34GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
NOTE:If the headlight delay function is disabled in the
Uconnect Setting, when you put the ignition in the
OFF position with the multifunction lever already
set in the headlight position, the headlights remain
on for 8 minutes.
FOG LIGHTS — IF EQUIPPED
The fog light switch is located on the instrument
panel to the left of the steering column.
To activate the front fog lights, turn on the
parking lights or the low beam headlights
and push the fog light button. To turn off
the front fog lights, push the fog light
button a second time or turn off the headlight
switch. An indicator light in the instrument cluster
illuminates when the fog lights are turned on.
NOTE:The fog lights will operate with the low beam head -
lights or parking lights on. Selecting the high beam
headlights will turn off the fog lights.
If the vehicle’s ignition is turned off, the fog lights
will also turn off. Cornering Lights
The cornering lights are a feature to improve visibility at
night while turning the vehicle. When activated, a light
incorporated in the front fog light will illuminate on the
side of the vehicle the steering wheel is rotated or the
turn signal indicator is on. It can be activated through
the Uconnect system
Ú
page 120.
TURN SIGNALS
Move the multifunction lever up or down and the
arrows on each side of the instrument cluster will
flash to show proper operation of the front and rear
turn signals.
NOTE:When the Daytime Running Lights are on and a
turn signal is activated, the Daytime Running Lamp
will turn off on the side of the vehicle in which the
turn signal is flashing. The Daytime Running Lamp
will turn back on when the turn signal is turned off.
If either light remains on and does not flash, or
there is a very fast flash rate, check for a defective
outside light bulb.
LANE CHANGE ASSIST
Lightly push the multifunction lever up or down,
without moving beyond the detent, and the turn
signal will flash five times then automatically
turn off.
BATTERY SAVER
To protect the life of your vehicle’s battery, when
the ignition is OFF and any door is left ajar for
15 minutes, the interior lights will automatically
turn off.
NOTE:Battery saver mode is canceled if the ignition is
placed in the ON/RUN position.
22_VF_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 34
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR INSTRUMENT PANEL67
Active Lane Management Indicator Light —
If Equipped
When the Active Lane Management
system is ON, but not armed, the Active
Lane Management indicator light
illuminates solid white. This occurs when
only left, right, or neither lane line has been
detected. If a single lane line is detected, the
system is ready to provide only visual warnings if
an unintentional lane departure occurs on the
detected lane line Ú page 102.
Active Speed Limiter Ready Indicator
Light — If Equipped With A Premium
Instrument Cluster
This light will illuminate when the Active
Speed Limiter has been turned on, but
not set Úpage 79.
Speed Warning Indicator Light —
If Equipped
When Set Speed Warning is turned on,
the speed warning telltale will illuminate
in the instrument cluster with a number
matching the set speed. When the set
speed is exceeded, a single chime will sound along
with pop-up message of speed warning exceeded.
Speed Warning can be turned on and off in the
instrument cluster display Ú page 55.
NOTE:The number “55” is only an example of a speed
that can be set.
ONBOARD DIAGNOSTIC SYSTEM — OBD II
Your vehicle is equipped with a sophisticated Onboard
Diagnostic system called OBD II. This system monitors
the performance of the emissions, engine, and
transmission control systems. When these systems are
operating properly, your vehicle will provide excellent
performance and fuel economy, as well as engine
emissions well within current government regulations.
If any of these systems require service, the OBD II
system will turn on the Malfunction Indicator Light
(MIL). It will also store diagnostic codes and other
information to assist your service technician in
making repairs. Although your vehicle will usually
be drivable and not need towing, see an authorized
dealer for service as soon as possible.
CAUTION!
Prolonged driving with the MIL on could cause
further damage to the emission control
system. It could also affect fuel economy and
driveability. The vehicle must be serviced
before any emissions tests can be performed.
If the MIL is flashing while the vehicle is
running, severe catalytic converter damage
and power loss will soon occur. Immediate
service is required.

