To turn the system on or off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Forward Collision System.
Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert – While driv-ing, 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

Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning (Front-Wheel Drive models) – The system may help avoid collisions due to unin-tentional lane departures. The Lane Keep Assist indicator is green if the system is available to assist. If the vehicle approaches a detected lane marking without using a turn signal in that direc-tion, 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 select-ed) on the side of the departure direction as the lane marking is crossed. In order to use this system safely, the driver needs to steer and be in complete control of the vehicle.
To turn the system on or off, press the Lane Keep Assist button on the center of the instrument panel.
Lane Departure Warning (All-Wheel Drive models) – When crossing a detected lane marking without using a turn signal in that direction, the system flashes an amber on the instrument cluster and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or beeps sound (if selected) on the side of the lane departure direction.

Forward Collision Alert – The Vehicle Ahead indicator is green on the instrument cluster when a vehicle is detected and is amber when following a vehicle ahead much too closely.

To set the alert timing, press the Following Gap button on the left side of the steer-ing wheel.
Following Distance Indicator – The following time to the vehicle ahead is indicated in seconds on the Driver Information Center. If no vehicle is detected ahead, dashes are displayed.
