Turning FCW ON Or OFF
The forward collision button is located on the switch panel below the Uconnect® display.
•ToturntheFCWsystemOFF,pushtheforwardcollisionbuttononce(LEDturnson).
•ToturntheFCWsystembackON,pushtheforwardcollisionbuttonagain(LEDturnsoff).
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.
Changing the FCW status to “Off ” prevents the system from warning you of a possible collision
with the vehicle in front of you. If FCW is set to “Off ”, “FCW OFF” will be displayed in the Driver
Information Display (DID).
Changing FCW Status
The FCW feature has two settings and can be changed within the Uconnect® System Screen:
•Far
• Near
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.
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.
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.

LANESENSE
The LaneSense system can be enabled and disabled with the LaneSense button, located on the
switch panel below the Uconnect® display.
• Push the LaneSense buttonto turn the system 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 forward looking camera to detect lane markings andmeasure vehicle position within the lane boundaries.
When both lane markings are detected and the driver unintentionally drifts out of the lane (noturn signal applied), the LaneSense system provides a haptic warning in the form of torqueapplied to the steering wheel to prompt the driver to remain within the lane boundaries. If thedriver continues to unintentionally drift out of the lane, the LaneSense system provides a visualwarning through the Driver Information Display (DID) to prompt the driver to remain within thelane boundaries.
The driver may manually override the haptic warning by applying torque into the steering wheelat any time.
When only a single lane marking is detected and the driver unintentionally drifts across the lanemarking (no turn signal applied), the LaneSense system provides a visual warning through theDriver Information Display (DID) to prompt the driver to remain within the lane. When only asingle 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’shands are on the steering wheel and provides an audible warning to the driver when the driver’shands are not detected on the steering wheel. The system will cancel if the driver does not returntheir hands to the wheel.

EIGHT-SPEED AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
The transmission is controlled using a rotary electronic gear selector located on the center
console. The transmission gear range (PRNDL/S) is displayed both above the gear selector and
in the Driver Information Display (DID). To select a gear range, simply rotate the gear selector.
To access the L or S position, push down on the gear selector and then rotate it. You must also
press the brake pedal to shift the transmission out of PARK, or to shift from NEUTRAL into
DRIVE or REVERSE when the vehicle is stopped or moving at low speeds (refer to “Brake/
Tr a n s m i s s i o n S h i f t I n t e r l o c k S y s t e m ” o n t h e D V D f o r f u r t h e r i n f o r m a t i o n ) . To s h i f t p a s t m u l t i p l e
gear ranges at once (such as PARK to DRIVE), simply rotate the gear selector to the appropriate
detent. Select the DRIVE range for normal driving.
The electronically-controlled transmission provides a precise shift schedule. The transmission
electronics are self-calibrating; therefore, the first few shifts on a new vehicle may be somewhat
abrupt. This is a normal condition, and precision shifts will develop within a few hundred miles
(kilometers).
Only shift from DRIVE to PARK or REVERSE when the accelerator pedal is released and the
vehicle is stopped. Be sure to keep your foot on the brake pedal when shifting between these
gears.
Standard Shifter
The standard transmission gear selector has PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE, and LOW
shift positions. Using the LOW position manually downshifts the transmission to a lower gear
based on vehicle speed.
Premium Shifter With AutoStick
The premium transmission gear selector pro-
vides PARK, REVERSE, NEUTRAL, DRIVE,
and SPORT shift positions. Manual shifts can
be made using the AutoStick shift control (shift
paddles mounted on the steering wheel).
Pressing the shift paddles (-/+) while in the
DRIVE or SPORT position will manually select
the transmission gear, and will display the cur-
rent gear in the instrument cluster as 1, 2, 3, etc.
Refer to “AutoStick” in this section for further
information.

feature. This mode is a configuration set up for
typical enthusiast driving. The engine, trans-
mission and steering systems are all set to their
SPORT settings. Sport Mode will provide im-
proved throttle response and modified shifting
for an enhanced driving experience, as well the
greatest amount of steering feel. This mode
may be activated and deactivated by pushing
the Sport button on the instrument panel
switch bank.
AUTOSTICK
AutoStick is a driver-interactive transmission feature providing manual shift control, giving you
more control of the vehicle. AutoStick allows you to maximize engine braking, eliminate unde-
sirable upshifts and downshifts, and improve overall vehicle performance. This system can also
provide you with more control during passing, city driving, cold slippery conditions, mountain
driving, trailer towing, and many other situations.
Operation
When the transmission is in DRIVE or SPORT mode, it will operate automatically, shifting
between the eight available gears. To engage AutoStick, simply tap one of the steering wheel-
mounted shift paddles (+/-) while in DRIVE or SPORT mode. In DRIVE mode, this will activate
atemporaryAutoStickmode.Thetransmissionwillrevertbacktonormaloperationafteraperiod
of time, depending on accelerator pedal activity. When the transmission gear selector is in the
SPORT position, tapping either shift paddle will activate "permanent" AutoStick mode. The
transmission will remain in AutoStick mode until the driver deliberately disables AutoStick (as
described below). Tapping (-) to enter AutoStick will downshift the transmission to the next lower
gear, while using (+) to enter AutoStick will retain the current gear. When AutoStick is active, the
current transmission gear is displayed in the instrument cluster.
In AutoStick mode, the transmission will shift up or down when (+/-) is manually selected by the
driver, unless an engine lugging or overspeed condition would result. It will remain in the selected
gear until another upshift or downshift is chosen, except as described below.
• If AutoStick is engaged while in DRIVE mode, the transmission will automatically shift up
when maximum engine speed is reached. If the accelerator is fully depressed, the transmission
will downshift when possible (based on current vehicle speed and gear). Lack of accelerator
pedal activity will cause the transmission to revert to automatic operation.

• If AutoStick is engaged while the transmission gear selector is in the SPORT position, manual
gear selection will be maintained until the gear selector is returned to DRIVE, or as described
below. The transmission will not upshift automatically at redline in this mode, nor will down-
shifts be obtained if the accelerator pedal is pressed to the floor.
•IneitherDRIVEorSPORTmode,thetransmissionwillautomaticallydownshiftasthevehicle

• The transmission will automatically downshift to first gear when coming to a stop. After a stop,
the driver should manually upshift (+) the transmission as the vehicle is accelerated.
• You can start out, from a stop, in first or second gear. Tapping (+) at a stop will allow starting in
second gear. Starting out in second gear can be helpful in snowy or icy conditions.
