver if ACC

predicts that its maximum braking level is not

sufficient to maintain the set distance. If this

occurs, a visual alert “BRAKE!” will flash in the

instrument cluster display and a chime will sound

while ACC continues to apply its maximum braking

capacity.

NOTE:

The “BRAKE!” screen in the instrument cluster

display is a warning for the driver to take action

and does not necessarily mean that the Forward

Collision Warning system is applying the brakes

autonomously.

ACC Operation At Stop

In the event that the ACC system brings your

vehicle to a standstill while following the vehicle in

front, your vehicle will resume motion without any

driver interaction if the vehicle in front starts

moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming

to a standstill.
If the vehicle in front does not start moving within

two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill,

the ACC with Stop system will cancel and the

brakes will release. A cancel message will display

on the instrument cluster display and produce a

warning chime. Driver intervention will be required

at this moment.
While ACC with Stop is holding your vehicle at a

standstill, if the driver seat belt is unbuckled or the

driver door is opened, the ACC with Stop system

will cancel and the brakes will release. A cancel

message will display on the instrument cluster

display and produce a warning chime. Driver

intervention will be required at this moment.

Overtake Aid

When driving with ACC engaged and following a

vehicle, the system will provide an additional

acceleration up to the ACC set speed to assist in

passing the vehicle. This additional acceleration is

triggered when the driver utilizes the left turn

signal (Lane Change Assist feature included) and

will only be active when passing on the left hand

side. Switching lanes will not impact the ACC

system if the driver is already traveling at the set

speed.

Display Warnings And Maintenance

“WIPE FRONT RADAR SENSOR IN FRONT OF

VEHICLE” WARNING

The “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar

Sensor” warning will display and a chime will

sound when conditions temporarily limit system

performance.

WARNING!

When the ACC system is resumed, the driver

must ensure that there are no pedestrians,

vehicles or objects in the path of the vehicle.

Failure to follow these warnings can result in a

collision and death or serious personal injury.

106

STARTING AND OPERATING

This most often occurs at times of poor visibility,

such as in snow or heavy rain. The ACC system may

also become temporarily blinded due to

obstructions, such as mud, dirt or ice. In these

cases, the instrument cluster will display the above

message and the system will deactivate.
This message can sometimes be displayed while

driving in highly reflective areas (i.e. ice and snow,

or tunnels with reflective tiles). The ACC system will

recover after the vehicle has left these areas.

Under rare conditions, when the radar is not

tracking any vehicles or objects in its path this

warning may temporarily occur.
NOTE:

If the “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar

Sensor” warning is active, Fixed Speed Cruise

Control is still available.
If weather conditions are not a factor, the driver

should examine the sensor. It may require cleaning

or removal of an obstruction. The sensor is located

in the center of the vehicle behind the lower grille.
To keep the ACC system operating properly, it is

important to note the following maintenance

items:



Always keep the sensor clean. Carefully wipe the

sensor lens with a soft cloth. Be careful not to

damage the sensor lens.



Do not remove any screws from the sensor.

Doing so could cause an ACC system malfunc

tion or failure and require a sensor realignment.



If the sensor or front end of the vehicle is

damaged due to a collision, see an authorized

dealer for service.



Do not attach or install any accessories near the

sensor, including transparent material or after

market grilles. Doing so could cause an ACC

system failure or malfunction.

When the condition that deactivated the system is

no longer present, the system will return to the

“Adaptive Cruise Control Off” state and will resume

function by simply reactivating it.
NOTE:



If the “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar

Sensor” message occurs frequently (e.g. more

than once on every trip) without any snow, rain,

mud, or other obstruction, have the radar

sensor realigned at an authorized dealer.



Installing a snowplow, front-end protector, an

aftermarket grille or modifying the grille is not

recommended. Doing so may block the sensor

and inhibit ACC/FCW operation.

