Forward Collision Warning (FCW)*
If the camera mounted between the windshield and the rearview mirror detects
a vehicle in front of you when your vehicle speed is 15 km/h or higher—and it
determines there is a likelihood of a frontal collision—the system provides you with
visual and audible warnings. Available on Canadian models only.
If you do not brake in time or take preventive
action, the FCW indicator blinks and a beep
sounds continuously.
Important Safety Reminder
FCW cannot detect all objects ahead and may not detect a given object; accuracy
of the system will vary based on weather, speed, extreme interior heat, and other
factors. FCW does not include a braking function. It is always your responsibility to
safely operate the vehicle and avoid collisions.
*if equipped
*if equipped
Lane Departure Warning ( LDW)*
A camera mounted between the windshield and the rearview mirror determines if
your vehicle begins to move away from the center of a detected lane while driving
between 64–145 km/h. Available on Canadian models only.
If you cross a detected lane line without using
your turn signal, the LDW indicator blinks and a
beep sounds.
Turning LDW On or Off
Press LDW to turn the system on or off. A green
indicator light appears on the button when the
system is on.
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, LDW has limitations. Over-reliance on LDW may result
in a collision. It is always your responsibility to keep the vehicle within your lane.
LDW only alerts you when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in use. LDW
may not detect all lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will vary based on
weather, speed, and lane marker condition. It is always your responsibility to safely
operate the vehicle and avoid collisions.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System ( TPMS) - Required Federal
Explanation
U.S. models only
Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked monthly
when cold and infl ated to the infl ation pressure recommended by the
vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard or tire infl ation pressure label.
(If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated on the
vehicle placard or tire infl ation pressure label, you should determine the
proper tire infl ation pressure for those tires.)
As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with
a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low
tire pressure telltale when one or more of your tires is signifi cantly
under-infl ated.
Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you should stop
and check your tires as soon as possible, and infl ate them to the proper
pressure.
Driving on a signifi cantly under-infl ated tire causes the tire to overheat and
can lead to tire failure. Under-infl ation also reduces fuel effi ciency and tire
tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s handling and stopping ability.
Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire maintenance,
and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain correct tire pressure, even if
under-infl ation has not reached the level to trigger illumination of the TPMS
low tire pressure telltale.
Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction indicator to
indicate when the system is not operating properly. The TPMS malfunction
indicator is combined with the low tire pressure telltale. When the system
detects a malfunction, the telltale will fl ash for approximately one minute
and then remain continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.
When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may not be able
to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.
TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including the
installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the vehicle that
prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.
Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or more
tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the replacement or alternate
tires and wheels allow the TPMS to continue to function properly.
Testing of Readiness Codes
Your vehicle has “readiness codes” as part of the onboard self-diagnostic system.
Some states refer to these codes as a test to see if your vehicle’s emissions
components are working properly. The codes may not be read if you go through the
emissions testing just after the battery has gone dead or been disconnected.
To check if they are set, turn the vehicle on without starting the engine. The
malfunction indicator lamp will come on for several seconds. If it goes off, the
readiness codes are set. If it blinks fi ve times, the readiness codes are not set.
If you are required to have your vehicle emissions tested before the readiness codes
are set, prepare the vehicle for retesting by doing the following:
1. Fill the gas tank to approximately 3/4 full.
2. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 6 hours or more.
3. Make sure the ambient temperature is between 40°F and 95°F (4°C and 35°C).
4. Start the engine without touching the accelerator pedal, and let it idle for 20
seconds.
5. Keep the vehicle in Park (P) or Neutral (manual transmission). Increase the
engine speed to 2,000 rpm, and hold it there for about 3 minutes.
6. Let the engine idle with your foot off the accelerator for 20 seconds.
7. Select a nearby, lightly traveled major highway where you can maintain a speed
of 50 to 60 mph (80 to 97 km/h) for at least 20 minutes. Drive on the highway with
the vehicle in Drive (D) or 5th gear (manual transmission). Do not use cruise
control. When traffi c allows, drive for 90 seconds without using the accelerator
pedal. (Vehicle speed may vary slightly; this is OK.) If you cannot do this for
a continuous 90 seconds because of traffi c conditions, drive for at least 30
seconds, then repeat two more times (for a total of 90 seconds).
8. Drive in city/suburban traffi c for at least 10 minutes. When traffi c conditions
allow, let the vehicle coast for several seconds without using the accelerator
pedal or the brake pedal.
9. Park the vehicle and leave the engine off for 30 minutes.
The readiness codes are erased when the battery is disconnected, and set again
only after several days of driving under a variety of conditions.
If an emissions testing facility determines that the readiness codes are not set, you
may be requested to return at a later date to complete the test, or see your dealer.
