Jeep 2014 Cherokee - User Guide - Manual (Page 50)

WARNING!
• Drivers must be careful when backing up even when using ParkSense ® . 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. 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 ParkSense ® , it is strongly recommended that the ball mount and
hitch ball assembly is disconnected from the vehicle when the vehicle is not
used for towing. Failure to do so can result in injury or damage to vehicles or
obstacles because the hitch ball will be much closer to the obstacle than the
rear fascia when the loudspeaker 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.
LANESENSE
The LaneSense system can be enabled and disabled with the LaneSense button,
located on the switch panel below the Uconnect
® display.
• Press the LaneSense button to turn
the system ON (LED turns off).
The LaneSense system is operational at
speeds above 37 mph (60 km/h) and
below 112 mph (180 km/h). The La-
neSense system uses a forward looking
camera to detect lane markings and mea-
sure vehicle position within the lane
boundaries.
When both lane markings are detected
and the driver unintentionally drifts out
of the lane (no turn signal applied), the
LaneSense system provides a haptic
warning in the form of torque applied to
the steering wheel to prompt the driver to
remain within the lane boundaries. If the driver continues to unintentionally drift out
of the lane, the LaneSense system provides a visual warning through the instrument
cluster to prompt the driver to remain within the lane boundaries.
