Driver Assistance Systems
The driver assistance features are based on a “control and alert” strategy that helps identify potential collision situations and intervenes when a collision threat appears more imminent, employing visual, audible and/or tactile (vibration) alerts.
Lane Departure Warning – When crossing a detected lane
marking without using a turn signal, a visual alert flashes on the instrument cluster and the left or right side of the driver’s seat pulses. See Safety Alert Seat.
Press the Lane Departure Warning button on the left side of the CUE touch screen to turn the system on or off. The button illuminates when the system is on.
Forward Collision Alert – When approaching a vehicle directly ahead too quickly, a visual alert flashes on the windshield and the driver’s seat pulses. See Safety Alert Seat.
Press the Collision Alert button (or the Follow Distance Gap button if equipped with Adaptive Cruise Control) on the left side of the steering wheel to set the alert timing.
Safety Alert Seat – Subtle seat cushion vibration pulses, left or right, or simultaneously, alert the driver of potential hazards.
Audible notification may be selected instead of Safety Alert Seat vibration notification; to change the setting, go to Collision/Detection Systems in the Vehicle Settings menu.
Rear Vision Camera – When the vehicle is in Reverse, a view of the area behind the vehicle appears on the CUE touch screen.
Luxury Package♦
IntelliBeam® – Automatically turns the high-beam headlamps on or off depending on traffic conditions.
Side Blind Zone Alert – When a vehicle is detected in a side blind spot area, a warning symbol displays on the side mirror.

Rear Cross Traffic Alert – Warns of traffic coming in either direction by displaying a visual alert on the Rear Vision Camera screen, and the left or right side of the driver’s seat pulses. See Safety Alert Seat.
To turn the system on or off, go to Collision/Detection Systems in the Vehicle Settings menu.

moderately to maintain the selected following gap. If driver action is required, a visual alert flashes on the windshield and the
driver’s seat pulses. See Safety Alert Seat.
Press the Follow Distance Gap button on the left side of the steering wheel to set a following gap.
