Rear View Camera
Provides a video image of the area behind the vehicle. The image
automatically appears in the touchscreen when the vehicle is in
reverse (R) and uses green, yellow and red guides to alert you of
your proximity to objects.
Front and Rear Sensing 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 will increase in frequency as the
object gets closer.
Lane Keeping System*
Prevents unintentional drifting out of
your lane through various driver alerts
and steering corrections toward the center
of the lane. Set your system settings as
desired by Mode, Sensitivity and
Intensity from your information
display screen.
Driver Alert*
Monitors your driving behavior using various inputs including the
front camera sensor, lane markings and other factors. If the system
detects that your driving alertness level reduces below a certain
threshold, then the system will alert you using a tone and displaying
a message in the information display. Press OK on the steering
wheel to clear the warning.
Collision Warning System*
Designed to alert the driver of certain collision risks, sensors detect if
vehicles ahead of you, which are moving in the same direction, may
be a collision risk. The system will alert you with an audible tone and
displaying a red warning light above the instrument panel. If the risk
of collision increases, the system will increase brake support to help
reduce collision speed.
SecuriCodeTM Keyless Entry Keypad*
Allows you to lock or unlock the doors, recall memory features and
arm or disarm the anti-theft alarm. The keypad, located near the
driver’s window, is invisible until touched and then it lights up so you
can see and touch the buttons. To get started, you will need your
five-digit factory code found on your owner’s wallet card or it can be
temporarily displayed on the information display, if the card is not
handy. Entering this code unlocks the driver’s door. To lock all of the
doors, press and hold 7•8 and 9•0 at the same time. For complete
information, refer to the Locks chapter of your Owner’s Manual.
NOTE Visibility aids do not replace the need to watch where
