ACC Operation At Stop
If the ACC system brings your vehicle to a standstill while following a target vehicle, if the target
vehicle starts moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, your vehicle will
resume motion without the need for any driver action.
If the target vehicle does not start moving within two seconds of your vehicle coming to a
standstill, the driver will either have to press the RES (resume) button, or apply the accelerator
pedal to reengage the ACC to the existing Set Speed.
NOTE:
After the ACC system holds your vehicle at a standstill for approximately three consecutive
minutes, the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will be cancelled.
While the ACC system is holding your vehicle at a standstill, if the driver seatbelt is unbuckled or
the driver door is opened, the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC system will be
cancelled.
Changing Modes (ACC Only)
If desired, the Adaptive Cruise Control mode can be turned off and the system can be operated
as a normal (Fixed Speed) Speed Control mode. When in the normal (Fixed Speed) Speed
Control mode the distance setting feature will be disabled and the system will maintain the speed
you set.
• To change between the different cruise control modes, press the ADAPTIVE CRUISECONTROL (ACC) ON/OFF button which turns the ACC and the normal (Fixed Speed)
Speed Control OFF.
• Pressing the normal (Fixed Speed) SPEED CONTROL ON/OFF button will result in turning ON (changing to) the normal (Fixed Speed) Speed Control mode.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.

WARNING!
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) is a convenience system. It is not a substitute for active
driving involvement. It is always the driver’s responsibility to be attentive of road, traffic, and
weather conditions, vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle ahead; and, most importantly, brake
operation to ensure safe operation of the vehicle under all road conditions. Your complete
attention is always required while driving to maintain safe control of your vehicle. Failure to
follow these warnings can result in a collision and death or serious personal injury.
The ACC system:
• Does not react to pedestrians, oncoming vehicles, and stationary objects (e.g., a stopped
vehicle in a traffic jam or a disabled vehicle).
• Cannot take street, traffic, and weather conditions into account, and may be limited upon
adverse sight distance conditions.
• Does not always fully recognize complex driving conditions, which can result in wrong or
missing distance warnings.
• Will bring the vehicle to a complete stop while following a target vehicle and hold the
vehicle for 2 seconds in the stop position. If the target vehicle does not start moving within
two seconds the ACC system will display a message that the system will release the brakes
and that the brakes must be applied manually. An audible chime will sound when the
brakes are released.
You should switch off the ACC system:
• When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy snow, sleet, heavy traffic, and complex driving
situations (i.e., in highway construction zones).
• When entering a turn lane or highway off ramp; when driving on roads that are winding, icy,
snow-covered, slippery, or have steep uphill or downhill slopes.
• When towing a trailer up or down steep slopes.
• When circumstances do not allow safe driving at a constant speed.
The Cruise Control system has two control modes:
• Adaptive Cruise Control mode for maintaining an appropriate distance between vehicles.
• Normal (fixed speed) electronic speed control mode for cruising at a constant preset
speed. For additional information, refer to “Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode”
in this section.
Normal (fixed speed) electronic speed control will not react to preceding vehicles. Always be
aware of the mode selected.
You can change the mode by using the Cruise Control buttons. The two control modes
function differently. Always confirm which mode is selected.

PADDLE SHIFT MODE
• When the transmission is in DRIVE orSPORT mode, it will operate automatically,
shifting between the nine available gears.
• To activate Paddle Shift mode, simply tap one of the steering wheel-mounted shift
paddles (+/-) while in DRIVE or SPORT
mode. Tapping (-) to enter Paddle Shift
mode will downshift the transmission to the
next lower gear, while using (+) to enter
Paddle Shift mode will retain the current
gear. When Paddle Shift is active, the cur-
rent transmission gear is displayed in the
instrument cluster.
• In Paddle Shift mode, the transmission will shift up or down when (+/-) is manually se-
lected by the driver, unless an engine lug-
ging or overspeed condition would result. It
will remain in the selected gear until another
upshift or downshift is chosen, except as
explained below.
• If Paddle Shift is engaged while in DRIVE mode, the transmission will automatically shift up when maximum engine speed is reached. Lack of accelerator pedal activity will cause the
transmission to revert to automatic operation.
• If Paddle Shift is engaged while in SPORT mode, the transmission will remain in the selected gear even when maximum engine speed is reached (except the transmission will upshift
automatically from 1st to 2nd gear at wide open throttle, if necessary). Otherwise, the
transmission will upshift only when commanded by the driver.
• In either DRIVE or SPORT mode, the transmission will automatically downshift as the vehicle slows to a stop (to prevent engine lugging) and will display the current gear. Tapping the (+)
paddle (at a stop) will allow starting in second gear. After a stop, the driver should manually
upshift (+) the transmission as the vehicle accelerates.
• Holding the (-) paddle depressed will downshift the transmission to the lowest gear possible at the current speed.
To disengage Paddle Shift mode, press and hold the (+) shift paddle until “D” or “S” is once again
indicated in the instrument cluster. You can shift in or out of Paddle Shift mode at any time
without taking your foot off the accelerator pedal.
WARNING!
Do not downshift for additional engine braking on a slippery surface. The drive wheels could
lose their grip and the vehicle could skid, causing a collision or personal injury.

STOP/START SYSTEM — 2.4L ENGINE
The Stop/Start function is developed to save fuel and reduce emissions. The system will stop the
engine automatically during a vehicle stop if the required conditions are met. Releasing the brake
pedal or pressing the accelerator pedal on an automatic transmission will start the engine.
Automatic Mode
The Stop/Start feature is enabled after every normal customer engine start. It will remain in
STOP/START NOT READY until you drive forward with a vehicle speed greater than 5 mph
(8 km/h). At that time, the system will go into STOP/START READY and if all other conditions
are met, can go into a STOP/START AUTOSTOP ACTIVE “Autostop” mode.
To Activate The Autostop Mode, The Following Must Occur:
• The system must be in STOP/START READY state. A STOP/START READY message willbe displayed in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) or Driver Information
Display (DID) within the Stop/Start section. Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC)” or “Driver Information Display (DID)” in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in
your owners manual on the DVD for further information.
• The vehicle must be completely stopped.
• The shifter must be in DRIVE or NEUTRAL and the brake pedal depressed.
The engine will shut down, the tachometer will move to the zero position and the Stop/Start
telltale will illuminate indicating you are in Autostop. While in Autostop, the Climate Controls
system may automatically adjust airflow to maintain cabin comfort. Customer settings will be
maintained upon return to an engine running condition.
Refer to the “Stop/Start System” in the “Starting and Operating” section located in your owners
manual on the DVD for further information.
To Manually Turn Off The Stop/Start System
1. Press the STOP/START Off switch (located on the switch bank). The light on the switch will illuminate.
2. The “STOP/START OFF” message will ap- pear in Electronic Vehicle Information Cen-
ter (EVIC) or Driver Information Display
(DID). Refer to “Electronic Vehicle Infor-
mation Center (EVIC)” or “Driver Informa-
tion Display (DID)” in “Understanding Your
Instrument Panel” your owners manual on
the DVD for further information.
3. At the next vehicle stop (after turning off the STOP/START system) the engine will
not be stopped.
4. The STOP/START system will reset itself back to an ON condition every time the key is turned off and back on.
