BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW) SYSTEM (if so equipped)
The BSW system alerts the driver when another
vehicle moves into the vehicle’s blind spot area.
An indicator light located near the outside mirrors
1 will illuminate if the radar sensors detect a
vehicle in the detection zone.
The indicator light 2 will illuminate after the
ignition switch is ON and the BSW system is enabled.
This indicates that the BSW system is operational.
For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.
VEHICLE DYNAMIC CONTROL (VDC)
Always make sure the VDC is ON by ensuring the VDC OFF light
is not on before driving the vehicle.
The VDC OFF 1 switch should only be used briefly to help free
the vehicle if it is stuck in snow or mud.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)“ and the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.
PREDICTIVE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING (PFCW) SYSTEM
(if so equipped)
The PFCW system can help alert the driver of sudden braking by a second vehicle
traveling ahead of the vehicle in the same lane.
If there is a potential risk, the PFCW will warn the driver with a blinking driver assist
system forward indicator and an audible warning tone will be heard.
For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” in your Owner’s Manual.

HILL START ASSIST (HSA) SYSTEM
The HSA system allows time for the driver to release the brake pedal and apply the
accelerator when the vehicle is parked on a hill. The brakes are applied automatically
for 2 seconds after the driver releases the brake pedal.
The Hill Start Assist system will operate automatically under these conditions:
• The shift lever is shifted into a forward or a reverse gear.
• The vehicle is stopped completely on a hill by applying the brake.
The Hill Start Assist system will not operate when the shift lever is in the N (Neutral)
or P (Park) position or when the vehicle is on a flat and level road.
For more information, refer to the “Starting and driving (section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.
