DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Safety or driver assistance features are no substitute for the driver’s responsibility to operate the vehicle in a safe manner. The driver should remain attentive to traffic, surroundings and road conditions at all times. Read your Owner’s Manual for important feature limitations and information.
SAFETY ALERT SEATF – The driver’s seat pulses — left side, right side or simultaneously — to alert the driver of the direction of potential hazards.
Audible alerts or seat pulsing alerts may be selected. To change the alert settings, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection > Alert Type.
LANE CHANGE ALERT WITH SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERTF – While driving, the system displays a warning symbol on the left or right side mirror when a vehicle is detected in that side blind zone area or rapidly approach-ing that  area.  The warning  symbol flashes if  a turn signal is activated when a vehicle has been detected on the same side.
  To  turn  on or off,  go to Settings  > Vehicle  > Collision/Detection > Lane Change Alert.
FORWARD COLLISION ALERTF – The
Vehicle Ahead Indicator is green when a
vehicle is detected and is amber when follow-ing a vehicle ahead much too closely. When approaching a vehicle directly ahead too  
rapidly,  a red  alert  flashes  on  the  windshield  and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or rapid beeps sound (if selected).
Press the Collision Alert button on the steering wheel to set the alert timing to  Far,  Medium,  or Near.
FORWARD AUTOMATIC BRAKINGF – In potential front-end imminent collision situations with detected vehicles, the brakes may be applied, if you have not already done so, to help reduce damage or avoid collisions at very low speeds with vehicles directly ahead.
 To  set  the  Forward  Collision  Alert and Forward  Automatic  Braking  systems  to Alert  and Brake,  Alert, or Off,  go to Settings  > Vehicle  > Collision/Detection  > Forward  Collision System.
LANE KEEP ASSIST WITH LANE DEPARTURE WARNINGF – The system may help you avoid collisions due to unintentional lane departures. The Lane Keep Assist Indicator is green if the system is available to assist. If the vehicle approaches a detected lane mark-ing without using a turn signal in that direction, the system may assist by gently turning the steering wheel and displaying an amber .
If active driver steering is not detected, the amber may flash  and the Safety  Alert Seat may pulse or beeps may sound (if selected) on the side of the departure direction as the lane marking is crossed. The Lane Keep Assist system does not continuously steer the vehicle; the driver needs to steer and be in complete control of the vehicle.
 To  turn  on or off,  press  the  Lane Keep Assist button on the center console.
