

PARK = SSC remains enabled but not active

NOTE:



During SSC, the +/- gear selector input is used

for SSC target speed selection but will not affect

the gear chosen by the transmission. While

actively controlling SSC, the transmission will

shift appropriately for the driver-selected set

speed and corresponding driving conditions.



SSC operation is influenced by Off Road+ drive

mode if active. The differences may be notable

to the driver as a varying level of aggressive

ness.

Driver Override
The driver may override SSC activation with throttle

or brake application at any time.
Deactivating SSC
SSC will be deactivated but remain available if any

of the following conditions occur:



The driver overrides SSC set speed with throttle

or brake application.



The vehicle speed exceeds 20 mph (32 km/h)

but remains below 40 mph (64 km/h).



The vehicle is shifted into PARK.

Disabling SSC
SSC will deactivate and be disabled if any of the

following conditions occur:



The driver pushes the SSC switch.



The driveline is shifted out of the 4WD Low.



The parking brake is applied.



The vehicle is driven greater than 20 mph

(32 km/h) for greater than 70 seconds.



The vehicle is driven greater than 40 mph

(64 km/h). SSC will exist immediately.



The driver door opens. (Driver door opens if

doors are attached or driver seat belt is

unbuckled if doors are detached).

Feedback To The Driver
The instrument cluster has an SSC icon and the

SSC switch has a lamp that offers feedback to the

driver about the state SSC is in.



The cluster icon and switch lamp will illuminate

and remain on solid when SSC is enabled or

activated. These are the normal operating

conditions for SSC.



The cluster icon and switch lamp will flash for

several seconds then extinguish when the driver

pushes the SSC switch but enabled conditions

are not met.



The cluster icon and switch lamp will flash for

several seconds then extinguish when SSC

disables due to excess speed.



The cluster icon and switch lamp will flash then

extinguish when SSC deactivates due to over

heated brakes.

WARNING!

SSC is only intended to assist the driver in

controlling vehicle speed when driving in

off-road conditions. The driver must remain

attentive to the driving conditions and is

responsible for maintaining a safe vehicle

speed.

284

SAFETY

Traction Control System (TCS)

TCS monitors the amount of wheel spin of each of

the driven wheels. If wheel spin is detected, the

TCS may apply brake pressure to the spinning

wheel(s) and/or reduce engine power to provide

enhanced acceleration and stability. A feature of

the TCS, Brake Limited Differential (BLD) functions

similarly to a limited slip differential and controls

the wheel spin across a driven axle. If one wheel on

a driven axle is spinning faster than the other, the

system will apply the brake of the spinning wheel.

This will allow more engine torque to be applied to

the wheel that is not spinning. BLD may remain

enabled even if TCS and Electronic Stability Control

(ESC) are in reduced modes.

Trailer Sway Control (TSC)

TSC uses sensors in the vehicle to recognize an

excessively swaying trailer and will take the

appropriate actions to attempt to stop the sway.

NOTE:

TSC cannot stop all trailers from swaying. Always

use caution when towing a trailer and follow the

trailer tongue weight recommendations

page 192.

When TSC is functioning, the ESC Activation/

Malfunction Indicator Light will flash, the engine

power may be reduced and you may feel the

brakes being applied to individual wheels to

attempt to stop the trailer from swaying. TSC is

disabled when the ESC system is in the “Partial

Off” or “Full Off” modes.

AUXILIARY DRIVING SYSTEMS

LIND

POT

ONITORING

(BSM) —

QUIPPED

The BSM system uses two radar sensors, located

inside the taillights, to detect highway licensable

vehicles (automobiles, trucks, motorcycles, etc.)

that enter the blind spot zones from the rear/front/

side of the vehicle.

Rear Detection Zones

When the vehicle is started, the BSM Warning Light

will momentarily illuminate in both outside

rearview mirrors to let the driver know that the

system is operational. The BSM system sensors

operate when the vehicle is in any forward gear

and enters standby mode when the vehicle is in

PARK (P).
The BSM detection zone covers approximately one

lane width on both sides of the vehicle 12 ft

(3.8 m). The zone length starts at the outside

rearview mirror and extends approximately 10 ft

(3 m) beyond the rear fascia/bumper of the

vehicle. The BSM system monitors the detection

zones on both sides of the vehicle when the vehicle

speed reaches approximately 6 mph (10 km/h) or

higher and will alert the driver of vehicles in these

areas.

NOTE:



The BSM system DOES NOT alert the driver

about rapidly approaching vehicles that are

outside the detection zones.



The BSM system detection zone DOES NOT

change if your vehicle is towing a trailer. There

fore, visually verify the adjacent lane is clear for

both your vehicle and trailer before making a

lane change. If the trailer or other object (i.e.,

bicycle, sports equipment) extends beyond the

side of your vehicle, this may result in the BSM

WARNING!

If TSC activates while driving, slow the vehicle

down, stop at the nearest safe location, and

adjust the trailer load to eliminate trailer sway.

