1. Can someone locate my vehicle? To enhance

your privacy, and the privacy of others using

your vehicle, a stolen vehicle police report is

required for you to activate this service. You

must involve local law enforcement to have

SiriusXM Guardian™ locate your vehicle. We

may also locate the vehicle for other law

enforcement or government agencies,

subject to a valid court order telling SiriusXM

Guardian™ to do so. We will also provide the

service for FCA entities to locate a vehicle that

you have purchased through them.

2. How will I know if my vehicle is recovered?

After you provide the SiriusXM Guardian™

Customer Care agent with the stolen vehicle

report, the agent will work together with law

enforcement to try to locate your vehicle. If

your vehicle is recovered, you will be contacted

by law enforcement.

3. Can SiriusXM Guardian™ lower my insurance

rates? Some insurance providers offer lower

rates on vehicles equipped with systems that

can deter auto theft. When shopping for

insurance, be sure to inform the insurance

provider of your SiriusXM Guardian™ connected

services subscription to find out if the insurance

provider can offer you a lower rate.

NOTE:

Neither FCA nor SiriusXM® are insurance

companies, and SiriusXM Guardian™ is not an

insurance product. You are responsible for

obtaining insurance coverage for your vehicle and

yourself.

1. How long does it take to remotely start my

vehicle? Depending on various conditions, it

can take three minutes or more for the

request to get through to your vehicle.

2. Which is faster, my key fob or the Mobile App?

Your key fob will remote start your vehicle

more quickly. However its range is limited. For

example, when you are leaving the stadium

after the game, you can use the Mobile App to

remote start your vehicle and have the inside

of your vehicle comfortable by the time you get

to it.

3. Will my vehicle be safe if I lose my wireless

device? People sometimes lose their wireless

devices, which is why security measures have

been engineered into the Mobile App. Asking

for your username, password and SiriusXM

Guardian™ Security PIN help to ensure that

nobody can start your vehicle if they happen to

find your device.

4. Can someone drive off with my vehicle using

the App? No. Driving your vehicle still requires

the keys to be in the vehicle. The Remote Start

feature simply starts the engine to warm up or

cool down the interior before you arrive.

5. Can I stop a vehicle that is being driven with

the cancel Remote Vehicle Start command?

No. If the vehicle is in motion, the cancel

Remote Vehicle Start button will not stop the

vehicle.

6. Why can’t all mobile devices use the Mobile

App? The Mobile App has been designed to

work on most devices with the Apple® and

Android™ operating systems. The capabilities

of these devices allow us to remotely

(ABS)

ABS provides increased vehicle stability and brake

performance under most braking conditions. The

system automatically prevents wheel lock and

enhances vehicle control during braking.
The ABS performs a self-check cycle to ensure that

the ABS is working properly each time the vehicle

is started and driven. During this self-check, you

may hear a slight clicking sound as well as some

related motor noises.
The ABS is activated during braking when the

system detects one or more wheels are beginning

to lock. Road conditions such as ice, snow, gravel,

bumps, railroad tracks, loose debris, or panic stops

may increase the likelihood of ABS activation(s).
You also may experience the following normal

characteristics when the ABS activates:

ABS motor noise or clicking sounds (you may

continue to hear for a short time after the stop)

Brake pedal pulsations

A slight drop of the brake pedal at the end of the

stop

ABS is designed to function with the Original

Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) tires. Modification

may result in degraded ABS performance.

Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) Warning

Light

The yellow ABS Warning Light will turn on when the

ignition is placed in the ON/RUN mode and may

stay on for as long as four seconds.
If the ABS Warning Light remains on or comes on

while driving, it indicates that the anti-lock portion

of the brake system is not functioning and that

service is required. However, the conventional

brake system will continue to operate normally if

the ABS Warning Light is on.

WARNING!

The ABS contains sophisticated electronic

equipment that may be susceptible to interfer

-

ence caused by improperly installed or high

output radio transmitting equipment. This

interference can cause possible loss of

anti-lock braking capability. Installation of

such equipment should be performed by qual

-

ified professionals.

Pumping of the Anti-Lock Brakes will diminish

their effectiveness and may lead to a collision.

Pumping makes the stopping distance longer.

