The cruise control indicatorreplaces the adaptive cruisecontrol indicator if you selectnormal cruise control. The gap settingdoes not display, and the system does notrespond to lead vehicles. Automaticbraking remains active to maintain setspeed. The system remembers the lastsetting when you start your vehicle.
LANE CENTERING
HOW DOES LANE CENTERINGWORK
Adaptive cruise control with lane centeringuses the vehicle's front radar sensor andfront windshield camera sensor, togetherwith the steering sensor to operate.
Using these sensors, the system appliescontinuous steering assistance towardsdriving in the middle of the lane you chooseon highway roads.
Note:The gap setting for adaptive cruisecontrol with lane centering, operates in thesame way as normal adaptive cruise control.
LANE CENTERING PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: Do not use the systemwhen towing a trailer. Failure to followthis instruction could result in the loss ofcontrol of your vehicle, personal injury ordeath.
WARNING: Do not use the systemif any changes or modifications to thesteering wheel have been made. Anychanges or modifications to the steeringwheel could affect the functionality orperformance of the system. Failure tofollow this instruction could result in theloss of control of your vehicle, personalinjury or death.
Adaptive cruise control precautions applyto lane centering unless stated otherwiseor contradicted by a lane centeringprecaution. See Adaptive Cruise ControlPrecautions (page 342).
LANE CENTERINGREQUIREMENTS
You must keep your hands on the steeringwheel at all times.
The system only activates when all of thefollowing occur:
•You have adaptive cruise control withstop and go on.
•Lane centering assist is enabled in yourinformation and entertainment screen.See Switching Lane Centering Onand Off (page 350).
•You have your hands on the steeringwheel.
•The system detects both lanemarkings.
Note:If it does not detect valid lanemarkings, the system stays inactive untilvalid markings are available.
LANE CENTERING LIMITATIONS
Adaptive cruise control limitations applyto lane centering unless stated otherwiseor contradicted by a lane centeringlimitation. See Adaptive Cruise ControlLimitations (page 343).

Automatic cancellation can also occur if:
•The lane becomes too wide or narrow.
•The system cannot detect valid lanemarkings.
•Lane markings cross over one another.
•The curve of the road is too sharp.
Note:If your vehicle slows down due to yourinactivity twice within a key cycle, thesystem disables. To reset the system, whenthe vehicle is stationary, return the gearselector to park (P) and turn the vehicle off.Then, restart the vehicle with your foot onthe brake pedal.
LANE CENTERING MANUALCANCELLATION
When you perform the following actions,adaptive cruise control with lane centeringwill cancel:
•The brake pedal is pressed.
•Adaptive cruise control button isswitched off on the steering wheel.
The lane centering system is momentarilysuppressed when either of the followingactions are performed:
•Turn signal indicator is latched ortapped.
•You steer the vehicle out of lane.
LANE CENTERING INDICATORS
Illuminates when you switchlane centering on. The color ofthe indicator changes to indicatethe system status.
Gray status indicates the system is on butin standby mode.
Green status indicates the system isenabled and applying steering assistanceto keep the vehicle in the center of the lane.
Amber status with an audible tone, thatthen changes to gray status, indicates asystem automatic cancellation.
PREDICTIVE SPEED ASSIST
HOW DOES PREDICTIVE SPEEDASSIST WORK
Predictive Speed Assist works withadaptive cruise control and adjusts thevehicle speed to the road geometry and tothe speed limit detected by the speed signrecognition system. As the systemidentifies curves and highway exits, thevehicle speed temporarily decreases aheadof and during the changing road geometry.When passing new speed signs, the setspeed updates. See Predictive SpeedAssist Precautions (page 351).
There are limitations that affect theaccuracy of the speed sign recognitionsystem and its ability to determine thecurrent speed limit. Predictive speed assistand its ability to determine the currentspeed limit shares these limitations. SeeSpeed Sign Recognition (page 401).
Note:The adaptive cruise control gapsetting operates normally when the featureis enabled.

