2016 JEEP CHEROKEE display

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.
This setting is designed to provide early warnings per NHTSA (National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration) recommendations.
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.
Off
Changing the FCW status to “Off” prevents the system from warning you of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front of you.
Turning Active Braking ON Or OFF
The Active Braking feature has two settings and can be changed within the Uconnect
System Screen:
•On
• Off
Changing the Active Braking status to “Off” prevents the system from providing
limited autonomous braking, or additional brake support if the driver is not braking
adequately in the event of a potential frontal collision.
NOTE:
If FCW is set to “Off,” “FCW OFF” will be displayed in the EVIC/DID.
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.

STOP/START SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Stop/Start function is developed to reduce fuel consumption. The system will
stop the engine automatically during a vehicle stop if the required conditions are
met. Releasing the brake pedal or pressing the accelerator pedal will automatically
re-start the engine.
Automatic Mode
The Stop/Start feature is enabled after every normal customer engine start. At that
time, the system will go into STOP/START READY and if all other conditions are met,
can go into a STOP/START AUTOSTOP ACTIVE “Autostop” mode.
To Activate The Autostop Mode, The Following Must Occur:
• The system must be in STOP/START READY state. A STOP/START READYmessage will be displayed in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) or
Driver Information Display (DID) within the Stop/Start section. Refer to “Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC)” or “Driver Information Display (DID)” in
“Understanding Your Instrument Panel” in your owner’s manual on the DVD for
further information.
• The vehicle must be completely stopped.
• The shifter must be in a forward gear and the brake pedal depressed.
The engine will shut down, the tachometer will move to the zero position and the
Stop/Start telltale will illuminate indicating you are in Autostop. Customer settings
will be maintained upon return to an engine running condition.
Refer to the “Stop/Start System” in the “Starting And Operating” section located in
your owners manual on the DVD for further information.
To Manually Turn Off The Stop/Start System
1. Push the STOP/START Off switch (located on the switch bank). The light on the switch will illuminate.

tion Center (EVIC) or Driver Informa-
tion Display (DID). Refer to “Elec-
tronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC)” or “Driver Information Display
(DID)” in “Understanding Your Instru-
ment Panel” in your owner’s manual
on the DVD for further information.
3. At the next vehicle stop (after turning off the STOP/START system) the en-
gine will not be stopped.
4. The STOP/START system will reset itself back to an ON condition every time the ignition is turned off and back on.

PARKSENSE
ParkSense Front And Rear Park Assist
ParkSense can be enabled and disabled by pushing the ParkSense switch located on
the switch panel below the Uconnect display.
The six ParkSense sensors, located in
the rear fascia/bumper, monitor the area
behind the vehicle that is within the sen-
sors’ field of view. The sensors can de-
tect obstacles from approximately 12 in
(30 cm) up to 79 in (200 cm) from the
rear fascia/bumper in the horizontal di-
rection, depending on the location, type
and orientation of the obstacle.
The six ParkSense sensors, located in the
front fascia/bumper, monitor the area in
front of the vehicle that is within the
sensors’ field of view. The sensors can
detect obstacles from approximately
12 in (30 cm) up to 47 in (120 cm) from
the front fascia/bumper in the horizontal
direction, depending on the location, type and orientation of the obstacle.
When an object is detected within 2 meters behind the rear bumper while the vehicle
is in REVERSE, a warning will display in the Electronic Vehicle Information Center
(EVIC) or Driver Information Display (DID). In addition a chime will sound (when
Sound and Display is selected from the Customer Programmable Features screen of
the Uconnect System). As the vehicle moves closer to the object, the chime rate will
change from single 1/2 second tone (for rear only), to slow (for rear only), to fast,
to continuous.
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.

ParkSense Active Park Assist
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system can be enabled and disabled with the ParkSense
Active Park Assist switch, located on the switch panel below the Uconnect display.
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system
is intended to assist the driver during
parallel and perpendicular parking ma-
neuvers by identifying a proper parking
space, providing audible/visual instruc-
tions, and controlling the steering wheel.
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system
is defined as “semi-automatic” since the
driver maintains control of the accelerator,
shift lever and brakes. Depending on the
driver’s parking maneuver selection, the
ParkSense Active Park Assist system is
capable of maneuvering a vehicle into a
parallel or a perpendicular parking space
on either side (i.e., driver side or passen-
ger side).
Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
CAUTION!
• ParkSense is only a parking aid and it is unable to recognize every obstacle,including small obstacles. Parking curbs might be temporarily detected or not
detected at all. Obstacles located above or below the sensors will not be
detected when they are in close proximity.
• The vehicle must be driven slowly when using ParkSense in order to be able to stop in time when an obstacle is detected. It is recommended that the driver
looks over his/her shoulder when using ParkSense.
WARNING!
• Drivers must be careful when backing up even when using ParkSense. Always
check carefully behind your vehicle, look behind you, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots before
backing up. You are responsible for safety and must continue to pay attention
to your surroundings. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or death.
• Before using ParkSense, it is strongly recommended that the ball mount and
hitch ball assembly is disconnected from the vehicle when the vehicle is not
used for towing. Failure to do so can result in injury or damage to vehicles or
obstacles because the hitch ball will be much closer to the obstacle than the
rear fascia when the loudspeaker sounds the continuous tone. Also, the sensors
could detect the ball mount and hitch ball assembly, depending on its size and
shape, giving a false indication that an obstacle is behind the vehicle.

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 button to 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 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 warning 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 Electronic Vehicle Informa-
tion Center (EVIC) or 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 Electronic Vehicle Information Center (EVIC) or Driver
Information Display (DID) to prompt the driver to remain within the lane. When only
a single 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’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.
PARKVIEW REAR BACK UP CAMERA
Your vehicle may be equipped with the ParkView Rear Back Up Camera that allows
you to see an on-screen image of the rear surroundings of your vehicle whenever the
shift lever is put into REVERSE. The image will be displayed in the touchscreen
display along with a caution note to “check entire surroundings” across the top of the
screen. After five seconds this note will disappear. The ParkView camera is located on
the rear of the vehicle above the rear License plate.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE
64

NOTE:
The ParkView Rear Back Up Camera has programmable modes of operation that may
be selected through the Uconnect System. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Under-
standing Your Instrument Panel” for further information.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE (with camera delay turned OFF), the rear
camera mode is exited and the previous screen appears again. When the vehicle is
shifted out of REVERSE (with camera delay turned ON), the camera image will
continue to be displayed for up to 10 seconds after shifting out of REVERSE unless
the vehicle speed exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h), the vehicle is shifted into PARK or the
vehicles ignition is cycled to the OFF position.
When enabled, active guide lines are overlaid on the image to illustrate the width of
the vehicle and its projected backup path based on the steering wheel position. A
dashed center line overlay indicates the center of the vehicle to assist with parking or
aligning to a hitch/receiver.
When enabled, fixed guide lines are overlaid on the image to illustrate the width of
the vehicle.
Different colored zones indicate the distance to the rear of the vehicle.
CAUTION!
• To avoid vehicle damage, ParkView should only be used as a parking aid. TheParkView camera is unable to view every obstacle or object in your drive path.
•
To avoid vehicle damage, the vehicle must be driven slowly when using ParkView
to be able to stop in time when an obstacle is seen. It is recommended that the
driver look frequently over his/her shoulder when using ParkView.
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 are responsible for the safety of your surroundings and must continue to
pay attention while backing up. Failure to do so can result in serious injury or
death.
NOTE:
If snow, ice, mud, or any foreign substance builds up on the camera lens, clean the
lens, rinse with water, and dry with a soft cloth. Do not cover the lens.