“CLEAN FRONT WINDSHIELD” WARNING

The “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front

Windshield” warning will display and a chime will

sound when conditions temporarily limit system

performance. This most often occurs at times of

poor visibility, such as in snow or heavy rain and

fog. The ACC system may also become temporarily

blinded due to obstructions, such as mud, dirt, or

ice on windshield and fog on the inside of glass. In

these cases, the instrument cluster display will

display “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean

Front Windshield” and the system will have

degraded performance.
This message can sometimes be displayed while

driving in adverse weather conditions. The ACC/

FCW system will recover after the vehicle has left

these areas. Under rare conditions, when the

camera is not tracking any vehicles or objects in its

path this warning may temporarily occur.
If weather conditions are not a factor, the driver

should examine the windshield and the camera

located on the back side of the inside rearview

mirror. They may require cleaning or removal of an

obstruction.

STARTING AND OPERATING

107

When the condition that created limited

functionality is no longer present, the system will

return to full functionality.
NOTE:

If the “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front

Windshield” message occurs frequently (e.g. more

than once on every trip) without any snow, rain,

mud, or other obstruction, have the windshield and

forward facing camera inspected at an authorized

dealer.

SERVICE ACC/FCW WARNING

If the system turns off, and the instrument cluster

displays “ACC/FCW Unavailable Service Required”

or “Cruise/FCW Unavailable Service Required”,

there may be an internal system fault or a

temporary malfunction that limits ACC

functionality. Although the vehicle is still drivable

under normal conditions, ACC will be temporarily

unavailable. If this occurs, try activating ACC again

later, following an ignition cycle. If the problem

persists, see an authorized dealer.

Precautions While Driving With ACC

In certain driving situations, ACC may have

detection issues. In these cases, ACC may brake

late or unexpectedly. The driver needs to stay alert

and may need to intervene. The following are

examples of these types of situations:

TOWING A TRAILER

Towing a trailer is not recommended when using

ACC.

OFFSET DRIVING

ACC may not detect a vehicle in the same lane that

is offset from your direct line of travel, or a vehicle

merging in from a side lane. There may not be

sufficient distance to the vehicle ahead. The offset

vehicle may move in and out of the line of travel,

which can cause your vehicle to brake or

accelerate unexpectedly.

Offset Driving Condition Example

TURNS AND BENDS

When driving on a curve with ACC engaged, the

system may increase or decrease the vehicle

speed for stability, with no vehicle ahead detected.

Once the vehicle is out of the curve, the system will

resume your original set speed. This is a part of

normal ACC system functionality.
NOTE:

On tight turns ACC performance may be limited.

USING ACC ON HILLS

ACC performance may be limited when driving on

hills. ACC may not detect a vehicle in your lane

depending on the speed, vehicle load, traffic

conditions, and the steepness of the hill.

ACC Hill Example

108

STARTING AND OPERATING

LANE CHANGING

ACC may not detect a vehicle until it is completely

in the lane in which you are traveling. In the lane

changing example below, ACC has not yet detected

the vehicle changing lanes and it may not detect

the vehicle until it's too late for the ACC system to

take action. ACC may not detect a vehicle until it is

completely in the lane. There may not be sufficient

distance to the lane-changing vehicle. Always be

attentive and ready to apply the brakes if

necessary.

Lane Changing Example

NARROW VEHICLES

Some narrow vehicles traveling near the outer

edges of the lane or edging into the lane are not

detected until they have moved fully into the lane.

There may not be sufficient distance to the vehicle

ahead.

Narrow Vehicle Example

STATIONARY OBJECTS AND VEHICLES

ACC does not react to stationary objects or

vehicles. For example, ACC will not react in

situations where the vehicle you are following exits

your lane and the vehicle ahead is stopped in your

lane. It will consider this stopped vehicle a

stationary object as it did not previously detect

movement from it. Always be attentive and ready

to apply the brakes if necessary.

Stationary Object And Stationary Vehicle Example

PARKSENSE FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST —

IF EQUIPPED

The ParkSense Park Assist system provides visual

and audible indications of the distance between

the rear and/or front fascia/bumper and a

detected obstacle when backing up or moving

forward (e.g. during a parking maneuver).
For limitations of this system and

recommendations, see

page 113.

ParkSense will retain the system state (enabled or

disabled) from the previous ignition cycle when the

ignition is changed to the ON/RUN position.

