Due to the nature of radar technology, it is
possible to get a blockage warning with no
actual block. This happens, for example,
when driving in sparse rural or desert
environments. A false blocked condition
either self clears, or clears after you restart
your vehicle.
Switching to Normal Cruise
Control
WARNING: Normal cruise control
will not brake when your vehicle is
approaching slower vehicles. Always be
aware of which mode you have selected
and apply the brakes when necessary.
You can change from adaptive cruise
control to normal cruise control through
the information display. The cruise control indicator light
replaces the adaptive cruise
control indicator light if you
select normal cruise control. The gap
setting does not display, and the system
does not respond to lead vehicles.
Automatic braking remains active to
maintain set speed.
Using Lane Centering WARNING: You are responsible for
controlling your vehicle at all times. The
system is designed to be an aid and does
not relieve you of your responsibility to
drive with due care and attention. Failure
to follow this instruction could result in
the loss of control of your vehicle,
personal injury or death. WARNING:
Pay close attention to
changing road conditions such as
entering or leaving a highway, on roads
with intersections or roundabouts, roads
without visible lanes of travel, roads that
are winding, slippery, unpaved, or steep
slopes. WARNING:
Do not use the system
in poor visibility, for example fog, heavy
rain, spray or snow. WARNING:
Large contrasts in
outside lighting can limit sensor
performance. WARNING:
The sensor may
incorrectly track lane markings as other
structures or objects. This can result in
a false or missed warning. WARNING:
Do not use the system
when towing a trailer. Failure to follow
this instruction could result in the loss of
control of your vehicle, personal injury or
death.
The system is designed to help keep your
vehicle in the center of the lane by applying
continuous assistance steering torque
input toward the lane center on highways.
Note: The assistance steering torque is
limited and may not be sufficient for all
driving situations.
Note: In exceptional conditions, the system
may deviate from the center line.
The system only activates when the all of
the following occur:
• You have adaptive cruise control with
stop-and-go on.
• The system detects both lane
markings.
• Your hands are on the steering wheel
at all times.

Note:
The system may not function if the
front camera or sensor is blocked or not
available.
Switching Lane Centering On and Off Press and release the button.
The indicator appears in the information
display. When the system is on, the color
of the indicator changes to indicate the
system status.
Gray indicates the system is on but
inactive.
Green indicates the system is active and
applying assistance steering torque input
to keep your vehicle in the center of the
lane.
The system activates when it detects valid
lane markings. If it does not detect valid
lane markings, the system stays inactive
until valid markings are available.
The system may not correctly operate in
any of the following conditions:
• Your vehicle is not centered in the lane.
• The lane is too narrow or wide.
• The system does not detect at least
one lane marking or when lanes merge
or split.
• You switch the direction indicator on.
• Limited steering torque input is applied.
• Areas under construction or new
infrastructure.
• When modifications to the steering
system have been made.
• When using a spare tire. When the system is active and detects no
steering activity for a certain period of time,
the system alerts you to put your hands on
the steering wheel. If you do not react to
the warnings the system cancels and slows
your vehicle down to idle speeds while
maintaining steering control.
The system also alerts you if your vehicle
crosses lane markings without detected
steering activity.
Note:
The system may detect a light grip
or touch on the steering wheel as hands-off
driving.
You can override the system at any time
by steering your vehicle.
Automatic Cancellation
When an external condition cancels the
system, for example, no lane markings
available, a tone sounds and a message
appears in the information display. If your vehicle starts to slow
down, you must contribute to
the steering control and press
and release the button to regain full
system performance.
Automatic cancellation can also occur if:
• The lane becomes too wide or too
narrow.
• The system cannot detect valid lane
markings.
• Lane markings are crossed.
Note: The system disables until the next
key cycle if your vehicle slows down due to
driver inactivity twice within a key cycle.
Blocked Sensor WARNING: The system may not
operate properly if the sensor is blocked.
Keep the windshield free from
obstruction.

When you switch the system on and it
detects an unintentional drift out of your
lane is likely to occur, the system notifies
or assists you to stay in your lane through
the steering system and information
display. In Alert mode, the system provides
a warning by vibrating the steering wheel.
In Aid mode, the system provides steering
assistance by gently counter steering your
vehicle back into the lane.
When the system is functioning in the
combined Alert and Aid mode, the system
first provides steering assistance by gently
counter steering your vehicle back into the
lane, followed by a warning that vibrates
the steering wheel if the vehicle is still out
of the lane markings.
Switching the System On and Off
Note:
The system on or off setting is stored
until it is manually changed, unless a MyKey
is detected. If the system detects a MyKey,
it defaults to on and the mode sets to alert. Press the button on the direction indicator
stalk to switch the system on or off.
System Settings
The system has optional setting menus
available. The system stores the last
known selection for each of these settings.
You do not need to readjust your settings
each time you switch the system on.
Mode: This setting allows you to select
which of the system features you can
enable. Alert only – Provides a steering wheel
vibration when the system detects an
unintended lane departure.
Aid only – Provides steering assistance
toward the lane center when the system
detects an unintended lane departure.

vehicle, the system provides a steering
wheel vibration.
Note: The alert and aid diagrams illustrate
general zone coverage. They do not provide
exact zone parameters.
Intensity: This setting affects the intensity
of the steering wheel vibration used for the
alert and alert + aid modes. This setting
does not affect the aid mode.
• Low.
• Normal.
• High. System Display If you switch the system on in alert mode,
an overhead graphic of a vehicle with lane
markings appears in the information
display.

Evasive Steering Assist
(If Equipped)
If your vehicle is rapidly approaching a
stationary vehicle or a vehicle traveling in
the same direction as your vehicle, the
system is designed to help you steer
around the vehicle.
The system only activates when all of the
following occur:
• The Pre-Collision Assist system detects
a vehicle ahead and starts to apply
Active Braking.
• You turn the steering wheel in an
attempt to steer around the vehicle.
After you turn the steering wheel, the
system applies additional steering torque
to help you steer around the vehicle. After
you pass the vehicle, the system applies
steering torque in the opposite direction to
encourage you to steer back into the lane.
The system deactivates after you fully pass
the vehicle. Note:
The system does not automatically
steer around a vehicle. If you do not turn the
steering wheel, the system does not
activate.
Note: The system does not activate if the
distance to the vehicle ahead is too small
and a crash cannot be avoided.
Adjusting the Pre-Collision Assist
Settings
The following settings can be adjusted by
using the information display controls.
See
General Information (page 105).
• You can change Alert and Distance
Alert sensitivity to one of three possible
settings.
• You can switch Distance Indication and
Alert on or off.
• If required, you can switch Active
Braking on or off.
• If required, you can switch Evasive
Steering Assist on or off.
