TABLE OF CONTENTS

Automatic Lighting — If Equipped
Light Sensor
The light sensor is equipped with an infrared LED, located on the windshield. It
detects changes in light intensity outside the vehicle, based on the sensitivity of light
set by using the Menu on the display or on the Uconnect®system.
The higher the sensitivity, the lesser the amount of external light required for
controlling the lighting.
Automatic Headlights
Turn the headlight switch to the AUTO position.
When the automatic headlights are enabled, the headlight time delay is active. After
the ignition switch is placed in the STOP/OFF position, the headlights will automati-
cally turn off after approximately 90 seconds depending on the settings of the
feature.
The timing of the headlights is adjustable between 0, 30, 60 and 90 seconds.
NOTE:
The engine must be running before the headlights will come on in the automatic
mode.
Daytime Running Lights (DRL) — If Equipped
The Daytime Running Lights (DRLs) will turn on when the engine is started and
remain on unless the headlights are turned on, the electronic parking brake is
applied, or the engine is shut off.
The DRLs will be disabled during turn signal operation and resume operation when
the turn signal operation has ended.
Front Fog Lights — If Equipped
The front fog light switch is built into the headlight switch.
To activate the front fog lights, turn on the parking lights or the low beam headlights
and push the headlight switch. To turn off the front fog lights, push the headlight
switch a second time or turn off the headlight switch.
An indicator light in the instrument cluster illuminates when the fog lights are turned
on.
NOTE:
The fog lights will operate with the low beam headlights or parking lights on.
Selecting the high beam headlights will turn off the fog lights.
Parking Lights
Rotate the headlight switch to the first position to turn on the parking lights. The
parking light indicator in the cluster will illuminate.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE

To apply the park brake manually, pull up on the switch momentarily. The BRAKE
warning lamp in the instrument cluster and an indicator on the switch will illuminate.
To release the park brake manually, the ignition switch must be in RUN. Then put
your foot on the brake pedal and push the park brake switch down momentarily. Once
the park brake is fully disengaged, the BRAKE warning lamp and the switch indicator
will extinguish.
The park brake can also be automatically released. With the engine running and the
transmission in gear, release the brake pedal and depress the throttle pedal. For
safety reasons, your seat belt must also be fastened.
NOTE:
• You may hear a slight whirring sound from the back of the vehicle while the parking
brake engages or disengages.
• If your foot is on the brake pedal while you are engaging or disengaging the parking
brake, you may notice a small amount of brake pedal movement.
• The new Auto Park Brake feature can be used to apply the park brake automati-
cally every time you park the vehicle. Auto Park Brake can be enabled and disabled
in the Settings menu in Uconnect®or in “Safe Hold” conditions.
• The parking brake can be engaged even when the ignition switch is OFF, however,
it can only be disengaged when the ignition switch is in the ON/RUN position.
• Safehold is a new feature that will automatically apply the park brake under
certain conditions. The EPB monitors the status of the driver’s seat belt, driver’s
door and pedal positions to determine if the driver may have exited while the
vehicle is still capable of moving and will then automatically apply the park brake
to prevent the vehicle from rolling.
• The EPB fault lamp will illuminate if the EPB switch is held for longer than 20
seconds in either the released or applied position. The light will extinguish upon
releasing the switch.
• Refer to the Starting and Operating section of your vehicle’s Owner’s Manual on
the DVD for further details.
CAUTION!
If the Brake System Warning Light remains on with the parking brake released, a
brake system malfunction is indicated. Have the brake system serviced by an
authorized dealer immediately.

WARNING!
• Never use the PARK position as a substitute for the parking brake. Always apply
the parking brake fully when parked to guard against vehicle movement and
possible injury or damage.
• When leaving the vehicle, always make sure the keyless ignition node is in the
“STOP/OFF” mode, remove the Key Fob from the vehicle and lock the vehicle.
• Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously or fatally injured. Children should
be warned not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the shift lever.
• Do not leave the Key Fob in or near the vehicle, or in a location accessible to
children, and do not leave a vehicle equipped with Keyless Enter-N-Go™in the
MAR/RUN mode. A child could operate power windows, other controls, or move
the vehicle.
• Be sure the parking brake is fully disengaged before driving; failure to do so can
lead to brake failure and a collision.
• Always fully apply the parking brake when leaving your vehicle, or it may roll
and cause damage or injury. Also be certain to leave the transmission in PARK.
Failure to do so may allow the vehicle to roll and cause damage or injury.
BLIND SPOT MONITORING (BSM)
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system uses two radar-based sensors, located
inside the rear bumper fascia, to detect highway licensable vehicles (automobiles,
trucks, motorcycles, etc.) that enter the blind spot zones from the rear/front/side of
the vehicle.
When the vehicle is started, the BSM warning light will momentarily illuminate in
both outside rear view mirrors to let the driver know that the system is operational.
The BSM system sensors operate when the vehicle is in any forward gear or REVERSE
and enters stand-by mode when the vehicle is in PARK.
The BSM detection zone covers approximately one lane width on both sides of the
vehicle, 10 ft (3 m). The zone length starts at the outside mirror and extends
approximately 20 ft (6 m) beyond the rear bumper of the vehicle. The BSM system
monitors the detection zones on both sides of the vehicle when the vehicle speed
reaches approximately 6 mph (10 km/h) or higher and will alert the driver of vehicles
in these areas.

