Safety features of your vehicle
How does the air bag system
operate
Air bags are activated (able toinflate if necessary) only when the
ignition switch is turned to the ON
or START the appropriate position.
Air bags inflate instantly in the event of serious frontal or side col-
lision (if equipped with side air bag
or curtain air bag) in order to help
protect the occupants from serious
physical injury.
Generally, air bags are designed to
inflate based upon the severity of a
collision and its direction. These
two factors determine whether the
sensors produce an electronic
deployment/ inflation signal. Air bag deployment depends on a
number of complex factors includ-
ing vehicle speed, angles of impact
and the density and stiffness of the
vehicles or objects which your
vehicle hits in the collision. Though,
factors are not limited to those
mentioned above. Airbags deploy
depending on the severity and
angle of the impact.
Airbags do not deploy in every
impact situation.
The front air bags will completely inflate and deflate in an instant.
It is virtually impossible for you to
see the air bags inflate during an
accident. It is much more likely that
you will simply see the deflated air
bags hanging out of their storage
compartments after the collision. In addition to inflating in certain
side collisions, vehicles equipped
with a rollover sensor, side and
curtain air bags will inflate if the
sensing system detects a rollover.
When a rollover is detected, side and
curtain air bags will remain inflated
longer to help provide protection
from ejection, especially when used
in conjunction with the seat belts.
In order to help provide protection in a severe collision, the air bags
must inflate rapidly. The speed of
air bag inflation is a consequence
of the extremely short time in
which a collision occurs and the
need to get the air bag between
the occupant and the vehicle struc-
tures before the occupant impacts
those structures. This speed of
inflation reduces the risk of serious
or life-threatening injuries in a
severe collision and is thus a nec-
essary part of air bag design.

Turn signals and lane change
signals
The ignition switch must be on for the
turn signals to function. To turn on
the turn signals, move the lever up or
down (A). The green arrow indicators
on the instrument panel indicate
which turn signal is operating. They will self-cancel after a turn is
completed. If the indicator continues
to flash after a turn, manually return
the lever to the OFF position.
To signal a lane change, move the
turn signal lever slightly and hold it in
position (B). The lever will return to
the OFF position when released.
If an indicator stays on and does not
flash or if it flashes abnormally, one of
the turn signal bulbs may be burned
out and will require replacement.
One-touch lane change function
To activate a one-touch lane change
function, move the turn signal lever
slightly and then release it. The lane
change signals will blink 3, 5 or 7
times.
You can choose one-touch lane
change blinking function in “One
touch turn signal” of “User setting”.
Refer to “User setting” in chapter 4.
(if equipped)
✽ ✽
NOTICE
If an indicator flash is abnormally
quick or slow, the bulb may be
burned out or have a poor electrical
connection in the circuit.

WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using Lane Keeping
Assist:
The driver should hold theresponsibility to safely drive
and control the vehicle. Do
not solely rely on the function
and drive dangerously.
The operation of Lane Keeping Assist can be can-
celled or not work properly
depending on road conditions
and surroundings. Always be
cautious while driving.
Refer to "Limitations of the function" in chapter 5, if the
lane is not detected properly.
When you are towing a trailer or another vehicle, we recom-
mend that Lane Keeping
Assist is turned off due to
safety reasons.
(Continued)
(Continued)
If the vehicle is driven at highspeed, the steering wheel will
not be controlled. The driver
must always follow the speed
limit when using the function.
If any other function's warn- ing message is displayed or
audible warning is generated,
Lane Keeping Assist warning
message may not be dis-
played and audible warning
may not be generated.
You may not hear the warning sound of Lane Keeping Assist
if the surrounding is noisy.
If you attach objects to the steering wheel, steering may
not be assisted properly.
Lane Keeping Assist may not operate for 15 seconds after
the vehicle is started, or the
front view camera is initial-
ized.
Lane Keeping Assist will not operate when:
(Continued)(Continued)- The turn signal or hazardwarning flasher is turned on
- The vehicle is not driven in the center of the lane when
the function is turned on or
right after changing a lane
- ESC (Electronic Stability Control) or VSM (Vehicle
Stability Management) is
activated
- The vehicle is driven on a sharp curve
- Vehicle speed is below 35 mph (55 km/h) or above 130
mph (210 km/h)
- The vehicle makes sharp lane changes
- The vehicle is suddenly stopped

Function operation
Function warning
To warn the driver a vehicle is
detected, the warning light on the
outside rearview mirror and head-
up display (if equipped) will illumi-
nate
The function will operate when your vehicle speed is above 12
mph (20 km/h) and the speed of
the vehicle in the blind spot area is
above 7 mph (10 km/h).
Collision warning
Collision warning will operate whenthe turn signal is turned on in the
direction of the detected vehicle.
To warn the driver of a collision, the warning light on the outside
rearview mirror and head-up dis-
play (if equipped) will blink.
When the turn signal is turned off or you move away from the lane,
the collision warning will be can-
celed and the function will return to
vehicle detection state.
ORJ058127
■ Vehicle detection
WARNING
The detecting range of the
rear corner radar is deter-
mined by the standard road
width, therefore, on a narrow
road, the function may detect
other vehicles in the next lane
and warn you. In contrast, on
a wide road, the function may
not be able to detect a vehicle
driving in the next lane and
may not warn you.
When the hazard warning light is on, the collision warn-
ing by the turn signal will not
operate.
For your safety, change the Settings after parking the
vehicle at a safe location.
If any other function's warn- ing message is displayed or
audible warning is generated,
Blind-Spot Safety system's
warning message may not be
displayed and audible warn-
ing may not be generated.