Just press firmly on your brake pedal when you

need to slow down or stop.

The ABS cannot prevent the natural laws of

physics from acting on the vehicle, nor can it

increase braking or steering efficiency beyond

that afforded by the condition of the vehicle

brakes and tires or the traction afforded.

The ABS cannot prevent collisions, including

those resulting from excessive speed in turns,

following another vehicle too closely, or hydro

-

planing.

The capabilities of an ABS equipped vehicle

must never be exploited in a reckless or

dangerous manner that could jeopardize the

user’s safety or the safety of others.

YSTEM

Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced

Electronic Brake Control (EBC) system. This system

includes Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS), Brake

Assist System (BAS), Electronic Roll Mitigation

(ERM), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Hill Start

Assist (HSA) and Traction Control System (TCS).

These systems work together to enhance both

vehicle stability and control in various driving

conditions.
Your vehicle may also be equipped with Dynamic

Steering Torque (DST), Hill Descent Control (HDC)

and Trailer Sway Control (TSC).

Brake Assist System (BAS)

The BAS is designed to optimize the vehicle’s

braking capability during emergency braking

maneuvers. The system detects an emergency

braking situation by sensing the rate and amount

of brake application and then applies optimum

pressure to the brakes. This can help reduce

braking distances. The BAS complements the

Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS). Applying the brakes

very quickly results in the best BAS assistance. To

receive the benefit of the system, you must apply

continuous braking pressure during the stopping

sequence (do not “pump” the brakes). Do not

reduce brake pedal pressure unless braking is no

longer desired. Once the brake pedal is released,

the BAS is deactivated.

Dynamic Steering Torque (DST)

DST uses the integration of the Electronic Stability

Control (ESC) system with the electric power

steering to increase the safety level of the whole

vehicle. In critical situations (understeering,

oversteering, braking with different grip

conditions), through the DST function the ESC

system controls the steering to implement an

additional torque contribution on the steering

wheel, to suggest the most correct maneuver to

the driver. The coordinated action of brakes and

steering increases the safety and feeling of vehicle

control.

NOTE:

The DST is a driving aid system and does not

replace the driver’s actions while driving the car.

Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM)

ERM anticipates the potential for wheel lift by

monitoring the driver’s steering wheel input and

the speed of the vehicle. When Electronic Roll

Mitigation (ERM) determines that the rate of

change of the steering wheel angle and vehicle's

speed are sufficient to potentially cause wheel lift,

it then applies the appropriate brake and may also

reduce engine power to lessen the chance that

wheel lift will occur. ERM can only reduce the

chance of wheel lift occurring during severe or

evasive driving maneuvers, and it will only

intervene during these types of maneuvers. It

cannot prevent wheel lift due to other factors, such

as road conditions, leaving the roadway, or striking

objects or other vehicles.

NOTE:

ERM is disabled any time the ESC is in “Full Off”

mode. For a complete explanation of the available

ESC modes, see

Ú

page

223.

WARNING!

The Brake Assist System (BAS) cannot prevent

the natural laws of physics from acting on the

vehicle, nor can it increase the traction afforded

by prevailing road conditions. BAS cannot

prevent collisions, including those resulting from

excessive speed in turns, driving on very slippery

surfaces, or hydroplaning. The capabilities of a

BAS-equipped vehicle must never be exploited in

a reckless or dangerous manner, which could

jeopardize the user's safety or the safety of

others.

SAFETY

223

Electronic Stability Control (ESC)

ESC enhances directional control and stability of

the vehicle under various driving conditions. ESC

corrects for oversteering or understeering of the

vehicle by applying the brake of the appropriate

wheel(s) to counteract the above conditions.

Engine power may also be reduced to help the

vehicle maintain the desired path.

Oversteer — when the vehicle is turning more

than appropriate for the steering wheel position.

Understeer — when the vehicle is turning less

than appropriate for the steering wheel position.

ESC uses sensors in the vehicle to determine the

vehicle path intended by the driver and compares

it to the actual path of the vehicle. When the actual

path does not match the intended path, ESC

applies the brake of the appropriate wheel to

assist in counteracting the oversteer or understeer

condition.
The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light

located in the instrument cluster will start to flash

as soon as the ESC system becomes active. The

ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light also

flashes when the TCS is active. If the ESC

Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light begins to

flash during acceleration, ease up on the

accelerator and apply as little throttle as possible.

