STARTING AND OPERATING 93
ACTIVE GRILLE SHUTTERS — IF EQUIPPED
Your vehicle may be equipped with Active Grille
Shutters. Active Grille Shutters is an automatic
system with mobile flaps applied in front of the
cooling module that aims to improve vehicle
aerodynamic efficiency with its automatic
opening/closing movement. The opening/closing
movement of the Active Grill Shutters reduces
consumption while ensuring optimal engine
operating temperature conditions.
When a greater air flow is required for cooling (e.g.
when d

riving in urban traffic) the flaps open,
whereas when temperature is low or air flow is
enough (example when driving on highways), the
flaps close.
POWER STEERING
The electric power steering system will provide
increased vehicle response and ease of
maneuverability. The power steering system
adapts to different driving conditions. If the “SERVICE POWER STEERING” OR “POWER
STEER
I

NG ASSIST OFF - SERVICE SYSTEM”
message and a steering wheel icon are displayed
on the instrument cluster screen, it indicates that
the vehicle needs to be taken to the dealer for
service. It is likely the vehicle has lost power
steering assistance Ú page 64.
NOTE:
Even if the power steering assistance is no
longer operational, it is still possible to steer the
vehicle. Under these conditions there will be a
substantial increase in steering effort, espe
-
cially at low speeds and during parking maneu -
vers.
If the condition persists, see an authorized
dealer for service.
STOP/START SYSTEM
The Stop/Start function was developed to reduce
fuel consumption. The system will stop the engine
automatically during a vehicle stop if the required
conditions are met. Releasing the brake pedal or
pressing the accelerator pedal will automatically
restart the engine.
AUTOSTOP MODE
The Stop/Start feature is enabled after every
normal customer engine start. At that time, the
system will go into STOP/START READY and if all
other conditions are met, can go into a STOP/
START AUTOSTOP ACTIVE “Autostop” mode.
To Activate The Autostop Mode, The Following
Must O

ccur:
The system must be in STOP/START READY
state. A STOP/START READY message will be
displayed in the instrument cluster display
within the Stop/Start section Ú page 64.
The vehicle must be completely stopped.
The gear selector must be in a forward gear and
the brake pedal pressed.
The engine will shut down, the tachometer will
move to
the zero position and the Stop/Start
telltale will illuminate indicating you are in
Autostop. Customer settings will be maintained
upon return to an engine running condition.
WARNING!
Continued operation with reduced assist could
pose a safety risk to yourself and others. Service
should be obtained as soon as possible.

STARTING AND OPERATING 105
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/or front fascia and a detected
obstacle when backing up or moving forward (e.g.
during a parking maneuver).
For limitations of this system and
recomm e

ndations, see Ú page 108.
ParkSense will retain the last system state
( enabl

ed or disabled) from the last ignition cycle
when the ignition is changed to the ON/RUN
position.
ParkSense is active when the gear selector is
shifte
d to REVERSE or to a forward gear and an
obstacle is detected, as long as the system is on.
When the gear selector is shifted to NEUTRAL (or
PARK in case of automatic gearbox), the system
becomes inactive. When the vehicle is moving
forward, the system will remain active until the
vehicle speed remains below approximately
11 mph (18 km/h). Reducing the speed
approx i

mately below 9 mph (15 km/h), the system
will c
ome back active. When the vehicle is moving
in REVERSE, the system will remain active as long
as the speed remains below the maximum
operating speed of 7 mph (11 km/h). When the
maximu

m speed limit is exceeded, the system is
disabled and the ParkSense switch LED with illuminate. The system will become active again if
the vehicle speed reduces below approximately
6
mph (9 km/h).
PARKSENSE SENSORS
On vehicles equipped with both Front and Rear
ParkSense, there are six sensors located in the
rear fascia/bumper. Vehicles only equipped with
Rear ParkSense have four sensors located in the
rear fascia/bumper.
The sensors monitor the area behind the vehicle
that i

s within the sensors’ field of view. The sensors
can detect obstacles from approximately
12 inches (30 cm) up to 59 inches (150 cm) from
the r e

ar fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction,
depending on the location, type and orientation of
the obstacle.
NOTE:
For information on ParkSense Active Park Assist,
see Ú p
age 111 .
The six ParkSense sensors, located in the front
f ascia

/bumper, monitor the area in front of the
vehicle that is within the sensors’ field of view. The
sensors can detect obstacles from approximately
12 inches (30 cm) up to 39 inches (100 cm) from
the fr

ont fascia/bumper in the horizontal direction,
depending on the location, type and orientation of
the obstacle.
PARKSENSE WARNING DISPLAY
The ParkSense Warning screen will only be
displayed if “Sound and Display” is selected from
the Customer - Programmable Features section of
the Uconnect system Ú page 133.
The ParkSense Warning screen is located within
t he in

strument cluster display Ú page 64. It
provides visual warnings to indicate the distance
b etwee

n the rear fascia/bumper and/or front
fascia/bumper and the detected obstacle.
PARKSENSE DISPLAY
The warning display will turn on indicating the
system status when the vehicle is in REVERSE or
when the vehicle is in DRIVE and an obstacle has
been detected.
The system will indicate a detected obstacle by
showing
a single arc in the left and/or right front or
rear regions based on the object’s distance and
location relative to the vehicle.
If an object is detected in the left and/or right rear
region,
the display will show a single arc in the left
and/or right rear region and the system will
produce a tone. As the vehicle moves closer to the
object, the display will show the single arc moving
closer to the vehicle, and the audible chime will
increase as the object gets closer to the vehicle.

