WHAT IS THE LANE KEEPING
SYSTEM
The lane keeping system alerts you byproviding temporary steering assistanceor steering wheel vibration when it detectsan unintended lane departure.
HOW DOES THE LANE
KEEPING SYSTEM WORK
The lane keeping system uses a forwardlooking camera mounted on the windshieldto monitor vehicle movement within thetravel lane.
When the camera detects a drift out of thetravel lane, the lane keeping system alertsthe driver by vibrating the steering wheel,or aids the driver by providing a smallsteering input to move the vehicle backinto the travel lane.
The driver can select one of three modes:
•Alert (If Equipped)
•Aid
•Alert + Aid

BLIND SPOT INFORMATIONSYSTEM WITH TRAILERCOVERAGE LIMITATIONS
Trailer coverage only supportsconventional trailers. The system turns offif you select a fifth wheel trailer type.
Make sure the trailer width is less than orequal to 8.5 ft (2.6 m) and the length isless than 33 ft (10.1 m). If you input valueshigher, the system turns off.
Some trailers could cause a slight changein system performance:
•Large box trailers could cause falsealerts to occur when driving next toinfrastructures or near parked cars. Afalse alert could also occur whilemaking a 90-degree turn.
•Trailers that have a width greater than8.5 ft (2.6 m) at the front and have atotal length greater than 20 ft (6 m)could cause delayed alerts when avehicle is passing at high speeds.
•Box trailers that have a width greaterthan 8.5 ft (2.6 m) at the front couldcause early alerts when you pass avehicle.
•Clam shell or v-nose box trailers witha width greater than 8.5 ft (2.6 m) atthe front could cause delayed alertswhen a vehicle traveling the samespeed as your vehicle merges lanes.

You can set-up a trailer to work with theblind spot information system through thetouchscreen. When setting up a trailer, asequence of screens appear asking fortrailer information.
1.Select type of trailer screen -conventional, fifth wheel or gooseneck.
Note:The system only supportsconventional trailers.
2.Do you want to set up blind spot withtrailer screen? If no, the system turnsoff. If yes, the menu goes to the nextscreen.
3.Is the width less than 9 ft (2.7 m) andlength less than 33 ft (10.1 m)? If no,the system turns off. If yes, the menugoes to the next screen.
4.Trailer width measurement. Measurethe width at the front of the trailer. It isnot measured at the widest point ofthe trailer. The maximum width at thefront of the trailer the system cansupport is 8.5 ft (2.6 m).
Note:You do not need to enter an exacttrailer width measurement. You only needto confirm that the width of the trailer is lessthan 9 ft (2.7 m).

WARNING: The system mayoperate with reduced function duringcold and inclement weather conditions.Snow, ice, rain, spray and fog canadversely affect the system. Keep thefront camera and radar free of snow andice. Failure to follow this instruction mayresult in the loss of control of yourvehicle, serious personal injury or death.
WARNING: Take additional care ifyour vehicle is heavily loaded or you aretowing a trailer. These conditions couldresult in reduced performance of thissystem. Failure to follow this instructioncould result in the loss of control of yourvehicle, personal injury or death.
WARNING: The system cannothelp prevent all crashes. Do not rely onthis system to replace driver judgmentand the need to maintain a safe distanceand speed.
WARNING: System performancecould be reduced in situations where thevehicle camera has limited detectioncapability. These situations include butare not limited to direct or low sunlight,vehicles at night without tail lights,unconventional vehicle types,pedestrians or cyclists with complexbackgrounds, running pedestrians or fastmoving cyclists, partly obscuredpedestrians or cyclists, pedestrians orcyclists that the system cannotdistinguish from a group. Failure to takecare may result in the loss of control ofyour vehicle, personal injury or death.
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
LIMITATIONS
Pre-collision assist depends on thedetection ability of its camera and sensors.Any obstructions or damage to these areascan limit detection or prevent the systemfrom functioning. See Locating thePre-Collision Assist Sensors (page 393).
The system is active at 3 mph (5 km/h)and above.
Note:The pre-collision assist systemautomatically disables when you selectfour-wheel drive low, manually disableAdvanceTrac™, or select rock crawl mode,if your vehicle comes with it.
Note:Brake support and automaticemergency braking are active up to themaximum speed of the vehicle.
Pedestrian Detection Limitations
Pedestrian detection is active at speedsup to 50 mph (80 km/h).
Pedestrian detection operates optimallywhen detected hazards are clearlyidentifiable. System performance mayreduce in situations where pedestrians arerunning, partly obscured, have a complexbackground, or when the system cannotdistinguish pedestrians from a group.
Cyclist Detection Limitations
Cyclist detection is active at speeds up to50 mph (80 km/h).
Cyclist detection functions optimally whendetected hazards are clearly identifiable.The system’s detection level may be lessin situations where cyclists are moving fast,partly hidden, have a complex background,or the system cannot distinguish the cyclistfrom a group.

AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY
BRAKING
WHAT IS AUTOMATICEMERGENCY BRAKING
Automatic emergency braking mayactivate if the system determines that acollision is imminent. The system may helpreduce impact damage to avoid the crashcompletely.
Automatic emergency braking is onlyavailable up to certain speeds. SeePre-Collision Assist Limitations (page391).

EVASIVE STEERING ASSIST
WHAT IS EVASIVE STEERINGASSIST
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching a roaduser, defined as another stationary vehiclein your lane or a vehicle traveling in yourlane in the same direction as yours, evasivesteering assist helps you steer around theroad user.
After you turn the steering wheel in anattempt to avoid a crash with the roaduser, the system applies additional steeringtorque to help you steer around the roaduser. After you pass the road user, thesystem applies steering torque when youturn the steering wheel to steer back intothe lane. The system deactivates after youfully pass the road user. SeePre-Collision Assist Precautions (page390).
EVASIVE STEERING ASSISTLIMITATIONS
Evasive steering assist only activates whenall the following occur:
•Active braking and evasive steeringassist are on.
•The system detects a road user aheadand starts to apply the brakes.
•You significantly turn the steeringwheel to steer around a road user.
Note:Evasive steering assist does notautomatically steer around a road user. Ifyou do not turn the steering wheel, evasivesteering assist does not activate.
Note:Evasive steering assist does notactivate if the distance to the road userahead is too small and the system cannotavoid a crash.
Note:Evasive steering assist does notactivate with cyclists or pedestrians.

LOAD CARRYING
PRECAUTIONS
Keep your loaded vehicle weightwithin its design rating capability,with or without a trailer. Properlyloading your vehicle providesmaximum return of vehicle designperformance. Before you load yourvehicle, become familiar with thefollowing terms for determiningyour vehicle’s weight rating, withor without a trailer, from thevehicle’s Tire and LoadingInformation label or SafetyCompliance Certification label.
WARNING: Vehicles witha higher center of gravity (utilityand four-wheel drive vehicles)handle differently than vehicleswith a lower center of gravity(passenger cars). Avoid sharpturns, excessive speed andabrupt steering in these vehicles.Failure to drive cautiouslyincreases the risk of losingcontrol of your vehicle, vehiclerollover, personal injury anddeath.
WARNING: Theappropriate loading capacity ofyour vehicle can be limited eitherby volume capacity (how muchspace is available) or by payloadcapacity (how much weight thevehicle should carry). Once youhave reached the maximum
payload of your vehicle, do notadd more cargo, even if there isspace available. Overloading orimproperly loading your vehiclecan contribute to loss of vehiclecontrol and vehicle rollover.
WARNING: Exceeding theSafety Compliance Certificationlabel vehicle weight limits canadversely affect theperformance and handling ofyour vehicle, cause vehicledamage and can result in theloss of control of your vehicle,serious personal injury or death.
WARNING: Do not usereplacement tires with lowerload carrying capacities than the
original tires because they maylower your vehicle's GVWR andGAWR limitations. Replacementtires with a higher limit than theoriginal tires do not increase theGVWR and GAWR limitations.
WARNING: Do not exceedthe GVWR or the GAWRspecified on the certificationlabel.
WARNING: Exceeding anyvehicle weight rating canadversely affect theperformance and handling ofyour vehicle, cause vehicledamage and can result in theloss of control of your vehicle,serious personal injury or death.
