The LaneSense system will indicate the current lane drift
condition through the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC) or Driver Information Display (DID).
3.5 EVIC Screen — If Equipped
When the LaneSense system is ON, the lane lines are gray
when both of the lane boundaries have not been detected
and the LaneSense indicator is solid white.
System ON (Gray Lines/White Indicator)
372 STARTING AND OPERATING

Left Lane Departure — Only Left Lane Detected
•When the LaneSense system is ON, the LaneSense
indicator is solid white when only the left lane mark-
ing has been detected and the system is ready to
provide visual warnings in the EVIC if an uninten-
tional lane departure occurs.
•When the LaneSense system senses the lane has been
approached and is in a lane departure situation, the
left thick lane line flashes from white to gray, the left
thin line remains solid white and the LaneSense indi-
cator changes from solid white to flashing yellow.
NOTE:The LaneSense system operates with the similar
behavior for a right lane departure when only the right
lane marking has been detected.

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 EVIC and a torque warning in the
steering wheel if an unintentional lane departure oc-
curs.
•When the LaneSense system senses a lane drift situa-
tion, the left thick lane line and the left thin line turn
solid white. 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.

378 STARTING AND OPERATING

•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.Changing LaneSense Status
The LaneSense system has settings to adjust the intensity
of the torque warning and the warning zone sensitivity
(early/late) that you can configure through the Uconnect
system screen. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in “Multime-
dia” for further information.
NOTE:
•When enabled the system operates above 37 mph
(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
whenever a safety system engages. (anti-lock brakes,
traction control system, electronic stability control,
forward collision warning, etc.).

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 recom-
mended that the ball mount and hitch ball assem-
bly 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
(Continued)
WARNING!(Continued)
could detect the ball mount and hitch ball assem-
bly, depending on its size and shape, giving a false
indication that an obstacle is behind the vehicle.
If it’s necessary to keep the trailer hitch and hitch ball
assembly mounted for a long period, it is possible to filter
out the trailer hitch and hitch ball assembly presence in
sensor field of view. The filtering operation must be
performed only by an authorized dealer.
REAR BACK UP CAMERA — IF EQUIPPED
The Rear Back Up Camera that allows you to see an
on-screen image of your vehicle’s rear surroundings
when the shift lever is put into REVERSE. The image will
be displayed on the touchscreen display along with a
note to “check entire surroundings” across the top of the
screen. After five seconds this note will disappear. The
camera is located above the rear license plate.
386 STARTING AND OPERATING

The following table shows the approximate distances for
each zone:
Zone Distance to the rear of the vehicle
Red 0 - 1 ft (0 - 30 cm)
Yellow 1 ft - 3 ft (30 cm - 1 m)
Green 3 ft or greater (1 m or greater)
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.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up even when
using the Rear Back Up Camera. Always check care-
fully behind your vehicle, and be sure to check for
pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstructions, or
