Note:
Stay in neutral mode is a temporary
vehicle state with the ignition off. Extended
usage of stay in neutral mode may result in
a battery voltage reduction to a level where
the vehicle may no longer start. Do not tow
your vehicle in this mode unless in an
emergency situation as it will cause a drain
on the battery. See Towing the Vehicle on
Four Wheels (page 331).
Note: When entering an automatic car wash,
always shift in neutral (N). If you are exiting
the vehicle by the car wash, stay in neutral
mode is available. Failure to do this could
result in vehicle damage not covered by the
vehicle warranty.
Drive (D)
Drive (D) is the normal driving position for
the best fuel economy. If Your Vehicle Gets Stuck In Mud or
Snow
If your vehicle gets stuck in mud or snow,
you can rock it out by shifting between
forward and reverse gears, stopping
between shifts in a steady pattern. Press
lightly on the accelerator in each gear.
Note:
Do not rock your vehicle if the engine
is not at normal operating temperature or
damage to the transmission may occur.
Note: Do not rock your vehicle for more than
a minute or damage to the transmission and
tires could occur, or the engine may
overheat.

(If Equipped)

If your vehicle stays to one side of the lane
after the lane keeping aid corrects your
vehicle and then subsequently drifts out of
the lane again, the system only provides an
alert at the steering wheel.
Note:
The alert and aid diagrams illustrate
general zone coverage. They do not provide
exact zone parameters.
Intensity: This setting affects the intensity of
the steering wheel vibration used for the alert
and alert and aid modes.
This setting does
not affect the aid mode.
• Low.
• Normal.
• High. System Display
When you switch the system on, a graphic
of lane markings appears in the information
display.
When you switch the system off, the lane
marking graphics do not display.
While the system is on, the color of the lane
markings change to indicate the system
status. These colors represent the following:Gray: Indicates that the system is temporarily
unable to provide a warning or intervention
on the indicated side. This may be because:
•
Your vehicle is under the activation
speed.
• The direction indicator is active.
• Your vehicle is in a dynamic maneuver.
• The road has no or poor lane markings
in the camera field-of-view.
• Environmental, traffic or vehicle
conditions cause the camera to become
obscured or unable to detect the lane
markings. For example, significant sun
angles, shadows, snow, heavy rain or fog,
following a large vehicle that is blocking
or shadowing the lane or poor headlamp
illumination.
See
Troubleshooting for additional
information.
Green: Indicates that the system is available
or ready to provide a warning or intervention
on the indicated side.

Active braking: It activates if the system
determines that a collision is about to occur.
The system may help the driver reduce
impact damage or completely avoid the
crash.
Note: If you perceive pre-collision assist
alerts as being too frequent or disturbing,
you can reduce the alert sensitivity, though
we recommend using the highest sensitivity
setting where possible. Setting lower
sensitivity would lead to fewer and later
system warnings.
Note: Brake support and active braking are
active at speeds up to 75 mph (120 km/h). If
your vehicle has a radar sensor, included
with adaptive cruise control, then brake
support and active braking are active up to
the maximum speed of your vehicle.
Note: The system turns off when you select
the deep conditions drive mode. Distance Indication and Alert (If Equipped)
This feature is a function that provides the
driver with a graphical indication of the time
gap to other preceding vehicles traveling in
the same direction. The information display
screen shows one of the images that follow. If the time gap to a preceding vehicle is
small, a red visual indication displays to the
driver.
Note:
Distance indication and alert
deactivates and the images do not display
when adaptive cruise control is active.

WHAT IS DRIVE MODE CONTROL
The system delivers a driving experience
through a suite of sophisticated electronic
vehicle systems. These systems optimize
steering, handling and powertrain response.
This provides a single location to control
multiple systems performance settings.
Changing the drive mode automatically
changes the functionality of the following
systems:
•
Electronically power-assisted steering
system adjusts steering effort and feel
based on the mode you select. See
Steering (page 306).
• Electronic stability control and traction
control maintains your vehicle control in
adverse conditions or high performance
driving. See Stability Control (page 256).
• Electronic throttle control enhances the
powertrain response to your driving
inputs.
• Transmission controls optimize with shift
schedules tuned to each mode.
• AWD settings become optimized and
tuned to each mode. The system automatically tailors your vehicle
configuration for each mode you select.
Note:
Not all settings, or modes, may be
available.
Note: The system has diagnostic checks that
continuously monitor the system for proper
operation. If a mode is unavailable due to a
system fault, the mode defaults to Normal.
SELECTING A DRIVE MODE
Note: Drive mode changes may not be
available when the ignition is off. Rotate the drive mode dial on the center
console to change the drive mode.
DRIVE MODES
Conserve
Enables efficient driving. It helps to deliver
maximum fuel efficiency and helps to
increase driving range.
Deep Conditions
For crossing terrain that has deformable
deep, rutted surfaces such as mud, deep
sand or deep snow. Do not use on dry, hard
surfaced roads.

