Coverage area is up to 24 in (60 cm) from
the sides of your vehicle.
When the system detects an object close to
the side of your vehicle, an audible warning
sounds. As the object comes closer to the
side of your vehicle, the rate of the audible
warning increases. The rate of the audible
warning varies depending on whether the
obstacle is inside or outside of the driving
path of your vehicle. Obstacle Distance Indicator
(If Equipped)
The system provides obstacle distance
indication through the information display.
As the distance to the obstacle decreases,
the indicator blocks illuminate and move
toward the vehicle icon. If there is no
obstacle detected, the distance indicator
blocks show greyed out.When you shift to reverse (R), the side
sensing system provides audible and visual
distance indication when your vehicle is
moving and obstacles are detected within
12 in (30 cm), or when obstacles are detected
within
12–24 in (30–60 cm) and are inside
the driving path of your vehicle. When you
stop your vehicle the audible warning stops
after two seconds.
Note: Visual distance indication remains on
when the transmission is in reverse (R).
When you shift to drive (D) or any other
forward gear, for example, low (L), sport (S)
or any forward gear in manual transmission,
the side sensing system provides audible
and visual distance indication when your
vehicle is moving at 7 mph (12 km/h) or below
and obstacles are detected within
12 in
(30 cm), or when obstacles are detected
within 12–24 in (30–60 cm) and are inside
the driving path of your vehicle. When you
stop your vehicle the audible warning stops
after 2 seconds and the visual distance
indication stops after 4 seconds.

Note:
If the obstacle remains within 12 in
(30 cm) visual distance indication remains
on.
If the transmission is in neutral (N), the side
sensing system only provides visual distance
indication when your vehicle is moving at
7 mph (12 km/h) or below, for example when
moving on a slope, and obstacles are
detected within
12 in (30 cm). When you stop
your vehicle the visual distance indication
stops after 4 seconds.
If the side sensing system is not available,
the side distance indicator blocks will not be
present.
The side sensing system is not available
under the following condition:
• If you switch the traction control system
off. The side sensing system may not be

The front video camera, located behind the
star emblem on the grille, provides a video
image of the area in front of your vehicle. It
adds assistance to the driver while driving
forward at low speeds. To use the front video
camera system, place the transmission in any
gear except reverse (R). An image will display
once the camera enable button is pressed.
The area displayed on the screen may vary
according to your vehicle's orientation and/or
road condition.
Note:
Keep the star emblem free from snow,
ice and large accumulations of dirt. If
something is blocking the star emblem from
moving, the camera will not deploy.
Side Camera
The side view camera, located in the outside
mirror, provides a video image of the area
on the sides of your vehicle as part of the
front 360 + normal view and rear 360 +
normal view. It aids you while parking your

System Not Available
Conditions that can cause the system to
deactivate or prevent the system from
activating when requested include:
•
A blocked sensor.
• High brake temperature.
• A failure in the system or a related
system. Blocked Sensor WARNINGS
Do not use the system when towing a
trailer with brake controls. Aftermarket
trailer brakes do not function properly when
you switch the system on because the
brakes are electronically controlled. Failing
to do so may result in loss of vehicle control,
which could result in serious injury. The
system does operate with non-electronic
trailer brake controllers, such as over-run or
surge brakes. Do not use tire sizes other than those
recommended because this can affect
the normal operation of the system. Failing
to do so may result in a loss of vehicle
control, which could result in serious injury. A message appears if something obstructs
the sensor's radar signals. The sensor is
located behind a cover near the driver side
of the lower grille. The system cannot detect
a vehicle ahead and does not function when
something obstructs the radar signal. The
following table lists possible causes and
actions for this message displaying.
229
MKX (CD9) Canada/United States of America, enUSA, ASO/OGC Review Cruise ControlE145632

Action
Cause
Clean the grille surface in front of the radar or remove the object
causing the obstruction.
The surface of the radar in the grille is dirty or obstructed in some
way.
Wait a short time. It may take several minutes for the radar to detect
that it is free from obstruction.
The surface of the radar in the grille is clean but the message remains
in the display.
Do not use the system in these conditions because it may not detect
any vehicles ahead.
Heavy rain or snow is interfering with the radar signals.
Do not use the system in these conditions because it may not detect
any vehicles ahead.
Swirling water, or snow or ice on the surface of the road may interfere
with the radar signals.
Wait a short time or switch to normal cruise control.
You are in a desert or remote area with no other vehicles and no
roadside objects.
Due to the nature of radar technology, it is
possible to get a blockage warning with no
actual block. This happens, for example,
when driving in sparse rural or desert
environments. A false blocked condition
either self clears or clears after a you restart
your vehicle. Switching to Normal Cruise Control WARNING
Normal cruise control does not brake
for slower vehicles. Always be aware
of which mode you have selected and apply
the brakes when necessary. You can manually change from adaptive
cruise control to normal cruise control
through the information display.
The cruise control indicator light
replaces the adaptive cruise
control indicator light if you select
normal cruise control. The gap setting does
not display, the system does not
automatically respond to lead vehicles and
automatic braking does not activate.

DRIVER ALERT (If Equipped)
PRINCIPLE OF OPERATION WARNING
The driver alert system is designed to
aid you. It is not intended to replace
your attention and judgment. You are still
responsible to drive with due care and
attention. Note:
The system will store the on or off
setting in the information display menu
through ignition cycles.
Note: If enabled in the menu, the system will
be active at speeds above 40 mph (64 km/h).
When below the activation speed, the
information display will inform the driver that
the system is unavailable.
Note: The system works as long as one lane
marking can be detected by the camera.
Note: If the camera is blocked or if the
windshield is damaged, the system may not
function. Note:
The system may not be available in
poor weather or other low visibility
conditions.
The system automatically monitors your
driving behavior using various inputs
including the front camera sensor.

When activated, the system will monitor your
alertness level based upon your driving
behavior in relation to the lane markings, and
other factors.
System Warnings
Note: The system will not issue warnings
below approximately
40 mph (64 km/h). The warning system has two stages. At first,
the system issues a temporary warning that
you need to take a rest. This message will

The current assessment of your alertness is
within a typical range.
The current assessment of your alertness
indicates that you should rest as soon as
safely possible.
The status bar will travel from left to right as
the calculated alertness level decreases. As
the rest icon is approached the color turns
from green to yellow to red.
The yellow position indicates the first
warning is active and the red position
indicates the second warning is active.
