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.

When in Operation
If a vehicle is detected ahead of you when ACC is turned on, the system
maintains, accelerates, or decelerates your vehicle’s set speed to keep the
vehicle’s set following interval from the vehicle ahead.
If a vehicle detected ahead of you slows down
abruptly, or if another vehicle cuts in front of you,
a beep sounds and BRAKE appears on the multi-
information display to alert you.
When a vehicle detected ahead is within ACC with
low speed follow range and stops, your vehicle also
stops. The Stopped message appears on the multi-
information display.
When the vehicle ahead of you starts again, the
vehicle icon on the multi-information display
blinks. Press RES/+/SET/– up or down, or press the
accelerator pedal to resume the prior set speed.
Exiting a vehicle that has been stopped while the ACC with LSF system is
operating can result in the vehicle moving without operator control. Always
make sure the shift lever is in Park (P) before exiting the vehicle.
A vehicle that moves without operator control can cause a crash, resulting in
serious injury or death.
Never exit a vehicle when the vehicle is stopped by ACC with LSF.
WARNING
ACC has limited braking capability.
When your vehicle speed drops below 22 mph, ACC will automatically cancel
and no longer will apply your vehicle’s brakes.
Always be prepared to apply the brake pedal when conditions require.
WARNING
Improper use of ACC with LSF can lead to a crash.
Use ACC with LSF only when driving on expressways or freeways and in good
weather conditions.
WARNING
Canceling ACCYou can press CANCEL or MAIN, or press the brake
pedal. The ACC indicator goes off.
Certain conditions may cause ACC

to cancel

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.

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.

Road Departure Mitigation (RDM)*
Alerts and helps to assist you if the system determines 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 lane
markings without a turn signal activated, a message
appears in the MID and the system applies steering
torque and rapid vibrations on the steering wheel to
help you remain within the driving lane.
Braking may also be applied if the lane lines are solid

Blind Spot Information (BSI)*
Alerts you to a detected vehicle in your left or right blind spot while driving 20 mph
(32 km/h) or higher.
When a vehicle is detected in your blind spot, the
blind spot indicator turns on and stays lit until the
area is clear.
When your turn signal is on and a vehicle is detected,
the blind spot indicator blinks and a beep sounds until
the area is clear or the turn signal is off.

information system when changing lanes.
Always look in your mirrors, to either side of your vehicle, and behind you for
other vehicles before changing lanes.

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.

nozzle goes down along with the filler pipe.
4.

After
filling, wait about 5 seconds before
removing the filler nozzle. Close the fuel fill door
by hand.
Refueling
Use the proper fuel and refueling procedure to ensure the best performance and
safety of your vehicle.
