To Activate/Deactivate

Push and release the Adaptive Cruise Control

(ACC) on/off button. The ACC menu in the

instrument cluster display will read “ACC Ready.”
To turn the system off, push and release the

Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) on/off button again.

At this time, the system will turn off and the

instrument cluster display will read “Adaptive

Cruise Control (ACC) Off.”

To Set A Desired Speed

When the vehicle reaches the speed desired, push

the SET (+) button or the SET (-) button and

release. The instrument cluster display will show

the set speed.

NOTE:

Fixed Speed Cruise Control can be used without

ACC enabled. To change between the different

modes, push the ACC on/off button which turns

the ACC and the Fixed Speed Cruise Control off.

Pushing the Fixed Speed Cruise Control on/off

button will result in turning on (changing to) Fixed

Speed Cruise Control mode.

If ACC is set when the vehicle speed is below

20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed will default to

20 mph (32 km/h).

NOTE:

Fixed Speed Cruise Control cannot be set below

20 mph (32 km/h).
If either system is set when the vehicle speed is

above 20 mph (32 km/h), the set speed shall be

the current speed of the vehicle.

NOTE:



Keeping your foot on the accelerator pedal can

cause the vehicle to continue to accelerate

beyond the set speed. If this occurs, the

message “DRIVER OVERRIDE” will display in the

instrument cluster display.



If you continue to accelerate beyond the set

speed while ACC is enabled, the system will not

be controlling the distance between your vehicle

and the vehicle ahead. The vehicle speed will

only be determined by the position of the accel

erator pedal.

To Cancel

The following conditions cancel the ACC or Fixed

Speed Cruise Control systems:



The brake pedal is applied



The CANC (cancel) button is pushed



The Anti-Lock Brake system (ABS) activates



The gear selector is removed from the DRIVE

position

system on when not in use is dangerous. You

could accidentally set the system or cause it to

go faster than you want. You could lose control

and have a collision. Always leave the system off

when you are not using it.

WARNING!

In Fixed Speed Cruise Control mode (ACC not

enabled), the system will not react to vehicles

ahead. In addition, the proximity warning does

not activate and no alarm will sound even if you

are too close to the vehicle ahead since neither

the presence of the vehicle ahead nor the

vehicle-to-vehicle distance is detected. Be sure

to maintain a safe distance between your vehicle

and the vehicle ahead. Always be aware which

mode is selected.

(32 km/h) when only Fixed Speed Cruise Control is

being used.
Resume can be used at any speed above 0 mph

(0 km/h) when ACC is active.

NOTE:



While in ACC mode when the vehicle comes to a

complete stop longer than two seconds, the

system will cancel. The driver will have to apply

the brakes to keep the vehicle at a standstill.



ACC cannot be resumed if there is a stationary

vehicle in front of your vehicle in close proximity.

To Vary The Speed Setting

To Increase Or Decrease The Set Speed
After setting a speed, you can increase the set

speed by pushing the SET (+) button, or decrease

speed by pushing the SET (-) button.
U.S. Speed (mph)



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

result in a 1 mph speed adjustment. Each

subsequent tap of the button results in an

adjustment of 1 mph.



If the button is continually pushed, the set

speed will continue to adjust in 5 mph incre

ments until the button is released. The new set

speed is reflected in the instrument cluster

display.

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 incre

ments until the button is released. The new set

speed is reflected in the instrument cluster

display.

WARNING!

The Resume function should only be used if

traffic and road conditions permit. Resuming a

set speed that is too high or too low for

prevailing traffic and road conditions could

cause the vehicle to accelerate or decelerate too

sharply for safe operation. Failure to follow these

warnings can result in a collision and death or

serious personal injury.

STARTING AND OPERATING

189

NOTE:

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

button, the new set speed will be the current speed

of the vehicle.
When ACC Is Active



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 system applies the brake down to a full

stop when following a vehicle in front. If your

vehicle follows a vehicle ahead to a standstill,

your vehicle brakes will release two seconds

after coming to a full stop.



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 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 Decrease button and release. Each time

the button is pushed, the distance setting

decreases by one bar (shorter).

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 displays the ACC Set with Target Indicator

Light, and the system adjusts 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 186

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.

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

190

STARTING AND OPERATING

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.

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 and will only be active when passing on the

left hand side.

ACC Operation At A Stop (Automatic

Transmission Only)

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 the

need for any driver action 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.

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.
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 display 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 cautious 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.

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.

STARTING AND OPERATING

191



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.

“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

read “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.
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

display reads “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.

192

STARTING AND OPERATING

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.

The driver must maintain control of the vehicle,

remain alert, and be ready to apply the brakes if

needed.

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

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

STARTING AND OPERATING

193

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/REAR PARK ASSIST

SYSTEM — 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

system limitations and usage precautions, see

page 198.

ParkSense will retain the last system state

(enabled or disabled) from the last ignition cycle

when the ignition is placed in the ON/RUN position.
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. A warning will appear in the

instrument cluster display indicating the vehicle is

above ParkSense operating speed. 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 in the horizontal direction,

depending on the location, type and orientation of

the obstacle.
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 in the horizontal direction,

depending on the location, type and orientation of

the obstacle.

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 front region,

the display will show a single solid arc in the center

front region with no chime. As the vehicle moves

closer to the obstacle, the display will show the

single arc moving closer to the vehicle and a fast

sound tone will be heard and will change from fast,

to continuous.

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 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

SAGE

RECAUTIONS

NOTE:



Ensure that the front and rear fascia/bumpers

are free of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris to

keep the ParkSense system operating properly.



Jackhammers, large trucks, and other

vibrations could affect the performance of

ParkSense.



When you turn the ParkSense system off, the

instrument cluster display will show a vehicle

graphic of the ParkSense on/off state for two

seconds. Furthermore, once you turn Park

Sense 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 display will show the

“ParkSense OFF” message. This message will

be displayed 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 obstacles such as bicycle carriers,

trailer hitches, etc. are placed within 12 inches

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

so can result in the system misinterpreting a

close obstacle as a sensor problem, causing the

“PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE

REQUIRED” message to appear in the instru

ment cluster display.



ParkSense should be disabled when the tailgate

is in the lowered or open position. A lowered tail

gate could provide a false indication that an

obstacle is behind the vehicle.

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.

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

mended that the driver looks over his/her

shoulder when using ParkSense.

2. Remove the fuel cap by rotating it counter

clockwise.

Fuel Filler Cap

3. Fully insert the gasoline nozzle into the filler

pipe. Fill the vehicle with fuel.

4. When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the

fuel tank is full. Wait five seconds before

removing the fuel nozzle to allow excess fuel to

drain from nozzle.

5. Remove gasoline nozzle, reinstall fuel cap and

close the fuel filler door.

NOTE:



When the fuel nozzle “clicks” or shuts off, the

fuel tank is full.



Tighten the fuel filler cap about a quarter turn

until you hear one click. This is an indication that

the cap is properly tightened.



If the fuel filler cap is not tightened properly, the

MIL will come on. Be sure the cap is tightened

every time the vehicle is refueled.

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 (MIL) 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!



Damage to the fuel system or emission control

system could result from using an improper

fuel filler cap. A poorly fitting cap could let

impurities into the fuel system. Also, a poorly

fitting aftermarket cap can cause the Malfunc

tion Indicator Light (MIL) to illuminate, due to

fuel vapors escaping from the system.



To avoid fuel spillage and overfilling, do not

“top off” the fuel tank after filling.
