WHAT IS BRAKE COACH
The brake coach appears after the vehicle
has come to a stop. It coaches you to brake
in a manner that maximizes the amount
of energy returned through the
regenerative braking system.
The percent displayed is an indication of
the regenerative braking efficiency with
100% representing the maximum amount
of energy recovery.
Note:
While regenerative braking works in
all drive modes, brake coach display may
not be available in all modes.
You can switch brake coach on or off in the
settings menu on your touchscreen.
1. Access the vehicle drawer on the touchscreen.
2. Press SETTINGS.
3. Press
Vehicle.

WHAT IS TRACTION CONTROL
The traction control system helps to avoid
drive wheel spin and loss of traction.
HOW DOES TRACTION
CONTROL WORK
If your vehicle begins to slide, the system
applies the brakes to individual wheels
and, when needed, reduces power at the
same time. If the wheels spin when
accelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,
the system reduces power in order to
increase traction.
SWITCHING TRACTION
CONTROL ON AND OFF
WARNING: Operating your vehicle
with the traction control disabled could
lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.
The traction control system turns on each
time you switch the power on.
The switch for the stability and traction
control system is on the instrument panel.
When you switch the system off, a
message and an illuminated icon appear
on the instrument cluster.
Use the switch again to return the traction
control system to normal operation. If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,
switching traction control off may be
beneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.
Note:
When you switch traction control off,
stability control remains fully active.
Your vehicle could have MyKey restrictions
regarding this feature. See
What Is
MyKey (page 73).

Detection Issues Can Occur:
When driving on a different line
than the vehicle in front.
A
With vehicles that edge into your
lane. The system can only detect
these vehicles once they move
fully into your lane.
B
There may be issues with the
detection of vehicles in front
when driving into and coming out
of a bend or curve in the road.
C
In these cases, the system may brake late
or unexpectedly.
If something hits the front end of your
vehicle or damage occurs, the
radar-sensing zone could change. This
could cause missed or false vehicle
detection. Optimal system performance requires a
clear view of the road by the
windshield-mounted camera.
Optimal performance may not occur if:
•
The camera is blocked.
• There is poor visibility or lighting
conditions.
• There are bad weather conditions.
SWITCHING ADAPTIVE
CRUISE CONTROL ON AND OFF
The cruise controls are on the steering
wheel. See Visual Search (page 25).
Switching Adaptive Cruise Control
On Press the button to activate the
system. When the system
activates, the set speed is equal
to whichever is greater, the current vehicle
speed, or 15 mph when in imperial units or
20 km/h when in metric units. If the speed
is too low, or other conditions are not
correct for adaptive cruise control
activation, the system enters standby
mode. When you are below 15 mph when
in imperial units or 20 km/h when in metric
units, adaptive cruise control does not
activate unless you are following another
vehicle.
The indicator, current gap setting and set
speed appear in the instrument cluster
display.
Switching Adaptive Cruise Control
Off Press the button when the
system is in standby mode or
switch the ignition off.
Note: When you switch the system off, the
set speed clears.
