2022 RAM PROMASTER CITY ECO mode

STARTING AND OPERATING59
If the transmission becomes extremely hot, the
Transmission Temperature Warning Light may
illuminate and the transmission may operate
differently until the transmission cools down.

During cold temperatures, transmission
operation may be modified depending on engine
and transmission temperature as well as vehicle
speed. This feature improves warm up time of the
engine and transmission to achieve maximum
efficiency. Engagement of the torque converter
clutch, and shifts into EIGHTH or NINTH gear, are
inhibited until the transmission fluid is warm

Ú
page 59. Normal operation will resume once
the transmission temperature has risen to a
suitable level.

Transmission Limp Home Mode
Transmission function is monitored electronically
for abnormal conditions. If a condition is detected
that could result in transmission damage,
Transmission Limp Home Mode is activated. In this
mode, the transmission may operate only in a fixed
gear, or may remain in NEUTRAL. The Malfunction
Indicator Light (MIL) may be illuminated. Limp
Home Mode may allow the vehicle to be driven to
an authorized dealer for service without damaging
the transmission. In the event of a momentary problem, the
transmission can be reset to regain all forward
gears by performing the following steps:

1. Stop the vehicle.

2. Shift the transmission into PARK.
3. Turn the ignition OFF.
4. Wait approximately 10 seconds.
5. Restart the engine.
6. Shift into the desired gear range. If the
problem is no longer detected, the
transmission will return to normal operation.
NOTE:
Even if the transmission can be reset, we recommend
that you visit an authorized dealer at your earliest
possible convenience. An authorized dealer has diag -
nostic equipment to assess the condition of your
transmission. If the transmission cannot be reset,
authorized dealer service is required.

Torque Converter Clutch
A feature designed to improve fuel economy has
been included in the automatic transmission on
your vehicle. A clutch within the torque converter
engages automatically at calibrated speeds. This
may result in a slightly different feeling or response
during normal operation in the upper gears. When
the vehicle speed drops or during some
accelerations, the clutch automatically
disengages.
NOTE:The torque converter clutch will not engage until
the transmission fluid is warm [usually after 1 to
3 miles (2 to 5 km) of driving]. Because the engine
speed is higher when the torque converter clutch is
not engaged, it may seem as if the transmission is
not shifting properly when cold. This is normal. The
torque converter clutch will function normally once
the transmission is sufficiently warm.
Electronic Range Select (ERS) Operation
The ERS shift control allows the driver to limit the
highest available gear. For example, if you set the
transmission gear limit to FIFTH gear, the
transmission will not shift above FIFTH gear, but
will shift through the lower gears normally.
You can switch between DRIVE and ERS mode at
any vehicle speed. When the gear selector is in the
DRIVE position, the transmission will operate
automatically, shifting between all available gears.

Moving the gear selector to the ERS position (beside
DRIVE) will activate ERS mode, display the current
gear in the instrument cluster, and set that gear as
the top available gear. Once in ERS mode, moving
the gear selector forward “-” or rearward “+” will
change the top available gear, which will be
displayed in the instrument cluster.

To exit ERS mode, simply return the gear selector
to the DRIVE position.4

62STARTING AND OPERATING
Using Cruise Control On Hills
The transmission may downshift on hills to
maintain the vehicle set speed.
NOTE:The Cruise Control system maintains speed up and
down hills. A slight speed change on moderate hills
is normal. On steep hills, a greater speed loss or
gain may occur so it may be preferable to drive
without Cruise Control.
TO RESUME SPEED
To resume a previously set speed, push the RES (+)
button and release. Resume can be used at any
speed above 20 mph (32 km/h) up to the
maximum speed of 100 mph (160 km/h).
TO DEACTIVATE
A tap on the brake pedal, pushing the CAN button,
or normal brake pressure will deactivate the Cruise
Control system without erasing the set speed from
memory.
Pushing the on/off button or turning the ignition
switch off erases the set speed from memory.
PARKSENSE REAR PARK ASSIST —
IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense system provides an audible
indication of the distance between the rear fascia/
bumper and a detected obstacle when backing up
(e.g. during a parking maneuver) Ú page 64.