SAFETY

285

Warning Light remaining illuminated the entire

time the vehicle is in a forward gear

page 207.



The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system may

experience dropouts (blinking on and off) of the

side mirror warning indicator lamps when a

motorcycle or any small object remains at the

side of the vehicle for extended periods of time

(more than a couple of seconds).

The BSM system can become blocked if snow, ice,

mud, or other road contaminations accumulate on

the rear fascia/bumper where the radar sensors

are located. The system may also detect blockage

if the vehicle is operated in areas with extremely

low radar returns such as a desert or parallel to a

large elevation drop. If blockage is detected, a

“Blind Spot Temporarily Unavailable, Wipe Rear

Corners” message will display in the cluster, both

mirror lights will illuminate, and BSM and RCP

alerts will not occur. This is normal operation. The

system will automatically recover and resume

function when the condition clears. To minimize

system blockage, do not block the area of the rear

fascia/bumper where the radar sensors are

located with foreign objects (bumper stickers,

bicycle racks, etc.) and keep it clear of road

contaminations.

BSM Radar Location (Left Side Shown)

The BSM system notifies the driver of objects in the

detection zones by illuminating the BSM Warning

Light located in the outside mirrors in addition to

sounding an audible (chime) alert and reducing the

radio volume

page 287.

Warning Light Location

The BSM system monitors the detection zone from

three different entry points (side, rear, front) while

driving to see if an alert is necessary. The BSM

system will issue an alert during these types of

zone entries.
Entering From The Side
Vehicles that move into your adjacent lanes from

either side of the vehicle.

Side Monitoring

286

SAFETY

Entering From The Rear
Vehicles that come up from behind your vehicle on

either side and enter the rear detection zone with

a relative speed of less than 30 mph (48 km/h).

Rear Monitoring

Overtaking Traffic
If you pass another vehicle slowly with a relative

speed less than 15 mph (24 km/h) and the vehicle

remains in the blind spot for approximately 1.5 sec-

onds, the warning light will be illuminated. If the

difference in speed between the two vehicles is

greater than 15 mph (24 km/h), the warning light

will not illuminate.

Overtaking/Approaching

Overtaking/Passing

The BSM system is designed not to issue an alert

on stationary objects such as guardrails, posts,

walls, foliage, berms, etc. However, occasionally

the system may alert on such objects. This is

normal operation and your vehicle does not require

service.

The BSM system will not alert you of objects that

are traveling in the opposite direction of the vehicle

in adjacent lanes

page 431.

Opposing Traffic

WARNING!

The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only an aid

to help detect objects in the blind spot zones.

The BSM system is not designed to detect

pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals. Even if your

vehicle is equipped with the BSM system, always

check your vehicle’s mirrors, glance over your

shoulder, and use your turn signal before

changing lanes. Failure to do so can result in

serious injury or death.

SAFETY

287

Rear Cross Path (RCP)

RCP is intended to aid the driver when backing out

of parking spaces where their vision of oncoming

vehicles may be blocked. Proceed slowly and

cautiously out of the parking space until the rear

end of the vehicle is exposed. The RCP system will

then have a clear view of the cross traffic and if an

oncoming vehicle is detected, alert the driver.

RCP Detection Zones

RCP monitors the rear detection zones on both

sides of the vehicle, for objects that are moving

toward the side of the vehicle with a minimum

speed of approximately 3 mph (5 km/h), to objects

moving a maximum of approximately 20 mph

(32 km/h), such as in parking lot situations.
When RCP is on and the vehicle is in REVERSE, the

driver is alerted using both the visual and audible

alarms, including reducing the radio volume.

NOTE:

In a parking lot situation, oncoming vehicles can be

blocked by vehicles parked on either side. If the

sensors are blocked by other structures or

vehicles, the system will not be able to alert the

driver.

Blind Spot Modes

Blind Spot has three selectable modes of

operation that are available in the Uconnect

system.
Blind Spot Alert Lights Only
When operating in Blind Spot Alert mode, the BSM

system will provide a visual alert in the appropriate

side view mirror based on a detected object.

However, when the system is operating in Rear

Cross Path (RCP) mode, the system will respond

with both visual and audible alerts when a

detected object is present. Whenever an audible

alert is requested, the radio is muted.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime

mode, the BSM system will provide a visual alert in

the appropriate side view mirror based on a

detected object. If the turn signal is then activated,

and it corresponds to an alert present on that side

of the vehicle, an audible chime will also be

sounded. Whenever a turn signal and detected

object are present on the same side at the same

time, both the visual and audible alerts will be

issued. In addition to the audible alert the radio (if

on) will also be muted.

NOTE:

Whenever an audible alert is requested by the

BSM system, the radio is also muted.
When the system is in RCP, the system shall

respond with both visual and audible alerts when a

detected object is present. Whenever an audible

alert is requested, the radio is also muted. Turn/

hazard signal status is ignored; the RCP state

always requests the chime.

