Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)*†9 /
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)*†9
The FCA is designed to help alert the driver, and under
certain conditions if necessary, apply emergency braking,
when rapidly approaching a vehicle that is slowing down,
braking or stopped. Initially, the FCA provides Forward
Collision Warning (FCW ) when it detects a potential collision
with a vehicle in front emitting an audible warning and visual
alert on the instrument cluster A. Secondly, if condition
continues, an Emergency Braking warning message will
appear B. Adjust the alert settings (Early, Normal, Late)
in the User Settings. To turn the FCA /FCW off, go to User
Settings again and turn off.
If the collision risk increases, the Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist (FCA) automatically applies the brakes
to reduce your speed, helping to minimize the effects of a
possible collision. FCA can be turned ON in the User
Settings menu on the Instrument Cluster display.
The FCA /FCW will become active when the:
§ Engine Start /Stop button is ON
§ Vehicle is traveling more than 5 mph
§ Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON.
LED Warning Messages:
REMINDERS:
§ The FCA /FCW will be activated by default when the ignition is cycled ON, even when previous setting was OFF
§ The FCA /FCW will not operate when the vehicle is traveling more than approximately 45/50 mph, respectively
§ If the FCA is operating and the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off C, the FCA system is automatically turned off.
§ When FCA system is off, the FCA warning indicator is on in the Instrument Cluster .
The Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) / Forward Collision Warning (FCW) are not substitutes for safe and proper driving. Always drive safely and use Caution.
FCA and FCW may not always alert the driver when the vehicle is approaching another vehicle.

Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is designed to help stabilize the vehicle during certain cornering
maneuvers. Traction Control System ( TCS) can help improve traction. It is a good idea to keep both
ESC and TCS turned on for daily driving whenever possible.
Press the ESC button B to turn Traction Control System OFF/ON.
To turn both Electronic Stability Control and Traction Control System OFF, press and hold the ESC button for
more than 3 seconds. Press again to turn ON.
REMINDERS:
§ ESC is active by default at vehicle start-up. When ignition is cycled, ESC will turn ON again
§ The ESC indicator light in the instrument cluster will be lit momentarily whenever ESC is active
Electronic Stability Control (ESC)†7 /
Traction Control System (TCS)†7
Hill-start Assist Control (HAC)†7
Hill-start Assist Control (HAC) is designed to prevent the vehicle from rolling
backwards when accelerating from a stop while on a steep incline.
HAC automatically activates whether ESC is OFF or ON but does NOT
activate when ESC has malfunctioned.
Quick Tip

When HAC is active (e.g., during initial acceleration from a stop on an incline), you may notice that the brakes will momentarily remain engaged after you depress the accelerator.
REMINDERS:
§ HAC does not operate when the gear shift is in P (Park) or N (Neutral) position
§ HAC does not replace the need to apply brakes while stopped on an incline
With parking lights/headlights ON, press A (+) or (-) to adjust the brightness
of the Instrument panel illumination.