STARTING AND OPERATING

109

ParkSense can be active only when the gear

selector is in REVERSE or DRIVE. If ParkSense is

enabled at one of these gear selector positions,

the system will remain active until the vehicle

speed is increased to approximately 7 mph

(11 km/h) or above. The system will become active

again if the vehicle speed is decreased to speeds

less than approximately 6 mph (9 km/h).

ARK

ENSE

ENSORS

The four ParkSense sensors, located in the rear

fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind the

vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The

sensors can detect obstacles from approximately

12 inches (30 cm) up to 79 inches (200 cm) from

the rear fascia/bumper. These distances depend

on the location, type, and orientation of the

obstacle in the horizontal direction.
The six ParkSense sensors, located in the front

fascia/bumper, monitor the area in front of the

vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The

sensors can detect obstacles from approximately

12 inches (30 cm) up to 47 inches (120 cm) from

the front fascia/bumper. These distances depend

on the location, type, and orientation of the

obstacle in the horizontal direction.

ARK

ENSE

ISPLAY

The warning display will turn on indicating the

system status when the vehicle is in REVERSE, or

when the vehicle is in DRIVE and an obstacle has

been detected.
The system will indicate a detected obstacle by

showing a single arc in one or more regions based

on the obstacle’s distance and location relative to

the vehicle.
If an obstacle is detected in the center rear region,

the display will show a single solid arc in the center

rear region and will produce a one-half second

tone. As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle,

the display will show the single arc moving closer to

the vehicle and the tone will change from slow, to

fast, to continuous.
If an obstacle is detected in the left and/or right

rear region, the display will show a single flashing

arc in the left and/or right rear region and will

produce a fast sound tone. As the vehicle moves

closer to the obstacle, the display will show the

single arc moving closer to the vehicle and the tone

will change from fast to continuous.

If an obstacle is detected in the center front region,

the display will show a single arc in the center front

region. As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle,

the display will show the single arc moving closer to

the vehicle. A fast sound tone will be produced

when reaching the second flashing arc and will

change to a continuous tone when the first flashing

arc appears.
If an obstacle is detected in the left and/or right

front region, the display will show a single flashing

arc in the left and/or right front region and will

produce a fast tone. As the vehicle moves closer to

the obstacle, the display will show the single arc

moving closer to the vehicle and the tone will

change from fast to continuous.

RECAUTIONS

NOTE:



Ensure that the front and rear bumpers are free

of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris to keep the

ParkSense system operating properly.



Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibra

tions could affect the performance of

ParkSense.



When you turn ParkSense off, the instrument

cluster will display “PARKSENSE OFF.” Once you

turn ParkSense off, it remains off until you turn

it on again, even if you cycle the ignition.



When you move the gear selector to the

REVERSE position and ParkSense is turned off,

the instrument cluster will display “PARKSENSE

OFF” for as long as the vehicle is in REVERSE.



ParkSense, when on, will reduce the volume of

the radio when it is sounding a tone.



Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, taking

care not to scratch or damage them. The

sensors must not be covered with ice, snow,

slush, mud, dirt or debris. Failure to do so can

result in the system not working properly. The

ParkSense system might not detect an obstacle

behind or in front of the fascia/bumper, or it

could provide a false indication that an obstacle

is behind or in front of the fascia/bumper.



Use the ParkSense switch to turn the ParkSense

system off if objects such as bicycle carriers,

trailer hitches, etc., are placed within 12 inches

(30 cm) from the rear fascia/bumper. Failure to

do so can result in the system misinterpreting a

close object as a sensor problem, causing the

“PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE

REQUIRED” message to be displayed in the

instrument cluster.

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 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 ParkSense, it is strongly recom

mended 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/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.

LANESENSE — IF EQUIPPED

ANE

ENSE

PERATION

The LaneSense system is operational at speeds

above 37 mph (60 km/h) and below 112 mph

(180 km/h). The LaneSense system uses a

forward looking camera to detect lane markings

and measure vehicle position within the lane

boundaries.