WARNING!

Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) is not a backup

aid system. It is intended to be used to help a

driver detect an oncoming vehicle in a parking

lot situation. Drivers must be careful when

backing up, even when using RCP. 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. Failure to do so can result in

serious injury or death.

288

SAFETY

Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off there will be no

visual or audible alerts from either the BSM or RCP

systems.

NOTE:

The BSM system will store the current operating

mode when the vehicle is shut off. Each time the

vehicle is started the previously stored mode will

be recalled and used.
Door Removal
When either the front driver or passenger door is

removed, the instrument cluster will display “Blind

Spot Temporarily Unavailable” and the BSM

system will disable. While the system will continue

to indicate whatever blind spot mode it was

previously in within the Uconnect system, no visual

or audible alerts will be provided. As long as the

doors are removed, the instrument cluster will

provide the “Blind Spot Temporarily Unavailable”

pop-up as a reminder that the system is disabled

every time the ignition is cycled.
Upon re-installation of both doors, the system will

resume functionality based on the personalized

mode selected.

ORWARD

OLLISION

ARNING

(FCW)

ITH

ITIGATION

— I

QUIPPED

The FCW with Mitigation system provides the driver

with audible warnings, visual warnings (within the

instrument cluster display), and may apply a haptic

warning in the form of a brake jerk, to warn the

driver when it detects a potential frontal collision.

The warnings are intended to provide the driver

with enough time to react, avoid or mitigate the

potential collision.

NOTE:

FCW monitors the information from the forward

looking sensors as well as Electronic Brake

Controller (EBC), to calculate the probability of a

forward collision. When the system determines

that a forward collision is probable, the driver will

be provided with audible and visual warnings as

well as a possible haptic warning in the form of a

brake jerk.
If the driver does not take action based upon these

progressive warnings, then the system will provide

a limited level of active braking to help slow the

vehicle and mitigate the potential forward collision.

If the driver reacts to the warnings by braking and

the system determines that the driver intends to

avoid the collision by braking but has not applied

sufficient brake force, the system will compensate

and provide additional brake force as required.
If a FCW with Mitigation event begins at a speed

below 32 mph (52 km/h), the system may provide

the maximum braking possible to mitigate the

potential forward collision. If the Forward Collision

Warning with Mitigation event stops the vehicle

completely, the system will hold the vehicle at

standstill for two seconds and then release the

brakes.

FCW Message

When the system determines a collision with the

vehicle in front of you is no longer probable, the

warning message will be deactivated

page 431.

NOTE:



The minimum speed for FCW activation is

3 mph (5 km/h).



The FCW alerts may be triggered on objects

other than vehicles such as guardrails or sign

posts based on the course prediction. This is

expected and is a part of normal FCW activation

and functionality.

SAFETY

289



It is unsafe to test the FCW system. To prevent

such misuse of the system, after four Active

Braking events within a key cycle, the Active

Braking portion of FCW will be deactivated until

the next key cycle.



The FCW system is intended for on-road use

only. If the vehicle is taken off-road, the FCW

system should be deactivated to prevent unnec

essary warnings to the surroundings.



FCW may not react to irrelevant objects such as

overhead objects, ground reflections, objects

not in the path of the vehicle, stationary objects

that are far away, oncoming traffic, or leading

vehicles with the same or higher rate of speed.



FCW will be disabled like ACC, with the unavail

able screens.

Turning FCW On Or Off

The FCW setting menu can be adjusted through

the Uconnect Settings

page 207.



To turn the FCW system on, select between

“Only Warning” and “Warning and Braking” in

the FCW menu.



Select “OFF” in the FCW menu to turn the FCW

system off.

NOTE:



When the FCW is “on”, this allows the system to

warn the driver of a possible collision with the

vehicle in front.



When the FCW is “off”, this prevents the system

from warning the driver of a possible collision

with the vehicle in front. If the FCW is set to “off”,

“FCW OFF” will be displayed in the instrument

cluster display.



When FCW status is set to “Only Warning”, this

prevents the system from providing limited

active braking, or additional brake support if the

driver is not braking adequately in the event of

a potential frontal collision.



When FCW status is set to “Warning and

Braking”, this allows the system to warn the

driver of a possible collision with the vehicle in

front using audible/visual warnings and it

applies autonomous braking.



The system will retain the last setting selected

by the driver after ignition shutdown.

FCW Braking Status And Sensitivity

The FCW Sensitivity and Active Braking status are

programmable through the Uconnect system

page 207.



Far



When the sensitivity of FCW is set to the

“Far” setting, this allows the system to warn

the driver of a possible more distant colli

sion with the vehicle in front using audible/

visual warnings.



More cautious drivers that do not mind

frequent warnings may prefer this setting.

NOTE:

The “Far” setting may result in a greater number of

FCW possible collision warnings experienced.



Medium



When the sensitivity of FCW is set to the

“Medium” setting, this allows the system to

warn the driver of a possible collision with

the vehicle in front using audible/visual

warnings.

