FORWARD COLLISION WARNING (FCW) WITH MITIGATION
The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system with mitigation provides the driver with
audible warnings, visual warnings within the EVIC, and may apply a brake jerk to warn the
driver when it detects a potential frontal collision. The warnings and limited braking 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 the 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 and may provide a brake jerk warning. 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.
Turning FCW ON Or OFF
NOTE:
The default status of FCW is “On”, this allows the system to warn you of a possible collision
with the vehicle in front of you when you are farther away and it applies limited braking. This
gives you the most reaction time to avoid a possible collision.
The forward collision button is on the switch panel that is located in the center of the
instrument panel.
• To turn the FCW system OFF, press the forward collision button once (LED turns on).
• To turn the FCW system back ON, press the forward collision button again (LED turns off).
Changing FCW Status
The FCW feature has two settings and can be changed within the Uconnect® System
Screen:
•Far
• Near
NOTE:
The FCW and active braking settings can only be changed when the vehicle is in PARK.

PARKSENSE® REAR PARK ASSIST
The four ParkSense® sensors, located in the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind
the vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view.
The sensors can detect obstacles from approximately 12 in (30 cm) up to 79 in (200 cm)
from 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 Uconnect® System
screen). As the vehicle moves closer to the object, the chime rate will change from single
1/2 second tone, to slow, to fast, to continuous.
Cleaning The ParkSense® Sensors
If “CLEAN PARK ASSIST SENSORS” appears in the Electronic Vehicle Information 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/gear
selector 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.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up; even when using the ParkView® Rear Back-Up
Camera. Always check carefully behind your vehicle, and be sure to check for pedestri-
ans, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, or blind spots before backing up. You must
continue to pay attention while backing up. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or
death.

POWER OUTLET
The front power outlet is located in the front center storage bin of the instrument panel.
There are two power outlets located in the center console.
The rear power outlet is located in the right
rear cargo area.
The power outlets are labeled with either a
“key” or a “battery” symbol to indicate how
the outlet is powered. Power outlets labeled
with a “key” are powered when the ignition
switch is in the ON/RUN or ACC position,
while the outlets labeled with a “battery” are
connected directly to the battery and pow-
ered at all times.

- Electronic Stability Control (ESC) Activation/Malfunction
Indicator Light
The “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” in the instrument cluster will come on
when the ignition switch is turned to the ON/RUN position. It should go out with the engine
running. If the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” comes on continuously with
the engine running, a malfunction has been detected in the ESC system. If this light
remains on after several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been driven several miles
(kilometers) at speeds greater than 30 mph (48 km/h), see your authorized dealer as soon
as possible to have the problem diagnosed and corrected.
NOTE:
• The “ESC Off Indicator Light” and the “ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light” come
on momentarily each time the ignition switch is turned to ON/RUN.
• Each time the ignition is turned to ON/RUN, the ESC system will be ON, even if it was turned off previously.
• The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking sounds when it is active. This is normal; the sounds will stop when ESC becomes inactive following the maneuver that caused the
ESC activation.
• To improve the vehicle's traction when starting off in deep snow, sand or gravel, it may be desirable to switch the ESC system to Partial Off mode by momentarily pressing the ESC
Off
switch located below the climate controls, on the switch panel.
- Charging System Light
This light shows the status of the electrical charging system. If the charging system light
remains on, it means that the vehicle is experiencing a problem with the charging system.
We recommend you do not continue driving if the charging system light is on. Have the
vehicle serviced immediately.
- Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light indicates low engine oil pressure. If the light turns on while driving, stop the
vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A chime will sound for four minutes
when this light turns on.
We recommend you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the
vehicle serviced immediately.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
134

MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE — GASOLINE ENGINE
Your vehicle is equipped with an automatic oil change indicator system. The oil change indicator
system will remind you that it is time to take your vehicle in for scheduled maintenance.
Based on engine operation conditions, the oil change indicator message will illuminate. This
means that service is required for your vehicle. Operating conditions such as frequent short-
trips, trailer tow, extremely hot or cold ambient temperatures, and E85 fuel usage will influence
when the “Oil Change Required” message is displayed. Severe Operating Conditions can cause
the change oil message to illuminate as early as 3,500 miles (5,600 km) since last reset. Have
your vehicle serviced as soon as possible, within the next 500 miles (805 km).
Your authorized dealer will reset the oil change indicator message after completing the
scheduled oil change. If a scheduled oil change is performed by someone other than your
authorized dealer, the message can be reset by referring to the steps described under “Instru-
ment Cluster Warning Lights” in “What To Do In Emergencies” in this guide or “Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in your Owners
Manual on the DVD for further information.
NOTE:
Under no circumstances should oil change intervals exceed 10,000 miles (16,000 km) or
twelve months, whichever comes first.
Severe Duty All Models
Change Engine Oil at 4000 miles (6,500 km) if the vehicle is operated in a dusty and off road
environment. This type of vehicle use is considered Severe Duty.
Once A Month Or Before A Long Trip:
• Check engine oil level
• Check windshield washer fluid level
• Check the tire inflation pressures and look for unusual wear or damage
• Check the fluid levels of the coolant reservoir, brake master cylinder, power steering andtransmission as needed
• Check function of all interior and exterior lights
Required Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Schedules on the following pages for required maintenance.
At Every Oil Change Interval As Indicated By Oil Change Indicator System:
