2015 CHRYSLER 200 U connect

Far
The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting.
The far setting provides warnings for potential collisions more distant in front of the vehicle,
allowing the driver to have the most reaction time to avoid a collision.
This setting is designed to provide early warnings per NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration) recommendations.
More cautious drivers that do not mind frequent warnings may prefer this setting.
NOTE:
This setting gives you the most reaction time.
Near
Changing the FCW status to the “Near” setting, allows the system to warn you of a potential
frontal collision when you are much closer.
This setting provides less reaction time than the “Far” setting, which allows for a more dynamic
driving experience.
More dynamic or aggressive drivers that want to avoid frequent warnings may prefer this setting.
Off
Changing the FCW status to “Off ” prevents the system from warning you of a possible collision
with the vehicle in front of you.
Turning Active Braking ON Or OFF
The Active Braking feature has two settings and can be changed within the Uconnect® System
Screen:
•On
•Off
Changing the Active Braking status to “Off ” prevents the system from providing limited
autonomous braking, or additional brake support if the driver is not braking adequately in the
event of a potential frontal collision.
NOTE:
If FCW is set to “Off ”, “FCW OFF” will be displayed in the EVIC/DID.
Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
WARNING!
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not intended to avoid a collision on its own, nor can
FCW detect every type of potential collision. 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.

PARKSENSE®
ParkSense® Front And Rear Park Assist
ParkSense® can be enabled and disabled by pressing the ParkSense® switch located on the switch
panel below the Uconnect® display.
The six 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 approxi-
mately 12 in (30 cm) up to 79 in (200 cm) from
the rear fascia/bumper in the horizontal direc-
tion, depending on the location, type and ori-
entation of the obstacle.
The six ParkSense® sensors, located in the front
fascia/bumper, monitor the area in front of the
vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view.
The sensors can detect obstacles from approxi-
mately 12 in (30 cm) up to 47 in (120 cm) from
the front fascia/bumper in the horizontal direc-
tion, depending on the location, type and ori-
entation of the obstacle.
When an object is detected within 2 meters behind the rear bumper while the vehicle is in
REVERSE, a warning will display in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) or Driver
Information Display (DID). In addition a chime will sound (when Sound and Display is selected
from the Customer Programmable Features screen of the Uconnect® System). As the vehicle
moves closer to the object, the chime rate will change from single 1/2 second tone (for rear only),
to slow (for rear only), to fast, to continuous.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

ParkSense® Active Park Assist
The ParkSense® Active Park Assist system can be enabled and disabled with the ParkSense®
Active Park Assist switch, located on the switch panel below the Uconnect® display.
The ParkSense® Active Park Assist system is
intended to assist the driver during parallel and
perpendicular parking maneuvers by identify-
ing a proper parking space, providing audible/
visual instructions, and controlling the steering
wheel. The ParkSense® Active Park Assist sys-
tem is defined as “semi-automatic” since the
driver maintains control of the accelerator, shift
lever and brakes. Depending on the driver’s
parking maneuver selection, the ParkSense®
Active Park Assist system is capable of maneu-
vering a vehicle into a parallel or a perpendicu-
lar parking space on either side (i.e., driver side
or passenger side).
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for
further details.
CAUTION!
•ParkSense® is only a parking aid and it is unable to recognize every obstacle, including small
obstacles. Parking curbs might be temporarily detected or not detected at all. Obstacles
located above or below the sensors will not be detected when they are in close proximity.
• The vehicle must be driven slowly when using ParkSense® in order to be able to stop intime when an obstacle is detected. It is recommended that the driver looks over his/her
shoulder when using ParkSense®.
WARNING!
• Drivers must be careful when backing up even when using ParkSense®. Always checkcarefully behind your vehicle, look behind you, and be sure to check for pedestrians,
animals, other vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots before backing up. You are respon-
sible for safety and must continue to pay attention to your surroundings. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.
•
Before using ParkSense®, it is strongly recommended that the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly is disconnected from the vehicle when the vehicle is not used for towing. Failure to do
so can result in injury or damage to vehicles or obstacles because the hitch ball will be much
closer to the obstacle than the rear fascia when the loudspeaker sounds the continuous tone.
Also, the sensors could detect the ball mount and hitch ball assembly, depending on its size and
shape, giving a false indication that an obstacle is behind the vehicle.

LANESENSE
The LaneSense system can be enabled and disabled with the LaneSense button, located on the
switch panel below the Uconnect® display.
• Press the LaneSense button to turn the sys-tem ON (LED turns off ).
The LaneSense system is operational at speeds
above 37 mph (60 km/h) and below 112 mph
(180 km/h). The LaneSense system uses a for-
ward looking camera to detect lane markings
and measure vehicle position within the lane
boundaries.
When both lane markings are detected and the
driver unintentionally drifts out of the lane (no
turn signal applied), the LaneSense system
provides a haptic warning in the form of torque
applied to the steering wheel to prompt the
driver to remain within the lane boundaries. If
the driver continues to unintentionally drift out
of the lane, the LaneSense system provides a visual warning through the Electronic Vehicle
Information Center (EVIC) or Driver Information Display (DID) to prompt the driver to remain
within the lane boundaries.
The driver may manually override the haptic warning by applying torque into the steering wheel
at any time.
When only a single lane marking is detected and the driver unintentionally drifts across the lane
marking (no turn signal applied), the LaneSense system provides a visual warning through the
Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) or Driver Information Display (DID) to prompt
the driver to remain within the lane. When only a single lane marking is detected, a haptic
(torque) warning will not be provided.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
NOTE:
When operating conditions have been met, the LaneSense system will monitor if the driver’s
hands are on the steering wheel and provides an audible warning to the driver when the driver’s
hands are not detected on the steering wheel. The system will cancel if the driver does not return
their hands to the wheel.