WARNING!

Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not intended

to avoid a collision on its own, nor can FCW

detect every type of potential collision. In rare

situations, the system may react to surrounding

objects such as tunnels, bridges, guardrails, etc.

The driver has the responsibility to avoid a

collision by controlling the vehicle via braking,

steering, and acceleration. Unintended braking

reactions can always be overridden by pressing

down hard on the accelerator. Failure to follow

this warning could lead to serious injury or

death.

290

SAFETY



Near



When the sensitivity of FCW is set to the

“Near” setting, this allows the system to

warn the driver of a possible closer collision

with the vehicle in front using audible/

visual warnings.



This setting provides less reaction time than

the “Far” and “Medium” settings, which

allows for a more dynamic driving experi

ence.



More dynamic or aggressive drivers that

want to avoid frequent warnings may prefer

this setting.

NOTE:

The “Near” setting may result in a lesser number of

FCW possible collision warnings experienced.

FCW Limited Warning

If the instrument cluster displays “ACC/FCW

Limited Functionality” or “ACC/FCW Limited

Functionality Clean Front Windshield”

momentarily, there may be a condition that limits

FCW functionality. Although the vehicle is still

drivable under normal conditions, the active

braking may not be fully available. Once the

condition that limited the system performance is

no longer present, the system will return to its full

performance state. If the problem persists, see an

authorized dealer.

Service FCW Warning

If the system turns off, and the instrument cluster

displays:



ACC/FCW Unavailable Service Required



Cruise/FCW Unavailable Service Required

This indicates there is an internal system fault.

Although the vehicle is still drivable under normal

conditions, have the system checked by an

authorized dealer.

IRE

RESSURE

ONITORING

YSTEM

(TPMS)

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) will

warn the driver of a low tire pressure based on the

vehicle recommended cold placard pressure.

NOTE:

The alert warning on the cluster will stay on until

the tire is inflated to the placard pressure.
The tire pressure will vary with temperature by

approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C).

This means that when the outside temperature

decreases, the tire pressure will decrease. Tire

pressure should always be set based on cold

inflation tire pressure. This is defined as the tire

pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for

at least three hours, or driven less than 1 mile

(1.6 km) after a three hour period. The cold tire

inflation pressure must not exceed the maximum

inflation pressure molded into the tire sidewall.

The tire pressure will also increase as the vehicle

is driven. This is normal and there should be no

adjustment for this increased pressure.
See

page 391 on how to properly inflate the

vehicle’s tires.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire pressure

if the tire pressure falls below the low-pressure

warning limit for any reason, including low

temperature effects and natural pressure loss

through the tire.
The TPMS will continue to warn the driver of low

tire pressure as long as the condition exists, and

will not turn off until the tire pressure is at or above

the recommended cold placard pressure. Once the

low tire pressure warning (Tire Pressure Monitoring

System Warning Light) illuminates, you must

increase the tire pressure to the recommended

cold placard pressure in order for the TPMS

Warning Light to turn off.

NOTE:

When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may need

to be increased up to an additional 4 psi (28 kPa)

above the recommended cold placard pressure in

order to turn the TPMS Warning Light off.

SAFETY

291

The system will automatically update and the

TPMS Warning Light will turn off once the system

receives the updated tire pressures. The vehicle

may need to be driven for up to 20 minutes above

15 mph (24 km/h) in order for the TPMS to receive

this information.
For example, your vehicle may have a

recommended cold (parked for more than three

hours) placard pressure of 33 psi (227 kPa). If the

ambient temperature is 68°F (20°C) and the

measured tire pressure is 28 psi (193 kPa), a

temperature drop to 20°F (-7°C) will decrease the

tire pressure to approximately 24 psi (165 kPa).

This tire pressure is low enough to turn on the

TPMS Warning Light. Driving the vehicle may cause

the tire pressure to rise to approximately 28 psi

(193 kPa), but the TPMS Warning Light will still be

on. In this situation, the TPMS Warning Light will

turn off only after the tires are inflated to the

vehicle’s recommended cold placard pressure

value

page 431.

NOTE:

When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may need

to be increased up to an additional 4 psi (28 kPa)

above the recommended cold placard pressure in

order to turn the TPMS Warning Light off.

NOTE:



The TPMS is not intended to replace normal tire

care and maintenance, or to provide warning of

a tire failure or condition.



The TPMS should not be used as a tire pressure

gauge while adjusting your tire pressure, unless

your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Fill Alert or

Selectable Tire Fill Alert feature.



Driving on a significantly underinflated tire

causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire

failure. Underinflation also reduces fuel effi

ciency and tire tread life, and may affect the

vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.



The TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire

maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility

to maintain correct tire pressure using an accu

rate tire pressure gauge, even if underinflation

has not reached the level to trigger illumination

of the TPMS Warning Light.



