Forest Air® System (if so equipped)
this system helps keep the air inside your vehicle
clean using an automatic air intake and ventilation
system that monitors air quality with outside and

windshield. when the system is On, the defroster
may automatically turn on.
For more information, refer to the “Monitor, climate, audio, phone and voice recognition systems (section 4)” of your Owner’s Manual.

will illuminate if the radar sensors detect a vehicle in
the detection zone.

the Blind Spot Intervention™ (BSI) system can assist
the driver in returning the vehicle to the center of the
traveling lane by applying individual brake pressure
to the left or right wheels for a short period of time.

the indicator light
02 will first illuminate in orange and
then turn green before turning off. this indicates that
