Warning!
Persons who are unable to feel pain to the
skin because of advanced age, chronic
illness, diabetes, spinal cord injury,
medication, alcohol use, exhaustion, or other
physical conditions must exercise care when
using the steering wheel heater. It may
cause burns even at low temperatures,
especially if used for long periods.
Do not place anything on the steering
wheel that insulates against heat, such as a
blanket or steering wheel covers of any type
and material. This may cause the steering
wheel heater to overheat.
MIRRORS
Electrochromic Mirror
This mirror automatically adjusts for
headlight glare from vehicles behind you.
The electrochromic mirror has a power
button to activate/deactivate the
automatic dimming/anti-glare function.

automatically folds the mirrors. The
mirrors return to the driving position
when the vehicle is then unlocked.
If the door mirrors were folded using the
power mirror control knob, they can only
be returned to the driving position by
rotating the knob again.Note:
The power folding operation can
be enabled only when the vehicle speed is
lower than 31 mph (50 km/h).
Automatic Dimming Mirrors — If
Equipped
Like the electrochromic mirror, an
automatic dimming feature is also
available on the outside rear view mirrors
to prevent glare. The automatic dimming
button for these mirrors is the same as
the electrochromic mirror.
Warning!
Vehicles and other objects seen in an outside
convex mirror will look smaller and farther
away than they really are. Relying too much
on side convex mirrors could cause you to
collide with another vehicle or other object.
Use your inside mirror when judging the size
or distance of a vehicle seen in a side convex
mirror.
Heated Mirrors
Push the rear defrostbutton, located
within the climate controls, to activate
the heated mirrors.

Note:Before exiting the vehicle, ensure
that the overhead lights are off. This will
prevent the battery from discharging
once the doors are closed. If a light is left
on accidently, the overhead lights will
turn off automatically approximately
15 minutes after the engine has been
cycled OFF.
Overhead Light Timing
On certain models, to assist getting in
and out of the vehicle at night or in
poorly-lit areas, two timed modes have
been provided.
Timing While Getting Into The Vehicle
— The overhead lights turn on according
to the following modes:
Will illuminate for a few seconds when
the doors are unlocked.
Will illuminate for approximately three
minutes when one of the doors is opened.
Will illuminate for a few seconds when
the doors are locked.
Timing is interrupted when the ignition is
cycled to ON mode.
Three Modes Are Available For Turning
Off Overhead Lighting:
When all doors are closed after
entering the vehicle, the three-minute
timer will stop and a seconds timer will
start for the interior lights. This timing
will stop when the ignition is cycled to ON
mode.
When doors are locked (either with key
fob or with key inserted on driver side
door), the overhead light turns off.
The interior lights will turn off after
15 minutes to preserve the battery.
Timing While Getting Out Of The
Vehicle — After cycling the ignition to
STOP mode, the overhead lights will turn
on as follows:
For a few seconds after the engine
stops.
For approximately three minutes when
one of the doors is opened.
For a few seconds when the last door
is closed.
The timing stops automatically when the
doors are locked.
Vanity Mirror Lights — If Equipped
On the driver and passenger sun visor,
there is a light that illuminates the sun
visor mirror when the sun visor is folded
down and the mirror cover is lifted. The courtesy light turns on automatically
by lifting the cover.Glove Compartment Light
This light turns on automatically when the
glove compartment is opened and turns
off when it is closed.
The light turns on and off regardless of
the ignition status.

to “Rain Sensor” in this section for more
information on how this system
functions.
Windshield Washer Operation
Pull the stalk toward the steering wheel
to operate the windshield washer.
Keep the stalk pulled to activate both the
windshield washer jet and the windshield
wiper with a single movement. The wipers
and washers will continue to operate until
stalk is released.
The windshield wiper stops working three
strokes after the stalk is released,
followed by a final stroke six seconds
later to complete the cycle.
Mist
Use this feature when weather
conditions make occasional usage of the
wipers necessary. Push the stalk upward
to the MIST position and release for a
single wiping cycle. This function is useful
to remove small deposits of dust from
the windshield or morning dew.
Note: This function does not activate the
windshield washer. To spray windshield
washer fluid onto the windshield, the
washing function must be used.
Warning!
Sudden loss of visibility through the
windshield could lead to a collision. You
might not see other vehicles or other
obstacles. To avoid sudden icing of the
windshield during freezing weather, warm
the windshield with the defroster before and
during windshield washer use.
Rain Sensor
The Rain Sensor is located behind the
interior rear view mirror. This feature
senses moisture on the windshield and
automatically activates the wipers for
the driver.
The feature is especially useful for road
splash or over spray from the windshield
washers of the vehicle ahead.