Seasonal temperature changes will affect tire

pressure, and the TPMS will monitor the actual

tire pressure in the tire.

CAUTION!



The TPMS has been optimized for the original

equipment tires and wheels. TPMS pressures

and warning have been established for the tire

size equipped on your vehicle. Undesirable

system operation or sensor damage may

result when using replacement equipment

that is not of the same size, type, and/or style.

The TPMS sensor is not designed for use on

aftermarket wheels, and may contribute to a

poor overall system performance. Customers

are encouraged to use Original Equipment

Manufacturer (OEM) wheels to ensure TPMS

feature operation.



Using aftermarket tire sealants may cause the

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)

sensor to become inoperable. After using an

aftermarket tire sealant it is recommended

that you take your vehicle to an authorized

dealer to have your sensor function checked.



After inspecting or adjusting the tire pressure

always reinstall the valve stem cap. This will

prevent moisture and dirt from entering the

valve stem, which could damage the TPMS

sensor.

292

SAFETY

System Operation

The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) uses

wireless technology with wheel rim mounted

electronic sensors to monitor tire pressure levels.

Sensors, mounted to each wheel as part of the

valve stem, transmit tire pressure readings to the

receiver module.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System Display

NOTE:

It is particularly important for you to check the tire

pressure in all of the tires on your vehicle monthly

and to maintain the proper pressure.
The TPMS consists of the following components:



Receiver module



Four Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensors



Various Tire Pressure Monitoring System

messages, which display in the instrument

cluster



Tire Pressure Monitoring Warning Light

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM LOW

PRESSURE WARNINGS

The TPMS Warning Light will illuminate in

the instrument cluster and a chime will

sound when tire pressure is low in one or

more of the four active road tires. In

addition, the instrument cluster will display a "Tire

Low" message for a minimum of five seconds, an

"Inflate to XX" message and a graphic showing the

pressure values of each tire with the low tire

pressure values in a different color.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System Low Pressure Warning

Should this occur, you should stop as soon as

possible and inflate the tires with low pressure

(those in a different color in the instrument cluster

graphic) to the vehicle’s recommended cold

placard pressure value as shown in the "Inflate to

XX" message. Once the system receives the

updated tire pressures, the system will

automatically update, the pressure values in the

graphic display in the instrument cluster will return

to their original color, and the TPMS Warning Light

will turn off.

NOTE:

When filling warm tires, the tire pressure may need

to be increased up to an additional 4 psi (28 kPa)

above the recommended cold placard pressure in

order to turn the TPMS Warning Light off.
The vehicle may need to be driven for up to

20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h) in order for

the TPMS to receive this information.

SERVICE TPMS WARNING

When a system fault is detected, the TPMS

Warning Light will flash on and off for 75 seconds

and then remain on solid. The system fault will also

sound a chime. In addition, the instrument cluster

will display a "SERVICE TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM"

message for a minimum of five seconds and then

display dashes (--) in place of the pressure value to

indicate which sensor is not being received.
If the ignition is cycled, this sequence will repeat,

providing the system fault still exists. If the system

fault no longer exists, the TPMS Warning Light will

no longer flash, and the “SERVICE TIRE PRESSURE

SYSTEM” message will no longer display, and a

pressure value will display in place of the dashes.

SAFETY

293

A system fault can occur due to any of the

following:



Jamming due to electronic devices or driving

next to facilities emitting the same radio

frequencies as the TPMS sensors



Installing some form of aftermarket window

tinting that affects radio wave signals



Lots of snow or ice around the wheels or wheel

housings



Using tire chains on the vehicle



Using wheels/tires not equipped with TPMS

sensors

Vehicles With A Full-Size Matching Spare
1. If your vehicle is equipped with a matching

full-size spare wheel and tire assembly, it has

a Tire Pressure Monitoring System sensor,

and can be monitored by the Tire Pressure

Monitoring System (TPMS) when swapped

with a low pressure road tire.

2. In the event that the matching full-size spare

tire is swapped with a low pressure road tire,

the next ignition switch cycle will still show the

TPMS Warning Light to be on, a chime to

sound, an Inflate to XX message to appear in

the instrument cluster, and the graphic display

will still show the low tire pressure value in a

different color.

3. Driving the vehicle for up to 20 minutes above

15 mph (24 km/h) will turn off the TPMS

Warning Light as long as none of road tires are

below the low pressure warning threshold.

