146STARTING AND OPERATING
LANE CHANGING
ACC may not detect a vehicle until it is completely in the
lane in which you are traveling. In the following lane
changing example, ACC has not yet detected the vehicle
changing lanes and it may not detect the vehicle until it's
too late for the ACC system to take action. ACC may not
detect a vehicle until it is completely in the lane. There
may not be sufficient distance to the lane-changing
vehicle. Always be attentive and ready to apply the brakes
if necessary.
Lane Changing Example
NARROW VEHICLES
Some narrow vehicles traveling near the outer edges of
the lane or edging into the lane are not detected until they
have moved fully into the lane. There may not be sufficient
distance to the vehicle ahead.
Narrow Vehicle Example
STATIONARY OBJECTS AND VEHICLES
ACC does not react to stationary objects or vehicles. For
example, ACC will not react in situations where the vehicle
you are following exits your lane and the vehicle ahead is
stopped in your lane. It will consider this stopped vehicle a
stationary object as it did not previously detect movement
from it. Always be attentive and ready to apply the brakes
if necessary.
Stationary Object And Stationary Vehicle Example
TRAFFIC SIGN ASSIST SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
The Traffic Sign Assist (TSA) system uses a camera
mounted on the windshield, as well as map data when the
vehicle is equipped with Navigation, to detect
recognizable road signs such as:
Speed limits
School zones
No passing zones
23_WS_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 146
STARTING AND OPERATING147
NOTE:
The TSA system will automatically display the
detected road sign using the unit of measurement
(mph or km/h) selected within Uconnect Settings, or
within the instrument cluster display.
If no speed limit signs are detected, the system will
revert to the speed limit signs that are stored in the
Navigation system.
The system always checks the traffic signs indicating
the current speed limit. The system is able to recognize
and display up to two different road signs in the instru -
ment cluster display. These road signs can be found on
the Driver Assist page.
ACTIVATION/DEACTIVATION
The TSA System can be enabled/disabled within the
Uconnect system through the Safety/Driver Assistance
menu. System ON is signaled by road signs shown on the
instrument cluster display.
NOTE:Even if the system is OFF, the speed limit sign will be
displayed when the driver selects it in the HOME screen.
TRAFFIC SIGN ASSIST MODES
TSA has three selectable modes of operation that are
available through the Uconnect system Úpage 197.
Visual
When Visual is selected, the system will alert the driver
when the current speed of the vehicle exceeds the
detected speed limit by showing a graphic in the
instrument cluster display. Visual + Chime
When Visual + Chime is selected, the system will alert the
driver when the current speed of the vehicle exceeds the
detected speed limit by showing a graphic in the
instrument cluster display and by sounding an audible
alert. The audible alert will last for 10 seconds, and the
visual alert will remain on as long as the vehicle is
exceeding the speed limit.
TSA Off
When the TSA system is turned off, the system will not
show any traffic signs (unless selected in the HOME
screen, which will show detected speed limit signs), and
no alerts will be issued to the driver.
INDICATIONS ON THE DISPLAY
Detected traffic signs are shown in the instrument cluster
display, and can display any combination of signs at one
time (e.g. speed limit, speed limit and supplemental info,
and “Do Not Pass” signs) depending on what information
is available.
When a newly detected speed limit is higher than the
current speed limit, the display will update along with an
up arrow.
When a newly detected speed limit is lower than the
current speed limit, the display will update along with a
down arrow.
NOTE:Up or down arrows will be displayed for up to five seconds.
Traffic Signs Recognized
Supplemental Information
Supplemental information may be displayed, along with a
newly detected speed limit, indicating special
circumstances of which the driver should be aware.
Available supplemental information includes:
School
Construction
Rain
Snow
Fog
NOTE:Supplemental information will not be displayed when the
vehicle is ONLY equipped with GPS.1 — Current Speed Limit With Supplemental Information
(School Zone)
2 — Next Speed Limit Detected
3 — No Passing Zone Detected

170STARTING AND OPERATING
NOTE:
The Active Lane Management system operates with
similar behavior for a right lane departure.
If the turn signal is activated, and the vehicle begins to
depart the lane at the same time the Blind Spot Moni -
toring (BSM) system detects another vehicle in the
BSM zones, the system will provide haptic steering
wheel vibration and/or steering assist torque (if
programmed in Uconnect Settings).

Vibration And Steering Assist
Other configurable settings for this system are for the
intensity of the vibration (high/med/low), steering assist
strength (hi/med/low), and the warning zone sensitivity
(early/medium/late).
NOTE:
The system will not apply vibration and/or steering
assist to the steering wheel whenever a safety system
engages (Anti-Lock Brakes, Traction Control System,
Electronic Stability Control, Forward Collision Warning,
etc.).
The Blind Spot Monitoring system will be forced on
when the ALM system is enabled.
The ALM system will be suppressed when the Active
Driving Assist system (if equipped) is engaged.
PARKVIEW REAR BACK UP CAMERA
Your vehicle is equipped with the ParkView Rear Back Up
Camera that allows you to see an on-screen image of the
rear surroundings of your vehicle whenever the gear
selector is put into REVERSE. The image will be displayed
on the Navigation/Multimedia radio display screen along
with a caution note to “Check Entire Surroundings” across
the top of the screen. After five seconds this note will
disappear. The ParkView camera is located on the rear of
the vehicle above the rear license plate.
When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with camera
delay turned off, the rear camera mode is exited and the
previous screen appears.
Manual Activation Of The Back Up Camera

the Uconnect display and then select the Controls
menu.
2. Press the Back Up Camera icon to turn the Rear View Camera system on.

mable modes of operation that may be selected
through the Uconnect system
Úpage 197. When the vehicle is shifted out of REVERSE with camera
delay turned off, the rear camera mode is exited and the
previous screen appears. When the vehicle is shifted out
of REVERSE with camera delay turned on, the camera
image will continue to be displayed for up to 10 seconds
unless the following conditions occur: the vehicle speed
exceeds 8 mph (13 km/h), the vehicle is shifted into
PARK, the vehicle’s ignition is placed in the OFF position,
or the touchscreen X button to disable the display of the
Rear View Camera is pressed.
When enabled, active guidelines are overlaid on the image
to illustrate the width of the vehicle and its projected back
up path based on the steering wheel position. A dashed
center line overlay indicates the center of the vehicle to
assist with parking or aligning to a hitch/receiver.
Different colored zones indicate the distance to the rear of
the vehicle.
The following table shows the approximate distances for
each zone:
Zone Distance To The Rear Of The
Vehicle
Red 0 - 1 ft
(0 - 30 cm)
Yellow 1 ft - 6.5 ft
(30 cm - 2 m)
Green 6.5 ft or greater
(2 m or greater)
