ACTIVE SAFETY
SYSTEMS
The vehicle may be equipped with the
following active safety devices:
Anti-Lock Braking (ABS) System
Drive Train Control (DTC) System
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)
System
Traction Control System (TCS)
Panic Brake Assist (PBA) System
Hill Start Assist (HSA) System
Dynamic Steering Torque (DST)
System
Active Torque Vectoring (ATV)
System
For the operation of the systems, see
the following pages.
Anti-Lock Braking (ABS)
System
An integral part of the braking system,
the ABS prevents one or more wheels
from locking and slipping in all road
surface conditions, regardless of the
intensity of the braking action. The
system ensures that the vehicle can be
controlled even during emergency
braking, allowing the driver to optimize
stopping distances.
The system intervenes during braking
when the wheels are about to lock,
typically in emergency braking or
low-grip conditions where locking may
be more frequent. The system also improves control and
stability of the vehicle when braking on
a surface where the grip of the left and
right wheels varies, such as in a corner.
The Electronic Braking Force
Distribution (EBD) system works with
the ABS, allowing the brake force to be
distributed between the front and rear
wheels.
System Intervention
The ABS equipped on this vehicle is
provided with the "Brake-by-wire"
(Integrated Brake System - IBS)
function. With this system, the
command given by pressing the brake
pedal is not transmitted hydraulically,
but electrically. Therefore, the light
pulsation that is felt on the pedal with
the traditional system is no longer
noticeable.
Warning!
The ABS contains sophisticated
electronic equipment that may be
susceptible to interference caused by
improperly installed or high output radio
transmitting equipment. This interference
can cause possible loss of anti-lock braking
capability. Installation of such equipment
should be performed by qualified
professionals.
Pumping of the Anti-Lock Brakes will
diminish their effectiveness and may lead to
a collision. Pumping makes the stopping distance longer. Just press firmly on your
brake pedal when you need to slow down
or stop.
The ABS cannot prevent the natural
laws of physics from acting on the vehicle,
nor can it increase braking or steering
efficiency beyond that afforded by the
condition of the vehicle brakes and tires or
the traction afforded.
The ABS cannot prevent collisions,
including those resulting from excessive
speed in turns, following another vehicle
too closely, or hydroplaning.
The capabilities of an ABS equipped
vehicle must never be exploited in a
reckless or dangerous manner that could
jeopardize the user’s safety or the safety of
others.
Drive Train Control
(DTC) System — If
Equipped
Some models of this vehicle are
equipped with an All-Wheel Drive
system (AWD), which offers an optimal
drive for countless driving conditions
and road surfaces. The system reduces
the slipping of the tires to a minimum,
automatically redistributing the torque
to the front and rear wheels as needed.
To maximize fuel savings, the vehicle
with AWD automatically passes to
rear-wheel drive (RWD) when the road
and environmental conditions are such
that they wouldn't cause the tires to
slip. When the road and environmental

SAFETY

Rear View
The system detects vehicles coming
from the rear part of your vehicle on
both sides and entering the rear
detection area with a difference in
speed of less than 31 mph (50 km/h)
with relation to your vehicle.
Overtaking Vehicles
If another vehicle is overtaken slowly,
with a difference in speed of less than
approximately 15 mph (25 km/h) and
the vehicle stays in the blind spot for
approximately 1.5 seconds, the
warning light on the door mirror of the
corresponding side lights up.
If the difference in speed between the
two vehicles is greater than
approximately 15 mph (25 km/h), the
warning light does not light up.
Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP)
System
This system helps the driver during
reverse maneuvers in the case of
reduced visibility.
The RCP system monitors the rear
detection areas on both sides of the
vehicle to detect objects moving
towards the sides of the vehicle, with a
minimum speed between approximately
1 mph (1 km/h) and 2 mph (3 km/h)
and objects moving at a maximum
speed of 21 mph (35 km/h), in areas
such as parking lots.
The system activation is signaled to the
driver by a visual and acoustic warning.Note:
If the sensors are covered by
objects or vehicles, the system will not
warn the driver.
Warning!
Rear Cross Path Detection (RCP) is not a
back up aid system. It is intended to be
used to help a driver detect an oncoming
vehicle in a parking lot situation. Drivers
must be careful when backing up, even
when using RCP. 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. Failure to do so
can result in serious injury or death.
Operating Mode
The system may be activated/
deactivated via the Connect system. To
access the function, select the following
items on the main menu in sequence:
"Settings", "Safety" and "Blind Spot
Alert".
"Blind Spot Alert", "Visual" Mode
When the system is enabled, a visual
warning is sent to the door mirror on
the side of the detected object.
The visual warning on the mirror will
blink if the driver switches on the
direction indicators, thus indicating the
intention to change lane.
The warning will be fixed if the driver
stays in the same lane. "Blind Spot Alert" Function
Deactivation
When the system is deactivated ("Blind
Spot Alert" mode off), the BSM or RCP
systems will not emit either acoustic or
visual warnings.
The BSM system will store the
operating mode running when the
engine was stopped. Each time the
engine is started, the operating mode
stored previously will be recalled and
used.
General Information
This vehicle has systems that operate
on radio frequency that comply with
Part 15 of the Federal Communications
Commission (FCC) rules and with
Industry Canada Standards RSS-
GEN/210/220/310.
Operation is subject to the following
two conditions:
1. The device may not cause harmful
interference.
2. The device must accept any
interference received, including
interference that may cause undesired
operation of the device.
Changes or modifications to any of
these systems by other than an
authorized service facility could void
authorization to use this equipment.
101