TPMS DEACTIVATION — IF EQUIPPED

The TPMS can be deactivated if replacing all four

wheel and tire assemblies (road tires) with wheel

and tire assemblies that do not have TPMS

sensors, such as when installing winter wheel and

tire assemblies on your vehicle.
To deactivate the TPMS, first replace all four wheel

and tire assemblies (road tires) with tires not

equipped with Tire Pressure Monitoring System

sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for 20 minutes

above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS will chime,

the TPMS Warning Light will flash on and off for 75

seconds and then remain on. The instrument

cluster will display the “SERVICE TIRE PRESSURE

SYSTEM” message and then display dashes (--) in

place of the pressure values.
Beginning with the next ignition cycle, the TPMS

will no longer chime or display the “SERVICE TIRE

PRESSURE SYSTEM” message in the instrument

cluster but dashes (--) will remain in place of the

pressure values.
To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four wheel and

tire assemblies (road tires) with tires equipped with

TPMS sensors. Then, drive the vehicle for up to

20 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS

will chime, the TPMS Warning Light will flash on

and off for 75 seconds and then turn off. The

instrument cluster will display the “SERVICE TIRE

PRESSURE SYSTEM” message and then display

pressure values in place of the dashes. On the next

ignition cycle the "SERVICE TIRE PRESSURE

SYSTEM" message will no longer be displayed as

long as no system fault exists.

TIRE FILL ALERT

This feature notifies the user when the placard tire

pressure is attained while inflating or deflating the

tire.
The customer may choose to disable or enable the

Tire Fill Alert feature in the customer settings menu

of the Uconnect system.

NOTE:



Only one tire can be filled at a time when using

the Tire Fill Alert system.



The Tire Fill Alert feature cannot be entered if an

existing TPMS fault is set to “active” or if the

system is in deactivation mode (if equipped).

The system will be activated when the system

detects an increase in tire pressure while filling the

tire. The ignition must be in the ON/RUN mode with

the transmission in PARK for vehicles equipped

with an automatic transmission. For vehicles

equipped with a manual transmission, the parking

brake must be applied.

SAFETY

NOTE:

It is not required to have the engine running to

enter Tire Fill Alert mode.
The hazard lamps will come on to confirm the

vehicle is in Tire Fill Alert mode. If the hazard lamps

do not come on while inflating the tire, the Tire

Pressure Monitoring System sensor may be in an

inoperative position, preventing the TPMS sensor

signal from being received. In this case, the vehicle

may need to be moved slightly forward or

backward.
When Tire Fill Alert mode is entered, the tire

pressure display screen will be displayed in the

instrument cluster.
Operation:



The horn will chirp once to let the user know

when to stop filling the tire, when it reaches

recommended pressure.



The horn will chirp three times if the tire is over

filled and will continue to chirp every five

seconds if the user continues to inflate the tire.



The horn will chirp once again when enough air

is let out to reach proper inflation level.



The horn will also chirp three times if the tire is

then underinflated and will continue to chirp

every five seconds if the user continues to

deflate the tire.

NOTE:

The Tire Fill Alert feature is set to “Disabled” every

time the ignition is turned to “OFF”. To re-enable

the Tire Fill Alert feature at the next ignition “RUN”

state, the customer must re-enable the feature

through use of the customer settings in the radio.

SELECTABLE TIRE FILL ALERT (STFA) —

IF EQUIPPED

The STFA system is an optional feature that is

included as part of the normal Tire Fill Alert system.

The system is designed to allow you to select a

pressure to inflate or deflate the vehicle's front and

rear axle tires to, and to provide feedback while

inflating or deflating the vehicle's tires.

NOTE:

To use the STFA feature, the Tire Fill Alert feature

must be enabled through use of the customer

settings in the radio.
In the Selectable Tire Fill Alert application, which is

located in the apps menu of the Uconnect system,

you will be able to select a pressure setting for both

the front and rear axle tire pressures by scrolling

through a pressure range from XX to 15 psi in 1 psi

increments for each axle setting.
XX = the vehicle's cold placard pressure values for

the front and rear axles as shown on the vehicle

placard pressure label.

You may also store pressure values chosen for

each axle in the Uconnect system application as

preset pressure values. Up to two sets of preset

pressure values can be stored in the Uconnect

system for the front and rear axle. Once you select

the tire pressures for the front and rear axles that

you want to inflate or deflate to, you can begin

inflating or deflating one tire at a time.

NOTE:

The STFA system will only support inflating or

deflating one tire at a time.
The system will be activated when the TPMS

receiver module detects a change in tire pressure.

The ignition must be in the ON/RUN mode, with the

transmission in PARK in vehicles with an automatic

transmission, and in NEUTRAL with the parking

brake engaged in vehicles with a manual

transmission. The hazard lamps will come on to

confirm the vehicle is in Tire Fill Alert mode.
When Tire Fill Alert mode is entered, the tire

pressure screen will be displayed in the instrument

cluster. If the hazard lamps do not come on while

inflating or deflating the tire, the Tire Pressure

Monitoring System sensor may be in an

inoperative position, preventing the TPMS sensor

signal from being received. In this case, the vehicle

may need to be moved slightly forward or

backward.

SAFETY

295

Horn chirps will indicate STFA status as tires are

inflated/deflated. The horn will chirp under the

following STFA states:
1. The horn will chirp once when the selected

pressure is reached to let you know when to

stop inflating or deflating the tire.

2. The horn will chirp three times if the tire is

over-inflated or over-deflated.

