WARNING!(Continued)
• Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not intended to avoid acollision on its own. The driver has the responsibility to avoid a
collision by controlling the vehicle via braking and steering. Failure
to follow this warning could lead to serious injury or death.
ELECTRONIC RANGE SELECTION (ERS)
• Electronic Range Select (ERS)allows you to limit the highest
available transmission gear, and
can be activated during any
driving condition. When towing a
trailer or operating the vehicle in
off-road conditions, using ERS
shift control will help you
maximize both performance and
engine braking.
• To switch from DRIVE mode to ERS mode, tap the shift lever to the left (-) once. The instrument cluster will display the current gear and the
transmission will not upshift beyond that gear. Tapping the shift lever to
the left (-) or right (+) will decrease or increase the top available gear. To
disable ERS, simply hold the shift lever to the right (+) until “D” is again
displayed in the instrument cluster.
• Switching between ERS and DRIVE mode can be done at any vehicle speed.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

controlled automatically.
SYNC Temperature Button
• Press the SYNC button once to control driver and passengertemperatures simultaneously. Press the SYNC button a second time to
control the temperatures individually.
Air Recirculation
• Use recirculation for maximum A/C operation.
• For window defogging, press air recirculation button off.
• If the recirculation button is pressed while in the AUTO mode, theindicator light may flash three times to indicate the cabin air is being
controlled automatically.
Heated Mirrors
• The mirrors are heated to melt frost or ice. This feature is activatedwhenever you turn on the rear window defroster.
PARKSENSE® REAR PARK ASSIST
• The four ParkSense® sensors, located in the rear fascia/bumper, monitorthe area behind the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view.
• When an object is detected within two meters behind the rear bumper while the vehicle is in REVERSE, a warning will display in the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) and a chime will sound (when Sound
and Display is selected from the Customer Programmable Features
section of the EVIC). As the vehicle moves closer to the object, the
chime rate will change from slow, to fast, to continuous.
Cleaning the ParkSense® Sensors
• If “CLEAN PARK ASSIST SENSORS” appears in the Electronic VehicleInformation Center (EVIC), clean the ParkSense® 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.
NOTE: When the Instrument Cluster reads either Clean Sensor or Blinded,
please clean off the bumper sensors to see if the condition is corrected.
PARKVIEW® REAR BACK-UP CAMERA
• You can see an on-screen image of the rear of your vehicle whenever the shift lever is put into REVERSE. The ParkView® Rear Back-Up Camera
image will be displayed on the radio display screen, located on the
center stack of the instrument panel.
• If the radio display screen appears foggy, clean the camera lens located on the liftgate.

• Press and release the SELECT
button for access to main menus, sub

• Press the BACK button to scroll back to a previous menu or sub menu.
Compass Calibration
• This compass is self-calibrating, which eliminates the need to set the compass manually. When the vehicle is new, the compass may appear
erratic and the EVIC will display “CAL” until the compass is calibrated.
• You may also calibrate the compass by completing one or more 360 degree turns (in an area free from large metal or metallic objects) until
the “CAL” message displayed in the EVIC turns off. The compass will now
function normally.
ECO

Shifting Procedures
4WD HI To 4WD LOW• With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), the ignition switch in the ON/RUN position or the engine running, shift the
transmission into NEUTRAL, and press the “4WD LOW” button once on
the transfer case switch. The “4WD LOW” indicator light in the
instrument cluster will begin to flash and remain on solid when the shift
is complete.
4WD LOW To 4WD HI • With the vehicle at speeds of 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h), the ignition switch in the ON/RUN position or the engine running, shift the
transmission into NEUTRAL, and press the “4WD LOW” button once on
the transfer case switch. The “4WD LOW” indicator light in the
instrument cluster will flash and turn off when the shift is complete.
NOTE:
• If the shift conditions/interlocks are not met, or a transfer case motor temperature protection exists, a “For 4x4 Low Slow Below 5 MPH or 8 KPH
Put Trans in N Press 4 Low” message will flash on the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC).
• Shifting into or out of 4WD LOW is possible with the vehicle completely stopped; however, d ifficulty may occur due to the mating clutch teeth not
being properly aligned. Several attempts may be required for clutch teeth
alignment and shift completion to occur. The preferred method is with the
vehicle rolling 0 to 3 mph (0 to 5 km/h). If the vehicle is moving faster than
3 mph (5 km/h), the transfer case will not allow the shift.
NEUTRAL Shift Procedure
• Turn the ignition switch to the ON/RUN position, engine off.
• Vehicle stopped, with foot on brake.
• Place the transmission into NEUTRAL.
• Press and hold the NEUTRAL button located near the 4WD mode control knob with a pen or similar object for four seconds. The indicator light will
begin to flash indicating the shift is in progress. The light will stop
blinking (stay on solid) when the NEUTRAL shift is complete. A “4WD
SYSTEM IN NEUTRAL” message will display on the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC).
• Repeat these Steps to shift out of NEUTRAL.
