Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)*†7
With the Engine Start /Stop button in the ON position, press
the LK A button A to turn system ON . The instrument cluster
indicator will initially illuminate white . It will remain
white when the vehicle is traveling less than 40 mph or the
system does not detect the lane markers . When the LK A
system detects the lane markers and can assist the steering,
the LK A icon will illuminate green .
If the LK A detects that you are moving outside of your lane,
the system may give an audible warning and display a LDW
(Lane Departure Warning) alert on the instrument cluster .
If the vehicle continues to move outside of the lane, the
LK A will apply a slight adjustment to the steering, trying to
prevent the vehicle from moving outside its lane .
Standard LK A is the operating mode by default when the
LK A button is depressed to ON . To switch between modes
(Standard LK A, Active LK A and Lane Departure), go to User
Settings in the Instrument Cluster .
All systems will operate under the following conditions:
•The vehicle exceeds approximately 40 mph
•The LK A system recognizes both sides of the lane markers
the vehicle is traveling in
•The vehicle is between the lane markers
REMINDERS:
• LK A will not issue a warning if the turn signal or hazard signal is activated
• LK A will return to its previous setting on/off when the ignition is cycled
Lane Keeping Assist is not a substitute for safe driving, and may not always detect if the vehicle is moving outside of its lane. Always drive safely and use caution.
Your vehicle’s instrument cluster & indicator light locations may differ from those in the illustrations. For more information on the instrument cluster, please refer to the Owner’s Manual.
These illustrations are for demonstration purposes only. Actual indicators may vary in appearance.
When the LK A sensor detects the lane traveled in, both lanes are illuminatedWhen the LK A sensor does not detect the lane traveled in the lanes are not illuminated

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) / Forward Collision Warning (FCW)*†7
The FCA system is designed to help alert the driver, and, under certain conditions, apply emergency braking,
when 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 in front, emitting an audible warning and visual
alert on the instrument cluster .
Adjust the alert settings (Early, Normal, Late) in the User Settings . To turn FCA /FCW off, go to User Settings again and
turn it off .
If the collision risk increases and other conditions are met, Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) is designed to
automatically apply the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially helping to minimize the effects of a possible collision .
FCA can be turned ON in the User Settings menu on the Instrument Cluster display .
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
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) / Forward Collision Warning (FCW)* are not substitutes for safe and proper driving. Always drive safely and use caution. FCA / FCW may not always alert the driver when the vehicle is approaching another vehicle.
REMINDERS:
• FCA will be activated by default when vehicle power is cycled on, even when previously set to off
• FCW will not operate when the vehicle is traveling faster than approximately 50 mph
• If FCA is operating and ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned of f, the FCA system is automatically turned off
• When FCA is not operating, the FCA warning indicator will illuminate on the Instrument Cluster

Voice Recognition and Phone Contact Tips
To help optimize the Bluetooth® Wireless
Technology Voice Recognition system, below
are some tips and reminders . Improve the
performance by making a few simple changes
to your phone contacts:
•Use full names (first and last names) vs .
short or single-syllable names (“John Smith”
vs . “Dad," “Smith Residence” vs . “Home”)
•Avoid using special characters, emojis or
hyphenated names (@, &, #, /, -, *, +, etc . )
•Avoid using acronyms (“In Case of
Emergency” vs . “ICE”) or words with all
capital letters
•Spell words completely, no abbreviations
(“Doctor Smith” vs . “Dr . Smith”)
The system may have difficulty understanding
some accents or uncommon names . Below
are other tips to optimize using the voice
recognition .
• When placing a call, speak in a natural, moderate tone, with clear pronunciation . The system may have trouble recognizing commands if you speak too softly or too loudly
• Always wait for the beep before speaking any commands
• Close windows and turn off A /C – Open windows, weather (wind/rain), or an A /C fan operating at higher speeds can interfere with Voice Recognition
• Press the talk button and say “Help” to get a list of available commands

Smart Cruise Control (SCC) with Stop & Go*†7, 21
The Smart Cruise Control (SCC) system allows you to set the vehicle to maintain a constant speed
and predetermined distance so long as it is not limited by traffic . When traffic is encountered, the
vehicle may be slowed to help maintain the set distance from vehicles detected ahead without the
driver depressing the brake pedal .
To set/adjust SCC speed:
•Push the CRUISE button A to turn system ON . The CRUISE indicator will illuminate
on the instrument cluster
•Accelerate/decelerate to the desired speed
•Press button B down to set the speed . Press the RES+/SET- button B up/down to
increase/decrease the set speed
To adjust the vehicle-to-vehicle distance setting C: Press the SCC button D on the steering
wheel . The images on the LCD screen E and the Instrument Cluster F will change when scrolling
through the settings . Each time the button is pressed, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance changes .
To cancel SCC operation: Press the CANCEL button G or press the brake pedal . The LCD
screen will display a message that the SCC operation is canceled H .
To turn SCC system OFF: Press the CRUISE button A . The CRUISE indicator on the instrument
cluster will turn OFF .
• To change the Cruise Control mode from SCC to standard Cruise Control, press and hold button D . Repeat to switch modes again ( The SCC system must not be activated to change modes)
• For the SCC system to operate, you must be traveling at a minimum speed of 20 mph, when no vehicle is detected in front
• When following a vehicle, the system is able to automatically adjust your cruise speed based on the vehicle detected in front
QUICK TIPS
REMINDERS:
•
In standard Cruise Control, the driver needs to manually assess the distance from other vehicles as the system will not apply brakes to slow down the vehicle
•
SCC system is activated when ignition is turned on . Speed will need to be reset when ignition is cycled on
•
The distance settings are approximations and may vary depending on speed and factory settings at the time . See owner’s manual for more information
•
The SCC is also canceled when the driver’s door is opened, Rotary Dial Shifter Knob is changed out of D (Drive) and various other conditions . See owner’s manual for other conditions
•
If the SCC system is left on, it can be activated inadvertently . Keep the system off when not in use to avoid setting a speed which the driver is not aware of
