Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)†6
The FCA system is designed to detect slowing or stopped
traffic ahead and, under certain conditions, can apply the
brakes in order to help avoid or reduce the effects of a
potential collision. Initially, FCA provides Forward Collision
Warning (FCW ) when it detects a potential collision with a
vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist in front, emitting an audible
warning and visual alert on the instrument cluster.
To activate the systems, go to Vehicle Settings in the audio
head unit and select Vehicle > Driver Assistance > Forward
Safety. Then select Active Assistance, Warning Only or Off.
The initial warning time can be selected when in Vehicle
Settings. Select Vehicle > Driver Assistance > Warning
Timing > Normal/Later.
If the system detects that the collision risk has increased,
the FCA system automatically applies the brakes to reduce
your speed, potentially helping to reduce the effects of a
possible collision. FCA can be turned ON in the User Settings
menu on the Instrument Cluster display.
The FCA / FCW will become active when the:
§ Engine Start /Stop button is ON
§ Vehicle is traveling faster than 6 mph
§ Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON
§ The system detects a vehicle, pedestrian or cyclist in
front
LED Warning Messages:
REMINDERS:
§
The FCA / FCW will be activated by default when the ignition is cycled ON, even when previous setting was OFF
§ If the FCA / FCW are operating and the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off A, the FCA / FCW systems are automatically turned of f.
§ When FCA / FCW system is off, the FCA warning indicator is on in the Instrument Cluster .
The Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) / Forward Collision Warning (FCW) are not substitutes for safe and proper driving. Always drive safely and use Caution.
FCA and FCW may not always alert the driver when the vehicle is approaching another vehicle.

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is designed to help stabilize the vehicle during certain cornering
maneuvers. The Traction Control System ( TCS) can help improve traction. It is a good idea to keep both
ESC and TCS turned on for daily driving whenever possible.
Press the ESC button B to turn the Traction Control System OFF/ON.
To turn both the Electronic Stability Control and Traction Control System OFF, press and hold the ESC button
for more than 3 seconds. Press again to turn ON.
REMINDERS:
§ ESC is active by default at vehicle startup. When the ignition is cycled, ESC will turn ON again
§ The ESC indicator light in the instrument cluster will be lit momentarily whenever ESC is active

Traction Control System (TCS)†8
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC)†8
Hill-Start Assist Control (HAC) is designed to prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards when accelerating from a stop while on a steep incline.
HAC automatically activates whether ESC is OFF or ON but does NOT
activate when ESC has malfunctioned.
Quick Tip
When HAC is active (e.g., during initial acceleration from a stop on an incline), you may notice that the brakes will momentarily remain engaged after you depress the accelerator.
REMINDERS:
§ HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in the P (Park) or N (Neutral) position
§ HAC does not replace the need to apply brakes while stopped on an incline
With the parking lights/headlights ON, press A (+) or (-) to adjust the
brightness of the Instrument panel illumination.
Instrument Cluster Control
REMINDER: The Instrument Cluster Control (Instrument Panel Dimmer) does not adjust brightness on the audio system screen. Use the audio system setup to adjust brightness on the audio system.
