fully available. Once the condition that limited the sys-
tem performance is no longer present, the system will
return to its full performance state. If the problem per-
sists, see your authorized dealer.
Service FCW Warning
If the system turns off, and the DID displays:
•ACC/FCW Unavailable Service Required
•Cruise/FCW Unavailable Service Required
This indicates there is an internal system fault. Although
the vehicle is still drivable under normal conditions, have
the system checked by an authorized dealer.
LANESENSE — IF EQUIPPED
LaneSense Operation
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 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 warn-
ing 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 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 DID to prompt the driver to
210 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

remain within the lane. When only a single lane marking
is detected, a haptic (torque) warning will not be pro-
vided.
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.
Turning LaneSense ON Or OFF
The default status of LaneSense is “OFF”.
The LaneSense button is located on the center stack
below the Uconnect® display.
To turn the LaneSense system ON, push the LaneSense
button to turn the system ON (LED turns off). A “Lane
Sense On” message is shown in the DID.
To turn the LaneSense system OFF, push the LaneSense
button once to turn the system OFF (LED turns on).

Left Lane Departure — Both Lanes Detected
•When the LaneSense system is ON, the lane lines turn
from gray to white to indicate that both of the lane
markings have been detected. The LaneSense indicator
is solid green when both lane markings have been
detected and the system is “armed” to provide visual
warnings in the DID and a torque warning in the
steering wheel if an unintentional lane departure oc-
curs.
Lanes Sensed (White Lines/Green Indicator)
214 UNDERSTANDING THE FEATURES OF YOUR VEHICLE

•When the LaneSense system senses a lane drift situa-
tion, the left thick lane line and left thin line turn solid
yellow. The LaneSense indicator changes from solid
green to solid yellow. At this time torque is applied to
the steering wheel in the opposite direction of the lane
boundary.
•For example: If approaching the left side of the lane
the steering wheel will turn to the right.

•When the LaneSense system senses the lane has been
approached and is in a lane departure situation, the
left thick lane line flashes yellow (on/off) and the left
thin line remains solid yellow. The LaneSense indicator
changes from solid yellow to flashing yellow. At this
time torque is applied to the steering wheel in the
opposite direction of the lane boundary.
•For example: If approaching the left side of the lane
the steering wheel will turn to the right.
NOTE:The LaneSense system operates with the similar
behavior for a right lane departure.

(60 km/h) and below 112 mph (180 km/h).
•Use of the turn signal suppresses the warnings.
•The system will not apply torque to the steering wheel

(MSA) Speed Warning telltale will display in the DID,
and a chime will sound with a pop up warning message
when the set speed is exceeded.
•Transmission Temperature Warning Light
This light indicates that there is excessive trans-
mission fluid temperature that might occur
with severe usage such as trailer towing. It may
also occur when operating the vehicle in a high torque
converter slip condition. If this light comes on, stop the
vehicle and run the engine at idle or faster with the
transmission in NEUTRAL until the light goes off.
CAUTION!
Continuous driving with the Transmission Tempera-
ture Warning Light illuminated will eventually cause
severe transmission damage or transmission failure.
WARNING!
If you continue operating the vehicle when the
Transmission Temperature Warning Light is illumi-
nated you could cause the fluid to boil over, come in
contact with hot engine or exhaust components and
cause a fire.
