Safety system of your vehicle
In an angled collision, the force of
impact may direct the occupants in a
direction where the air bags would
not be able to provide any additional
benefit, and thus the sensors may
not deploy any air bags.
Just before impact, drivers often
brake heavily. Such heavy braking
lowers the front portion of the vehicle
causing it to "ride" under a vehicle
with a higher ground clearance. Air
bags may not inflate in this "under-
ride" situation because deceleration
forces that are detected by sensors
may be significantly reduced by such
"underride" collisions. Front air bags may not inflate in
rollover accidents because air bag
deployment could not provide protec-
tion to the occupants.
However, side and curtain air bags
may inflate when the vehicle is rolled
over by a side impact collision.
Information
Front air bags do not inflate in
rollover accidents. However, side
impact and curtain air bags may
inflate in a rollover, when it is detect-
ed by the rollover sensor.

Safe Exit Assist (SEA) System
(If equipped)
Once the system decides it is danger-
ous for a passenger to open a vehicle
door by sensing the approaching of a
vehicle from behind when the person
is opening the door, the warning mes-
sage “Watch for traffic” appears and
the alarming sound will continue for
maximum of five seconds.
This function works for ten minutes
even after the ignition is turned off.
The function will be released as soon
as the vehicle doors are locked with
the smart key.
The alarming sound will continue
while the Safe Exit Assist (SEA) sys-
tem is in activation.
The Safe Exit Assist (SEA) system is
activated when you select ‘Setup →
Vehicle Settings →Driver Assistance
→ Blind-Spot Safety → Safe Exit
Assist’ from the Settings menu in the
AVN system screen.
For detailed information, scan the
QR code in a separately supplied
simple manual.
OHI048561L
If a vehicle is approaching from
behind is too fast or a door is
opened too suddenly the alarm
system may not set off in time,
which can increase the chance
of an accident. Therefore, when
exiting the vehicle, always check
your surroundings to make sure
that there are no vehicles or
objects approaching.
WARNING
The safe Exist Assist (SEA) sys-
tem may not operate normally
when a vehicle is coming rapidly
two lanes over from your vehicle
or a vehicle is approaching at a
fast speed from the rear in the
lane next to your vehicle.
The Safe Exist Assist (SEA) sys-
tem may be activated later than
normal or may not operate nor-
mally if a vehicle is approaching
fast from the rear of your vehicle.
The Safe Exist Assist (SEA) sys-
tem will not operate if there is a
malfunction with the Blind-Spot
Collision Warning (BCW) system
as follows:
- When the BCW warning mes- sage appears
- When the BCW sensor or the sensor surrounding is polluted
or covered
- When the BCW does not warn or warns wrongly
For more details, refer to cau-
tions and limitations in “Blind-
Spot Collision Warning (BCW)/
Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance
Assist (BCA)” in chapter 5.

Automatic-Dimming Night Vision
Safety™ (NVS®) Mirror
(if equipped)
The NVS®Mirror automatically
reduces glare by monitoring light lev-
els in the front and the rear of the
vehicle. Any object that obstructs
either light sensor will degrade the
automatic dimming control feature.
For more information regarding
NVS
®mirrors and other applica-
tions, please refer to the Gentex
website:
www.gentex.com
Your mirror will automatically dim
upon detecting glare from the vehi-
cles traveling behind you.
The mirror defaults to the ON posi-
tion each time the vehicle is started.
Integrated HomeLink®Wireless
Control System
The HomeLink®Wireless Control
System can replace up to three hand-
held radio-frequency (RF) transmit-
ters with a single built-in device. This
innovative feature will learn the radio
frequency codes of most current
transmitters to operate devices such
as gate operators, garage door open-
ers, entry door locks, security sys-
tems, even home lighting. Both stan-
dard and rolling code-equipped trans-
mitters can be programmed by follow-
ing the outlined procedures.
Additional HomeLink
®information
can be found at: www.homelink.com,
www.youtube.com/HomeLinkGentex
or by calling 1-800-355-3515. Retain the original transmitter of the
RF device you are programming for
use in other vehicles as well as for
future HomeLink
®programming. It is
also suggested that upon the sale of
the vehicle, the programmed
HomeLink
®buttons be erased for
security purposes.
Before programming HomeLink
®
to a garage door opener or gate
operator, make sure people and
objects are out of the way of the
device to prevent potential harm
or damage. Do not use the
HomeLink
®with any garage
door opener that lacks the safe-
ty stop and reverse features
required by U.S. federal safety
standards (this includes any
garage door opener model man-
ufactured before April 1, 1982). A
garage door that cannot detect
an object - signaling the door to
stop and reverse - does not meet
current U.S. federal safety stan-
dards. Using a garage door
opener without these features
increases the risk of serious
injury or death.

any direction to prevent a col-
lision.
Always pay close attention when the vehicle is driven
close to objects, particularly
pedestrians, and especially
children.
Be aware that some objects may not be visible on the
screen or be detected by the
sensors, due to the objects
distance, size or material, all
of which can limit the effec-
tiveness of the sensor.
WARNING