3. The horn will chirp once again when enough air

is added or removed to reach proper selected

pressure level.

OCCUPANT RESTRAINT SYSTEMS

Some of the most important safety features in your

vehicle are the restraint systems:

CCUPANT

ESTRAINT

YSTEMS

EATURES



Seat Belt Systems



Supplemental Restraint Systems (SRS) Air Bags



Child Restraints

Some of the safety features described in this

section may be standard equipment on some

models, or may be optional equipment on others. If

you are not sure, ask an authorized dealer.

MPORTANT

AFETY

RECAUTIONS

Please pay close attention to the information in

this section. It tells you how to use your restraint

system properly, to keep you and your passengers

as safe as possible.
Here are some simple steps you can take to

minimize the risk of harm from a deploying air bag:
1. Children 12 years old and under should

always ride buckled up in the rear seat of a

vehicle with a rear seat.

2. A child who is not big enough to wear the

vehicle seat belt properly must be secured in

the appropriate child restraint or

belt-positioning booster seat in a rear seating

position

page 314.

3. If a child from 2 to 12 years old (not in a

rear-facing child restraint) must ride in the

front passenger seat, move the seat as far

back as possible and use the proper child

restraint

page 314.

4. Never allow children to slide the shoulder belt

behind them or under their arm.

5. You should read the instructions provided with

your child restraint to make sure that you are

using it properly.

6. All occupants should always wear their lap and

shoulder belts properly.

7. The driver and front passenger seats should

be moved back as far as practical to allow the

front air bags room to inflate.

8. Do not lean against the door or window. If your

vehicle has side air bags, and deployment

occurs, the side air bags will inflate forcefully

into the space between occupants and the

door and occupants could be injured.

9. If the air bag system in this vehicle needs to be

modified to accommodate a disabled person,

see

page 428 for customer service contact

information.

WARNING!



Never place a rear-facing child restraint in

front of an air bag. A deploying passenger

front air bag can cause death or serious injury

to a child 12 years or younger, including a

child in a rear-facing child restraint.



Never install a rear-facing child restraint in the

front seat of a vehicle. Only use a rear-facing

child restraint in the rear seat. If the vehicle

does not have a rear seat, do not transport a

rear-facing child restraint in that vehicle.

SAFETY

EAT

ELT

YSTEMS

Buckle up even though you are an excellent driver,

even on short trips. Someone on the road may be

a poor driver and could cause a collision that

includes you. This can happen far away from home

or on your own street.
Research has shown that seat belts save lives, and

they can reduce the seriousness of injuries in a

collision. Some of the worst injuries happen when

people are thrown from the vehicle. Seat belts

reduce the possibility of ejection and the risk of

injury caused by striking the inside of the vehicle.

Everyone in a motor vehicle should be belted at all

times.

Enhanced Seat Belt Use Reminder System

(BeltAlert)

Driver And Passenger BeltAlert — If Equipped

BeltAlert is a feature intended to remind

the driver and outboard front seat

passenger (if equipped with outboard

front passenger seat BeltAlert) to buckle

their seat belts. The BeltAlert feature is active

whenever the ignition switch is in the START or ON/

RUN position.
Initial Indication
If the driver is unbuckled when the ignition switch

is first in the START or ON/RUN position, a chime

will signal for a few seconds. If the driver or

outboard front seat passenger (if equipped with

outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) is

unbuckled when the ignition switch is first in the

START or ON/RUN position the Seat Belt Reminder

Light will turn on and remain on until both outboard

front seat belts are buckled. The outboard front

passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when an

outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied.
BeltAlert Warning Sequence
The BeltAlert warning sequence is activated when

the vehicle is moving above a specified vehicle

speed range and the driver or outboard front seat

passenger is unbuckled (if equipped with outboard

front passenger seat BeltAlert) (the outboard front

passenger seat BeltAlert is not active when the

outboard front passenger seat is unoccupied). The

BeltAlert warning sequence starts by blinking the

Seat Belt Reminder Light and sounding an

intermittent chime. Once the BeltAlert warning

sequence has completed, the Seat Belt Reminder

Light will remain on until the seat belts are

buckled. The BeltAlert warning sequence may

repeat based on vehicle speed until the driver and

occupied outboard front seat passenger seat belts

are buckled. The driver should instruct all

occupants to buckle their seat belts.
Change Of Status
If the driver or outboard front seat passenger (if

equipped with outboard front passenger seat

BeltAlert) unbuckles their seat belt while the

vehicle is traveling, the BeltAlert warning sequence

will begin until the seat belts are buckled again.
The outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert is not

active when the outboard front passenger seat is

unoccupied. BeltAlert may be triggered when an

animal or other items are placed on the outboard

front passenger seat or when the seat is folded flat

(if equipped). It is recommended that pets be

restrained in the rear seat (if equipped) in pet

harnesses or pet carriers that are secured by seat

belts, and cargo is properly stowed.
BeltAlert can be activated or deactivated by an

authorized dealer. FCA US LLC does not

recommend deactivating BeltAlert.

