Will continue to appear every time you turn on the ignition to reset the system after scheduled maintenance shift into park and put the ignition into the on run position don’t start the engine then fully press the accelerator pedal slowly three times within 10 seconds then cycle the ignition off if you still see the message when you start the vehicle the system
Did not reset and you’ll need to repeat this procedure if equipped the forward collision warning system or fcw can warn you about potential front-end collisions fcw uses data from the front sensors electronic brake controller and wheel speed sensors to calculate a probable collision when the system decides a forward collision is probable it delivers audible
And visual warnings if a forward collision is no longer probable the warning deactivates other objects like guardrails or signposts can trigger these warnings too especially when driving on a curve this is normal fcw function remember fcw is not designed to avoid a collision on its own and it can’t detect every possible type of collision the driver has the
Responsibility to avoid a collision by breaking and steering you can adjust fcw sensitivity to far medium or near in your touchscreen you’ll find the headlight control switch on the left side of the instrument panel it controls your headlights parking lights and fog lights turn the switch to the first position for parking lights turn it to the second position
For headlights you can also set the switch to the auto position which automatically turns the headlights on or off based on surrounding light levels the dimmer control switches adjust the brightness of your ambient lighting instrument panel backlights and interior lights with the parking lights or headlights on or with the switch in the auto position rotate the
Dimmer control on the left to adjust ambient lighting the control on the right adjusts your instrument panel backlights rotate the instrument panel dimmer all the way up to the first position to put the interior lights into daytime mode rotate it to the second position to turn on all the interior lights rotate to the bottom position to disable the interior lights

And much much more you can even adjust the display’s appearance for example you can customize the information that appears in the display’s upper corners and bottom center area here’s hoping you’ll never have to but just in case let’s talk about changing a flat tire if equipped you’ll find the jack tools and the spare tire underneath the load floor in the
Rear cargo area remove the jacking tools and the wing nut securing the spare tire now you can remove the spare tire now loosen but do not remove the wheel bolts by turning them counterclockwise one turn while the wheel is still on the ground make sure you’re parked on a firm level surface safely away from traffic avoid ice or slippery areas also make sure the
Ignition is off the hazard lights are on and the parking brake is fully set use the chocks provided to chock the front and rear of the wheel diagonally opposite of the jacking position for example if changing the right front tire chock the left rear tire place the jack under the jacking location closest to the flat tire the saddle cutout should be indicated
By an arrow shaped indentation center the jack saddle inside the cutout do not raise the vehicle until you are sure the jack is fully engaged now you’re ready to raise the vehicle by turning the jack screw clockwise raise the vehicle only until the tire just clears the surface and enough clearance is obtained to install the spare tire remember minimum tire lift
Provides maximum stability okay now go ahead and remove the wheel bolts and wheel position the spare tire on the vehicle with the valve stem facing out the vehicle could be damaged if the spare tire is mounted incorrectly reinstall the wheel bolts with the cone-shaped end toward the wheel lightly tighten the wheel bolts clockwise now you can lower the vehicle
By turning the jack screw counterclockwise and remove the jack once on the ground you can finish tightening the wheel bolts alternate wheel bolts until each wheel bolt has been tightened twice maximum effort should be used for final tightening of the wheel bolts it’s always a good idea to have the titans checked with a torque wrench by an authorized dealer or

If equipped lanesense monitors your position within lane boundaries the system relies on a forward-facing camera to monitor lane markings and activates at freeway driving speeds to turn the system on push the lane sense button on the switch panel below the uconnect display lanesense on will appear in the instrument cluster display when both lane markings are
Detected by the system and you drift out of the lane without activating the turn signal lanesense applies warning pressure to the steering wheel to remind you to stay in the lane if you continue to drift out of the lane a visual warning will also appear in the instrument cluster display to override the initial warning use your turn signal or apply counter force
To the steering wheel at any time if just a single lane marking is detected and you drift over the marking without a turn signal lane sense will provide a visual warning but will apply no force to the steering wheel to turn the system off push the lane sense button again if equipped the parksense park assist system uses sensors to scan for obstacles anytime you
Drive forward or reverse at speeds appropriate for parking your vehicle push the parksense switch in the center console to turn the system on or off you can adjust system preferences on your touchscreen from settings in the safety and driving assistance menu when the sensors in the front or rear bumpers detect an obstacle you’ll hear a tone and the park assist
