highway driving. When your cruise control is active, press GAP up or down to select the ga\
p distance. Refer

necessary. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for safety information, more details and limitations.

within three seconds. Press twice again to close or reverse the movement. You can also operate the
liftgate by pressing the button on the instrument panel.

you to park the vehicle.

SELECTSHIFT AUTOMATIC® TRANSMISSION*
Use this feature to change gears
manually. To use, move the gearshift
lever from drive (D) to sport (S).
Depending on your vehicle, use the
thumb switch on the side of your
gearshift lever or paddle shifters on
your steering wheel to make shifts.
With the paddle shifters:
- Pull the right paddle (+) to upshift.

to downshift.

REAR VIEW CAMERA *
This system displays what is behind your vehicle when you place the
transmission in reverse (R). The system uses fixed guidelines that show
your vehicle’s actual path when you back up in a straight line. This can
be helpful when backing into a parking space or aligning the vehicle with
another object directly behind you.
REVERSE SENSING SYSTEM
This system sounds a warning tone if there is an obstacle near the
vehicle’s rear bumper when the vehicle is in reverse (R) and is traveling
less than 3 mph (5 km/h). The warning tone increases in frequency as
the object gets closer.
Note: Visibility aids do not replace the need to watch where
the vehicle is moving. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for safety
information, details and limitations.
BLIND SPOT INFORMATION SYSTEM (BLIS®)
WITH CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT *
BLIS uses radar sensors to help you determine if a vehicle may be in your
blind spot zone. Cross traffic alert alerts you if a car is coming toward
you as you back out of a parking space. Both features display a yellow
indicator light in your exterior mirrors. Cross traffic alert also sounds an
alarm and displays messages to warn you from which direction vehicles
are approaching. Refer to the Driving Aids chapter in your Owner’s
Manual for more information.