WARNING: Pay close attention tochanging road conditions. You may needto override the system by pressing thebrake or accelerator pedal if the adjustedspeed becomes higher or lower thannecessary.
WARNING: The system onlyprovides limited braking. Your vehiclemay not always decelerate quicklyenough to avoid a crash without driverintervention. Apply the brakes whennecessary.
WARNING: The system does notactivate the turn signal.
Adaptive cruise control precautions applyto predictive speed assist unless statedotherwise or contradicted by a predictivespeed assist precaution. See AdaptiveCruise Control Precautions (page 342).
The system only applies limited braking.You can override the system with theaccelerator pedal or cancel the system byapplying the brakes.
The system may adapt to various factorssuch as time of day, lane width. This couldinfluence speed adjustments andaccelerations.
The system may adapt to various drivemodes. See Drive Mode Control (page362).This could influence speedadjustments and accelerations.
Note:The system does not activate theturn signal automatically.
PREDICTIVE SPEED ASSISTLIMITATIONS
WARNING: The system may notalways adjust vehicle speed in certainroad or weather conditions such ascrossing traffic, yield or stop signs, rightof way, traffic lights, speed bumps, rain,snow, fog. You must always apply thebrake or accelerator pedal whennecessary.
The road geometry and speed limitinformation provided by the navigationmap data could be inaccurate or out ofdate.
The system may not detect and readspeed limit signs with conditionalinformation, for example, when a sign isflashing, during specific time ranges, orwhen children are present.
Note:The system does not set the vehiclespeed to speed limits shown with asupplementary traffic sign.
Under certain conditions, the system maynot adjust the vehicle speed until after yourvehicle passes the speed limit.
Detection of road geometry operates onlywhere related information is available.Road geometry information may not beavailable in some areas.

WHAT IS BLUECRUISE
BlueCruise keeps your vehicle centered inthe lane and offers a hands-free drivingmode in certain situations when usingadaptive cruise control.
HOW DOES BLUECRUISE
WORK
BlueCruise uses cameras to monitor yourvehicle position within a lane and appliessteering support to keep your vehiclecentered in the lane.
Using the cameras and locationinformation, BlueCruise allows you toremove your hands from the steering wheeland offers a hands-free driving mode incertain areas.
When active, BlueCruise uses a driverfacing camera and infrared lighting tomonitor your eyes and head position todetect if you are distracted. If the systemdetermines you are distracted, it alerts youto return your eyes to the road.

WHAT IS DRIVE MODE
CONTROL
Your vehicle has various drive modes thatyou can select for different drivingconditions. Depending on the drive modethat you select, the system adjusts variousvehicle settings.
HOW DOES DRIVE MODE
CONTROL WORK
Selectable drive modes change variouselectronic and mechanical settings withinyour vehicle to tailor its performance anddriving characteristics to on-road oroff-road driving conditions. Steering feeland effort, traction control, stabilitycontrol, chassis controls, powertrainresponse, transmissions shift points,four-wheel driveline setting, exhaust noiselevel and suspension dampening areautomatically altered to a pre-determinedsetting depending upon the drive modethat is selected.
Note:Your vehicle has diagnostic checksthat continuously monitor all systems forproper operation. If a drive mode isunavailable due to a system fault, yourvehicle defaults to normal mode and thedriveline remains in the four-wheel drivesetting that was last selected prior to thesystem fault.
Note:Your vehicle reverts to normal modeeach time it is started. If you shut yourvehicle off in a drive mode other thannormal mode, at startup the instrumentcluster screen displays a pop-up asking ifyou would like to return to your last useddrive mode. If you select yes to the pop-up,your vehicle returns to the last selected drivemode and the default four-wheel drivelinesetting associated with that drive mode. Ifyou select no, your vehicle remains in normalmode and the default four-wheel drivelinesetting associated with that drive mode. Ifyou do not select yes or no the pop upmessage times out, your vehicle remains innormal mode, and the four-wheel drivelinesetting remains in its last used setting.
