WARNING!
•
Before exiting a vehicle, always come to a com-
plete stop, then shift the automatic transmission
into PARK and apply the parking brake.
•
Always make sure the keyless ignition node is in
the OFF position, key fob is removed from the
vehicle and vehicle is locked.
•
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or with
access to an unlocked vehicle. Leaving children in
a vehicle unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously or
fatally injured. Children should be warned not to
touch the parking brake, brake pedal or the gear
selector.
•
Do not leave children or animals inside parked
vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat buildup may
cause serious injury or death.
DROWSY DRIVER DETECTION
(DDD) — IF EQUIPPED
DDD detects when the driver is feeling fatigued and
warns the driver to pull over and take a break.
To Activate/Deactivate
DDD can be activated and deactivated through the
Uconnect system by selecting the following in order:
1. “Safety & Driving Assistance”
2. “Drowsy Driver Detection”
WARNING!
The DDD system is an aid for driving and does not
relieve the driver of the responsibility of driving the
vehicle. If you experience fatigue while driving, pull
over safely for a break without waiting for the DDD to
intervene. Only return to the road when you are in the
right physical and mental condition to prevent endan-
gering yourself and other drivers.
System Intervention
Using feedback obtained from the driver’s steering pat-
terns, any buttons/switches that are pressed, and from
the front camera, the system implements two operating
logics:
•
The first operating logic takes the driving style into
account, observing the road and detecting to what
extent the driver can continue driving with few lane
crossing events.
•
The second operating logic measures the time
spent behind the wheel with the vehicle speed
above 40 mph (60 km/h) and below 100 mph
(160 km/h).
If the driving style indicates that the driver is unable to
follow the road trajectory and respect the horizontal
lane markings while within the operating speed range
of the system, a pop-up will display on the instrument
cluster display suggesting the driver stop for a break.
An audible signal will also sound.
If the driver accepts the suggestion provided by the sys-
tem by pushing the “OK” button on the left side of the
steering wheel, the message will disappear from the
display.
If the driver does not acknowledge the warning it will
be displayed for 60 seconds and then disappear.
NOTE:
In the event of a DDD system failure, a dedicated mes-
sage will appear in the instrument cluster display.
ELECTRONIC BRAKE CONTROL
(EBC) SYSTEM
Your vehicle is equipped with an advanced EBC system.
This system includes the Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS),
Brake Assist System (BAS), Electronic Brake Force Dis-
tribution (EBD), Electronic Stability Control (ESC), Elec-
tronic Roll Mitigation (ERM), Hill Start Assist (HSA),
Intersection Collision Assist (ICA), 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 Steer-
ing Torque (DST), Rain Brake Support (RBS), Ready