STARTING AND OPERATING87
Distance Settings
To adjust the distance setting, push the Distance
Setting Button and release. Each time the button is
pushed, the distance setting decreases by one bar
(longer). Once the longest setting is reached, if the
button is pushed again it will be set to the shortest
setting available.
If a slower moving vehicle is detected in the same
lane, the instrument cluster display will show the
ACC Set With Target Detected Light. The system
will then adjust vehicle speed automatically to
maintain the distance setting, regardless of the
set speed.
The vehicle will then maintain the set distance until:
The vehicle ahead accelerates to a speed above
the set speed.
The vehicle ahead moves out of your lane or
view of the sensor.
The distance setting is changed.
The system disengages Ú
page 84.
The maximum braking applied by ACC is limited;
however, the driver can always apply the brakes
manually, if necessary.
NOTE:The brake lights will illuminate whenever the ACC
system applies the brakes.
A Proximity Warning will alert the driver if ACC
predicts that its maximum braking level is not
sufficient to maintain the set distance. If this
occurs, a visual alert “BRAKE!” will flash in the
instrument cluster display and a chime will sound
while ACC continues to apply its maximum braking
force.
NOTE:The “BRAKE!” screen in the instrument cluster
display is a warning for the driver to take action
and does not necessarily mean that the Forward
Collision Warning system is applying the brakes
autonomously.
Overtake Aid
When driving with Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
engaged and following a vehicle, the system will
provide an additional acceleration up to the ACC
set speed to assist in passing the vehicle. This
additional acceleration is triggered when the driver
utilizes the left turn signal and will only be active
when passing on the left hand side.
ACC Operation At Stop
In the event that the ACC system brings your
vehicle to a standstill while following a vehicle in
front, if the vehicle in front starts moving within two
seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill, your
vehicle will resume motion without the need for
any driver action.
If the vehicle in front does not start moving within
two seconds of your vehicle coming to a standstill,
the driver will either have to push the RES (resume)
button, or apply the accelerator pedal to reengage
the ACC to the existing set speed.
NOTE:After the ACC system holds your vehicle at a stand -
still for approximately three consecutive minutes,
the parking brake will be activated, and the ACC
system will be cancelled.
While ACC is holding your vehicle at a standstill, if
the driver seat belt is unbuckled or the driver door
is opened, the parking brake will be activated, and
the ACC system will be cancelled.

Supplemental Information
Supplemental information may be displayed along
with a newly detected speed limit indicating
special circumstances the driver should be aware
of. Available supplemental information includes:
School
Construction
Rain
Snow
Fog
Speed Limit Exceeded
When the vehicle’s speed exceeds the displayed
speed limit by 3 mph (5 km/h), the speed limit sign
on the instrument cluster display will show a red

ACTIVE DRIVING ASSIST SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
OPERATION
The Active Driving Assist (ADA) system is combined
with the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) system, and
centers the vehicle in the driving lane while
traveling at speeds up to 93 mph (150 km/h).
Just like ACC, ADA will maintain a set speed as long
as the set distance between your vehicle and the
vehicle in front is maintained. ADA will also keep
your vehicle centered between the lane lines, and
monitor for other vehicles in adjacent lanes.
ADA uses sensors within the steering wheel to
monitor driver attentiveness. ADA requires the
driver’s hands on the steering wheel at all times.
1 — Current Speed Limit With Supplemental
Information (School Zone)
2 — No Passing Zone Detected
3 — Next Speed Limit Detected
WARNING!
To prevent serious injury or death:
Always remain alert and be ready to take
control of the vehicle in the event that the
Active Driving Assist system disables.
Always keep your hands on the steering wheel
when the Active Driving Assist system is acti
-
vated.
Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles
and pay attention to traffic conditions.
Do not place any objects on the steering wheel
(e.g. steering wheel covers) which could inter -
fere with the hand detection sensors.

Active Driving Assist Engaged (Steering Wheel Green)
WARNING!
The Active Driving Assist (ADA) system is a
convenience system. It is not a substitute for active
driver involvement. It is always the driver’s
responsibility to be attentive of road traffic, weather
conditions, vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle
ahead, position in the lane compared to other
vehicles, and brake operation to ensure safe
operation of the vehicle under all road conditions.
Your complete attention is always required while
driving to maintain safe control of your vehicle.
Failure to follow these warnings can result in a
collision and death or serious personal injury.
You should turn off the Active Driving Assist system:
When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy snow,
sleet, and complex driving situations (i.e., in
construction zones).
When entering a highway off ramp, when
driving on roads that are icy, snow covered, or
slippery.
When circumstances do not allow safe driving.

outside. Gripping the inside areas of the steering
wheel will not satisfy the hands-on condition to
engage the system.
Do Not Grip Inside Of Steering Wheel
System Deactivation
The system will be deactivated in any of the
following situations:
If the system has detected driver inattentive -
ness, and has gone through all escalation warn -
ings after hands are no longer detected on the
steering wheel
If lane markings are no longer detected
If the Active Driving Assist on/off button is
pushed again (ADA will turn off)
If a turn signal is used
If the driver applies torque to the steering wheel
If the vehicle speed exceeds 93 mph (150 km/h)
If the ACC system is deactivated
If the Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system
becomes active and is providing warnings/braking
NOTE:
Pushing the Active Driving Assist on/off button
will turn the system off. All other deactivation
conditions will place the system back into the
“enabled” state with the steering wheel indi -
cator displayed in grey until all engagement
conditions are met again.
When the system is deactivated, the system
status indicator lights will turn off, Active Lane
Management will return to its previous state,
and ACC will disable.
INDICATIONS ON THE DISPLAY
The Active Driving Assist system status can always
be viewed in the instrument cluster display, and
status changes are shown by changes in color of
the system’s indicator lights.
As the system detects driver inattentiveness as
previously described Ú page 92, the system
status indicator lights will change from green, to
yellow, to red, while the steering wheel icon on
the display moves up the screen to the center.
The following indicators will change in color as
warnings to the driver escalate:
