Traction Control System (TCS)  
The  Traction  Control  System  (TCS)  monitors  the
amount  of  wheel  spin  of  each  of  the  driven
wheels.  If  wheel  spin  is  detected,  the  TCS  may
apply brake pressure to the spinning wheel(s) and/
or  reduce  engine  power  to  provide  enhanced
acceleration  and  stability.  A  feature  of  the  TCS,
Brake  Limited  Differential  (BLD),  functions
similar  to  a  limited  slip  differential  and  controls
the wheel spin across a driven axle. If one wheel
on a driven axle is spinning faster than the other,
the  system  will  apply  the  brake  of  the  spinning
wheel.  This  will  allow  more  engine  torque  to  be
applied  to  the  wheel  that  is  not  spinning.  BLD
may  remain  enabled  even  if  TCS  and  Electronic
Stability Control (ESC) are in a reduced mode.
AUXILIARY DRIVING 
SYSTEMS
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) — If 
Equipped 
The  Blind  Spot  Monitoring  (BSM)  system
uses two radar-based sensors, located inside
the  taillights,  to  detect  highway  licensable
vehicles  (automobiles,  trucks,  motorcycles,
etc.) that enter the blind spot zones from the
rear/front/side of the vehicle.Rear Detection Zones
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 (R) and enters standby mode when the
vehicle is in PARK (P).
The  BSM  detection  zone  covers  approximately
one lane width on both sides of the vehicle, 12 ft
(3.8 m). The zone length starts at the outside rear
view  mirror  and  extends  approximately  10 ft
(3 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.
 NOTE:
The  BSM  system  DOES  NOT  alert  the
driver  about  rapidly  approaching  vehicles
that are outside the detection zones.
The  BSM  system  detection  zone  DOES
NOT  change  if  your  vehicle  is  towing  a
trailer.  Therefore,  visually  verify  the  adja-
cent lane is clear for both your vehicle and
trailer before making a lane change. If the
trailer or other object (i.e., bicycle, sports
equipment)  extends  beyond  the  side  of
your  vehicle,  this  may  result  in  the  BSM
warning  light  remaining  illuminated  the
entire time the vehicle is in a forward gear.
The  Blind  Spot  Monitoring  (BSM)  system
may experience drop outs (blinking on and
off)  of  the  side  mirror  Warning  Indicator
lamps  when  a  motorcycle  or  any  small
object  remains  at  the  side  of  the  vehicle
for extended periods of time (more than a
couple of seconds).
The  area  on  taillights,  where  the  radar
sensors  are  located,  must  remain  free  of
snow,  ice,  and  dirt/road  contamination  so
that the BSM system  can  function properly.
Do  not  block  the  taillights  where  the  radar
sensors  are  located  with  foreign  objects
(bumper stickers, bicycle racks, etc.).

Manual Activation Of The Rear View Camera
1. Press  the  “Controls”  button  located  onthe bottom of the Uconnect display.
2. Press  the  “Backup  Camera”  button  to turn the Rear View Camera system on.
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  rear
Camera image will be displayed for up to 10
seconds  unless  the  vehicle  speed  exceeds
8 mph (13 km/h), the transmission is shifted
into PARK, the ignition is placed in the OFF
position,  or  the  touchscreen  button  “X”  to
disable  display  of  the  Rear  View  Camera
image is pressed.
Whenever  the  Rear  View  Camera  image  is
activated  through  the  “Backup  Camera”
button  in  the  “Controls”  menu,  and  the
vehicle  speed  is  greater  than,  or  equal  to,
8 mph  (13 km/h),  a  display  timer  for  the
image is initiated. The image will continue to
be displayed until the display timer exceeds
10 seconds. NOTE:
If the vehicle speed remains below 8 mph
(13 km/h),  the  Rear  View  Camera  image
will be displayed  continuously until deac-
tivated  via  the  touchscreen  button  “X”,
the  transmission  is  shifted  into  PARK,  or
the ignition is placed in the OFF position.
The  touchscreen  button  “X”  to  disable
display of the camera image is made avail
-
able  ONLY  when  the  vehicle  is  not  in
REVERSE.
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. 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  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.
 CAUTION!
To  avoid  vehicle  damage,  ParkView
should only be used as a parking aid. The
ParkView 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.