When both lane markings are detected and the

driver unintentionally drifts out of the lane (no turn

signal applied), the LaneSense system provides a

haptic warning in the form of torque applied to the

steering wheel to prompt the driver to remain

within the lane boundaries. If the driver

unintentionally drifts out of the lane, the

LaneSense system provides a visual warning

through the instrument cluster display to prompt

the driver to remain within the lane boundaries.
The driver may manually override the haptic

warning by applying torque into the steering wheel

at any time.
When only a single lane marking is detected and

the driver unintentionally drifts across the lane

marking (no turn signal applied), the LaneSense

system provides visual warnings through the

instrument cluster display to prompt the driver to

remain within the lane. When only a single lane

marking is detected, a haptic (torque) warning will

not be provided.

NOTE:

When operating conditions have been met, the

LaneSense system will monitor if the driver’s

hands are on the steering wheel and provide an

audible warning to the driver if removed. The

system will cancel if the driver does not return their

hands to the wheel.

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

ParkSense in order to be able to stop in time

when an obstacle is detected. It is recom

initiated after the vehicle speed is above 8 mph

(13 km/h). The rear view camera image will turn

off when this counter reaches 10 seconds. The

counter will be reset when the vehicle speed is

8 mph (13 km/h) or below. If the vehicle speed

remains below 8 mph (13 km/h), the rear view

camera image will continue to be displayed until

the transmission is shifted into PARK, the vehicle’s

ignition is placed in the OFF position, or the image

defeat X button is pressed.

When enabled, active guidelines are overlaid on

the image to illustrate the width of the vehicle and

its projected backup path based on the steering

wheel position. Different colored zones indicate

the distance to the rear of the vehicle. The

following table shows the approximate distances

for each zone:

NOTE:

If snow, ice, mud, or any foreign substance builds

up on the camera lens, clean the lens, rinse with

water, and dry with a soft cloth. Do not cover the

lens.

WARNING!

Drivers must be careful when backing up even

when using the ParkView Rear Back Up Camera.

Always check carefully behind your vehicle, and

be sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other

vehicles, obstructions, or blind spots before

backing up. You are responsible for the safety of

your surroundings and must continue to pay

attention while backing up. Failure to do so can

result in serious injury or death.

CAUTION!



To avoid vehicle damage, ParkView should

only be used as a parking aid. The ParkView

camera is unable to view every obstacle or

object in your drive path.



To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle must be

driven slowly when using ParkView to be able

to stop in time when an obstacle is seen. It is

recommended that the driver look frequently

over his/her shoulder when using ParkView.



It is recommended that the driver look

frequently over his/her shoulder when

backing up, especially in sunny weather condi

tions, since there may be a glare from the sun

at certain angles that can make the image on

the touchscreen difficult to see.

NOTE:

In certain cold conditions, ice may prevent the fuel

door from opening. If this occurs, lightly push on

the fuel door to break the ice buildup and

re-release the fuel door using the inside release

button. Do not pry on the door.
3. There is no fuel filler cap. Two flapper doors

inside the pipe seal the system.

4. Insert the fuel nozzle fully into the filler pipe –

the nozzle opens and holds the flapper doors

while refueling.

5. Fill the vehicle with fuel – when the fuel nozzle

“clicks” or shuts off the fuel tank is full.

6. Maintain nozzle in filler for five seconds to

allow nozzle to drain.

7. Remove the fuel nozzle and close the fuel

door.

NOTE:

A funnel is provided (located in the trunk in the

spare tire area) to open the flapper doors to allow

for emergency refueling with a gas can.

the trunk.

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 Malfunc

tion 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.

(GVWR)

The GVWR is the total allowable weight of your

vehicle. This includes driver, passengers, and

cargo. The total load must be limited so that you do

not exceed the GVWR.

ATING

(GAWR)

The GAWR is the maximum capacity of the front

and rear axles. Distribute the load over the front

and rear axles evenly. Make sure that you do not

exceed either front or rear GAWR.

VERLOADING

The load carrying components (axle, springs, tires,

wheels, etc.) of your vehicle will provide

satisfactory service as long as you do not exceed

the GVWR and the front and rear GAWR.

WARNING!

Because the front wheels steer the vehicle, it is

important that you do not exceed the maximum

front or rear GAWR. A dangerous driving

condition can result if either rating is exceeded.

You could lose control of the vehicle and have a

collision.
