WHAT IS HILL START ASSIST

Hill Start Assist makes it easier for you to
pull away when your vehicle is on a slope
without using the parking brake.

HOW DOES HILL START
ASSIST WORK

When the system activates, your vehicle
remains stationary for a few seconds after
you release the brake pedal. This gives you
time to move your foot from the brake
pedal to the accelerator pedal. The brakes
release when the electric motors provide
propulsion to prevent your vehicle from
rolling down slope.

HILL START ASSIST
PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

The system does not

replace the parking brake. When you
leave your vehicle, always apply the
parking brake.

WARNING:

You must remain in

your vehicle when the system turns on.
At all times, you are responsible for
controlling your vehicle, supervising the
system and intervening, if required.
Failure to take care may result in the loss
of control of your vehicle, serious
personal injury or death.

WARNING:

The system turns off if

there is a malfunction.

WHAT IS TRACTION CONTROL

The traction control system helps to avoid
drive wheel spin and loss of traction.

HOW DOES TRACTION
CONTROL WORK

If your vehicle begins to slide, the system
applies the brakes to individual wheels
and, when needed, reduces power at the
same time. If the wheels spin when
accelerating on slippery or loose surfaces,
the system reduces power in order to
increase traction.

SWITCHING TRACTION
CONTROL ON AND OFF

WARNING:

Operating your vehicle

with the traction control disabled could
lead to an increased risk of loss of vehicle
control, vehicle rollover, personal injury
and death.

The system turns traction control and
stability control on each time you power
on your vehicle.

The switch for the stability and traction
control system is on the instrument panel.

If you press the switch, it will turn traction
control off.

E341071

When you switch the system off, a
message and an illuminated icon appear
on the instrument cluster.

Use the switch again to return the traction
control system to normal operation.

If your vehicle is stuck in mud or snow,
switching traction control off may be
beneficial as this allows the wheels to spin.

Note:

When you switch traction control off,

stability control remains fully active.

Your vehicle could have MyKey restrictions
regarding this feature. See

What Is

MyKey

HOW DOES STABILITY
CONTROL WORK

WARNING:

Vehicle modifications

involving braking system, aftermarket
roof racks, suspension, steering system,
tire construction and wheel and tire size
may change the handling characteristics
of your vehicle and may adversely affect
the performance of the electronic
stability control system. In addition,
installing any stereo loudspeakers may
interfere with and adversely affect the
electronic stability control system. Install
any aftermarket stereo loudspeaker as
far as possible from the front center
console, the tunnel, and the front seats
in order to minimize the risk of interfering
with the electronic stability control
sensors. Reducing the effectiveness of
the electronic stability control system
could lead to an increased risk of loss of
vehicle control, vehicle rollover, personal
injury and death.

WARNING:

Remember that even

advanced technology cannot defy the
laws of physics. It's always possible to
lose control of a vehicle due to
inappropriate driver input for the
conditions. Aggressive driving on any
road condition can cause you to lose
control of your vehicle increasing the risk
of personal injury or property damage.
Activation of the electronic stability
control system is an indication that at
least some of the tires have exceeded
their ability to grip the road; this could
reduce the operator's ability to control
the vehicle potentially resulting in a loss
of vehicle control, vehicle rollover,
personal injury and death. If your
electronic stability control system
activates, SLOW DOWN.

If a driving condition activates either the
stability control or the traction control
system you may experience the following
conditions:

The stability and traction control light
flashes.

Your vehicle slows down.

Reduced power.

The stability control system has several
features built into it to help you maintain
control of your vehicle:

Electronic Stability Control

Electronic stability control enhances your
vehicle’s ability to prevent skids or lateral
slides by applying brakes to one or more
of the wheels individually and, if necessary,
reducing power.

Curve Control

Curve control enhances your vehicle’s
ability to follow the road when cornering
severely or avoiding objects in the roadway.
Curve control operates by reducing power
and, if necessary, applying brakes to one
or more of the wheels individually.

