direction behind the vehicle by displaying a visual alert on the CUE touch screen and the left or right side of the driver’s seat pulses.*

Driver Assist Package♦ (includes Driver Awareness Package)
Front and Rear Automatic Braking – Applies the brakes in potential collision situations to help reduce damage or help avoid collisions at lower speeds.
Press the Parking Assist button on the right side of the CUE touch screen to turn Rear Automatic Braking on or off.
Adaptive Cruise Control – If a vehicle is detected ahead, the vehicle accelerates or brakes moderately to maintain the selected following gap. If driver action is required, a visual alert flashes on the windshield and the driver’s seat pulses.*
Press the Follow Distance Gap button on the left side of the steering wheel to set a following gap.
Automatic Collision Preparation – Prepares the brakes or applies the brakes if an emergency collision appears imminent or the driver does not react to previous alerts.
Automatic Safety Belt Tightening – When the vehicle starts moving, gently removes slack from the front safety belts. At higher speeds, tightens the front safety belts during emergency, hard braking or steering maneuvers.
The driver awareness and assist systems are based on a “control and a\
