HOW DOES AUTO HOLD WORK

Auto Hold applies the brakes to hold your
vehicle after you stop it and release the
brake pedal. This can help when waiting
on a hill or in traffic.

SWITCHING AUTO HOLD ON
AND OFF

WARNING:

The system does not

replace the parking brake. When you
leave your vehicle, always apply the
parking brake.

WARNING:

You must remain in

your vehicle when the system turns on.
At all times, you are responsible for
controlling your vehicle, supervising the
system and intervening, if required.

WHAT IS TRACTION CONTROL

The traction control system helps to avoid
drive wheel spin and loss of traction.

HOW DOES TRACTION
CONTROL WORK

If your wheels begin to spin, the loss of
traction can compromise steering control
and stability of the vehicle. The traction
control system applies the brakes to
individual wheels and when needed,
reduces engine power at the same time to
increase traction.

SWITCHING TRACTION
CONTROL ON AND OFF

WARNING:

Operating your vehicle

with the traction control disabled could
lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.

E327252

The traction control system turns on each
time you switch the ignition on.

The button for the stability and traction
control system is on the instrument panel.

Press and release the button to switch
traction control off. The stability control
system remains fully active, to switch it off,
press and hold the button for a few
seconds, then release.

When you switch traction control off, a
message and an illuminated icon appear
on the instrument cluster.

Press the switch again to turn the traction
control system back on to normal
operation.

If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,
switching traction control off may be
beneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.

Your vehicle may have MyKey restrictions
regarding this feature. See

What Is

MyKey

HOW DOES STABILITY
CONTROL WORK

WARNING:

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 electronic
stability control system. In addition,
installing any stereo speakers may
interfere with and adversely affect the
electronic stability control system.
Reducing the effectiveness of the
electronic stability control system could
lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.

WARNING:

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 of your vehicle increasing the risk
of personal injury or property damage.
Activation of the electronic stability
control 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.

WARNING:

You are responsible for

controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death.

If a driving condition activates either the
stability control or traction control you may
experience the following conditions:

•

The stability and traction control light
flashes.

•

Your vehicle slows down.

•

Reduced engine power.

The stability control system has several
features built into it to help you maintain
control of your vehicle:

Electronic Stability Control

Electronic stability control enhances your
vehicle’s ability to prevent skids or lateral
slides by applying brakes to one or more
of the wheels individually and, if necessary,
reducing engine power.

Roll Stability Control

Roll stability control enhances your
vehicle’s ability to prevent rollovers by
detecting your vehicle’s roll motion and
the rate at which it changes by applying
the brakes to one or more wheels
individually.

Curve Control

Curve control enhances your vehicle’s
ability to follow the road when cornering
severely or avoiding objects in the roadway.
Curve control operates by reducing engine
power and, if necessary, applying brakes
to one or more of the wheels individually.

300

Stability Control

Side Wind Stabilization

Side wind stabilization is an advanced
feature that works by carefully applying
the brakes on one side of the vehicle to
reduce the effect of a side wind gust on
the vehicle's path.

Torque Vectoring by Brakes

Torque vectoring control applies brake
torque on the inner driven wheel in a curve
for better traction to avoid an understeer,
or oversteer situation. Unlike electronic
stability control, enhanced torque
vectoring control does not slow the
vehicle. It helps control excessive wheel
slip and gives the vehicle improved
cornering agility.

Traction Control

Traction control enhances your vehicle’s
ability to maintain traction of the wheels
by detecting and controlling wheel spin.

WHAT IS HILL DESCENT
CONTROL

Hill descent control allows the driver to set
and maintain vehicle speed while
descending steep slopes in various surface
conditions.

HOW DOES HILL DESCENT
CONTROL WORK

Hill descent control can maintain vehicle
speeds on downhill slopes between
2–20 mph (3–32 km/h). Above 20 mph
(32 km/h), the system remains on but the
descent speed cannot be set or
maintained.

Note:

The system does not function below

2 mph (3 km/h).

The system requires a cool down interval
after a period of sustained use. Hill descent
control provides a warning in the message
center and a tone sounds when the system
is about to disengage for cooling. At this
time, manually apply the brakes as needed
to maintain descent speed.

Note:

The amount of time that the system

can remain active before cooling varies with
conditions.

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

The electric power

steering system has diagnostic checks
that continuously monitor the system. If
a fault is detected, a message displays
in the information display. Stop your
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
Switch the vehicle off. After at least 10
seconds, switch the vehicle on and
watch the information display for a
steering system warning message. If a
steering system warning message
returns, have the system checked as
soon as possible.

WARNING:

If the system detects

an error, you may not feel a difference in
the steering, however a serious condition
may exist. Have your vehicle checked as
soon as possible. Failure to do so may
result in loss of steering control.

Adapt your speed and driving behavior
according to reduced steering assist.

Extreme continuous steering may increase
the effort to steer. This occurs to prevent
internal overheating and damage to the
steering system. If this occurs, you will not
lose the ability to steer your vehicle
manually nor will it cause damage to the
system. Normal steering and driving allows
the system to cool down and steering
assist returns to normal.

Note:

There is no fluid reservoir to check or

fill.

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
ADAPTIVE STEERING - VEHICLES
WITH: ACTIVE STEERING

The adaptive steering system changes the
steering ratio with changes to vehicle
speed, optimizing the steering response in
all conditions. The system also changes
when you switch on the transmission
tow/haul feature. When you select the
tow/haul button, the adaptive steering
system reduces vehicle sensitivity to
steering inputs at higher vehicle speeds,
while maintaining the ease of parking and
maneuverability at low speeds.

Note:

The adaptive steering system

continuously monitors for faults. If the
system detects a fault, a message appears
in the information display. If a red warning
message displays, stop your vehicle as soon
as it is safe to do so. The message could
clear if the fault is no longer present. If an
adaptive steering system warning message
appears each time you start your vehicle,
have the system checked as soon as
possible.

Note:

The system has a locking device. It

remains mechanically locked at a fixed
steering ratio with the lock engaged. You
may notice a click when you turn your
vehicle on or off.

Note:

If your vehicle loses electrical power

or detects a fault when you are driving, the
system shuts down and you retain a normal
steering function with a fixed steering ratio.
During this time, it is possible that the
steering wheel could not be straight when
the vehicle is driving straight ahead. In
addition, you could notice that the steering
wheel angle required to steer your vehicle
could be different.

311

Steering

Note:

During parking maneuvers, the

adaptive steering system balances the driver
workload for various steering wheel inputs
and vehicle loading conditions. Under
extreme operating conditions the system
locking device could engage. This strategy
prevents overheating and permanent
damage to the adaptive steering system.
Typical steering and driving maneuvers
allow the system to cool and return to
normal operation.

Adaptive Learning

Adaptive learning helps correct road
irregularities and improves overall handling
and steering. It communicates with the
brake system to help operate advanced
stability control and crash avoidance
systems. Additionally, whenever you
disconnect the battery or install a new
battery, you must drive your vehicle a short
distance before the system relearns the
strategy and reactivates all systems.
