152STARTING AND OPERATING
INDICATIONS ON THE DISPLAY
The Active Driving Assist system status can always be
viewed in the instrument cluster display, and status
changes are shown by changes in color of the system’s
indicator lights.
As the system detects driver inattentiveness as previously
described
Úpage 148, the system status indicator lights
will change from green, to yellow, to red. The following
indicators will change in color as warnings to the driver
escalate:
Active Driving Assist Indicator (steering wheel icon in
the instrument cluster display or Head Up Display
[if equipped])
Glow effect of the instrument cluster display
For Hands-Free ADA only, light strips in the driver and
front passenger’s door panels (red and green only)
For Base ADA, if driver attention is not returned, the
system will deactivate.
For Hands-Free ADA, if driver attention is not returned, the
system will perform a Stop-In-Lane maneuver. Once the
vehicle is at a standstill, the vehicle will be shifted to PARK
and the Electric Park Brake (EPB) will be applied. Then, the
vehicle will attempt to place an emergency call through
the Assist and SOS system. If too many Stop-In-Lane
maneuvers are initiated, or if one is completed, the system
will be unavailable until the ignition is cycled OFF, then
back to ON. Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Off
ADA is not turned on/enabled by the driver.
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are White
ADA is turned on/enabled by the driver, but the system
is not actively steering and providing speed control for
the vehicle.
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Green
System is actively steering and providing speed control
for the vehicle and the system detects driver is atten -
tive.
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Yellow
Driver inattentiveness has been detected, warning the
driver to place hands on the steering wheel, or look
back toward the road (if equipped with the Hands-Free
system).
Active Driving Assist Indicators Are Red
Driver inattentiveness is still being detected, or driver
take-over is being requested, warning the driver to
place hands on the steering wheel, or if equipped with
the Hands-Free system, take control of the vehicle.
NOTE:For both Base ADA and Hands-Free ADA, the driver MUST
replace hands on the steering wheel and take control of
the vehicle when the system is deactivated.

NOTE:If damage to the windshield occurs, have the windshield
replaced by an authorized dealer as soon as possible.
WARNING!
Active Driving Assist is an SAE Level 2 Driver Assist
feature, requiring driver attention at all times. To
prevent serious injury or death:
Always remember that the Active Driving Assist
system is a convenience system that cannot accu -
rately detect all situations. Complete attention is
always required while driving, even when using the
Active Driving Assist system.
Always remain alert and be ready to take control of
the vehicle in the event that the Active Driving Assist
system deactivates, or otherwise lacks full function -
ality as described further before and after this
statement.
Always keep your hands on the steering wheel when
the Base Active Driving Assist system is activated.
Always keep your eyes on the road when the
Hands-Free Active Driving Assist system is activated.
Maintain a safe distance from other vehicles and pay
attention to traffic conditions.
Do not use a hand held device when either Base or
Hands-Free Active Driving Assist system is engaged.
Always pay attention to the road when the
Hands-Free Active Driving Assist system is engaged.
The Active Driving Assist system will not steer to
avoid safety hazards, construction zones, objects, or
road impediments. You need to take control to steer
and brake the vehicle in such situations, and when
merging into traffic, exiting the highway, making a
turn for crossing traffic, or stopping for traffic control
devices.
Do not place any objects on the steering wheel (e.g.
steering wheel covers) which could interfere with the
hand detection sensors.
WARNING!

STARTING AND OPERATING163
(Continued)
The system will then instruct the driver to remove hands
from the steering wheel and feet from the pedals. This
screen will be shown for a minimum of two seconds, or
until the driver releases the brake pedal.
When the parking sequence is initiated by the driver after
the previously described conditions are met, the Uconnect
system will display a Top View along with either a rear
camera view (if the vehicle is placed in REVERSE) or a
forward camera view (if the vehicle is placed in DRIVE).
The Top View will have integrated ParkSense arcs in the
image at the front and rear of the vehicle. The arcs will
change color from yellow to red corresponding the
distance zones to the oncoming object.
The system will then perform the parking maneuver. Once
the maneuver is complete, the vehicle will automatically
shift into PARK.
The system will display a “Complete!” message and
instruct the driver to release the Active Park Assist switch.
Once the Active Park Assist switch is released, a chime will
sound and the LED on the switch will turn off. After
approximately five seconds, the previous Uconnect screen
will display.
NOTE:
It is the driver's responsibility to use the brake and stop
the vehicle. The driver should check their surroundings
and be prepared to stop the vehicle either when
instructed to, or when driver intervention is required.
When the system instructs the driver to remove their
hands from the steering wheel, the driver should check
their surroundings and begin to back up slowly.
The system will cancel the maneuver if the vehicle
speed exceeds 28 mph (40 km/h) during active
steering guidance into the parking space. The system
will provide a warning to the driver at 28 mph
(40 km/h) that tells them to slow down. The driver is
then responsible for completing the maneuver if the
system is canceled.
If the system is canceled during the maneuver for any
reason, the driver must take control of the vehicle.
WARNING!
Drivers must be careful when performing parallel or
perpendicular parking maneuvers even when using
the ParkSense Active Park Assist system. Always
check carefully behind and in front of your vehicle,
look behind and in front of you, and be sure to check
for pedestrians, animals, other vehicles, obstruc -
tions, and blind spots before backing up and moving
forward. 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 the ParkSense Active Park Assist
system, it is strongly recommended that the ball
mount and hitch ball assembly be disconnected from
the vehicle when the vehicle is not used for towing.
Failure to do so can result in injury or damage to vehi -
cles or obstacles because the hitch ball will be much
closer to the obstacle than the rear fascia/bumper
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!
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system 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 the
ParkSense Active Park Assist system in order to be
able to stop in time when an obstacle is detected. It
is recommended that the driver looks over his/her
shoulder when using the ParkSense Active Park
Assist system.

