Driving and Operating 161
Driving Information
Distracted Driving
Distraction comes in many forms
and can take your focus from the
task of driving. Exercise good
judgment and do not let other
activities divert your attention away
from the road. Many local
governments have enacted laws
regarding driver distraction. Become
familiar with the local laws in
your area.
To avoid distracted driving, always
keep your eyes on the road, hands
on the wheel, and mind on the drive.
.Do not use a phone in
demanding driving situations.
Use a hands-free method to
place or receive necessary
phone calls.
. Watch the road. Do not read,
take notes, or look up
information on phones or other
electronic devices.
. Designate a front seat
passenger to handle potential
distractions. .
Become familiar with vehicle
features before driving, such as
programming favorite radio
stations and adjusting climate
control and seat settings.
Program all trip information into
any navigation device prior to
driving.
. Wait until the vehicle is parked
to retrieve items that have fallen
to the floor.
. Stop or park the vehicle to tend
to children.
. Keep pets in an appropriate
carrier or restraint.
. Avoid stressful conversations
while driving, whether with a
passenger or on a cell phone.
{Warning
Taking your eyes off the road too
long or too often could cause a
crash resulting in injury or death.
Focus your attention on driving. Refer to the Infotainment section
and the infotainment manual for
more information on using that
system, including pairing and using
a cell phone.
Defensive Driving
Defensive driving means
“always
expect the unexpected.” The first
step in driving defensively is to wear
the safety belt. See Safety
Belts 053.
. Assume that other road users
(pedestrians, bicyclists, and
other drivers) are going to be
careless and make mistakes.
Anticipate what they might do
and be ready.
. Allow enough following distance
between you and the driver in
front of you.
. Focus on the task of driving.
Drunk Driving
Death and injury associated with
drinking and driving is a global
tragedy.

Driving and Operating 189
The RVC system is designed to
help the driver when backing up by
displaying a view of the area behind
the vehicle. When the driver shifts
the vehicle into R (Reverse), the
video image automatically appears
on the infotainment screen. Once
the driver shifts out of R (Reverse),
the screen will go back to the last
screen that had been displayed,
after a delay.
The RVC display remains on after
shifting out of R (Reverse) for
approximately 10 seconds. Return to
the previous screen sooner by
performing one of the following:
.Press a hard key on the
infotainment system.
. Shift into P (Park).
. Reach a vehicle speed of
8 km/h (5 mph).
Symbols and Guidelines
The RVC system may have a
feature that lets the driver view
caution symbols on the RVC screen
while using the RVC. The Rear Parking Assist (RPA) system must
not be disabled to use these
symbols. See
Parking Assist 0190.
The caution symbols appear when
an object has been detected by the
RPA system. The symbol may cover
the object when viewing the RVC
screen.
The RVC system may have a
guideline overlay that can help the
driver align the vehicle when
backing into a parking spot.
To turn the symbols and guidelines
on or off: 1. Shift into P (Park).
2. Press Settings on the Home screen of the infotainment
system.
3. Select Display and then Rear Camera.
4. Select Symbols or Guidelines. When a checkmark appears
next to the item, it is on.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
On vehicles with RCTA, a red
warning triangle with an arrow may
also display on the RVC screen to warn of traffic coming from either
direction, behind the vehicle. When
an object is detected, three beeps
sound on the left or right side,
depending on the direction of the
detected vehicle. This system
detects objects coming from up to
20 m (65 ft) from the left or right side
behind the vehicle.
Use caution while backing up when
towing a trailer, as the RCTA
detection zones that extend out
from the back of your vehicle do not
move further back when a trailer is
towed.
The RCTA system can be disabled
through the Driver Information
Center (DIC). See
Driver
Information Center (DIC) 0116.
Rear Vision Camera Location
The camera is located above the
license plate.
The area displayed by the camera is
limited and does not display objects
that are close to either corner or
under the bumper. The area
displayed can vary depending on
vehicle orientation or road