The ParkSense system is automatically activated
when the transmission is placed into REVERSE. As
the distance from an obstacle behind the vehicle
decreases, the audible alert becomes more frequent.

Interaction With Trailer Towing
The ParkSense system is automatically
deactivated when a trailer equipped by Mopar® is
hitched to the vehicle. The system will be
automatically activated as soon as the trailer is
removed. If it does not happen, turning the key
ignition switch to STOP (OFF/LOCK) position and
then to AVV (START) again would be needed. If a
non-Mopar® trailer hitch is mounted, the sensor
deactivation cannot be guaranteed.
PARKSENSE REAR PARK ASSIST
S
ENSORS

The four ParkSense sensors, located in the rear
fascia/bumper, monitor the area behind the vehicle
that is within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors
can detect obstacles, in the horizontal direction,
from approximately 12 inches (30 cm) up to
55 inches (140 cm) from the center of the rear
fascia/bumper and up to 24 inches (60 cm) from
the corners of the rear fascia/bumper, depending on
the location, type and orientation of the obstacle.
ParkSense Rear Park Assist Sensors Locations

If several obstacles are detected, the ParkSense
system indicates the nearest obstacle.
The minimum height of a detectable obstacle
corresponds to the maximum height of an obstacle
that would clear the underside of the vehicle
during the parking maneuver.
WARNING!
Cruise Control can be dangerous where the
system cannot maintain a constant speed. Your
vehicle could go too fast for the conditions, and
you could lose control and have an accident. Do
not use Cruise Control in heavy traffic or on
roads that are winding, icy, snow-covered or
slippery.

22_VM_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 62

STARTING AND OPERATING65
If it’s necessary to keep the ball mount and hitch
ball assembly mounted for a long period, it is
possible to filter out the ball mount and hitch ball
assembly presence in the sensor field of view. The
filtering operation must be performed only by an
authorized dealer.
PARKVIEW REAR BACK UP CAMERA
Your vehicle is equipped with the ParkView Rear
Back Up Camera that allows you to see an
on-screen image of the rear surroundings of your
vehicle whenever the gear selector is put into
REVERSE. The image will be displayed on the
touchscreen display along with a caution note to “Check Entire Surroundings” across the top of the
screen. After five seconds this note will disappear.
The ParkView camera is located on the rear of the
vehicle above the rear license plate.
The Rear Back Up Camera can also be activated
when the vehicle is not in REVERSE through the
Uconnect system Ú
page 79.
NOTE:If one of the rear cargo doors is not completely
closed, the Back Up Camera cannot provide an
accurate image of the area behind the vehicle. A
dedicated message will appear on the Uconnect
display indicating the camera is not in the correct
position.
The Camera Delay setting can be set to on/off in
the rear camera settings menu. When the vehicle
is shifted out of REVERSE and the Camera Delay is
turned off, the rear camera mode is exited and the
navigation or audio screen appears on display
again.
When the transmission is shifted out of REVERSE,
and Camera Delay is activated in the menu screen,
the camera image will continue to be displayed for
up to 10 seconds, unless the speed of the vehicle
is greater than 8 mph (13 km/h), the transmission
is in PARK, or the ignition is placed in the STOP
(OFF/LOCK) position. When displayed, static grid lines will illustrate the
width of the vehicle and will show separate zones
that will help indicate the distance to the rear of
the vehicle. The following table shows the
approximate distances for each zone:
CAUTION!
ParkSense is only a parking aid and it is
unable to recognize every obstacle, including
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 detected. It is recom
-
mended that the driver looks over his/her
shoulder when using ParkSense.
Zone Distance To The Rear
Of The Vehicle
Red 0 - 1 ft (0 - 30 cm)
Yellow 1 ft - 3 ft (30 cm - 1 m)
Green 3 ft or greater
(1 m or greater)
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.
