Caution
If you add electrical parts or
accessories, you could
change the way the engine
operates. Any resulting
damage would not be
covered by the vehicle
warranty. See Add-On
Electrical Equipment0325.
To start the vehicle: 1. With the Keyless Access system, the remote key
must be in the vehicle.
Press ENGINE START/
STOP with the brake pedal
applied. When the engine
begins cranking, let go of
the button. The idle speed
will go down as the engine
warms up. Do not race the
engine immediately after
starting it.
If the remote key is not in
the vehicle, if there is
interference, or if the
remote key battery is low,
a Driver Information Center (DIC) message will
display. See Remote Key
Operation
09.
Caution
Cranking the engine for long
periods of time, by pressing
ENGINE START/STOP
immediately after cranking
has ended, can overheat and
damage the cranking motor,
and drain the battery. Wait
at least 15 seconds between
each try, to let the cranking
motor cool down.
2. If the engine does not start after five to 10 seconds,
especially in very cold
weather (below −18 °C or
0 °F), it could be flooded
with too much gasoline.
Try pushing the
accelerator pedal all the
way to the floor and hold it
there, then press ENGINE
START/STOP for up to a
maximum of 15 seconds.
Wait at least 15 seconds
between each try, to allow the cranking motor to cool
down. When the engine
starts, let go of the button
and the accelerator. If the
vehicle starts briefly but
then stops again, do the
same thing. This clears the
extra gasoline from the
engine. Do not race the
engine immediately after
starting it. Operate the
engine and transmission
gently until the oil warms
up and lubricates all
moving parts.
Stop/Start System
The Stop/Start system will
shut off the engine to help
conserve fuel. It has
components designed for the
increased number of starts.
{Warning
The automatic engine Stop/
Start feature causes the
engine to shut off while the
vehicle is still on. Do not exit

replace the compact spare
with a full-size tire as soon as
possible. See Compact Spare
Tire0404.
Brakes
Electric Brake Boost
Vehicles equipped with
electric brake boost have
hydraulic brake circuits that
are electronically controlled
when the brake pedal is
applied during normal
operation. The system
performs routine tests and
turns off within a few minutes
after the vehicle is turned off.
Noise may be heard during
this time. If the brake pedal is
pressed during the tests or
when the electric brake boost
system is off, a noticeable
change in pedal force and
travel may be felt. This is
normal.
Antilock Brake
System (ABS)
The Antilock Brake System
(ABS) helps prevent a braking
skid and maintain steering
while braking hard.
If there is a problem with ABS,
this warning light stays on.
See Antilock Brake System
(ABS) Warning Light 0129.
ABS does not change the time
needed to get a foot on the
brake pedal and does not
always decrease stopping
distance. If you get too close
to the vehicle ahead, there will
not be enough time to apply
the brakes if that vehicle
suddenly slows or stops.
Always leave enough room
ahead to stop, even with ABS.
Using ABS
Do not pump the brakes. Just
hold the brake pedal down
firmly. Hearing and feeling ABS
operate is normal.
Braking in Emergencies
ABS allows steering and
braking at the same time. In
many emergencies, steering
can help even more than
braking.

Stability Control (ESC) system
activates, the ACC may
automatically disengage. See
Traction Control/Electronic
Stability Control0267. When
road conditions allow ACC to
be safely used, the ACC can
be turned back on.
Disabling the TCS or
StabiliTrak/ESC system will
disengage and prevent
engagement of ACC.
ACC can reduce the need for
you to frequently brake and
accelerate, especially when
used on expressways,
freeways, and interstate
highways. When used on other
roads, you may need to take
over the control of braking or
acceleration more often.
ACC automatically slows the
vehicle down while navigating
the curve and may increase
speed out of the curve, but will
not exceed the set speed.{Warning
ACC has limited braking
ability and may not have
time to slow the vehicle
down enough to avoid a
collision with another vehicle
you are following. This can
occur when vehicles
suddenly slow or stop
ahead, or enter your lane.
Also see “Alerting the
Driver” in this section.
Complete attention is
always required while driving
and you should be ready to
take action and apply the
brakes. See Defensive
Driving 0230.
{Warning
ACC will not detect or brake
for children, pedestrians,
animals, or other objects.
Do not use ACC when:
.On winding and hilly roads
or when the sensors are
blocked by snow, ice,
or dirt. The system may
not detect a vehicle
ahead. Keep the entire
front of the vehicle clean.
.Visibility is low, such as in
fog, rain, or snow
conditions. ACC
performance is limited
under these conditions.
.On slippery roads where
fast changes in tire
traction can cause
excessive wheel slip.
.When towing a trailer.

278 Driving and Operating
Reducing Speed While ACC is
at a Set Speed
If ACC is already activated, do
one of the following:
.Use the brake to get to the
desired lower speed.
Release the brake and press
SET–. The vehicle will now
cruise at the lower speed.
.Press and hold SET– until
the desired lower speed is
reached, then release it.
.To decrease speed in
smaller increments, press
SET− to the first detent. For
each press, the vehicle goes
about 1 km/h (1 mph) slower.
.To decrease speed in larger
increments, press SET− to
the second detent. For each
press, the vehicle speed
decreases to the next
5 km/h (5 mph) mark on the
speedometer.
The set speed can also be
decreased while the vehicle is
stopped.
.If stopped with the brake
applied, press or hold SET−
until the desired set speed is
displayed.
Selecting the Follow
Distance Gap
When a slower moving vehicle
is detected ahead within the
selected following gap, ACC
will adjust the vehicle's speed
and attempt to maintain the
follow distance gap selected.
Press
[on the steering
wheel to adjust the following
gap. Each press cycles the gap
button through three settings:
Far, Medium, or Near.
When pressed, the current
gap setting displays briefly on
the instrument cluster and
HUD, if equipped. The gap
setting will be maintained until
it is changed.
Since each gap setting
corresponds to a following
time (Far, Medium, or Near),
the following distance will vary
based on vehicle speed. The faster the vehicle speed, the
further back your vehicle will
follow a vehicle detected
ahead. Consider traffic and
weather conditions when
selecting the following gap.
The range of selectable gaps
may not be appropriate for all
drivers and driving conditions.
Changing the gap setting
automatically changes the
alert timing sensitivity (Far,
Medium, or Near) for the
Forward Collision Alert (FCA)
feature. See Forward Collision
Alert (FCA) System
0297.
Alerting the Driver
With Head-Up Display

