SPEED SIGN RECOGNITION (IF
EQUIPPED)
Principle of Operation
WARNING: You are responsible forcontrolling your vehicle at all times. Thesystem is designed to be an aid and doesnot relieve you of your responsibility todrive with due care and attention. Failureto follow this instruction could result inthe loss of control of your vehicle,personal injury or death.
WARNING: In cold and severeweather conditions the system may notfunction. Rain, snow and spray can alllimit sensor performance.
WARNING: The system may notoperate properly if the sensor is blocked.Keep the windshield free fromobstruction.
The system is designed to detect speedlimit signs to inform you of the currentspeed limit. Detected speed signs appearin the information display. The sensor isbehind the interior mirror.
Note:Do not carry out windshield repairsin the immediate area surrounding thesensor.
Note:Speed sign data provided by thenavigation system contains informationintegrated to the data carrier release.
Note:The system may not detect orcorrectly read all speed signs.
Note:If your vehicle has a suspension kitnot approved by us, the system may notcorrectly function.
Note:Always replace headlamp bulbs withthose specifically designed for your vehicle.Other bulbs could reduce systemperformance.

Note:The system remembers the lastsetting when you start your vehicle.
System Display
When the system detects a speed limitsign, the speed limit appears in theinformation display.
Note:If your vehicle has a navigationsystem, stored speed sign data couldinfluence the indicated speed limit value.
To switch the system off or to adjust thesettings, use the touchscreen:
1.Press Settings on the touchscreen.

STEERING
Electric Power Steering
WARNING: The electric powersteering system has diagnostic checksthat continuously monitor the system. Ifa fault is detected, a message displaysin the information display. Stop yourvehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.Switch the ignition off. After at least 10seconds, switch the ignition on andwatch the information display for asteering system warning message. If asteering system warning messagereturns, have the system checked assoon as possible.
WARNING: If the system detectsan error, you may not feel a difference inthe steering, however a serious conditionmay exist. Have your vehicle checked assoon as possible. Failure to do so mayresult in loss of steering control.
If your vehicle loses electrical power whileyou are driving (or if the ignition is turnedoff), you can steer the vehicle manually,but it takes more effort. You must adaptyour speed and driving behavior to reducedsteering assist. Extreme continuoussteering may increase the effort it takesfor you to steer. This occurs to preventinternal overheating and permanentdamage to your steering system. If thisshould occur, you will neither lose theability to steer the vehicle manually norwill it cause permanent damage. Typicalsteering and driving maneuvers will allowthe system to cool down and steeringassist will return to normal.
Steering Tips
If the steering wanders or pulls, check for:
•An improperly inflated tire.
•Uneven tire wear.
•Loose or worn suspensioncomponents.
•Loose or worn steering components.
•Improper vehicle alignment.
A high crown in the road or high crosswindsmay also make the steering seem towander or pull.
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
WARNING: You are responsible forcontrolling your vehicle at all times. Thesystem is designed to be an aid and doesnot relieve you of your responsibility todrive with due care and attention. Failureto follow this instruction could result inthe loss of control of your vehicle,personal injury or death.
WARNING: The system does notdetect vehicles that are driving in adifferent direction, cyclists or animals.Apply the brakes when necessary. Failureto follow this instruction could result inthe loss of control of your vehicle,personal injury or death.
WARNING: The system does notoperate during hard acceleration orsteering. Failure to take care may leadto a crash or personal injury.

Distance Indication and Alert (If
Equipped)
This feature provides the driver with agraphical indication of the time gap toother preceding vehicles traveling in thesame direction. The instrument clusterdisplay screen shows one of the imagesthat follow.
Note:Distance indication and alertdeactivates and the images do not displaywhen adaptive cruise control is active.

Evasive Steering Assist (If Equipped)
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching astationary vehicle or a vehicle traveling inthe same direction as your vehicle, thesystem helps you steer around the vehicle.
The system only activates when all of thefollowing occur:
•The pre-collision assist system detectsa vehicle ahead and starts to applyactive braking.
•You turn the steering wheel in anattempt to steer around the vehicle.

After you turn the steering wheel, thesystem applies additional steering torqueto help you steer around the vehicle. Afteryou pass the vehicle, the system appliessteering torque in the opposite direction toencourage you to steer back into the lane.The system deactivates after you fully passthe vehicle.
Note:The system does not automaticallysteer around a vehicle. If you do not turn thesteering wheel, the system does notactivate.
Note:The system does not activate if thedistance to the vehicle ahead is too smalland you cannot avoid a crash.
Note:The system does not activate forcyclists or pedestrians.
Adjusting the Pre-Collision AssistSettings
Depending on your vehicle options, thepre-collision assist settings can be in thefollowing:
•instrument cluster display. SeeGeneral Information (page 104).
•Touchscreen. See Settings (page 393).
You can adjust the following settings:
•Change alert and distance alertsensitivity to one of three possiblesettings.
•Switch distance indication and alert onor off.
•If required, switch active braking on oroff.
•If required, switch evasive steeringassist on or off.
Note:Active braking and evasive steeringassist turn on every time you switch theignition on.
Note:If you switch active braking off,evasive steering assist turns off.
Blocked Sensors

Radar sensor (if equipped).2
A message appears in the instrumentcluster display when the system detects ablocked sensor, or that there is somethingpreventing the camera images fromappearing. If your vehicle has a radarsensor, it is behind the fascia cover in thecenter of the lower grille. With a blockedsensor or camera, the pre-collision assistsystem cannot properly operate and couldcause reduced performance. The followingtable lists possible causes and actionswhen this message displays.

Heavy rain, spray, snow or fog is interferingwith the radar signals.
The pre-collision assist system is tempor-arily disabled. Pre-collision assist reactiv-ates a short time after the weather condi-tions improve.
Swirling water, snow or ice on the surfaceof the road could interfere with the radarsignals.
Have the radar checked for proper coverageand operation.Radar is out of alignment due to a front-end impact.
Note:Proper system operation requires aclear view of the road by the camera. Haveany windshield damage in the area of thecamera's field of view repaired.
Note:If something hits the front end of yourvehicle or damage occurs and your vehiclehas a radar sensor, the radar sensing zonecould change. This could cause missed orfalse detections. Have the radar checkedfor proper coverage and operation.

WHAT IS G.O.A.T. MODE
CONTROL
Your vehicle has several goes overany-type of terrain (G.O.A.T.) modes thatyou can select for different drivingconditions. Depending on the mode thatyou select, the system adjusts variousvehicle settings.
HOW DOES G.O.A.T. MODE
CONTROL WORK
Each selectable mode changes variouselectronic and mechanical settings withinyour vehicle to tailor its performance anddriving characteristics to on-road oroff-road driving conditions. The systemcan alter steering feel and effort, tractioncontrol, stability control, chassis controls,powertrain response, transmission shiftpoints, four-wheel driveline settings andthe exhaust noise level to apre-determined setting, depending uponthe mode that you select.
Your vehicle reverts to normal mode eachtime you start it.
Note:Your vehicle has diagnostic checksthat continuously monitor all systems forproper operation. If a mode is unavailabledue to a system fault, your vehicle defaultsto normal mode and the driveline remainsin the four-wheel drive setting that you lastselected prior to the system fault.
