located in the outboard side of the front seats. The SABs are marked with a SRS
AIRBAG or AIRBAG label sewn into the outboard side of the seats.
•ThisvehicleisequippedwithSupplementalSideAirBagInflatableCurtains(SABICs)
located above the side windows. The trim covering the SABICs is labeled SRS AIRBAG
or AIRBAG. The SABICs may help reduce the risk of partial or complete ejection of
vehicle occupants through side windows in certain side impact events.

determines whether the deployment of the Side Air Bags in a particular side impact or
rollover event is appropriate, based on the severity and type of collision. Vehicle damage
by itself is not a good indicator of whether or not Side Air Bags should have deployed.

High Beam Operation
Push the lever forward to activate the high beams. Pull the lever toward you for flash to
pass.
NOTE:
For safe driving, turn off the high beams when oncoming traffic is present to prevent
headlight glare and as a courtesy to other motorists.
HEADLIGHT SWITCH

•Rotate the headlight switch, located on
the instrument panel to the left of the
steering wheel, to the first detent from the

Automatic High Beams
The Automatic High Beams system provides increased forward lighting at night by
automating high beam control through the use of a digital camera mounted on the inside
rearview mirror. This camera detects vehicle specific light and automatically switches
from high beams to low beams until the approaching vehicle is out of view. This feature is
programmable through the Uconnect®system. Refer to “Uconnect®Settings” in “Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel” in the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

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
acollisionbycontrollingthevehicleviabrakingandsteering.Failuretofollowthis
warning could lead to serious injury or death.
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 Driver
Information Display (DID) only when (Sound and Display is selected from the Uconnect®
System). As the vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the (DID) will show fewer arcs and
the sound tone will change from slow, to fast, to continuous.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
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 undesirable 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 shift lever is in the DRIVE (D) position, the transmission will operate automatically,
shifting between the eight available gears. To activate AutoStick, move the shift lever into the
MANUAL (M) position (beside the DRIVE position). The current transmission gear will be
displayed in the instrument cluster, along with a highlighted "M" (Manual) indication. When
the shift lever is in the MANUAL (M) position, tap the shift lever forward (-) (or tap the (-) shift
paddle on the steering wheel, if equipped) to downshift the transmission to the next lower
gear, or tap the lever rearward (+) (or tap the (+) shift paddle, if equipped) to command an
upshift.

mode will downshift the transmission to the next lower gear, while using (+) to enter
AutoStick mode will retain the current gear. The current gear will be displayed in the
instrument cluster, but the "M" will not be highlighted. The transmission will revert back
to normal operation (if the shift lever remains in DRIVE) after a period of time, depending
on accelerator pedal activity.
In AutoStick mode, the transmission will shift up or down when (+/-) is manually selected
by the driver (using the shift lever, or the shift paddles [if equipped]), 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.
•IntemporaryAutoStickmode(shiftleverinDRIVE),thetransmissionwillautomatically

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.
•IfnormalAutoStickmodeisengaged(shiftleverinMANUALposition),manualgear
selection will be maintained until the shift lever is returned to DRIVE, or as described
below. The transmission will not upshift automatically at redline in this mode, nor will
downshifts be obtained if the accelerator pedal is pressed to the floor.

BLIND SPOT MONITORING
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system uses two radar-based sensors, located inside the
rear bumper fascia, to detect Highway licensable vehicles (automobiles, trucks, motor-
cycles etc.) that enter the blind spot zones from the rear/front/side of the vehicle.
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system warning light, located in the outside mirrors, will
illuminate if a vehicle moves into a blind spot zone.
The BSM system can also be configured to sound an audible (chime) alert and mute the
radio to notify you of objects that have entered the detection zones.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
