STARTING AND OPERATING 181
(Continued)
The priority order of the warnings from highest to
lowest is:
1. Pedestrian Warning Level 2
2. Animal Warning Level 2
3. Pedestrian Warning Level 1
4. Animal Warning Level 1
Level 2 Warnings may display in the Head Up
Display (if equipped).
NOTE:
If the vehicle is stopped, or slowing down, all Level
2 warnings become Level 1 warnings.
You can enable or disable the warnings within the
Uconnect system Ú page 204.
If the warnings are off, the telltales, chimes, and
warning messages will all be off. Pedestrians and
animals can still be detected by the system, but
there will be no warnings.
The Night Vision alert status telltale will
be gray when the warnings are
suppressed. The telltale will also turn
gray to indicate that the alerts are
suppressed due to environmental factors (e.g.
daylight hours, external temperature is greater
than 86°F (30°C)) or if the gear selector is in
REVERSE. When the Night Vision alerts are active,
the telltale will be green Ú page 110.
Camera Washers
When the front window washer is activated, the
Night Vision camera will also be washed
Ú page 65.
Due to washer pump packaging, the front
camera washers will run out of fluid before the
Low Washer Fluid Warning Light is activated.
When the front camera washers stop func-
tioning, add fluid to the washer fluid reservoir to
resume function.
DETECTION RANGE
The system can detect people 4 ft (1.25 m) tall or
greater in the upright position. The system can also
detect animals that are four-legged and 3 ft (1 m)
tall or greater in the upright position.
The detection distance for the system is between
26 ft (8 m) and 328 ft (100 m) from the front of the
vehicle.
The system may not be able to detect pedestrians
or animals in the following situations:
Pedestrian/animal is outside of the detection
range
Pedestrian/animal is fully or partially covered
Pedestrian/animal does not reach the minimum
detection height
WARNING!
Do not jerk the steering wheel in response to
a warning.
Never attempt to swerve around animals if
doing so would endanger you or other drivers
on the road.
Do not stare at the image while driving. You
could crash and you or others could be
injured.
The Night Vision system only provides alerts to
objects of interest and cannot serve as a
substitute for the driver’s personal judgment.
The warnings are meant to direct your atten-
tion to the detected objects, but the Night
Vision system does not automatically brake
the vehicle and may not provide a warning
with enough time to help avoid a crash.
Warnings are only provided if a pedestrian or
large animal is detected by the system.
It is always the driver’s responsibility to be
attentive of road, traffic, and weather condi-
tions, vehicle speed, distance to the vehicle
ahead, and most importantly, brake opera-
tion, 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.
WARNING!
