Helpful Hints for Speaking Commands
Voice recognition identifies commands that
are naturally stated in sentence form,
or direct commands that state the
application and the task.
For best results:
.Speak the command naturally, not too
fast, not too slow.
.Use direct commands without a lot of
extra words. For example, “Call
at work,” “Play” followed by the artist or
song name, or “Play”followed by the
radio station number. Direct commands are more clearly
understood by the system. An example of a
direct command is
“Dial .”
If a cell phone number was saved with a
name and a place, the direct command
should include both. For example “Call
at work.”
Voice Recognition for the Radio
When voice is started, the voice recognition
commands for AM, FM, SiriusXM (if
equipped), and media apps (if supported) are
available.
“Play AM” :Tune to the
radio station frequency identified in the
command (like “nine fifty”).
“Play FM” :Tune to the
radio station frequency identified in the
command (like “one oh one point one”).
“Play channel on
SiriusXM” :Tune to the SiriusXM radio
station channel number identified in the
command. This command may require an
online connection.
“Play on Sirius XM” :
Tune to the SiriusXM radio station channel
name identified in the command. This
command may require an online connection. “Play on

Turning the Feature On or Off
Bicyclist Detection can be turned on or off
through vehicle settings. To view available
settings from the infotainment screen, touch
Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection
Systems.
Blind Zone Steering Assist (BZSA)
If equipped, the Blind Zone Steering Assist
(BZSA) system can detect a potential crash
with a moving vehicle in the lane you are
entering. It provides a brief, urgent turn of
the steering wheel to alert you to take
action to avoid a collision.
BZSA works with the Lane Keep Assist (LKA).
BZSA operates when the vehicle is in a
forward gear, and only when LKA is enabled
and able to assist. SeeLane Keep Assist
(LKA) 0245.
BZSA will provide a steering correction when
your vehicle is about to leave the current
lane of travel, with the possibility of a
collision with a vehicle in the adjacent lane.
This steering correction happens closer to
the center of the lane and has a stronger
steering correction than LKA. Unlike LKA, the
steering correction with BSZA will happen
even if your turn signal is on in the
direction of lane departure. In addition to the BZSA steering
intervention, the
Awill turn amber, six
beeps or six seat pulses will occur,
if equipped with Safety Alert Seat, and
8or|will flash on the outside
rear view mirror.
{Warning
Do not rely on Blind Zone Steering Assist
(BZSA) to prevent crashes. This system
does not replace the need to pay
attention and drive safely. Failure to use
proper care when driving may result in
vehicle damage, injury, or death.
.BZSA performance may be affected by
weather and road conditions.
.BZSA does not provide steering
assistance to avoid a vehicle that is in,
or has entered, your lane of travel.
.BZSA will not prevent a towed trailer
from crossing into the adjacent lane.
Always monitor the trailer position
while towing to ensure it is in the
same lane as your vehicle. BZSA is
only designed to detect when your
vehicle unintentionally crosses
detected lane lines.
Traffic Sign Assistant
If equipped, Traffic Sign Assistant recognizes
designated traffic signs via the front camera
located behind the windshield in front of the
interior rear view mirror, and displays the
detected speed limit in the Driver
Information Center (DIC). Additionally, speed
limit information from the navigation
system map database may be used.
Caution
The system is intended to assist the
driver within a defined speed range to
discern certain traffic signs. Always pay
attention to posted speed limit signs.
Do not ignore traffic signs which are not
displayed by the system.
The system does not discern any signs
other than the conventional traffic signs
that might give or end a speed limit.
It may not detect some electronic speed
signs.

Caution (Continued)
Depending on the weather conditions or
problems with traffic signs, a traffic sign
may not be recognized or a sign different
from the actual traffic sign may be
displayed.
Do not let this special feature tempt you
into taking risks when driving.
Always adapt vehicle speed to the road
conditions.
Driver assistance systems do not relieve
the driver from full responsibility for
vehicle operation.
Traffic signs that are detected are:
.Speed Limit
.Constraint Signs
Display Indication
The currently detected speed limit is
displayed in the DIC until the next speed
limit or end of speed limit sign is detected.
Depending on the vehicle, the current valid
speed limit is permanently displayed on the
DIC or in the upper left of the instrument
cluster. A
(–) symbol in a frame indicates there is a
sign detected which cannot be clearly
identified by the system.
A (/) symbol in a frame indicates that the
feature is turned off or has failed.
See Driver Information Center (DIC) 0111.

Navigation System Traffic Sign Detection
The currently displayed sign can either
originate from sign detection using the
camera, or from the navigation system map
data. If the currently displayed sign
originates from map data and the map
information changes, a new sign will be
displayed. This may lead to detection of a
new sign although no sign on the road may
have been passed. If the map data is
unavailable, Traffic Sign Assistant will turn
off automatically.

Limitations
Traffic sign memory may not operate
correctly if:
.The area of the windshield, where the
front camera is located, is not clean or is
affected by foreign objects, e.g. stickers,
window tinting, etc.
.Traffic signs are completely or partially
covered, are too low or high or difficult to
discern.
.Traffic signs are incorrectly mounted or
are damaged.
.Traffic signs do not comply with the
approved traffic sign standards.
.The speed limit is displayed by certain
types of electronic speed signs.
.There are adverse environmental
conditions, e.g. heavy rain, snow, direct
sunlight or shadows.
.The headlights are dirty or not correctly
aligned when driving at night.
.The navigation map data is out of date.
.The navigation map is unavailable.
Lane Keep Assist (LKA)
If equipped, LKA may help avoid crashes due
to unintentional lane departures. This
system uses a camera to detect lanemarkings. The LKA system can be ready to
assist at speeds between approximately
60 km/h (37 mph) and 180 km/h (112 mph).
On some vehicles, the system will instead
operate above 50 km/h (31 mph). LKA may
assist by gently turning the steering wheel
if the vehicle approaches a detected lane
marking. It may also provide a Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) alert if the vehicle
crosses a detected lane marking. This system
is not intended to keep the vehicle centered
in the lane. LKA will not assist and alert if
the turn signal is active in the direction of
lane departure, or if it detects that you are
accelerating, braking or actively steering.
LKA can be overridden by turning the
steering wheel. If the system detects you
are steering intentionally across a lane
marker, the LDW may not be given. Do not
expect the LDW to occur when you are
intentionally crossing a lane marker.
{Warning
The LKA system does not continuously
steer the vehicle. It may not keep the
vehicle in the lane or give a Lane
Departure Warning (LDW) alert, even if a
lane marking is detected.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
The LKA and LDW systems may not:
.Provide an alert or enough steering
assist to avoid a lane departure or
crash.
.Detect lane markings under poor
weather or visibility conditions. This
can occur if the windshield or
headlamps are blocked by dirt, snow,
or ice; if they are not in proper
condition; or if the sun shines directly
into the camera.
.Detect road edges.
.Detect lanes on winding or hilly roads.
If LKA only detects lane markings on one
side of the road, it will only assist or
provide an LDW alert when approaching
the lane on the side where it has
detected a lane marking. Even with LKA
and LDW, you must steer the vehicle.
Always keep your attention on the road
and maintain proper vehicle position
within the lane, or vehicle damage,
injury, or death could occur. Always keep
the windshield, headlamps, and camera (Continued)
