REAR VIEW CAMERA*The feature provides a video image of
the area behind the vehicle. The image
automatically appears in the touchscreen
when the vehicle is in reverse (R) and
operates at speeds below 3 mph (5 km/h).
The system uses green, yellow and red
guides to alert you of your proximity
to objects.
ADAPTIVE STEERING* The adaptive steering system optimizes
your vehicle’s steering based on your
steering wheel input, changes in vehicle
speed and other conditions. You can change
the settings in the information display. Refer
to your Owner’s Manual for more details.
Note: The adaptive steering system includes
a locking device that may make a sound
when you start or switch off your vehicle.
This is completely normal.
BLIS® (BLIND SPOT
INFORMATION SYSTEM)
WITH CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT*
BLIS aids you in detecting vehicles that
may have entered into your blind spot area
on both sides of the vehicle, extending
rearward from the exterior mirrors to
approximately 10 feet (3 meters) beyond
the bumper. Cross traffic alert warns you of vehicles
approaching from the sides when the
transmission is in reverse (R). It detects
approaching vehicles from approximately
46 feet (14 meters) away.
The Blind Spot Information and cross traffic
alert systems illuminate a yellow alert
indicator in the outside mirror on the side
of your vehicle the approaching vehicle is
coming from. In addition, the yellow alert
indicator flashes if the direction indicator
is ON when a Blind Spot Warning System
alert is active.
Note: The alert indicator dims when the
system detects nighttime darkness.
Cross traffic alert also sounds a series
of tones and a message appears in the
information display indicating a vehicle is
coming from the right or left.
NEVER use
BLIS or cross traffic alert as a replacement
for using the interior and exterior mirrors and
looking over your shoulder before changing
lanes. The systems are not replacements
for careful driving. Use both systems only
as an assist.

FUNCTION

FRONT AND REAR PARKING AIDS*
The front sensors are active when the
transmission is in any position other than park (P). When your vehicle approaches an object, a warning tone sounds. When your vehicle moves closer to an object, the warning tone repeat rate increases.
The rear sensors are only active when the transmission is in reverse (R). As your vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the rate of the audible warning increases.

Note: Visibility aids do not replace the need to watch where the vehicle is moving. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for safety information, more details and limitations.
LANE KEEPING SYSTEM*This system notifies you to stay in your
lane through the steering system and the
instrument cluster display when the front
camera detects an unintentional drift out of
your lane is likely to occur.
Select from three notification modes within
your information display:
Alert: Provides a steering wheel vibration.
Aid: Provides an assistance steering torque
input toward the lane center.
Alert + Aid: Provides an assistance steering
torque input toward the lane center. If your
vehicle continues drifting out of the lane,
the system provides a steering
wheel vibration.
Press the
button located on the left
steering wheel lever to switch the system
ON or OFF.
DRIVER ALERT* The system automatically
monitors your driving behavior
using various inputs including
the front camera sensor. If the
system detects that your driving alertness
is reduced below a certain threshold, the
system will alert you using a tone and a
message in the cluster display. Switch the system on or off using the
information display. When activated, the
system monitors your alertness level based
upon your driving behavior in relation to the
lane markings and other factors.
See the Driving Aids chapter in your
Owner’s Manual for more information.
TILTING HEAD RESTRAINTS* The front head restraints tilt for extra
comfort. To tilt the head restraint, do
the following:
1.
Adjust the seatback to an upright driving
or riding position.
2. Pivot the head restraint forward toward
your head to the desired position.
After the head restraint
reaches the forward-
most tilt position,
pivoting it forward
again releases it to
the rearward,
un-tilted position.
