DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Safety or driver assistance features are no substitute for the driver’s responsibility to operate the vehicle in a safe manner. The driver should remain attentive to traffic, surroundings and road conditions at all times. Read your Owner’s Manual for important feature limitations and information\
.
Safety Alert Seat♦ – The driver’s seat pulses (left side, right side, or simultaneously) to alert you of the direction of potential hazards.
Audible alerts may be selected instead of seat pulsing alerts. To change the alert settings, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Alert Type.
Forward Collision Alert♦ – The Vehicle Ahead Indicator is green when a vehicle is detected and is amber when following a vehicle ahead much too closely. When approaching a vehicle direct-ly ahead too
rapidly, a red alert flashes on the windshield and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or rapid beeps sound (if selected).
Press the Collision Alert button (A) on the steering wheel to set the alert timing to Far, Medium or Near. This is also the Adaptive Cruise Control♦ Follow Distance Gap setting.
Front Pedestrian Braking♦ – During daytime driving, the system detects pedestrians directly ahead up to a distance of approximately 131 ft. and displays an amber indicator. When approaching a detected pedestrian too quickly, a red alert flashes on the windshield and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or rapid beeps sound (if selected). The system may pre-pare the brakes or automatically brake the vehicle, if you have not already done so.
To set to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Front Pedestrian Detection.
Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning♦ – The system may help you avoid collisions due to unintentional lane departures. The Lane Keep Assist Indicator is green if the system is avail-able to assist. If the vehicle approaches a detected lane marking without using a turn signal in that direction, the system may assist by gently turning the steering wheel and displaying an amber .
If active driver steering is not detected, the amber may flash and the Safety Alert Seat may pulse or beeps may sound (if selected), on the side of the departure direction as the lane marking is crossed. The Lane Keep Assist system does not continuously steer the vehicle; the driver needs to steer and be in complete control of the vehicle.
Press the Lane Keep Assist button (B) on the steering wheel to turn the system on or off.
Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert♦ – While driving, the system displays a warning symbol on the left or right side
mirror when a vehicle is detected in that side blind zone area or rap-idly approaching that area. The warning symbol flashes if a turn sig-nal is activated when a vehicle has been detected on the same side.
To turn the system on or off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Lane Change Alert.
Forward/Reverse Automatic Braking♦ – In potential front- and rear-end imminent collision situations with vehicles directly ahead or behind, and with some objects behind your vehicle, the brakes may be applied, if you have not already done so, to help reduce the collision&#39;s severity or help avoid collisions at very low speeds.
To set Forward Automatic Braking and Forward Collision Alert to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Forward Collision System.
To turn Reverse Automatic Braking, Park Assist, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert on or off, press the Park Assist
button on the left side of the infotainment screen.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner&#39;s Manual.

information on the Driver Information Center and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or a beep sounds (if selected). When an object is very close, the Safety Alert Seat pulses or 5 beeps sound (if selected).
Rear Cross Traffic Alert♦ – When the vehicle is in Reverse, the system warns of cross-traffic coming in either direction by display-ing a red alert on the infotainment screen and the left or right side of the Safety Alert Seat pulses or beeps sound (if selected).
To turn the Park Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Alert systems on or off, press the Park Assist button (A) on the left side of the infotain-ment screen.
Front♦ and Rear Vision Camera – When the vehicle is in Reverse, a view of the area behind the vehicle displays on the infotainment screen. After shifting from Reverse to Drive, a view of the area in front of the vehicle displays. Vehicle speed must be below 5 mph.
Touch Camera (B) on the infotainment screen to activate the front camera when the vehicle is in Drive.
Surround Vision♦ – The Surround Vision system displays a rear or front camera view along with a view of the area surrounding the vehicle on the infotainment screen when the vehicle is in Reverse or Drive below 5 mph.
