WARNING!
The Active Driving Assist (ADA) system is a
convenience system. It is not a substitute for
active driver involvement. It is always the driver’s
responsibility to be attentive of road traffic,
weather conditions, vehicle speed, distance to
the vehicle ahead, position in the lane compared
to other vehicles, and brake operation to ensure
safe operation of the vehicle under all road
conditions. Your complete attention is always
required while driving to maintain safe control of
your vehicle. Failure to follow these warnings can
result in a collision and death or serious
personal injury.
Some states and local laws may require hands
to be kept on the steering wheel at all times. For
vehicles equipped with the Hands-Free ADA
system, ONLY remove your hands from the
steering wheel if the Hands-Free system is
engaged, it is safe to do so, and it is permitted by
state and local laws.
You should turn off the Active Driving Assist
systems:
When driving in complex driving situations
(e.g. urban environments, construction zones,
etc.), adverse weather or low visibility condi -
tions (e.g. rain, snow, fog, sleet, dust), or
adverse road conditions (e.g. heavy traffic,
worn or missing lane markings, etc.).
When entering a highway on-ramp or exiting
an off-ramp.
When driving on roads that are icy, snow
covered, or slippery.
When driving during difficult or uncertain
conditions.
WARNING!

PARKSENSE FRONT/REAR PARK ASSIST
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The ParkSense Park Assist system provides visual
and audible indications of the distance between
the rear, and if equipped, the front fascia/bumper
and a detected obstacle when backing up or
moving forward (e.g. during a parking maneuver).
The vehicle brakes may be automatically applied
and released when performing a reverse parking
maneuver if the system detects a possible collision
with an obstacle.
NOTE:
The driver can disable the automatic braking
function by turning ParkSense off via the
ParkSense switch. The driver can also override
automatic braking by changing the gear or by
pressing the gas pedal over 90% of its capacity
during the braking event.
Automatic brakes are not available if the vehicle
is in 4WD Low.
Automatic brakes will not be available if there is
a faulted condition detected with the ParkSense
Park Assist system or the Braking System
Module.
The automatic braking function may only be
applied if the vehicle deceleration is not enough
to avoid colliding with a detected obstacle.
The automatic braking function may not be
applied fast enough for obstacles that move
toward the rear of the vehicle from the left and/
or right sides.
The automatic braking function can be
enabled/disabled from the Customer Program -
mable Features section of the Uconnect system.
ParkSense will retain its last known configura -
tion state for the automatic braking function
through ignition cycles.
The automatic braking function is intended to
assist the driver in avoiding possible collisions with
detected obstacles when backing up in REVERSE
gear.
NOTE:
The system is designed to assist the driver and
not to substitute the driver.
The driver must stay in full control of the
vehicle's acceleration and braking and is
responsible for the vehicle's movements.

23_WL_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 159

STARTING AND OPERATING167
NOTE:
The driver is always responsible for controlling
the vehicle, responsible for any surrounding
objects, and must intervene as required.
The system is designed to assist the driver and
not to substitute the driver.
During a semi-automatic maneuver, if the driver
touches the steering wheel after being
instructed to remove their hands from the
steering wheel, the system will cancel, and the
driver will be required to manually complete the
parking maneuver.
The system may not work in all conditions (e.g.
environmental conditions such as heavy rain,
snow, etc., or if searching for a parking space
that has surfaces that will absorb the ultrasonic
sensor waves).
New vehicles from the dealership must have at
least 30 miles (48 km) accumulated before the
ParkSense Active Park Assist system is fully cali -
brated and performs accurately. This is due to
the system’s dynamic vehicle calibration to
improve the performance of the feature. The
system will also continuously perform the
dynamic vehicle calibration to account for differ -
ences such as over or under inflated tires and
new tires.

RECOMMENDED DISTRIBUTION HITCH
ADJUSTMENT

1. Verify that the vehicle is at the Normal Ride
Height.

NOTE:The vehicle must remain in the engine run position
with all doors closed while attaching a trailer for
proper leveling of the air suspension system.
2. Position the vehicle to be ready to connect to the trailer (do not connect the trailer). 3. For vehicles equipped with Quadra-Lift air
suspension, use the touchscreen radio
settings to enable Tire/Jack mode. Tire/Jack
mode will be canceled and the procedure must
be restarted if the vehicle is driven at speeds
above 5mph (8 km/h).
4. Measure the height from the top of the front wheel opening on the fender to ground; this is
height H1.

Measuring Height (H)

5. Attach the trailer to the vehicle without the weight distribution bars connected.
6. Measure the height from the top of the front wheel opening on the fender to the ground;
this is height H2. 7. Install and adjust the tension in the weight
distributing bars per the manufacturer’s
recommendations so that the height of the
front fender is approximately (H2-H1)/2+H1
(about 1/2 the difference between H2 and H1
above Normal Ride Height [H1]).
8. Use the touchscreen radio settings and switch off Tire/Jack mode. Make sure the truck
returns to Normal Ride Height. Perform a
visual inspection of the trailer and
weight-distributing hitch to confirm the
manufacturers’ recommendations have been
met.
9. The vehicle can now be driven.
An improperly adjusted weight-distributing
hitch system may reduce handling, stability,
braking performance, and could result in a
collision.
Weight-distributing systems may not be
compatible with surge brake couplers. Consult
with your hitch and trailer manufacturer or a
reputable Recreational Vehicle dealer for
additional information.
