To Deactivate
A soft tap on the brake pedal, pulling the Electronic
Speed Control lever toward you, or normal brake pres-
sure while slowing the vehicle will deactivate Electronic
Speed Control without erasing the set speed memory.
Pressing the ON/OFF button or turning off the ignition
switch erases the set speed memory.
To Resume Speed
To resume a previously set speed, push the RESUME
ACCEL lever up and release. Resume can be used at any
speed above 20 mph (32 km/h).
To Vary the Speed Setting
When the Electronic Speed Control is ON, speed can be
increased by pushing up and holding RESUME ACCEL.
Release the Electronic Speed Control lever when the
desired speed is reached, and the new speed will be set.
Tapping RESUME ACCEL once will result ina1mph
(2 km/h) speed increase. Each time the Electronic SpeedControl lever is tapped, speed increases so that tapping
the Electronic Speed Control lever three times will in-
crease speed by 3 mph (5 km/h).
To decrease speed while Electronic Speed Control is ON,
push down and hold SET DECEL. Release the Electronic
Speed Control lever when the desired speed is reached,
and the new speed will be set.
Tapping the SET DECEL lever once will result ina1mph
(2 km/h) speed decrease. Each time the lever is tapped,
speed decreases.

NOTE:
•The Electronic Speed Control System maintains speed
up and down hills. A slight speed change on moderate
hills is normal.
•On steep hills a greater speed loss or gain may occur so
it may be preferable to drive without Electronic Speed
Control.
REAR PARK ASSIST — IF EQUIPPED
The Rear Park Assist provides visible and audible indi-
cations of the distance between the rear fascia and the
detected obstacle when backing up. Refer to the Warning
Section and Note Section for limitations of this system
and recommendations.
The Rear Park Assist will remember the last system state
(enabled or disabled) from the last ignition cycle when
the ignition is changed to the ON position.The Rear Park Assist can be active only when the shift
lever is in REVERSE. If the Rear Park Assist is enabled at
this shift lever position, the system will be active until the
vehicle speed is increased to approximately 11 mph
(18 km/h) or above. The system will be active again if the
vehicle speed is decreased to speeds less than approxi-
mately 10 mph (16 km/h).
Rear Park Assist Sensors
The four Rear Park Assist Sensors, located in the rear
fascia, monitor the area behind the vehicle that is within
the sensors’ field of view.
The sensors can detect obstacles from approximately 12
to 59 in (30 to 150 cm) from the rear fascia in the
horizontal direction, depending on the location and
orientation of the obstacle and the type of obstacle.

Rear Park Assist Warning Display
The Rear Park Assist Warning Display, located in the
headliner near the flipper glass, provides both visible and
audible warnings to indicate the distance between the
rear fascia and the detected obstacle.When the ignition is turned to the ON position, the
warning display will turn ON all of its LEDs for about
one second. Each side of the warning display has six
yellow and two red LEDs. The vehicle is close to the
obstacle when the red LED is ON.
The system dimly illuminates the two outer most yellow
LEDs when it is ON and detecting no obstacles. The
following chart shows the warning display operation
when the system is detecting an obstacle:

When the switch is pressed to disable the system, the
instrument cluster will display the “PARK ASSIST DIS-
ABLED” message. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)” in Section 4 of this manual. When the
shift lever is changed to REVERSE and the system is
disabled, the instrument cluster will actuate a single
chime, once per ignition cycle, and it will display the
message.
The Rear Park Assist Switch LED will be ON when the
Rear Park Assist is disabled or defective. The Rear Park
Assist Switch LED will be OFF when the system is
enabled.
Service The Rear Park Assist
When the Rear Park Assist is defective, the instrument
cluster will actuate a single chime, once per ignition
cycle, and it will display the “SERVICE PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM” message. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC)” in Section 4 of this manual. If“SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM” appears in the EVIC
after making sure the rear fascia/bumper is clean and
free of snow, ice, mud, or other debris, see your autho-
rized dealer.
Cleaning The Rear Park Assist
Clean the Rear Park Assist Sensors with water, car wash
soap and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or hard cloths. Do
not scratch or poke the sensors. Otherwise, you could
damage the sensors.
System Usage Precautions
NOTE:
•Ensure that the rear bumper is free of dirt and debris
to keep the Rear Park Assist System operating prop-
erly.
•Jackhammers, large trucks, and other vibrations could
affect the performance of the Rear Park Assist System.

•When you turn off the Rear Park Assist System, the
instrument cluster will display “PARK ASSIST DIS-
ABLED.” Furthermore, once you turn off the Rear
Park Assist System, it remains off until you turn it on
again, even if you cycle the ignition key.
•When you move the shift lever to the REVERSE
position and the Rear Park Assist System is turned off,
the instrument cluster will display “PARK ASSIST
DISABLED” message for as long as the vehicle is in
REVERSE.
•The Rear Park Assist System, when on, will MUTE the
radio when it is sounding a tone.
•If a Rear Park Assist System malfunction occurs, a
single chime will sound once per ignition cycle. In
addition, the Electronic Vehicle Information Center(EVIC) will display “SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYS-
TEM”. If this occurs making sure the rear fascia/
bumper is free from snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris,
see your authorized dealer.
•Clean the Rear Park Assist 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 system might not detect an
obstacle behind the fascia/bumper, or it could provide
a false indication that an obstacle is behind the fascia/
bumper.
•Objects must not be within 12 in (30 cm) from the rear
fascia/bumper while driving the vehicle. Failure to do
so can result in the system misinterpreting a close
object as a sensor problem, causing the “SERVICE
PARK ASSIST SYSTEM” message to be displayed in
the instrument cluster.

Programming HomeLink
Before You Begin
If you have not trained any of the HomeLinkbuttons,
erase all channels before you begin training.
To do this, press and hold the two outside buttons for up
to 20 seconds. The EVIC will display “CLEARING
CHANNELS.” Release the buttons when the EVIC mes-
sage states “CHANNELS CLEARED.”
It is recommended that a new battery be placed in the
hand-held transmitter of the device being programmed
to HomeLink for more efficient training and accurate
transmission of the radio-frequency signal.
Your vehicle should be parked outside of the garage
while training.
1. Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position. 2. Place the hand-held transmitter 1 to 3 in (3 to 8 cm)
from the HomeLink
buttons while keeping the EVIC
display in view.
For optimal training, point the battery end of the hand-
held transmitter away from the HomeLink.
3. Simultaneously, press and hold both the chosen
HomeLink button and the hand-held transmitter button
until the EVIC display changes from “CHANNEL #
TRAINING” to “CHANNEL # TRAINED.”
Then release both the HomeLink and hand-held trans-
mitter buttons.
If the EVIC display states “DID NOT TRAIN” repeat
Step 3. If the signal is too weak, replace the battery in the
original hand-held transmitter.
It may take up to 30 seconds, or longer in rare cases. The
garage door may open and close while you train.