164STARTING AND OPERATING
Parallel Park Exit
Enable the ParkSense Active Park Assist system by
pressing the ParkSense Active Park Assist switch. To
initiate a parking space exit maneuver, the vehicle must
be stopped, and the driver must press “Exit” on the
Uconnect display.
After the driver chooses a parallel park exit maneuver, the
system will then prompt the driver to choose an exit
method. The exit method options are Forward Left and
Forward Right.
Choose Exit Method
NOTE:If an exit method selection is attempted before the vehicle
is stopped, the driver will be instructed to stop the vehicle
to make a selection.
After the driver chooses a parallel exit side, a message
appears in the Uconnect display with instructions to hold
the brake pedal and hold down the Active Park Assist
switch. Both of these conditions must be met before the
maneuver can begin. When the Active Park Assist switch is held down, the turn
signal for the chosen exit side will turn on automatically.
The system will then instruct the driver to remove hands
from the steering wheel and feet from the pedals. This
screen will be shown for a minimum of two seconds, or
until the driver releases the brake pedal.
When the exit sequence is initiated by the driver after the
previously described conditions are met, the Uconnect
system will display a Top View along with either a rear
camera view (if the vehicle is placed in REVERSE) or a
forward camera view (if the vehicle is placed in DRIVE),
and the exit maneuver will begin.
The Top View will have integrated ParkSense arcs in the
image at the front and rear of the vehicle. The arcs will
change color from yellow to red corresponding the
distance zones to the oncoming object.
The automatic maneuver ends when the vehicle is clear of
the parking space, and the display shows the message of
a completed maneuver. The vehicle will be in DRIVE and
held hydraulically by the brakes until the driver presses
the accelerator pedal. The system gives vehicle control
back to the driver.
Once the driver regains control of the vehicle, a chime will
sound and the LED on the switch will turn off. After
approximately five seconds, the previous Uconnect screen
will display.
Parking Maneuver Paused/Canceled
Certain conditions can pause or cancel a Fully Automated
park or exit maneuver.
The ParkSense Automated Parking system can be paused
due to the driver’s finger being removed from the Active
Park Assist switch and/or an object in the vehicle’s path
during a parking maneuver.
If one or more of these scenarios occur, automatic braking
will bring the vehicle to a stop and hold the vehicle
hydraulically by the brakes.
The driver will be instructed to hold the Active Park Assist
switch to continue the park or exit maneuver. If the driver
does not resume holding the switch down, the maneuver
will cancel.
If the maneuver is paused due to an object in the vehicle’s
path, a message will appear in the Uconnect display. The
maneuver will remain paused until the object is no longer
in the vehicle’s path.
The system can also be paused before the Active Park
Assist switch is held down if the driver shifts into
REVERSE.
The driver will be instructed to shift to DRIVE to continue
the maneuver. If the vehicle is shifted into DRIVE, the
process will continue on to the seek/maneuver selection
phase.

