A
djust your seating position, mirrors, and steering wheel properly.
•
Mak
e sure items placed on the floor behind the front seats cannot roll under
the seats.
•
Ev
eryone in the vehicle must fasten their seat belt.
Make sure that the indicators in the instrument panel come on when you start
the vehicle, and go off soon after. In addition:
•
During
the first 600 miles (1,000 km) of operation, avoid sudden acceleration
or full throttle operation so as to not damage the engine or powertrain.
•
A
void hard braking for the first 200 miles (300 km). You should also follow this
when the brake pads are replaced.
Before Driving
Check the following items before you begin driving.
Exterior Checks
•
Mak

Brake Assist System During hard or emergency braking, the system increases braking force. The brake
pedal may move slightly or make a noise; this is normal. Continue to hold the
brake pedal firmly down.
Anti-Lock Brake System (ABS) During hard or emergency braking, the system rapidly pumps the brakes to
prevent wheel lockup and help you maintain steering control. The brake pedal
may pulsate slightly during ABS operation; this is normal. Do not pump the brake
pedal, and continue to hold it firmly down.
The ABS may not function correctly if you use an incorrect tire type and size.

still allow the vehicle to move if you remove your foot from the brake pedal.
If a vehicle unexpectedly moves, it may cause a crash resulting in serious
injury or death.
Never use the automatic brake hold system or rely on it to keep a vehicle
from moving when stopped on a steep hill or slippery roads.
WARNING
Using the automatic brake hold system to park the vehicle may result in the
vehicle unexpectedly moving.
If a vehicle moves unexpectedly, it may cause a crash, resulting in serious

Forward Collision Warning (FCW)*
Alerts you if the system determines the possibility of your vehicle colliding with a
vehicle detected in front of you when your vehicle speed is 10 mph (15 km/h) or
higher.
If you do not brake in time or take preventive
action, BRAKE flashes in the MID and a beep sounds
continuously.

Important Safety Reminder
FCW cannot detect all objects ahead and may not detect a given object; accuracy
of the system will vary based on weather, speed, and other factors. FCW does not
include a braking function. It is always your responsibility to safely operate the
vehicle and avoid collisions.
*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, a message appears in the MID and a beep
sounds continuously.
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.

Alert Stages
The system has three alert stages for a possible collision. Depending on the
circumstances or CMBS settings, CMBS may not go through all of the stages
before initiating the last stage.
Stage 1:
Visual warnings

Stage 2:
Visual

CMBS indicator appears when the system is off.
Changing SettingsSee page 86 for how to change CMBS settings. Options include Long, Normal
(default), and Short. Use the CMBS OFF button to turn the system off.
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)*
Provides steering input to help keep the vehicle in the middle of a detected lane
and audible and visual alerts if the vehicle is detected drifting out of its lane 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 steering wheel vibrates, a message
appears in the MID, and a beep sounds continuously.
The system also applies steering torque to keep the
vehicle in the middle of the lane. The applied torque
becomes stronger as the vehicle gets closer to either
of the lane lines.
Important Safety Reminder
The 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.
The LKAS only alerts you when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in use.
The LKAS 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.

Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™)*
Can assist you when a potential frontal collision with a vehicle or pedestrian is
determined while driving at 3 mph (5 km/h) or above, and reduce your vehicle
speed when a collision is deemed unavoidable to help minimize collision severity.
The system provides visual and audible alerts if you
do not take appropriate action to avoid a collision.
If a collision with an oncoming vehicle is detected,
the system provides rapid vibrations on the steering
wheel in addition to the visual and audible alerts.
Important Safety Reminder
CMBS is designed to reduce the severity of an unavoidable collision. It does not
prevent collision nor stop the vehicle automatically. It is still your responsibility to
operate the brake pedal and steering wheel appropriately according to the driving
conditions.

The rear camera view is restricted. You cannot see the corner ends of the bumper or what is underneath
the bumper. Its unique lens also makes objects appear closer or farther than they actually are.
Visually confirm that it is safe to drive before backing up. Certain conditions (such as weather, lighting,
and high temperatures) may also restrict the rear view. Do not rely on the rearview display, which does

Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA®)
Also known as Electronic Stability Control (ESC), VSA helps to stabilize the vehicle
during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less than what was intended. It assists
in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces by regulating engine output and
selectively applying the brakes.
Turning VSA On or Off
VSA is turned on every time you turn on the vehicle. If you turn VSA off, your
vehicle has normal braking and cornering ability, but not VSA traction and
stability enhancement.
Press and hold the VSA
OFF button until
you hear
a beep to turn VSA on or off. The VSA OFF indicator
appears when the system is off.
When VSA is off, traction control stops functioning,
which allows the wheels to spin more freely at low
speed. This can be helpful when trying to free your
vehicle if it is stuck in mud or snow.