Be sure to adapt your speed and driving to the

prevailing road conditions.

WARNING!

Many factors, such as vehicle loading, road

conditions, and driving conditions, influence the

chance that wheel lift or rollover may occur.

Electronic Roll Mitigation (ERM) cannot prevent

all wheel lift or rollovers, especially those that

involve leaving the roadway or striking objects or

other vehicles. The capabilities of an

ERM-equipped vehicle must never be exploited

in a reckless or dangerous manner, which could

jeopardize the user's safety or the safety of

others.

WARNING!

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) cannot

prevent the natural laws of physics from acting

on the vehicle, nor can it increase the traction

afforded by prevailing road conditions. ESC

cannot prevent accidents, including those

resulting from excessive speed in turns, driving

on very slippery surfaces, or hydroplaning. ESC

also cannot prevent accidents resulting from

loss of vehicle control due to inappropriate

driver input for the conditions. Only a safe,

attentive, and skillful driver can prevent acci

-

dents. The capabilities of an ESC equipped

vehicle must never be exploited in a reckless or

dangerous manner which could jeopardize the

user’s safety or the safety of others.

Vehicle modifications, or failure to properly

maintain your vehicle, may change the handling

characteristics of your vehicle, and may nega

-

tively affect the performance of the ESC system.

Changes to the steering system, suspension,

braking system, tire type and size or wheel size

may adversely affect ESC performance. Improp

-

erly inflated and unevenly worn tires may also

degrade ESC performance. Any vehicle modifi

-

cation or poor vehicle maintenance that

reduces the effectiveness of the ESC system

can increase the risk of loss of vehicle control,

vehicle rollover, personal injury and death.

SAFETY

ESC Operation Modes

To disable ESC and other safety systems, follow

the instructions below.
There are three modes of active safety systems

present on the vehicle:

ESC On

Partial Off

Full Off

ESC On – Two-Wheel Drive Vehicles And

Four-Wheel Drive Vehicles In 2WD And 4WD High
This is the normal operating mode for ESC when

operating a two-wheel drive vehicle. It is also the

normal mode for operating a four-wheel drive

vehicle in 2WD or 4WD High. The ESC system will

be in “ESC On” mode whenever the vehicle is

started or the power transfer unit (if equipped) is

shifted out of 4WD Low. This mode should be used

for most driving situations. ESC should only be

turned to “Partial Off” or “Full Off” for specific

reasons as noted. Refer to “Partial Off” and to “Full

Off” for additional information.

NOTE:

It is recommended to select the mode "Partial Off"

or "Full Off" only for specific reasons.
Partial Off – Two-Wheel Drive Vehicles And

Four-Wheel Drive Vehicles In 2WD And 4WD High
The “Partial Off” mode is intended for driving in

deep snow, sand, or gravel. This mode raises the

threshold for TCS and ESC activation, which allows

for more wheel spin than what ESC normally

allows.

ESC OFF Button

To enter the “Partial Off” mode, momentarily push

the ESC OFF button and the ESC OFF Indicator

Light will illuminate. To turn the ESC on again,

momentarily push the ESC OFF button and the ESC

OFF Indicator Light will turn off. This will restore the

normal “ESC On” mode of operation.

NOTE:

To improve the vehicle’s traction when driving with

snow chains, or when starting off in deep snow,

sand, or gravel, it may be desirable to switch to the

“Partial Off” mode by momentarily pushing the ESC

OFF button. Once the situation requiring “Partial

Off” mode is overcome, turn ESC back on by

momentarily pushing the ESC OFF button. This may

be done while the vehicle is in motion.

Full Off – Four-Wheel Drive Vehicles In 4WD High

And 4WD Low
The “Full Off” mode is intended for off-highway and

off-road use when ESC stability features could

inhibit vehicle maneuverability due to trail

conditions. The ESC OFF button is located in the

lower switch bank above the climate control panel.

To enter “Full Off” mode, push and hold the ESC

OFF button for five seconds while the vehicle is

stopped with the engine running. After five

seconds, the ESC OFF Indicator Light will illuminate

and an “ESC OFF” message will appear in the

odometer.
In this mode, ESC and TCS are turned off (except for

the “limited slip” feature described in the TCS

section) until the vehicle reaches a speed of 40

mph

WARNING!

