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 pedestrian or a potential collision with a vehicle in front, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on
the instrument cluster A.
Adjust the alert settings (Early, Normal, Late) in the User Settings. FCA is ON by default
and can be turned OFF in the User Settings menu on the Instrument Cluster display.
If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, FCA automatically applies
the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially helping to avoid or reduce the effects
of a possible collision. FCA can be turned ON in the User Settings menu on the
Instrument Cluster display.
FCA / FCW will become active when the:
• Engine Start /Stop button is ON
• Vehicle is traveling faster than 5 mph
• Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON
REMINDERS:
• The FCA / FCW systems will be activated by default when the ignition is cycled ON, even when the previous setting is OFF
• If the FCA / FCW systems are operating and ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off, the systems are automatically turned off
• When the FCA / FCW systems are off, the FCA-Ped / FCW systems warning indicator is on in the Instrument Cluster
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) / Forward Collision Warning (FCW) are not substitutes for safe driving and may not detect all objects in front of the vehicle. Always drive safely and use caution.
For illustrative purposes only. Your actual display, buttons and/or features may vary.

Voice Recognition* and Phone Contact Tips
The system may have difficulty understanding some
accents or uncommon names. Improve the performance
by making a few simple changes to your phone
contacts, listed below. To help optimize the Bluetooth®
Wireless Technology Voice Recognition system, see
other tips and reminders under Quick Tips.
•Use full names (first and last names) vs. short or
single-syllable names (“John Smith” vs. “Dad,”
“Smith Residence” vs. “Home”)
•Avoid using special characters, emojis or hyphenated
names (@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc.)
•Avoid using acronyms (“In Case of Emergency” vs.
“ICE”) or words with all capital letters
•Spell words completely, no abbreviations (“Doctor
Smith” vs. “Dr. Smith”)
Bluetooth® Wireless Technology†5,23 (continued)
Pairing a Phone
For instructions on how to pair a phone, refer to the
Car Multimedia System User’s Manual or your vehicle’s
Quick Start Guide.
How to Place a Call
When using the voice command feature, wait for the
system BEEP before speaking the command.
There are two options for placing a call:
•Option 1: Press the Receive/Place Call button C
(displays the phone screen with call history)
•Option 2: Press the Talk button* A. Then say the

During the pairing process, be sure to accept the connection requests on the phone for phone book download and to allow acceptance of all future Bluetooth® connection requests.
QUICK TIP

•Bluetooth® Music Streaming – If the Bluetooth® music is inaudible or too low, you may need to turn up the volume on the connected phone
•When placing a call, speak in a natural, moderate tone, with clear pronunciation. The system may have trouble recognizing commands if you speak too softly or too loudly
•Always wait for the beep before speaking any commands
•Close windows and sunroof and turn off A /C – Open windows, sunroof, weather (wind/rain), or an A /C fan operating at higher speeds can interfere with Voice Recognition
•Press the talk button and say “Help” to get a list of available commands
•The system may register or pair multiple Bluetooth® devices. See the Car Multimedia System User’s Manual for more information on setup and limitations.

The Smart Cruise Control with Stop & Go* system is designed to maintain a predetermined distance from vehicles detected
ahead by automatically adjusting the driving speed as needed. When traffic is detected, the vehicle will automatically slow to
maintain a set distance between traffic without depressing the accelerator or brake pedal.
With the SCC on and activated, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set, and the system detects a vehicle slowing or stopping, the system
can bring the vehicle to a complete stop. When the vehicle ahead starts to move forward, the SCC system re-engages. If the vehicle
ahead stops for more than 3 seconds, the accelerator pedal or the RES+ button must be pressed to start moving the vehicle.
To set/adjust the SCC speed:
•Push the CRUISE button A to turn the system ON. The CRUISE indicator will illuminate on the instrument cluster
•Accelerate/decelerate to the desired speed and press lever B down to set the speed
•Press button B down to set the speed. Press the RES+/SET- button B up/down to increase/decrease the set speed
•The SET indicator light, set speed and vehicle-to-vehicle distance will illuminate on the instrument cluster’s LCD screen
To set the vehicle-to-vehicle distance: Press the SCC button C on the steering wheel. The image on the LCD screen D
will change when scrolling through the settings. Each time the button is pressed, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance changes.
To cancel SCC operation: Press the CANCEL button E. The CRUISE indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF.
To turn SCC system OFF: Press the CRUISE button A. The CRUISE indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF.
Smart Cruise Control (SCC) with Stop & Go*†6
REMINDERS: •
The Cruise Control button must be ON in order to turn SCC ON/OFF •
SCC is activated when the ignition is turned on. Speed will need to be reset when the the ignition is cycled •
The cruise control system will not activate until the brake pedal has been depressed at least once after the ignition is ON or engine starting •
The SCC is also canceled when the driver’s door is opened, gear shift is changed out of D (Drive), EPB is activated and various other conditions. See owner’s manual for other conditions •
Keep the system off when not in use to avoid setting a speed which the driver is not aware of. If the SCC system is left on, it can be activated inadvertently. Keep the system off when not in use to avoid setting a speed which the driver is not aware of
The SCC system is a supplemental system and is not a substitute for safe driving. It is the responsibility of the driver to always check the speed and distance to the vehicle ahead.CRUISE100 MPHCRUISE100 MPH