NOTE:

If BeltAlert has been deactivated and the driver or

outboard front seat passenger (if equipped with

outboard front passenger seat BeltAlert) is

unbuckled the Seat Belt Reminder Light will turn

on and remain on until the driver and outboard

front seat passenger seat belts are buckled.

Lap/Shoulder Belts

All seating positions in your vehicle are equipped

with lap/shoulder belts.
The seat belt webbing retractor will lock only during

very sudden stops or collisions. This feature allows

the shoulder part of the seat belt to move freely

with you under normal conditions. However, in a

SAFETY

297

(Continued)

collision the seat belt will lock and reduce your risk

of striking the inside of the vehicle or being thrown

out of the vehicle.

WARNING!



Relying on the air bags alone could lead to

more severe injuries in a collision. The air

bags work with your seat belt to restrain you

properly. In some collisions, the air bags won’t

deploy at all. Always wear your seat belt even

though you have air bags.



In a collision, you and your passengers can

suffer much greater injuries if you are not

properly buckled up. You can strike the inte

rior of your vehicle or other passengers, or you

can be thrown out of the vehicle. Always be

sure you and others in your vehicle are

buckled up properly.



It is dangerous to ride in a cargo area, inside

or outside of a vehicle. In a collision, people

riding in these areas are more likely to be seri

ously injured or killed.



Do not allow people to ride in any area of your

vehicle that is not equipped with seats and

seat belts.



Be sure everyone in your vehicle is in a seat

and using a seat belt properly. Occupants,

including the driver, should always wear their

seat belts whether or not an air bag is also

provided at their seating position to minimize

the risk of severe injury or death in the event

of a crash.



Wearing your seat belt incorrectly could make

your injuries in a collision much worse. You

might suffer internal injuries, or you could

even slide out of the seat belt. Follow these

instructions to wear your seat belt safely and

to keep your passengers safe, too.



Two people should never be belted into a

single seat belt. People belted together can

crash into one another in a collision, hurting

one another badly. Never use a lap/shoulder

belt or a lap belt for more than one person, no

matter what their size.

WARNING!



A lap belt worn too high can increase the risk

of injury in a collision. The seat belt forces

won’t be at the strong hip and pelvic bones,

but across your abdomen. Always wear the lap

part of your seat belt as low as possible and

keep it snug.



A twisted seat belt may not protect you prop

erly. In a collision, it could even cut into you.

Be sure the seat belt is flat against your body,

without twists. If you can’t straighten a seat

belt in your vehicle, take it to an authorized

dealer immediately and have it fixed.



A seat belt that is buckled into the wrong

buckle will not protect you properly. The lap

portion could ride too high on your body,

possibly causing internal injuries. Always

buckle your seat belt into the buckle nearest

you.



A seat belt that is too loose will not protect you

properly. In a sudden stop, you could move too

far forward, increasing the possibility of injury.

Wear your seat belt snugly.

298

SAFETY

Lap/Shoulder Belt Operating Instructions

1. Enter the vehicle and close the door. Sit back

and adjust the seat.

2. The seat belt latch plate is above the back of

the front seat, and next to your arm in the rear

seat (for vehicles equipped with a rear seat).

Grab the latch plate and pull out the seat belt.

Slide the latch plate up the webbing as far as

necessary to allow the seat belt to go around

your lap.

Pulling Out The Latch Plate

3. When the seat belt is long enough to fit, insert

the latch plate into the buckle until you hear a

“click.”

Inserting Latch Plate Into Buckle

4. Position the lap belt so that it is snug and lies

low across your hips, below your abdomen. To

remove slack in the lap belt portion, pull up on

the shoulder belt. To loosen the lap belt if it is

too tight, tilt the latch plate and pull on the lap

belt. A snug seat belt reduces the risk of sliding

under the seat belt in a collision.

Positioning The Lap Belt



A seat belt that is worn under your arm is

dangerous. Your body could strike the inside

surfaces of the vehicle in a collision,

increasing head and neck injury. A seat belt

worn under the arm can cause internal inju

ries. Ribs aren’t as strong as shoulder bones.

Wear the seat belt over your shoulder so that

your strongest bones will take the force in a

collision.



A shoulder belt placed behind you will not

protect you from injury during a collision. You

are more likely to hit your head in a collision if

you do not wear your shoulder belt. The lap

and shoulder belt are meant to be used

together.



A frayed or torn seat belt could rip apart in a

collision and leave you with no protection.

Inspect the seat belt system periodically,

checking for cuts, frays, or loose parts.

Damaged parts must be replaced immedi

ately. Do not disassemble or modify the seat

belt system. If your vehicle is involved in a

collision, or if you have questions regarding

seat belt or retractor conditions, take your

vehicle to an authorized FCA dealer or autho

rized FCA Certified Collision Care Program

facility for inspection.