16412876) - 2023 - CRC - 3/25/22
Driving and Operating 279
Without Head-Up Display
If ACC is engaged, driver
action may be required when
ACC cannot apply sufficient
braking because of
approaching a vehicle too
rapidly.
When this condition occurs,
the collision alert symbol will
flash on the windshield. Either
eight beeps will sound from
the front, or both sides of the
Safety Alert Seat will pulse
five times. Touch the Settings
icon on the infotainment home
page. Select “Vehicle”to
display the list of available
options and select “Collision/
Detection Systems”.
See Defensive Driving 0230. Approaching and Following a
Vehicle
The vehicle ahead indicator is
in the instrument cluster and
HUD display, if equipped.
The vehicle ahead indicator
only displays when a vehicle is
detected in your vehicle’s path
moving in the same direction.
If this symbol is not displaying,
ACC will not respond to or
brake for vehicles ahead.
ACC automatically slows the
vehicle down and adjusts
vehicle speed to follow the
vehicle in front at the selected
follow gap. The vehicle speed
increases or decreases to
follow the vehicle in front of
you, but will not exceed the
set speed. It may apply limited
braking, if necessary. When braking is active, the brake
lamps will come on. The
automatic braking may feel or
sound different than if the
brakes were applied manually.
This is normal.
Passing a Vehicle While
Using ACC
If the set speed is high
enough, and the left turn
signal is used to pass a vehicle
ahead in the selected
following gap, ACC may assist
by gradually accelerating the
vehicle prior to the lane
change.
{Warning
When using ACC to pass a
vehicle or perform a lane
change, the following
distance to the vehicle being
passed may be reduced.
ACC may not apply
sufficient acceleration or
braking when passing a
vehicle or performing a lane

behind and 1.2 m (4 ft) in front
of your vehicle that are taller
than 25 cm (10 in).
Different environmental
conditions may affect whether
and how far the Park Assist
system can detect objects.
Keep the sensors clean of
mud, dirt, snow, ice, and slush;
and clean sensors after a car
wash in freezing
temperatures. Sensors that
are not clean may not detect
objects or may cause the
system to alert when not
required.
{Warning
The Park Assist System is
no substitute for careful and
attentive driving. The Park
Assist system does not
detect children, pedestrians,
bicyclists, animals, or objects
located below the bumper or
that are too close or too far
from the vehicle. It is not
available at speeds greater(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
than 9 km/h (6 mph). To
prevent injury, death,
or vehicle damage, even with
Park Assist, always check
the area around the vehicle
and check all mirrors before
moving forward or backing.
How the System Works
The vehicle may have a Park
Assist amphitheatre-like
display on the cluster with
bars that represent the
estimated location of a
detected object and the
vehicle’s distance from the
object. As a detected object
becomes closer, more bars
light up and change color from
yellow to amber to red.
When an object is first
detected in the rear, one beep
will be heard from the rear,
or the driver's seat will pulse
two times, if equipped with
Safety Alert Seat. When an
object is very close, five beeps will sound from the front or
rear (depending on the
object's location), or the
driver's seat will pulse five
times. Beeps for front are
higher pitched than the rear.
Turning the System On
and Off
The Park Assist System can
be turned on or off using the
infotainment system. To view
available settings for this
feature, touch the Settings
icon on the infotainment home
page. Select
“Vehicle”to
display the list of available
options and select “Collision/
Detection Systems”.

Collision Alert
With Head-Up Display
Without Head-Up Display
When your vehicle approaches
another detected vehicle too
rapidly, the red FCA display
will flash on the windshield.
Also, eight rapid high-pitched
beeps will sound from the
front, or both sides of the Safety Alert Seat will pulse
five times. When this Collision
Alert occurs, the brake system
may prepare for driver braking
to occur more rapidly which
can cause a brief, mild
deceleration. Continue to
apply the brake pedal as
needed.
Tailgating Alert
The vehicle ahead indicator
will display amber when you
are following a vehicle ahead
much too closely.
Selecting the Alert Timing
The Collision Alert control is
on the steering wheel. Press
[to set the FCA timing to
Far, Medium, or Near. The first
button press shows the
current setting on the DIC.
Additional button presses will
change this setting. The
chosen setting will remain until
it is changed and will affect
the timing of both the Collision
Alert and the Tailgating Alert
features. The timing of both
alerts will vary based on
vehicle speed. The faster the
vehicle speed, the farther
away the alert will occur.
Consider traffic and weather
conditions when selecting the
alert timing. The range of
selectable alert timings may
not be appropriate for all
drivers and driving conditions.
If your vehicle is equipped with
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC),
changing the FCA timing
setting automatically changes
the following gap setting (Far,
Medium, or Near).