108 STARTING AND OPERATING
Front Park Assist Audible Alerts
ParkSense will turn off the Front Park Assist
audib l

e alert (chime) after approximately three
seconds when an obstacle has been detected, and
the vehicle is stationary. If the obstacle has been
detected within less than 12 inches (30 cm), then
the Pa

rksense will not turn off the Front Park Assist
audible alert.
Adjustable Chime Volume Settings
Front and Rear chime volume settings can be
s elect

ed from the Customer-Programmable
Features section of the Uconnect system
Ú page 133.
If the Uconnect system is equipped, chime volume
s ettin

gs will not be accessible from the instrument
cluster display.
The chime volume settings include low, medium,
and h i

gh. The factory default volume setting is
medium.
ParkSense will retain its last known configuration
state

through ignition cycles.

page 64 will show the “ParkSense Disabled”
message for approximately five seconds.
The ParkSense switch LED turns on when the
s yste m

is disabled by pushing the switch, as well
as in case of failure or temporary disabling
conditions. The ParkSense switch LED will be off
when the system is enabled. If the ParkSense
switch is pushed, and requires service, the
ParkSense switch LED will blink momentarily, and
then the LED will be on.
SERVICE THE PARKSENSE PARK ASSIST
S
YSTEM
When the ParkSense System has detected a
faulted condition, the instrument cluster display
will actuate a single chime, and it will show the
"PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE REAR
SENSORS", "PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE
FRONT SENSORS", or the "PARKSENSE
UNAVAILABLE SERVICE REQUIRED" message for
five seconds. Under this condition, ParkSense will
not operate.
If "PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE REAR
SENSO R

S" or "PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE WIPE
FRONT SENSORS" appears in the instrument
cluster display make sure the outer surface and
the underside of the rear fascia/bumper and/or
front fascia/bumper is clean and clear of snow,
ice, mud, dirt or other obstruction and then cycle the ignition. If the message continues to appear
see an authorized dealer.
If the "PARKSENSE UNAVAILABLE SERVICE
REQUI
R

ED" message appears in the instrument
cluster display, see an authorized dealer.
CLEANING THE PARKSENSE SYSTEM
Clean the ParkSense sensors with water, car wash
soap and a soft cloth. Do not use rough or hard
cloths. Do not scratch or poke the sensors.
Otherwise, you could damage the sensors.
PARKSENSE SYSTEM USAGE
P
RECAUTIONS
NOTE:
Ensure that the front and rear fascia/bumper
are free of snow, ice, mud, dirt and debris to
keep the ParkSense system operating properly.
Construction equipment, large trucks, and other
vibrations could affect the performance of Park -
Sense.
When you turn ParkSense off, the instrument
cluster display will read “PARKSENSE OFF.”
Furthermore, once you turn ParkSense off, it
remains off until you turn it on again, even if you
cycle the ignition key.
ParkSense, when on, will reduce the volume of
the radio when it is sounding a tone.

STARTING AND OPERATING 111
Clean the ParkSense sensors regularly, taking
care not to scratch or damage them. The
sensors must not be covered with ice, snow,
slush, mud, dirt or debris. Failure to do so can
result in the system not working properly. The
ParkSense system might not detect an obstacle
behind or in front of the fascia/bumper, or it
could provide a false indication that an obstacle
is behind or in front of the fascia/bumper.
The presence of a tow hook without a trailer may
interfere with the correct operation of the
parking sensors. Before using the ParkSense
system, it is recommended to remove the
removable tow hook ball assembly and any
attachments from the vehicle when it is not
used for towing operations. If you wish to leave
the tow hook fitted when not towing a trailer,
contact your authorized dealer for the Park
-
Sense system operations update because the
tow hook

could be detected as an obstacle by
the sensors.

PARKSENSE ACTIVE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED

The ParkSense Active Park Assist system is
intended to assist the driver during parallel,
perpendicular, and parallel park exit maneuvers by
identifying a proper parking space, providing
audible/visual instructions, and controlling the
steering wheel. The ParkSense Active Park Assist
system is defined as “semi-automatic” since the
driver maintains control of the accelerator, gear
selector and brakes. Depending on the driver's
parking maneuver selection, the ParkSense Active
Park Assist system is capable of maneuvering a
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when backing up even
when using ParkSense. Always check carefully
behind your vehicle, look behind you, and be
sure to check for pedestrians, animals, other
vehicles, obstructions, and blind spots before
backing up. You are responsible for safety and
must continue to pay attention to your
surroundings. Failure to do so can result in
serious injury or death.
Before using ParkSense, it is strongly recom -
mended that the ball mount and hitch ball
assem b
ly be disconnected from the vehicle
when the vehicle is not used for towing.
Failure to do so can result in injury or damage
to vehicles or obstacles because the hitch ball
will be much closer to the obstacle than the
rear fascia when the vehicle sounds the
continuous tone. Also, the sensors could
detect the ball mount and hitch ball assembly,
depending on its size and shape, giving a false
indication that an obstacle is behind the
vehicle.
CAUTION!
ParkSense is only a parking aid and it is
unable to recognize every obstacle, including
small obstacles. Parking curbs might be
temporarily detected or not detected at all.
Obstacles located above or below the sensors
will not be detected when they are in close
proximity.
The vehicle must be driven slowly when using
ParkSense in order to be able to stop in time
when an obstacle is detected. It is recom -
mended that the driver looks over his/her
should e

r when using ParkSense.
