WHAT IS ONE PEDAL DRIVE
One pedal drive allows you to accelerate,slow down and stop using only theaccelerator pedal. Pressing the acceleratordown accelerates your vehicle, releasingpressure on the accelerator with your footstill on the pedal slows down your vehicleand releasing the pedal completely allowsyour vehicle to come to a complete stop ifthe road grade is not excessively steep.See One Pedal Drive Precautions (page262).
ONE PEDAL DRIVE
PRECAUTIONS
WARNING: This system is an extradriving aid. It does not replace yourattention and judgment, or the need toapply the brakes. This system does NOTautomatically brake your vehicle. If youfail to press the brake pedal whennecessary, you may collide with anothervehicle.
Shifting into neutral (N) does not hold yourvehicle at a standstill.
Shifting into drive (D) or reverse (R) doesnot cause the vehicle to move if theaccelerator pedal is not pressed.
Note:Always check the transmissionselection before accelerating.
Note:Switch off one pedal drive beforeentering a car wash.
ONE PEDAL DRIVE
LIMITATIONS
One pedal drive is unavailable when anyof the following occur:
•Shifting into an incorrect transmissionposition, such as park (P) when driving.
•Using active park assist.
•Using cruise control.
•Selecting a drive mode other thanengage, whisper, or unbridle. Forexample unbridle extend (GT only)disables one pedal drive.
•Turning off stability control.
Releasing the accelerator pedal may notbring your vehicle to a complete stop onsteep grades.
Increased vehicle load may reduceaccelerator pedal ability to slow thevehicle.

WHAT IS PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST
Pre-collision assist detects and warns ofapproaching hazards in the roadway. Ifyour vehicle is rapidly approaching anotherstationary vehicle, a vehicle traveling in thesame direction as yours, or a pedestrianwithin your driving path, the systemprovides multiple levels of assistance tohelp avoid a collision.
HOW DOES PRE-COLLISION
ASSIST WORK
The system warns the driver of potentialhazards by providing three levels ofassistance.
If your vehicle is rapidly approachingpotential hazards the system provides thefollowing levels of functionality:
1.Alert.
2.Brake Support.
3.Automatic Emergency Braking.
Alert: When active, a flashingvisual warning appears and anaudible warning tone sounds.
Brake Support: The system is designedto help reduce the impact speed bypreparing the brakes for rapid braking. Thesystem does not automatically apply thebrakes. If you press the brake pedal, thesystem could apply additional braking upto maximum braking force, even if youlightly press the brake pedal.
Automatic Emergency Braking:Automatic emergency braking mayactivate if the system determines that acollision is imminent.
Note:If you perceive the pre-collision assistalerts as being too frequent or disturbing,then you can reduce the alert sensitivity.Setting the low sensitivity would result infewer and later warnings of a potentialforward collision. The manufacturerrecommends using the high sensitivitysetting where possible.
Note:Automatic emergency brakingperformance is not affected by thesensitivity setting.
Each system has various levels ofdetection capabilities. See Pre-CollisionAssist Limitations (page 278).
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST
PRECAUTIONS
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.