When in “Partial Off” mode, the TCS function

-

ality of ESC, except for the limited slip feature

described in the TCS section, has been

disabled and the ESC OFF Indicator Light will

be illuminated. When in “Partial Off” mode,

the engine power reduction feature of TCS is

disabled, and the enhanced vehicle stability

offered by the ESC system is reduced.

Trailer Sway Control (TSC) is disabled when

the ESC system is in the “Partial Off” mode.

SAFETY

225

(64

km/h). At speeds over 40

mph (64

km/h), the

system automatically switches to “Partial Off” mode,

described above. When the vehicle speed returns to

less than 35

mph (56

km/h), the ESC system will

return to “Full Off” mode. The ESC OFF Indicator

Light is always illuminated when ESC is off. To turn

ESC on again, momentarily push the ESC OFF

button. This will restore the normal “ESC On” mode

of operation.

NOTE:

With the ESC switched off, the enhanced vehicle

stability offered by ESC is unavailable. In an emer

-

gency evasive maneuver, the ESC system will not

engage to assist in maintaining stability. “Full Off”

mode is only intended for off-highway or off-road

use.

NOTE:

“Full Off” is the only operating mode for ESC in

4WD Low. The ESC system will be in this mode

whenever the vehicle is started in 4WD Low or

the power transfer unit is shifted into 4WD Low.

The “ESC OFF” message will display and a chime

will sound when the gear selector is moved from

any position to the PARK (P) position and then

moved out of the PARK position. This will occur

even if the message was cleared previously.

Selec-Terrain — If Equipped
On models equipped with Selec-Terrain, the

activation of some driving modes provide partial

off or full off of some active safety systems in order

to optimize performance in specific modes.
Partial or full off of the active safety systems will be

indicated by a light in the instrument cluster.
In "SAND" and "MUD", the active safety systems

are partially disabled and put in place to ensure

maximum performance in the specific mode of

operation. However, you can reactivate them

completely at any time by pushing the ESC button.

NOTE:

In 4WD Low, the active safety systems are

completely bypassed in order to ensure maximum

off-road performance.

ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light

And ESC OFF Indicator Light

The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator

Light in the instrument cluster will come

on when the ignition switch is placed in

the ON position. It should go out with the

engine running. If the ESC Activation/Malfunction

Indicator Light comes on continuously with the

engine running, a malfunction has been detected

in the ESC system. If this light remains on after

several ignition cycles, and the vehicle has been

driven several miles/kilometers at speeds greater

than 30

mph (48

km/h), see an authorized dealer

as soon as possible to have the problem

diagnosed and corrected.

The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light

(located in the instrument cluster) starts to flash as

soon as the tires lose traction and the ESC system

becomes active. The ESC Activation/Malfunction

Indicator Light also flashes when Traction Control

System is active. If the ESC Activation/Malfunction

Indicator Light begins to flash during acceleration,

ease up on the accelerator and apply as little

throttle as possible. Be sure to adapt your speed

and driving to the prevailing road conditions.

NOTE:

The ESC Activation/Malfunction Indicator Light

and the ESC OFF Indicator Light come on

momentarily each time the ignition switch is

placed in the ON position.

Each time the ignition is placed in the ON posi

-

tion, the ESC system will be on even if it was

turned off previously.

The ESC system will make buzzing or clicking

sounds when it is active. This is normal; the

sounds will stop when ESC becomes inactive

following the maneuver that caused the ESC

activation.

The ESC OFF Indicator Light indicates the

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is in

“Partial Off” or “Full Off” modes.

The ESC OFF button is located in the center

console.

SAFETY

Hill Descent Control (HDC) — If Equipped

Hill Descent Control (Trailhawk)

HDC is intended for low speed off-road driving

while in 4WD Low. HDC maintains vehicle speed

while descending hills during various driving

situations. HDC controls vehicle speed by actively

controlling the brakes.
HDC has three states:
1. Off (feature is not enabled and will not

activate).

2. Enabled (feature is enabled and ready but

activation conditions are not met, or driver is

actively overriding with brake or throttle

application).