System Not Available
In the case of the system being temporary unavailable:
• BSM Mirror Warning Lights are turned on continuously.
• A chime will turn on.
• A instrument cluster message will display“Blind Spot Monitoring Temporary
Unavailable.”
In the case of the system being completely unavailable:
• A chime will turn on.
• A instrument cluster message will display“Blind Spot Monitoring Unavailable -
Service Required.”
NOTE:
Vehicle must be taken to the nearest authorized dealer for service.
FORWARD COLLISION WARNING (FCW) WITH
MITIGATION
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) With Mitigation Operation
The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system with mitigation provides the driver with
audible warnings, visual warnings (within the EVIC/DID), and may apply a brake jerk
to warn the driver when it detects a potential frontal collision. The warnings and
limited braking are intended to provide the driver with enough time to react, avoid or
mitigate the potential collision.
NOTE:
FCW monitors the information from the forward looking sensors as well as the
Electronic Brake Controller (EBC), to calculate the probability of a forward colli-
sion. When the system determines that a forward collision is probable, the driver
will be provided with audible and visual warnings and may provide a brake jerk
warning.
If the driver does not take action based upon these progressive warnings, then the
system will provide a limited level of active braking to help slow the vehicle and
mitigate the potential forward collision. If the driver reacts to the warnings by braking
and the system determines that the driver intends to avoid the collision by braking
but has not applied sufficient brake force, the system will compensate and provide
additional brake force as required.
Vehicles With A Manual Transmission: After the end of the intervention of automatic
braking, the engine could stall, unless the driver can depress the clutch pedal.
Vehicles With Automatic Transmission: After the end of the intervention of automatic
braking, the transmission may remain in last gear stored: therefore the car could
lurch forward, once the brakes release a few seconds later.

INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING LIGHTS
- Low Fuel Warning Light
This warning light indicates when the fuel level reaches approximately 2.0 gal (7.8 L).
This light will turn on and a single chime will sound.
-ChargingSystemLight
This light shows the status of the electrical charging system. If the charging system
light remains on, it means that the vehicle is experiencing a problem with the
charging system.
We recommend you do not continue driving if the charging system light is on. Have
the vehicle serviced immediately.
- Oil Pressure Warning Light
This light indicates low engine oil pressure. If the light turns on while driving, stop
the vehicle and shut off the engine as soon as possible. A chime will sound for four
minutes when this light turns on.
We recommend you do not operate the vehicle or engine damage will occur. Have the
vehicle serviced immediately.
- Anti-Lock Brake (ABS) Light
This light monitors the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). The light will turn on when the
ignition switch is turned to the MAR/RUN position and may stay on for as long as four
seconds.
If the ABS light remains on or turns on while driving, it indicates that the Anti-Lock
portion of the brake system is not functioning and that service is required. However,
the conventional brake system will continue to operate normally if the BRAKE
warning light is not on.
WHAT TO DO IN EMERGENCIES
156

If the ABS light is on, the brake system should be serviced as soon as possible to
restore the benefits of Anti-Lock brakes. If the ABS light does not turn on when the
ignition switch is turned to the MAR/RUN position, have the light inspected by an
authorized dealer.
- Air Bag Warning Light
This light will turn on for four to eight seconds as a bulb check when the ignition
switch is first turned to the MAR/RUN position. If the light is either not on during
starting, stays on, or turns on while driving, have the system inspected at an
authorized dealer as soon as possible. Refer to “Occupant Restraints” in “Safety” in
your Owner’s Manual on the DVD for further information.
NOTE:
The Air Bag System is designed to be maintenance free.
- Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) Light
This light informs you of a problem with the Electronic Throttle Control (ETC) system.
If a problem is detected, the light will come on while the engine is running. Cycle the
ignition key when the vehicle has completely stopped and the shift lever/gear selector
is placed in the PARK position; the light should turn off.
If the light remains lit with the engine running, your vehicle will usually be drivable.
However, see an authorized service center immediately. If the light is flashing when
the engine is running, immediate service is required and you may experience reduced
performance, an elevated/rough idle or engine stall and your vehicle may require
towing.
-TirePressureMonitoringSystem(TPMS)Light
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly, when cold
and inflated to the inflation pressure recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on
the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label. (If your vehicle has tires of a
different size than the size indicated on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure
label, you should determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with a Tire Pressure
Monitoring System (TPMS) which display in the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) or Driver Information Display (DID) when one or more of your tires is
significantly under-inflated. Accordingly, when the low tire pressure EVIC or DID
display illuminates, you should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and
inflate them to the proper pressure. Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire
causes the tire to overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping
ability.