Excite
For sporty on-road driving. This mode
increases throttle response, provides a
sportier exhaust sound and steering feel,
along with quicker shifting. The suspension
could stiffen, with an emphasis on handling
and control. The transmission also holds
gears longer, helping your vehicle accelerate
faster when shifting gears.
Note:
Sportier exhaust sound may not be
available depending on vehicle
configuration.
Normal
For everyday driving. This mode is a perfect
balance of excitement, comfort and
convenience. This is the default mode after
each ignition cycle. Preserve EV - Plug-In Hybrid Electric
Vehicle (PHEV)
Your vehicle runs the engine as needed to
save electric driving range for later use in
another drive mode. For example, you first
drive at high speeds on open roads where
engine operation is appropriate. Later, you
drive at low speeds in an urban area where
electric only is most efficient. See Plug-In
Hybrid Vehicle Operation (page 206).
Pure EV - Plug-In Hybrid Electric
Vehicle (PHEV)
This mode provides an electric only driving
experience. Your vehicle could accelerate
more slowly, and the top speed could
reduce. For more power, you can temporarily
enable your engine at any time by using one
of the following methods: •
Press and hold the folder button on the
steering wheel when viewing the pure
EV information screen. Your vehicle
enables the engine as needed, and
returns to pure EV after several seconds,
or when the vehicle no longer needs the
engine.
• Press the accelerator pedal fully. A
pop-up message appears. Press OK on
the steering wheel to activate as needed.
Your vehicle could enable the engine if
system conditions require it. An engine
enabled message displays if this occurs. See
Information Messages
(page 137).
Your engine could enable if the climate
control is in a defrost mode and the outside
temperature is cold. If the vehicle does not
need defrost, select a different climate
control mode to permit pure EV.
Your vehicle changes from pure EV mode to
normal mode when the vehicle electric range
is zero.
Note: When in pure EV mode, your vehicle
stays in this mode if there is all electric
driving range available and the system does
not fault.

Recreational Towing - All-Wheel and
Four-Wheel Drive Vehicles (If Equipped)
You cannot recreational tow your vehicle
with all wheels on the ground because
vehicle or transmission damage could occur.
We recommend towing your vehicle with all
four wheels off the ground, such as when
using a car-hauling trailer. Otherwise, you
cannot recreational tow your vehicle. TOWING THE VEHICLE ON FOUR

Emergency Towing
In the event your vehicle becomes disabled
(without access to wheel dollies, car-hauling
trailer, or flatbed transport vehicle), it can be
flat-towed (all wheels on the ground,
regardless of the powertrain/transmission
configuration) under the following conditions:
•
The vehicle is facing forward so that it is
towed in a forward direction.
• Shift the transmission into neutral (N). If
you cannot shift the transmission into
neutral (N), you may need to override the
shifter and enable Stay in Neutral mode.
Failing to do so may result in damage to
the transmission.
See Transmission
(page 232).
• Maximum speed is
35 mph (56 km/h).
• Maximum distance is
50 mi (80 km). Recreational Towing
Note:
Put your climate control system in
recirculated air mode to prevent exhaust
fumes from entering your vehicle.
See
Climate Control (page 164).
Follow these guidelines if you have a need
for recreational (RV) towing. An example of
recreational towing would be towing your
vehicle behind a motorhome. These
guidelines are designed to ensure that your
transmission is not damaged.
You can tow your vehicle with all four wheels
on the ground using the Neutral Tow mode
in the information display. Alternatively, if
you have a front-wheel drive vehicle, you
can tow with the front wheels off the ground
by using a tow dolly. If you have an all-wheel
drive vehicle, you can tow with all four
wheels off the ground using a vehicle
transport trailer. If you are using a tow dolly
or a vehicle transport trailer, follow the
instruction specified by the equipment
provider.

ECONOMICAL DRIVING
Fuel economy is affected by several things
such as how you drive, the conditions you
drive under and how you maintain your
vehicle.
There are some things to keep in mind that
may improve your fuel economy:
•
Accelerate and slow down in a smooth,
moderate fashion.
• Drive at steady speeds.
• Anticipate stops; slowing down may
eliminate the need to stop.
• Combine errands and minimize
stop-and-go driving (When running
errands, go to the furthest destination
first and then work your way back home).
• Close the windows for high-speed
driving.
• Drive at reasonable speeds.
• Keep the tires properly inflated and use
only the recommended size.
• Use the recommended engine oil.
• Perform all regularly scheduled
maintenance. There are also some things you may want to
avoid doing because they reduce your fuel
economy:
•
Avoid sudden or hard accelerations.
• Avoid revving the engine before turning
off the car.
• Avoid long idle periods.
• Do not warm up your vehicle on cold
mornings.
• Reduce the use of air conditioning and
heat.
• Avoid using speed control in hilly terrain.
• Do not rest your foot on the brake pedal
while driving.
• Avoid carrying unnecessary weight.
• Avoid adding particular accessories to
your vehicle (e.g. bug deflectors,
rollbars/light bars, running boards, ski
racks).
• Avoid driving with the wheels out of
alignment. BREAKING-IN
You need to break in new tires for
approximately 300 mi (480 km). During this
time, your vehicle may exhibit some unusual
driving characteristics.
DRIVING THROUGH WATER WARNING:
Do not drive through
flowing or deep water as you may lose
control of your vehicle.
Note: Driving through standing water can
cause vehicle damage.
Note: Engine damage can occur if water
enters the air filter.
Before driving through standing water, check
the depth. Never drive through water that is
higher than the bottom of the front rocker
area of your vehicle.
