Driver Attention Warning (DAW) Video
Driver Attention Warning is not a substitute for safe driving and may not detect all instances of inattentive driving practices. Failure to pay attention to travel conditions and vehicle operation could result in loss of vehicle control. Always drive safely and use caution.
Refer to section 5 in the Owner’s Manual for more information.
Driver Attention Warning is designed to alert the driver if it detects inattentive driving practices and, in certain situations, can give
a warning signal to take a break from driving. There are three modes:
• Normal Sensitivity: Driver Attention Warning warns the driver of his/her inattentive driving practices
• High Sensitivity: Driver Attention Warning warns the driver of his/her inattentive driving practices faster than Normal mode
• Off: Driver Attention Warning is deactivated
If DAW is activated, the DAW information A will appear on the Instrument Cluster LCD when you select the Driving Assist menu
in User Settings . A message, “Consider taking a break,” B appears on the LCD and a warning sounds to suggest the driver to
take a break when the driver’s attention level becomes low.
DAW User Settings:
To turn DAW on/off, with the ignition on, press the Mode button C on the Steering Wheel and go to User Settings in the
Instrument Cluster. Then go to Driver Assistance and select Driver Attention Warning. Set DAW to Normal Sensitivity, High
Sensitivity of Off.
• Some models access settings through the Vehicle Settings in the audio head unit. Press
the Setup hard key on the audio head unit, then press VEHICLE on the screen to enter
Vehicle Settings
REMINDERS:
•
The setup of DAW will be maintained, as selected, when the ignition is cycled
•
When activated, DAW does not display “Consider taking a break” message when the total trip driving time is less than 10 minutes
•
DAW will enter a standby mode if the camera does not detect the lanes and/or the driving speed remains under 40 mph

Bluetooth® Wireless Technology†6,20 (Continued)
Voice Recognition and Phone Contact Tips
The system may have difficulty understanding some accents or uncommon
names. Improve the performance by making a few simple changes to your
phone contacts, listed below. To help optimize the Bluetooth® Wireless
Technology Voice Recognition system, see other tips and reminders under
Quick Tips:
•Use full names (first and last names) vs. short or single-syllable names
(e.g., “John Smith” vs. “Dad,” “Smith Residence” vs. “Home”)
•Avoid using special characters, emojis or hyphenated names (e.g., @,
&, #, /, -, *, +, etc.)
•Avoid using acronyms (e.g., “In Case of Emergency” vs. “ICE”) or words
with all capital letters
•Spell words completely, no abbreviations (e.g., “Doctor Smith” vs.
“Dr. Smith”)
• Bluetooth® Music Streaming – If the Bluetooth® music is inaudible or too low, you may need to turn up the volume on the connected phone
• 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
