Legal Disclaimers Inside Back Cover
Driving while distracted can result in a loss of vehicle control that may lead to an
accident, severe personal injury and death. The driver’s primary responsibility is in the safe and legal operation of a vehicle, and any handheld devices, other equipment or vehicle systems which take the driver’s eyes, attention and focus away from the safe operation of a vehicle or that are not permissible by law should never be used during operation of the vehicle.
On select models, to set warning volume, navigate to the “Warning Volume” section in the Drivers Assistance menu. Choose High, Medium, Low or Off to determine the volume level of the vehicle warning features. Adjust the warning volume accordingly by pressing “OK” on the steering wheel controls. Caution, if the music or vehicle audio volume is set too high the warning volume might not be heard.

FCA is designed to help alert the driver and, under certain conditions, apply emergency braking when rapidly approaching a vehicle that is slowing down, braking or stopped Initially, FCA provides Forward Collision Warning (FCW) when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the instrument cluster A
If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) automatically applies the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially helping to reduce the effects of a possible collision
FCA User Settings:
§ To go to the User Settings menu in the Instrument Cluster, press the Mode button B when the vehicle is at a standstill, gear shift in Park and with the ignition switch or the Engine Start/Stop button* in the ON position, and select User Settings Select Driver Assistance, then Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist or Forward Collision Warning and press OK C
§ FCA is ON by default and can be turned OFF in the User Settings menu in the Instrument Cluster
§ Adjust the FCA alert settings:
– Active Assist: Vehicle will provide a warning (audible & visual) and apply the brakes if needed
– Warning Only: Vehicle will provide a warning only (audible & visual)
– Off: System is off, no warnings or braking provided
§ Adjust the FCW initial warning activation time:
– Early: Maximizes the amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial warning occurs
– Late: Reduces the amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial warning occurs
FCA/FCW will become active when the:
§ Engine Start/Stop button is ON
§ Vehicle is traveling faster than 5 mph
§ Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON

REMINDERS:
§ The BCW system will not issue a warning if the vehicle speed is 6 mph or more above the surrounding vehicles
§ When the BCW is ON and the ignition is cycled, the BCA system returns to its previous state
§ The BCW system is a supplemental system Do not solely rely on this system Always pay attention to the road and drive safely
Quick Tips § The BCW system will activate when: § The system is turned on§ Vehicle speed is above approximately 20 mph§ Other vehicles are detected on the rear sides of the vehicle
Blind-Spot Collision
Warning (BCW)*† (Continued)

The BCA system uses radar sensors in the rear bumper to monitor and warn the driver, under certain conditions, apply braking if it detects an approaching vehicle in the driver’s blind-spot area
Initially, BCA provides Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW) when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the outside rearview mirrors
If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA) automatically applies the opposite side front brake to try and mitigate a potential collision
1st-stage alert: When another vehicle is detected within the BCA system warning boundary A, a yellow indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors B
2nd-stage alert: When 1st stage alert is on and the driver activates a turn signal, a flashing yellow indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors and the system will sound an alert
3rd-stage alert: When 1st stage alert is on and the 2nd stage alert has already occurred, and the collision risk has increased, braking is applied to the opposite side front wheel and a visual warning occurs
BCA User Settings:
§ With the ignition or Engine Start/Stop button* in the ON position, press the BCA button C to turn the system ON The button light will illuminate The outside rearview mirror warning lights will also illuminate for 3 seconds
§ To go to the User Settings menu in the Instrument Cluster, press the Mode button D when the vehicle is at a standstill, gear shift in Park and with the ignition switch or the Engine Start/Stop button* in the ON position, and select User Settings Select Driver Assistance, Blind-Spot Safety and then press OK E

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA) is designed to warn the driver, under certain conditions, apply braking if it detects cross traffic approaching the vehicle, when vehicle is in reverse
Initially, RCCA provides Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning (RCCW) when the system sensors detect approaching vehicles from the rear left or rear right side of the vehicle A, the system will sound an audible alert, the warning indicators on the outside rearview mirror will illuminate and a message will appear on the Instrument Cluster screen B
If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA) automatically applies the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially helping to minimize the effects of a possible collision
RCCA is designed to operate under the following conditions:
§ When the gear shift is in Reverse
§ When the vehicle is moving slower than 6 mph
RCCA User Settings:
§ To go to the User Settings menu in the Instrument Cluster, press the Mode button C when the vehicle is at a standstill, gear shift in Park and with the ignition switch or the Engine Start/Stop button* in the ON position, and select User Settings
§ To turn RCCA system ON when in User Settings, select Driver Assistance, Parking Safety, Rear Cross-Traffic Safety and then press OK D
§ To set the initial warning activation time, go to User Settings, then Driver Assistance, Warning Time and press the OK button D
§ There are two settings:
– Early: Maximizes the amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial warning occurs
