3. At the next vehicle stop (after turning offthe STOP/START system) the engine will
not be stopped.
4. If the STOP/START system is manually turned off, the engine can only be started
and stopped by cycling the ignition
switch.
5. The STOP/START system will reset itself back to an ON condition every time the
key is turned off and back on.
To Manually Turn On The Stop/Start
System
Push the STOP/START Off switch (located on
the switch bank). The light on the switch will
turn off.
SPEED CONTROL
The Speed Control switches are located on
the right side of the steering wheel.
Activation
Push the on/off button to activate the Speed
Control, “CRUISE CONTROL READY” will
appear on the instrument cluster display to indicate the Speed Control is on. Push the
on/off button a second time to turn the sys-
tem off, “CRUISE CONTROL OFF” will ap-
pear on the instrument cluster display to
indicate the Speed Control is off. The system
should be turned off when not in use.
WARNING!
Leaving the Speed Control system on when
not in use is dangerous. You could acci-
dentally set the system or cause it to go
faster than you want. You could lose con-
trol and have an accident. Always leave the
system off when you are not using it.
Setting A Desired Speed

The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is
intended to assist the driver during parallel
and perpendicular parking maneuvers by
identifying a proper parking space, providing
audible/visual instructions, and controlling
the steering wheel. The ParkSense Active
Park Assist system is defined as “semi-
automatic” since the driver maintains control
of the accelerator, gear selector 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 pas-
senger side).
NOTE:
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system
automatically defaults to looking for vehicles
on the right.To search for a parking spot on the
left, use the left turn signal.
Refer to your Owner's Manual for further
information.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, ob-
structions, and blind spots before back-
ing 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.
CAUTION!
• ParkSense is only a parking aid and it isunable to recognize every obstacle, in-
cluding 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 de-
tected. It is recommended that the
driver looks over his/her shoulder when
using ParkSense.
LANESENSE
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.
151

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, as
well as a visual warning in the instrument
cluster display, 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 instrument cluster display 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.
NOTE:
When operating conditions have been met,
the LaneSense system will monitor if thedriver’s hands are on the steering wheel and
provide an audible and visual warning to the
driver when the driver’s hands are not de-
tected 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
switch panel below the Uconnect display.
To turn the LaneSense system on, push the
LaneSense button (LED turns off). A “Lane-
Sense On” message is shown in the instru-
ment cluster display.
To turn the LaneSense system off, push the
LaneSense button once (LED turns on).
NOTE:
The LaneSense system will retain the last
system state, on or off, from the last ignition
cycle when the ignition is changed to the
ON/RUN position.
LaneSense Warning Message
The LaneSense system will indicate the cur-
rent lane drift condition through the instru-
ment cluster display.
Base Instrument Cluster Display — If Equipped
When the LaneSense system is on; the lane
lines are gray when both of the lane bound-
aries have not been detected and the Lane-
Sense telltale is solid white.
Left Lane Departure — Only Left Lane Detected
• When the LaneSense system is on, the
LaneSense telltale is solid white when only
the left lane marking has been detected
and the system is ready to provide visual
warnings in the instrument cluster display
if an unintentional 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
telltale changes from solid white to flashing
yellow.
STARTING AND OPERATING
152

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 lanelines turn from gray to white to indicate that
both of the lane markings have been de-
tected. The LaneSense telltale is solid
green when both lane markings have been
detected and the system is “armed” to
provide visual warnings in the instrument
cluster display and a torque warning in the
steering wheel if an unintentional lane de-
parture occurs.
• When the LaneSense system senses a lane drift situation, the left thick lane line and
the left thin line turn solid white. The Lane-
Sense telltale changes from solid green to
solid yellow. At this time torque is applied
to the steering wheel in the opposite direc-
tion 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 from white to gray, the left thin line
remains solid white and the LaneSense
telltale changes from solid yellow to flash-
ing 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.

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
“Multimedia” in your Owner’s Manual 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 warn- ings.
• 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.).