3. Active (feature is enabled and actively

controlling vehicle speed).

Enabling HDC
HDC is enabled by pushing the HDC switch, but the

following conditions must also be met to enable

HDC:

The driveline is in 4WD Low.

The vehicle speed is below 7.5

mph (12

km/h).

The Electric Park Brake (EPB) is released.

The driver’s door is closed.

Activating HDC
Once HDC is enabled, it will activate automatically

if driven down a grade of sufficient magnitude

(greater than approximately 8%). The set speed for

HDC is selectable by the driver and can be

adjusted using brake and throttle input.
Driver Override:
The driver may override HDC activation with

throttle or brake application at any time.
Deactivating HDC
HDC will be deactivated but remain available if any

of the following conditions occur:

The driver overrides HDC set speed with throttle

or brake application.

Vehicle speed exceeds 7.5

mph (12

km/h) but

remains below 25

mph (40

km/h).

Vehicle is on a downhill grade of insufficient

magnitude (less than approximately 8%), is on

level ground, or is on an uphill grade.

Vehicle is shifted to PARK (P).

Disabling HDC
HDC will be deactivated and disabled if any of the

following conditions occur:

The driver pushes the HDC switch.

The driveline is shifted out of 4WD Low.

The driver’s door opens.

The vehicle is driven greater than 25

mph

(40

km/h) (HDC exits immediately.)

Feedback To The Driver:
The instrument cluster has an HDC icon and the

HDC switch has an LED, which offers feedback to

the driver about the state HDC is in.

The cluster icon and switch lamp will illuminate

and remain solid when HDC is enabled or acti

-

vated. This is the normal operating condition for

HDC.

The switch lamp will flash for several seconds

then extinguish when the driver pushes the HDC

Hill Start Assist (HSA)

HSA is designed to help the driver accelerate the

vehicle from a complete stop while on an incline. If

the driver releases the brake while stopped on an

incline, HSA will continue to hold the brake

pressure for a short period. If the driver does not

apply the throttle before this time expires, the

system will release brake pressure and the vehicle

will roll down the hill as normal. The system will

release brake pressure in proportion to amount of

throttle applied.
The following conditions must be met in order for

HSA to activate:

The vehicle must be stopped.

The vehicle must be on a 5% (approximate)

grade or greater hill.

The gear selection must match vehicle uphill

direction (i.e., vehicle facing uphill is in forward

gear; vehicle backing uphill is in REVERSE gear).

For vehicles equipped with an automatic trans

-

mission, the HSA will work in REVERSE gear and

all forward gears. The system will not activate if

the transmission is in PARK.

Disabling And Enabling HSA
This feature can be turned on or turned off. To

change the current setting, see

Traction Control System (TCS)

TCS monitors the amount of wheel spin of each of

the driven wheels. If wheel spin is detected, brake

pressure is applied to the slipping wheel(s) and

engine power is reduced to provide enhanced

acceleration and stability. A feature of the TCS,

Brake Limited Differential (BLD) functions similarly

to a limited slip differential and controls the wheel

spin across a driven axle. If one wheel on a driven

axle is spinning faster than the other, the system

will apply the brake of the spinning wheel. This will

allow more engine torque to be applied to the

wheel that is not spinning. This feature remains

active even if TCS and Electronic Stability Control

(ESC) are in the “Partial Off” mode or the “Full Off”

modes. For further information, see

Ú

page

223.

Trailer Sway Control (TSC) — If Equipped

TSC uses sensors in the vehicle to recognize an

excessively swaying trailer and will take the

appropriate actions to attempt to stop the sway.

The system may reduce engine power and apply

the brake of the appropriate wheel(s) to counteract

the sway of the trailer.

NOTE:

TSC cannot stop all trailers from swaying. Always

use caution when towing a trailer and follow the

trailer tongue weight recommendations. For

further information, see

Ú

page

124. When TSC is

functioning, the ESC Activation/Malfunction Indi

-

cator Light will flash, the engine power may be

reduced and you may feel the brakes being applied

to individual wheels to attempt to stop the trailer

from swaying. TSC is disabled when the ESC

system is in the “Partial Off” mode.

WARNING!

HDC is only intended to assist the driver in

controlling vehicle speed when descending hills.

