Forward Collision Alert (FCA)
System
If your vehicle has this feature, be sure to read
this entire section before using it.
The system operates on a radio frequency subject
to Federal Communications Commission (FCC)
Rules and with Industry Canada.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC
Rules. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. This device may not cause interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.This device complies with RSS-210 of Industry
Canada. Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. This device may not cause interference, and
2. This device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may
cause undesired operation of the device.
Changes or modications to this system by other
than an authorized service facility could void
authorization to use this equipment.
The Forward Collision Alert (FCA) system provides
an audible and visual warning if you approach a
vehicle too rapidly. FCA also provides a visual
warning with no audible warning if you are
following another vehicle much too closely. FCA
uses the Adaptive Cruise Control radar to detect a
vehicle directly ahead, in your path, within a
distance of 328 ft (100 m) and operates at
speeds above 20 mph (32 km/h).

Adaptive Cruise Control is an enhancement to
traditional cruise control and is not a safety
system. It allows you to keep cruise control
engaged in moderate traffic conditions without
having to constantly reset your cruise control.
Adaptive Cruise Control uses radar to detect a
vehicle directly ahead in your path, within a
distance of 328 ft (100 m), and operates at speeds
above 25 mph (40 km/h). When it is engaged by
the driver, the system can apply limited braking or
acceleration of the vehicle, automatically, to
maintain a selected follow distance to the vehicle
ahead. The vehicle’s braking during Adaptive
Cruise Control is comparable to a person applying
moderate pressure to the vehicle’s brake pedal.

Head-Up Display (HUD)
{CAUTION:
If the HUD image is too bright, or too high
in your eld of view, it may take you more
time to see things you need to see when it
is dark outside. Be sure to keep the HUD
image dim and placed low in your eld
of view.
If equipped, the Head-Up Display (HUD) allows
you to see some of the driver information that
appears on your instrument panel cluster on the
windshield.
The information may be displayed in English or
metric units and appears as an image focused out
toward the front of your vehicle. To change
from English to metric units, seeDIC Controls and
Displays on page 258.
The HUD consists of the following information:
Speedometer
Turn Signal Indicators
High-Beam Indicator Symbol

When the System Does Not Seem to Work
Properly
The light may ash red when the vehicle is in
REVERSE (R), if the ultrasonic sensors are not
kept clean. So be sure to keep your rear bumper
free of mud, dirt, snow, ice and slush. Other
conditions that may affect system performance
include things like the vibrations from a jackhammer
or the compression of air brakes on a very large
truck. If after cleaning the rear bumper and then
driving forward at least 15 mph (25 km/h), the
display continues to ash red, see your dealer.
If a trailer was attached to your vehicle, or a
bicycle or an object was hanging out of your trunk
during your last drive cycle, the light may also
ash red. The light will continue to ash whenever
in REVERSE (R) until your vehicle is driven
forward at least 15 mph (25 km/h) without any
obstructions behind the vehicle.
For cleaning instructions, seeWashing Your
Vehicle on page 480.
Accessory Power Outlet(s)
Your vehicle is equipped with accessory power
outlets. The outlets can be used to plug in
electrical equipment such as a cellular telephone,
CB radio, etc.
Your vehicle has one outlet in front of the center
console, one in the center console lid and
there may be an additional outlet in the rear of the
center console.
Your vehicle may have a small cap that must be
removed to access the accessory power outlet. If it
does, when not using the outlet be sure to cover
it with the protective cap.
Notice:Leaving electrical equipment plugged
in for an extended period of time while the
vehicle is off will drain the battery. Power is
always supplied to the outlets. Always unplug
electrical equipment when not in use and
do not plug in equipment that exceeds
the maximum 20 ampere rating.

BATTERY VOLTAGE HIGH
This symbol appears
with this message.
This message displays when the electrical
charging system is overcharging the battery.
When the system detects that the battery voltage
is above an estimated 16 volts, this message
displays.
To reduce the charging overload, use the vehicle’s
accessories. Turn on the exterior lamps and
radio, set the climate control on AUTO and the fan
speed on the highest setting, and turn the rear
window defogger on.
The normal battery voltage range is
11.5 to 15.5 volts when the engine is running.
You can monitor battery voltage on the DIC
by pressing the information button until you nd
BATTERY VOLTS.
BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW
This symbol appears
with this message.
This message displays when the electrical system
is charging less than 10 volts or the battery has
been drained.
If this message appears immediately after starting
the engine, it is possible that the generator can
still recharge the battery. The battery should
recharge while driving, but may take a few hours
to do so. Consider using an auxiliary charger
to boost the battery after returning home or to a
nal destination. Make sure you follow the
manufacturer’s instructions.
If this message appears while driving or after
starting your vehicle and stays on, have it checked
immediately to determine the cause of this problem.

NO FOBS DETECTED
This message displays if the vehicle does not
detect the presence of a keyless access
transmitter when you have attempted to start the
vehicle or a vehicle door has just closed. The
following conditions may cause this message
to appear:
Driver-added equipment plugged into the
accessory power outlet on the center console
is causing interference. Examples of these
devices are cell phones and cell phone
chargers, two-way radios, power inverters, or
similar items. Try moving the keyless
access transmitter away from these devices
when starting the vehicle. In addition,
PDA devices and remote garage and gate
openers may also generate Electromagnetic
Interference (EMI) that may interfere with
the keyless access transmitter. Do not carry
the keyless access transmitter in the same
pocket or bag as these devices.
The vehicle is experiencing Electromagnetic
Interference (EMI). Some locations, such as
airports, automatic toll booths, and some
gas stations, have EMI elds which may
interfere with the keyless access transmitter.
If moving the transmitter
to different locations
within the vehicle does
not help, place the
transmitter in the center
console transmitter
pocket with the buttons
facing forward and
then press the
START button.
The vehicle’s battery voltage is low. The
battery voltage must be above 10 volts for
the keyless access transmitter to be
detected properly.
272

NO FOB OFF OR RUN?
This message displays when the keyless access
transmitter is not detected inside the vehicle
while you are trying to turn the ignition off. Your
vehicle may be near a strong radio antenna signal
causing the keyless access system to be jammed.
The vehicle remains in Acc. until OFF or START
has been pressed or 10 minutes has expired.
If you turn the ignition off and you cannot nd the
keyless access transmitter, you will not be
able to restart the vehicle. The keyless access
transmitter needs to be inside of the vehicle
in order for the vehicle to start. SeeStarting the
Engine on page 113for more information.
OIL PRESSURE LOW STOP ENGINE
Notice:If you drive your vehicle while
the engine oil pressure is low, severe engine
damage may occur. If a low oil pressure
warning appears on the instrument panel
cluster and/or DIC, stop the vehicle as soon as
possible. Do not drive the vehicle until the
cause of the low oil pressure is corrected. See
Engine Oil on page 380for more information.
This message displays when the vehicle’s
engine oil pressure is low.A multiple chime sounds when this message is
displayed. SeeEngine Oil on page 380for
more information.
Stop the vehicle immediately, as engine damage
can result from driving a vehicle with low oil
pressure. Have the vehicle serviced by your dealer
as soon as possible when this message is
displayed.
PASSENGER DOOR AJAR
This symbol appears
with this message.
This message displays if the passenger’s side
front door was not closed completely. Make sure
that the door is closed completely.
