ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC)
If your vehicle is equipped with Adaptive
Cruise Control the controls operate exactly the
same as the electronic speed control with only a
couple of differences. With this option you can
set a specified distance you would like to main-
tain between you and the vehicle in front of
you.
If the ACC sensor detects a vehicle ahead,
ACC will apply limited braking or acceleration
automatically to maintain a preset following
distance, while matching the speed of the ve-
hicle ahead.
If the sensor does not detect a vehicle ahead of
you, ACC will maintain a fixed set speed.

NOTE:
•WhenyouoverrideandpushtheSET+button or SET-buttons, the new Set Speed will be the
current speed of the vehicle.
•WhenyouusetheSET-button to decelerate, if the engine’s braking power does not slow the
vehicle sufficiently to reach the set speed, the brake system will automatically slow the vehicle.

ACC host vehicle follows a target vehicle to a standstill, after two seconds the driver will either
have to push the RES (resume) button, or apply the accelerator pedal to reengage the ACC
to the existing Set Speed.

speed change on moderate hills is normal. In addition, downshifting may occur while climbing
uphill or descending downhill. This is normal operation and necessary to maintain set speed.
When driving up hill and down hill, the ACC system will cancel if the braking temperature
exceeds normal range (overheated).

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.

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 pedestrians,
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.

Sport Mode — If Equipped
Yo u r v e h i c l e i s e q u i p p e d w i t h a S p o r t M o d e
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.