The driver must remain attentive to the driving

conditions and is responsible for maintaining a

safe vehicle speed.

WARNING!

There may be situations where the Hill Start

Assist (HSA) will not activate and slight rolling

may occur, such as on minor hills or with a

loaded vehicle, or while pulling a trailer. HSA is

not a substitute for active driving involvement. It

is always the driver’s responsibility to be

attentive to distance to other vehicles, people,

and objects, and most importantly 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 or

serious personal injury.

QUIPPED

BSM uses two radar-based sensors, located inside

the rear fascia/bumper to detect highway

licensable vehicles (automobiles, trucks,

motorcycles, etc.) that enter the blind spot zones

from the rear/front/side of the vehicle.

Rear Detection Zones

When the vehicle is started, the BSM Warning Light

will momentarily illuminate in both outside

rearview mirrors to let the driver know that the

system is operational. The BSM system sensors

operate when the vehicle is in any forward gear

and enters standby mode when the vehicle is in

PARK (P).
The BSM detection zone covers approximately one

lane width on both sides of the vehicle, 10

ft (3

m).

The zone length starts at the outside mirror and

extends approximately 20

ft (6

m) beyond the rear

fascia/bumper of the vehicle. The BSM system

monitors the detection zones on both sides of the

vehicle when the vehicle speed reaches

approximately 6

mph (10

km/h) or higher and will

alert the driver of vehicles in these areas.

NOTE:

The BSM system DOES NOT alert the driver

about rapidly approaching vehicles that are

outside the detection zones.

If a trailer is connected to the vehicle, it is neces

-

sary to deactivate the BSM system manually

through the settings menu to avoid a misdetec

-

tion. For further information, see

Ú

page

133.

The area on the rear fascia/bumper where the

radar sensors are located must remain free of

snow, ice, and dirt/road contamination so that the

BSM system can function properly. Do not block

the radar sensors located on the rear fascia/

bumper with foreign objects (bumper stickers,

bicycle racks, etc.).

Rear Sensor Locations

The BSM system notifies the driver of objects in the

detection zones by illuminating the BSM warning

light located in the outside mirrors in addition to

sounding an audible (chime) alert and reducing the

radio volume

BSM Warning Light

WARNING!

If TSC activates while driving, slow the vehicle

down, stop at the nearest safe location, and

adjust the trailer load to eliminate trailer sway.

SAFETY

229

The BSM system monitors the detection zone from

three different entry points (side, rear, front) while

driving to see if an alert is necessary. The BSM

system will issue an alert during these types of

zone entries.
Entering From The Side
Vehicles that move into your adjacent lanes from

either side of the vehicle.

Overtaking Traffic
If you pass another vehicle slowly with a relative

speed of less than 15

mph (25

km/h) and the

vehicle remains in the blind spot for approximately

1.5 seconds, the warning light will be illuminated.

If the difference in speed between the two vehicles

SAFETY

The BSM system is designed not to issue an alert

on stationary objects such as guardrails, posts,

walls, foliage, berms, etc. However, occasionally

the system may alert on such objects. This is

normal operation and your vehicle does not require

service.
The BSM system will not alert you of objects that

are traveling in the opposite direction of the vehicle

in adjacent lanes

Opposing Traffic

Rear Cross Path (RCP)

RCP is intended to aid the driver when backing out

of parking spaces where their vision of oncoming

vehicles may be blocked. Proceed slowly and

cautiously out of the parking space until the rear

end of the vehicle is exposed. The RCP system will

then have a clear view of the cross traffic and if an

oncoming vehicle is detected, alert the driver.

RCP Detection Zones

RCP monitors the rear detection zones on both

sides of the vehicle, for objects that are moving

toward the side of the vehicle with a minimum

speed of approximately 1

mph (2

km/h), to objects

moving a maximum of approximately 22

mph

(35

km/h), such as in parking lot situations.

When RCP is on and the vehicle is in REVERSE (R),

the driver is alerted using both the visual and

audible alarms, including reducing the radio

volume.

WARNING!

The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only an aid

to help detect objects in the blind spot zones.

