Turning CMBS On or Off
Press and hold CMBS OFF. A beep sounds and a
message appears in the MID. The CMBS indicator
appears when the system is off.
Important Safety Reminder
CMBS is designed to reduce the severity of an unavoidable collision. It does not
prevent collisions nor stop the vehicle automatically. It is still your responsibility to
operate the brake pedal and steering wheel appropriately according to the driving
conditions.
*if equipped
Lane Departure Warning ( LDW)*
Alerts you if the system detects a possibility of your vehicle unintentionally
crossing over detected lane markings while driving between 45–90 mph (72–145
km/h).
If your vehicle is getting too close to detected left
or right side lane markings without a turn signal
activated, the system provides visual and tactile
alerts.
A Lane Departure message appears on the MID,
and the steering wheel vibrates. Take appropriate
action to stay within your driving lane.
Turning LDW On or Off
Press the LDW button to turn the system on or off.
A green indicator light appears on the button when
the system is on.
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, LDW has limitations. Over-reliance on LDW may result
in a collision. It is always your responsibility to keep the vehicle within your lane.
LDW only alerts you when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in use. LDW
may not detect all lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will vary based on
weather, speed, and lane marker condition. It is always your responsibility to safely
operate the vehicle and avoid collisions.

Lane Keeping Assist System ( LKAS)*
Provides steering input to help keep the vehicle in the middle of a detected lane and
visual and tactile alerts if the vehicle is detected drifting out of its lane while driving

If your vehicle is getting too close to detected left
or right side lane markings without a turn signal
activated, the system provides visual and tactile
alerts.
A Lane Departure message appears on the MID,
and the steering wheel vibrates. Steering torque
is also applied to help keep your vehicle within
your driving lane. Take appropriate action to stay
within your driving lane.
Important Safety Reminder
LKAS is for your convenience only. It is not a substitute for your vehicle control. The
system does not work if you take your hands off the steering wheel or fail to steer
the vehicle.
Do not place an object on the top of the instrument panel. It may refl ect onto the
windshield and prevent the system from detecting lane lines properly.
Do not use when towing.

If your vehicle is getting too close to detected lane
markings without a turn signal activated, a message
appears in the MID. Steering wheel torque and
vibrations are applied to help your vehicle stay in

detecting driver response, the system beeps to alert
you.

(32 km/h) or higher.
When a vehicle is detected in your blind spot, the
blind spot indicator turns on and stays lit until

collision. The system is for your convenience only.
Failure to visually confi rm that it is safe to change lanes before doing so may
result in a crash and serious injury or death. Do not rely only on the blind
spot information system when changing lanes.