driver will be instructed to remove hands from the steering
wheel and shift into REVERSE.
Remove Hands From Wheel And Shift To Reverse
Release the steering wheel and use the brake and
accelerator pedals and gear selector as instructed, while
the system handles the steering automatically for exiting
the parking space. If the driver touches or holds the steering wheel
(voluntarily or not) during the exit maneuver, the
maneuver will be interrupted.
The Semi-Automatic maneuver ends when the display
shows the message of a completed maneuver. At the end
of the maneuver, the system gives vehicle control back to
the driver.
ACTIVE LANE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM —
IF EQUIPPED
ACTIVE LANE MANAGEMENT OPERATION
The Active Lane Management (ALM) system uses a
forward facing camera to detect lane markings or road
edges and to measure vehicle position within the lane
boundaries. It also uses the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
sensors to detect vehicles in adjacent lanes while the
driver is preparing to change lanes.
The system is operational at speeds above 37 mph
(60 km/h) and below 112 mph (180 km/h).
When both lane markings are detected, and the vehicle
approaches (or crosses) the lane marking with no turn
signal applied, and the blind spot zone is not occupied, the
ALM system provides warnings to prompt the driver to
remain within the lane boundaries. These warnings
include a visual warning in the instrument cluster along
with steering assist torque (if configured in Uconnect
Settings).
CAUTION!
The ParkSense Active Park Assist system 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 the
ParkSense Active Park Assist system in order to be
able to stop in time when an obstacle is detected. It
is recommended that the driver looks over his/her
shoulder when using the ParkSense Active Park
Assist system.

23_WS_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 167

168STARTING AND OPERATING
If the driver crosses the lane marking, the system will
either guide the vehicle back to the center of the lane,
provide a vibration in the steering wheel, or both,
depending on radio settings.
When both lane markings are detected, and the driver
uses the turn signal to indicate a lane change, and a
vehicle is detected in the BSM zone on that side of the
vehicle, the ALM system provides a warning in the form of
steering assist and/or steering vibration (depending on
radio settings) to guide the vehicle back to the center of
the lane.
NOTE:
The system will suppress visual warnings, steering
vibration (if selected in radio settings), and steering
assistance (if selected in radio settings) when the
driver activates the turn signal, the blind spot zone is
clear of vehicles, and a lane change is occurring.
If the Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system detects a
vehicle in the adjacent lane, and the turn signal is
applied in that direction, the BSM LED on the mirror will
flash. If the driver continues to attempt the lane
change, steering wheel torque will be provided to keep
the vehicle within its lane markings.
The driver may manually override the steering assist
warning by applying force to the steering wheel at any
time.
When only a single lane marking is detected and the driver
drifts across the lane marking (no turn signal applied), the
Active Lane Management system provides a visual
warning in the instrument cluster, as well as a steering
assist torque (if configured in Uconnect Settings), to
prompt the driver to remain within the lane boundaries. If the driver continues to drift out of the lane, the system
provides a flashing visual warning through the instrument
cluster display as well as a haptic steering wheel vibration
(if configured in Uconnect Settings) when the vehicle
crosses the lane boundary.
NOTE:When operating conditions have been met, the Active
Lane Management system will monitor if the driver’s
hands are on the steering wheel and provides an audible
and visual warning to the driver if removed. The system
will cancel if the driver does not return their hands to the
wheel.
TURNING ACTIVE LANE MANAGEMENT

The Active Lane Management system will indicate the
current lane drift condition through the instrument cluster
display.
When the system is on, the lane lines are gray when both
of the lane boundaries have not been detected.
System On (Gray Lines)
Left Lane Departure — Only Left Lane Detected
When the system is on and only the left lane marking
has been detected, and the system is ready to provide
visual warnings in the instrument cluster display and a
vibration and/or steering assist warning in the steering
wheel if a lane departure occurs, the left lane line will
be green.
23_WS_OM_EN_USC_t.book Page 168

STARTING AND OPERATING169
When the system senses the lane line has been
approached (but not crossed), the left lane line will
change to solid yellow and the system will provide
steering assist torque (if programmed in Uconnect
Settings).
When the system senses the lane line is being crossed,
the left lane line will change to flashing yellow, and the
system will provide haptic steering wheel vibration (if
programmed in Uconnect Settings).
Lane Crossed (Flashing Yellow Line)
NOTE:The Active Lane Management system operates with
similar behavior for a right lane departure when only the
right lane marking has been detected. Left Lane Departure — Both Lanes Detected
When the system is on, the lane lines turn from gray to
green to indicate that both of the lane markings have
been detected. When both lane markings have been
detected, the system is ready to provide visual warn -
ings in the instrument cluster display and a vibration
and/or steering assist warning in the steering wheel if
a lane departure occurs.
Lanes Sensed (Green Lines)
When the system senses a lane drift situation, the left
lane line turns solid yellow. At this time, steering assist
warning is applied to the steering wheel in the opposite
direction of the lane boundary.
For example: If approaching the left side of the lane the
steering wheel will turn to the right.
Lane Drift (Solid Yellow Line)
When the system senses the lane line is being crossed,
the left lane line changes from solid yellow to flashing
yellow (on/off). At this time, vibration is applied to the
steering wheel.
For example: If approaching the left side of the lane the
steering wheel will turn to the right.