The BSM system is not designed to detect

pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals. Even if your

vehicle is equipped with the BSM system, always

check your vehicle’s mirrors, glance over your

shoulder, and use your turn signal before

changing lanes. Failure to do so can result in

serious injury or death.

SAFETY

231

NOTE:

In a parking lot situation, oncoming vehicles can be

blocked by vehicles parked on either side. If the

sensors are blocked by other structures or

vehicles, the system will not be able to alert the

driver.

Blind Spot Modes

Blind Spot has three selectable modes of

operation that are available in the Uconnect

system.
Blind Spot Alert Lights Only
When operating in Blind Spot Alert mode, the BSM

system will provide a visual alert in the appropriate

side view mirror based on a detected object.

However, when the system is operating in Rear

Cross Path (RCP) mode, the system will respond

with both visual and audible alerts when a

detected object is present. Whenever an audible

alert is requested, the radio is muted.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime

mode, the BSM system will provide a visual alert in

the appropriate side view mirror based on a

detected object. If the turn signal is then activated,

and it corresponds to an alert present on that side

of the vehicle, an audible chime will also be

sounded. Whenever a turn signal and detected

object are present on the same side at the same

time, both the visual and audible alerts will be

issued. In addition to the audible alert, the radio (if

on) will also be muted.

NOTE:

Whenever an audible alert is requested by the

BSM system, the radio is also muted.
When the system is in RCP, the system will respond

with both visual and audible alerts when a

detected object is present. Whenever an audible

alert is requested, the radio is also muted. Turn/

hazard signal status is ignored; the RCP state

always requests the chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off, there will be a

related message on instrument cluster display. If

BSM system is off, this message will be visualized

every time the vehicle is restarted.

NOTE:

The BSM system will store the current operating

mode when the vehicle is shut off. Each time the

vehicle is started the previously stored mode will

be recalled and used.

WARNING!

Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) is not a backup

aid system. It is intended to be used to help a

driver detect an oncoming vehicle in a parking

lot situation. Drivers must be careful when

backing up, even when using RCP. 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. Failure to do so can result in

serious injury or death.

QUIPPED

FCW with Mitigation provides the driver with

audible warnings (through the radio), visual

warnings (within the instrument cluster display),

and may apply a brake jerk to warn the driver when

it detects a potential frontal collision. The warnings

and limited braking are intended to provide the

driver with enough time to react, avoid or mitigate

the potential collision.

NOTE:

FCW monitors the information from the forward

looking sensors as well as the Electronic Brake

Controller (EBC), to calculate the probability of a

forward collision. When the system determines

that a forward collision is probable, the driver

will be provided with audible and visual warn

-

ings and may provide a brake jerk warning.

If the driver does not take action based upon

these progressive warnings, then the system

will provide a limited level of active braking to

help slow the vehicle and mitigate the potential

forward collision. If the driver reacts to the warn

-

ings by braking and the system determines that

the driver intends to avoid the collision by

braking but has not applied sufficient brake

force, the system will compensate and provide

additional brake force as required.

Vehicles With A Manual Transmission: After the

end of the intervention of automatic braking, the

engine could stall, unless the driver can press the

clutch pedal.
Vehicles With Automatic Transmission: After the

end of the intervention of automatic braking, the

transmission may remain in last gear stored:

therefore the vehicle could lurch forward, once the

brakes release a few seconds later. If the Forward

Collision Warning with Mitigation event stops the

vehicle completely, the system will hold the vehicle

at standstill for two seconds and then release the

brakes.
If a FCW with Mitigation event begins at a speed

below 26

mph (42

km/h), the system may provide

the maximum braking possible to mitigate the

potential forward collision. If the Forward Collision

Warning with Mitigation event stops the vehicle

completely, the system will hold the vehicle at

standstill for two seconds and then release the

brakes.

FCW Message

When the system determines a collision with the

vehicle in front of you is no longer probable, the

warning message will be deactivated.

NOTE:

The minimum speed for FCW activation is

3

mph (5

km/h).

The FCW alerts may be triggered on objects

other than vehicles such as guardrails or sign

posts based on the course prediction. This is

expected and is a part of normal FCW activation

and functionality.

The FCW system is intended for on-road use

only. If the vehicle is taken off-road, the FCW

system should be deactivated to prevent unnec

-

essary warnings to the surroundings.