INTERNAL EQUIPMENT
Glove Compartment
To open the glove compartment proceed
as follows:
1. If equipped with a lock, unlock the
glove compartment by placing the
emergency key into the lock on the
handle.
2. Pull the handle to open the glove
compartment.
When the glove compartment is opened,
a light turns on to illuminate the inside of
the compartment.
Note:Do not insert large objects that
prevent the glove compartment from
closing completely. Always make sure
that the glove compartment is
completely closed when driving.
Sun Visors
The sun visors are located at the sides of
the interior rear view mirror. They can be
adjusted forward and sideways.
To direct the visor toward the passenger
side window, detach the visor from the
interior rear view mirror side hook and
turn it towards the side window.
From this position, the sun visor can also
be extended toward the rear of the
vehicle for additional blockage of
sunlight.
Courtesy mirrors with lights are fitted on
the back of the sun visors and can be
used even in poor light conditions.
Note: A rear facing child restraint
system should never be fitted in the front
passenger seat. Always comply with the
instructions on the sun visor. Refer to
"Child Restraints" in "Safety" for more
information.
Homelink
Description
Homelink is a fixed system installed on
the vehicle. It can sync up to three
different devices that activate garage
doors, gates, lighting systems, and home
or office alarm systems.
Programming
Warning!
Vehicle exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a dangerous gas. Do not run your
vehicle in the garage while programming the
transceiver. Exhaust gas can cause serious
injury or death.
Your motorized door or gate will open and
close while you are programming the
universal transceiver. Do not program the
transceiver if people, pets or other objects
are in the path of the door or gate. Only use
this transceiver with a garage door opener
that has a “stop and reverse” feature as
required by Federal safety standards. This
includes most garage door opener models
manufactured after 1982. Do not use a
garage door opener without these safety
features. Call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 or,
on the Internet at HomeLink.com for safety
information or assistance.
Note: Without starting the engine,
activate the electric park brake and place
the ignition in the ON position.

Dynamic Steering Torque (DST) System
The DST function uses the integration of
the ESC system with the electric power
steering to increase the safety level of
the whole vehicle.
In critical situations for example (braking
on surfaces with different grip
conditions), the ESC system influences
the steering through the DST function to
implement an additional torque
contribution on the steering wheel in
order to suggest the most correct
maneuver to the driver.
The coordinated action of the brakes and
steering increases the safety and control
of the vehicle.
Note:The DST feature is only meant to
help the driver realize the correct course
of action through small torques on the
steering wheel, which means the
effectiveness of the DST feature is highly
dependent on the driver’s sensitivity and
overall reaction to the applied torque. It
is very important to realize that this
feature will not steer the vehicle,
meaning the driver is still responsible for
steering the vehicle.
Active Torque Vectoring (ATV) System
The dynamic drive control is used to
optimize and balance the drive torque
between the wheels of the same axles.
The ATV system improves the grip in
turns, sending more drive torque to the
external wheel.
Given that, in a turn, the external wheels
of the car travel more than the internal
ones and therefore turn faster, sending a
higher thrust to the external rear wheel
allows for the car to be more stable and
to not suffer an "understeer" condition.
Understeer occurs when the vehicle is
turning less than appropriate for the
steering wheel position.
AUXILIARY DRIVING SYSTEMS
The following auxiliary driving systems
are available in this vehicle:
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
Forward Collision Warning Plus
(FCW+)
Tire Pressure Monitoring System
(TPMS)
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) System
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system
uses two radar sensors, located in the
rear bumper (one on each side), to detect
the presence of other vehicles in the rear
side blind spots of your vehicle.
The system warns the driver about the
presence of other vehicles in the
detection area by illuminating the
warning light located within the door
mirror on the side in which the other
vehicle was detected.
0403132303USRear Sensor Location
107
Page 110 of 276
When the engine is started, the warning
light illuminates briefly to signal the
driver that the system is active.
Sensors
The sensors are activated when any
forward gear is engaged at a speed
higher than approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h) or when REVERSE is engaged.
The sensors are temporarily deactivated
when the vehicle is stationary or the
vehicle is in PARK (P).
The detection area of the system covers
approximately a lane on both sides of the
vehicle which is around 9 feet (3 m).
This area begins from the door mirror and
extends for approximately 19 feet (6 m)
toward the rear part of the vehicle.
When the sensors are active, the system
monitors the detection areas on both
sides of the vehicle and warns the driver
about the possible presence of vehicles
in these areas.While driving, the system monitors the
detection area from three different input
points (side, rear and front) to check
whether an alert needs to be sent to the
driver. The system can detect the
presence of a vehicle in one of these
three areas.
Note:
The system does not alert the driver
of the presence of fixed objects (e.g.
safety barriers, poles, walls, etc.).
However, in some circumstances, the
system may activate in the presence of
these objects. This is normal and does
not indicate a system malfunction.
The system does not alert the driver
about the presence of vehicles coming
from the opposite direction, in the
adjacent lanes.
Warning!
The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only an
aid to help detect objects in the blind spot
zones. The BSM system is not designed to
detect pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals.
Even if your vehicle is equipped with the
BSM system, always check your vehicle’s
mirrors, glance over your shoulder, and use
your turn signal before changing lanes.
Failure to do so can result in serious injury or
death.
Note:
For the system to operate properly,
the rear bumper area where the radar
sensors are located must stay free from
snow, ice and dirt gathered from the
road surface.
Do not cover the rear bumper area
where the radar sensors are located with
any object (e.g. adhesives, bike rack,
etc.).
If you wish to install a rear tow eye
after purchasing the vehicle, you will
need to deactivate the system via the
Information and Entertainment System.
To access the function, select the
following items in sequence on the main
menu:
1. “Settings.”
2. “Safety.”
3. “Blind Spot Alert.”
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) in relation to your vehicle.0434132127USBSM Indicator Light
