Safety/Assistance
After pressing the “Safety/Assistance” button on the
touchscreen the following settings will be available:
Setting NameSelectable Options
Forward Collision Warning — If Equipped Near
Far
NOTE:
The Front Collision Warning (FCW) feature provides an audible and/or visual warning to potential forward colli-
sions. The feature can be set to Far, or set to Near. The default status of FCW is the Far setting. This means the sys-
tem will warn you of a possible collision with the vehicle in front of you when you are farther away. This gives you
the most reaction time. To change the setting for more dynamic driving, select the Near setting. This warns you of a
possible collision when you are much closer to the vehicle in front of you.
Power Steering— If Equipped Normal Comfort Sport
NOTE:
When your vehicle is not equipped with Performance Control, the Steering Feel Options feature will allow you to ad-
just the steering effort and feel. Press the “Sport” button on the touchscreen to provide the greatest amount of steer-
ing feel, requiring the highest amount of steering effort. Press the “Normal” button on the touchscreen to provide
greater steering feel, requiring greater steering effort. Press the “Comfort” button on the touchscreen to provide a bal-
ance of steering feel and steering effort.