Caution!
The TPMS has been optimized for the
original equipment tires and wheels. TPMS
pressures and warning have been
established for the tire size equipped on
your vehicle. Undesirable system operation
or sensor damage may result when using
replacement equipment that is not of the
same size, type, and/or style. Aftermarket
wheels can cause sensor damage.
Using aftermarket tire sealants may
cause the Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS) sensor to become inoperable. After
using an aftermarket tire sealant it is
recommended that you take your vehicle to
an authorized dealership to have your
sensor function checked.
After inspecting or adjusting the tire
pressure always reinstall the valve stem
cap. This will prevent moisture and dirt
from entering the valve stem, which could
damage the TPMS sensor.
INSUFFICIENT TIRE PRESSURE
INDICATION
If an insufficient pressure value is
detected on one or more tires, the
warning light in the instrument
cluster will display alongside the
dedicated messages, the system will
highlight the tire or tires with insufficient
pressure graphically, and an acoustic
signal will be emitted. In this case, stop the car, check the
inflation pressure of each tire, and
inflate the necessary tire or tires to the
correct cold inflation pressure value,
shown on the display or in the
dedicated TPMS menu.
TPMS TEMPORARILY DISABLED
TPMS Check Message
When a system fault is detected, the
“Tire Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”
will flash on and off for 75 seconds, and
then remain on solid. The system fault
will also sound a chime. If the ignition is
cycled, this sequence will repeat,
provided that the system fault still
exists. The “Tire Pressure Monitoring
Telltale Light” will turn off when the fault
condition no longer exists. A system
fault can occur due to any of the
following:
Jamming due to electronic devices
or driving next to facilities emitting the
same radio frequencies as the TPMS
sensors.
Installing some form of aftermarket
window tinting that affects radio wave
signals.
Lots of snow or ice around the
wheels or wheel housings.
Using tire chains on the vehicle.
Using wheels/tires not equipped with
TPMS sensors. After the punctured tire has been
repaired with the original tire sealant
contained in the TireKit, the previous
condition must be restored so that the
warning light is off during normal
driving.
TPMS Deactivation
The TPMS can be deactivated by
replacing all four wheel and tire
assemblies (road tires) with wheel and
tire assemblies that do not have TPMS
Sensors, such as when installing winter
wheel and tire assemblies on your
vehicle.
To deactivate the TPMS, first replace all
four wheel and tire assemblies (road
tires) with tires not equipped with Tire
Pressure Monitoring (TPM) Sensors.
Then, drive the vehicle for 10 minutes
above 15 mph (24 km/h). The TPMS
will chime, the "TPM Telltale Light" will
flash on and off for 75 seconds and
then remain on. The instrument cluster
will display the “SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM” message and then display
dashes (--) in place of the pressure
values.
Beginning with the next ignition switch
cycle, the TPMS will no longer chime or
display the “SERVICE TPM SYSTEM”
message in the instrument cluster.
Instead, dashes (--) will remain in place
of the pressure values.
To reactivate the TPMS, replace all four
wheel and tire assemblies (road tires)
with tires equipped with TPM sensors.
107

Then, drive the vehicle for up to
10 minutes above 15 mph (24 km/h).
The TPMS will chime, the "TPM Telltale
Light" will flash on and off for
75 seconds and then turn off. The
instrument cluster will display the
“SERVICE TPM SYSTEM” message
and then display pressure values in
place of the dashes. On the next
ignition switch cycle the "SERVICE TPM
SYSTEM" message will no longer be
displayed, as long as no system fault
exists.
Note:
The TPMS is not intended to
replace normal tire care and
maintenance, or to provide warning of
a tire failure or condition.
The TPMS should not be used as a
tire pressure gauge while adjusting
your tire pressure.
Driving on a significantly
underinflated tire will cause the tire to
overheat, and can lead to tire failure.
Underinflation also reduces fuel
efficiency and tire tread life, and may
affect the vehicle’s handling and
stopping ability.
The TPMS is not a substitute for
proper tire maintenance, and it is the
driver’s responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure using an
accurate tire pressure gauge, even if underinflation has not reached the level
to trigger illumination of the “Tire
Pressure Monitoring Telltale Light”.
Seasonal temperature changes will
affect tire pressure, and the TPMS will
monitor the actual tire pressure in the
tire.