Traction Control

Traction control enhances your vehicle’s
ability to maintain traction of the wheels
by detecting and controlling wheel spin.

Shifting into reverse (R) disables the
system.

Note:

With electronic stability control off,

E-AWD protection controls remain active
and could be noticeable in slippery
conditions.

Note:

While stability control can be turned

off in any drive mode, the acceleration
response in engage mode provides the most
refined longitudinal control of the vehicle.

Note:

When you choose the drive mode

Unbridled

and electronic stability control

is off, it reduces the level of deceleration.

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

The electric power

steering system has diagnostic checks
that continuously monitor the system. If
a fault is detected, a message displays
in the information display. Stop your
vehicle as soon as it is safe to do so.
Switch the vehicle off. After at least 10
seconds, switch the vehicle on and
watch the information display for a
steering system warning message. If a
steering system warning message
returns, have the system checked as
soon as possible.

WARNING:

If the system detects

an error, you may not feel a difference in
the steering, however a serious condition
may exist. Have your vehicle checked as
soon as possible. Failure to do so may
result in loss of steering control.

Adapt your speed and driving behavior
according to reduced steering assist.

Extreme continuous steering may increase
the effort to steer. This occurs to prevent
internal overheating and damage to the
steering system. If this occurs, you will not
lose the ability to steer your vehicle
manually nor will it cause damage to the
system. Normal steering and driving allows
the system to cool down and steering
assist returns to normal.

Note:

There is no fluid reservoir to check or

fill.

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING
ADAPTIVE STEERING

Adaptive Learning

(If Equipped)

Adaptive learning helps correct road
irregularities and improves overall handling
and steering. It communicates with the
brake system to help operate advanced
stability control and crash avoidance
systems.

Note:

When the battery is disconnected or

a new battery is installed, you must drive
your vehicle a short distance before the
system relearns the strategy and reactivates
all systems.

Steering Tips

If the steering wanders or pulls, check for:

An improperly inflated tire.

Uneven tire wear.

Loose or worn suspension
components.

Improper vehicle alignment.

Note:

A high crown in the road or high

crosswinds could also make the steering
wander or pull.

PARKING AID PRECAUTIONS

WARNING:

To help avoid personal

injury, always use caution when in
reverse (R) and when using the sensing
system.

WARNING:

The system may not

detect objects with surfaces that absorb
reflection. Always drive with due care
and attention. Failure to take care may
result in a crash.

WARNING:

Traffic control systems,

fluorescent lamps, inclement weather,
air brakes, external motors and fans may
affect the correct operation of the
sensing system. This may cause reduced
performance or false alerts.

WARNING:

The system may not

detect small or moving objects,
particularly those close to the ground.

WARNING:

The parking aid system

can only assist you to detect objects
when your vehicle is moving at parking
speeds. To help avoid personal injury you
must take care when using the parking
aid system.

WARNING:

The system may not

function if the sensor is blocked.

WARNING:

In cold and severe

weather conditions the system may not
function. Rain, snow and spray can all
limit sensor performance.

WARNING:

If damage occurs in the

immediate area surrounding the sensor,
have your vehicle checked as soon as
possible.

Note:

If your vehicle sustains damage

leaving the sensors misaligned, this will
cause inaccurate measurements or false
alerts.

When you connect a trailer to your vehicle,
the rear parking aid detects the trailer and
provides an alert. Disable the parking aid
when you connect a trailer to prevent the
alert.

Note:

Certain add-on devices installed

around the bumper or fascia may create
false alerts, for example, large trailer
hitches, bike or surfboard racks, license plate
brackets, bumper covers or any other device
that could block the normal detection zone
of the parking aid system. Aftermarket spare
tires or spare tire covers mounted to the rear
tailgate could cause false alerts from the
park aid system. Remove the add-on device
to prevent false alerts.

Note:

Keep the sensors free from snow, ice

and large accumulations of dirt. If the
sensors are covered, the system's accuracy
can be affected.
