DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
SAFETY ALERT SEAT – The driver’s seat pulses (left, right, or both sides) to alert you of the direction of potential hazards.
Audible alerts may be selected instead of seat pulsing alerts. To change the alert settings, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Alert Type.
LANE CHANGE ALERT WITH SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT♦ – While driving, the system displays a symbol on the left or right side mirror when a moving vehicle is detected rapidly approaching or is in a side blind zone. The symbol flashes if a turn signal is activated when a vehicle has been detected on the same side.
To turn the system on or off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Lane Change Alert.
LANE KEEP ASSIST WITH LANE DEPARTURE WARNING♦ – The system may help you avoid collisions due to unintentional lane departures. The Lane Keep Assist Indicator is green if the
system is available to assist. If the vehicle approaches a detected lane marking without using a turn signal in that direction, the
system may assist by providing brief, gentle steering wheel turns and displaying an amber indicator.
If active driver steering is not detected, the amber indicator may flash and the Safety Alert Seat may pulse or beeps may sound (if selected) on the side of the departure direction as the lane mark-ing is crossed. In order to use this system safely, the driver needs to \
steer and be in complete control of the vehicle.
Press the Lane Keep Assist button (A) on the center of the instrument panel to turn the system on or off.
FORWARD COLLISION ALERT – The Vehicle Ahead Indicator is green when a vehicle is detected and is amber when following a vehicle ahead much too closely. When approaching a vehicle directly ahead too rapidly, a red alert flashes on the windshield and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or rapid beeps sound (if selected).
Press the Forward Collision Alert button on the steering wheel to set the alert timing to Far, Medium or Near. This is also the Adaptive Cruise Control–Advanced♦ Following Gap
setting.
FOLLOWING DISTANCE INDICATOR♦ – The following distance to the vehicle ahead is indicated in seconds under the Info menu on the Driver Information Center. If no vehicle is detected ahead, dashes are displayed.
AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING – In detected potential immi-nent collision situations with vehicles directly ahead, the system can provide alerts and enhance driver braking or automatically apply hard emergency braking, if you have not already done so, to help reduce the severity or help avoid collisions at very low speeds.
To set Automatic Emergency Braking and Forward Collision Alert to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Forward Collision System.
FRONT PEDESTRIAN BRAKING – During daytime driving, the
system detects pedestrians directly ahead and displays an amber indicator. When approaching a detected pedestrian too quickly, a red alert flashes on the windshield and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or rapid beeps sound (if selected). The system may prepare the brakes or automatically apply hard emergency braking, if you have not already done so.
To set to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Front Pedestrian Detection.
