BLIND SPOT
MONITORING (for
versions/markets, where
provided)
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
system uses two radar-based sensors,
located inside the rear bumper fascia,
to detect highway licensable vehicles
(automobiles, trucks, motorcycles,
etc.) that enter the blind spot zones
from the rear/front/side of the ve-
hicle.
When the vehicle is started, the BSM
warning light will momentarily illu-
minate in both outside rear view mir-
rors to let the driver know that the
system is operational. The BSM sys-
tem sensors operate when the vehicleis in any forward gear or REVERSE
and enters stand by mode when the
vehicle is in PARK.
The BSM detection zone covers ap-
proximately one lane on both sides of
the vehicle 3.35 m. The zone starts at
the outside rear view mirror and ex-
tends approximately 6 m to the rear of
the vehicle. The BSM system monitors
the detection zones on both sides of
the vehicle when the vehicle speed
reaches approximately 10 km/h or
higher and will alert the driver of ve-
hicles in these areas.
NOTE:
 The BSM system does NOT alert
the driver about rapidly ap- proaching vehicles that are out-
side the detection zones.
 The BSM system detection zone DOES NOT change if your ve-
hicle is towing a trailer. There-
fore, visually verify the adjacent
lane is clear for both your ve-
hicle 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 re-
sult in the BSM warning light
remaining illuminated the en-
tire time the vehicle is in a for-
ward gear.
The area on the rear fascia where the
radar sensors are located must remain
free of snow, ice, and dirt/road con-
tamination so that the BSM system
can function properly. Do not block
the area of the rear fascia where the
radar sensors are located with foreign
objects (bumper stickers, bicycle
racks, etc.).

VOICE COMMAND
Uconnect Touch™ 8.4/8.4
Nav The Uconnect™ Voice
Command system allows
you to control your AM, FM
radio, satellite radio, disc
player, SD Card or USB/iPod. NOTE:
Take care to speak into the Voice
Command system as calmly and
normally as possible. The ability
of the Voice Command system to
recognize user voice commands
may be negatively affected by
rapid speaking or a raised voice
level.
WARNING!
Any voice commanded system
should be used only in safe driving
conditions following local laws. All
attention should be kept on the
roadway ahead. Failure to do so may
result in a collision cau sing serious
injury or death.
When you press the Uconnect™ Voice
Command
button, you will hear
a beep. The beep is your signal to give
a command.
If no command is spoken the system
will say one of two responses:
 I didn't understand
 I didn't get that, etc., If a command is not spoken a second
time, the system will respond with an
error and give some direction as what
can be said based on the context you
are in. After three consecutive failures
of a spoken command the VR session
with end.
Pressing the Uconnect™ Voice Com-
mand
button while the system
is speaking is known as “barging in.”
The system will be interrupted, and
after the beep, you can say a com-
mand. This will become helpful once
you start to learn the options.
NOTE:
At any time, you can say the words
“Cancel” or “Help”.
These commands are universal and
can be used from any menu. All other
commands can be used depending
upon the active application.
When using this system, you should
speak clearly and at a normal speak-
ing volume.
The system will best recognize your
speech if the windows are closed, and
the heater/air conditioning fan is set
to low.

Natural Speech
Natural speech allows the user to
speak commands in phrases or com-
plete sentences. The system filters out
certain non-word utterances and
sounds such as “ah” and “eh”. The
system handles fill-in words such as “I
would like to”.
The system handles multiple inputs in
the same phrase or sentence such as
“make a phone call” and “to Kelly
Smith”. For multiple inputs in the
same phrase or sentence, the system
identifies the topic or context and pro-
vides the associated follow-up prompt
such as “Who do you want to call?” in the case where a phone call was re-
quested but the specific name was not
recognized.
The system utilizes continuous dialog;
when the system requires more infor-
mation from the user it will ask a
question to which the user can re-
spond without pressing the
Uconnect™ Voice Command
button.

SETTING THE
FOLLOWING DISTANCE IN
ACC
The specified following distance for
ACC can be set by varying the dis-
tance setting between 3 (long), 2 (me-
dium), and 1 (short). Using this dis-
tance setting and the vehicle speed,
ACC calculates and sets the distance
to the vehicle ahead. This distance
setting displays in the EVIC.To change the distance setting, press
the Distance button and release. Each
time the button is pressed, the dis-
tance setting adjusts between 3
(long), 2 (medium), and 1 (short).
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 EVIC displays the “Sensed
Vehicle Indicator” icon, and the sys-
tem adjusts vehicle speed automati-
cally 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 vehicle ahead slows to a speed
below 24 km/h and the system au-
tomatically disengages itself.
 The distance setting is changed.
 The system disengages. (Refer to the information on ACC Activa-
tion).
The maximum braking applied by
ACC is limited; however, the driver
can always apply the brakes manu-
ally, 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 maxi-
mum braking level is not sufficient to
maintain the set distance. If this oc-
curs, a visual alert “BRAKE” will
flash in the EVIC and a chime will
sound while ACC continues to apply
its maximum braking capacity. When
this occurs, you should immediately
apply the brakes as needed to main-
tain a safe distance from the vehicle
ahead.
