Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)*† 10
The 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 or if it detects a vehicle ahead or a pedestrian in
front of the vehicle. Initially, FCA provides Forward Collision
Warning (FCW ) when it detects a potential collision with a
vehicle or a pedestrian in front, emitting an audible warning
and visual alert on the instrument cluster A. Adjust the alert
settings (Early, Normal, Late) in the User Settings. FCA is ON
by default and can be turned OFF in the User Settings menu
on the Instrument Cluster display.
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.
The FCA-Ped/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 B, the FCA system is automatically turned off.
§ When FCA system is turned off, the FCA warning indicator illuminates 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 c aution.
FCA and FCW may not always alert the driver when the vehicle is approaching another vehicle.

position or to Manual Shift mode*. When the engine restarts,
the green AUTO STOP indicator on the instrument cluster
will turn off.
To deactivate the ISG System, press the ISG OFF button B.
If you press again, the system will be activated.
For more information on Idle, Stop and Go System, refer to your Owner’s Manual or contact your local dealership.

Hill-start Assist Control (HAC)†8
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.
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 the vehicle is stopped on an incline
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. HAC does not replace the need to apply brakes while stopped on an incline.
