How does the air bag system
operate?
Air bags are activated (able to
inflate if necessary) only when the
Engine Start/Stop button is turned
to the ON or engine is running.
The appropriate air bags inflate
instantly in the event of a serious
frontal collision or side collision in
order to help protect the occupants
from serious physical injury.
There is no single speed at which
the air bags will inflate.
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 factors including vehicle
speed and angles of impact. The
determining factors are not limited
to those mentioned above. 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 com-
partments after the collision.
In addition to inflating in serious
side collisions, side and/or curtain
air bags will inflate if the sensing
system detects a rollover.
When a rollover is detected, side
and/or curtain air bags will remain
inflated longer to help provide pro-
tection from ejection, especially
when used in conjunction with the
seat belts. In order to help provide protection,
the air bags must inflate rapidly.
The speed of the air bag inflation is
a consequence of extremely short
time in which to inflate the air bag
between the occupant and the
vehicle structures before the occu-
pant impacts those structures. This
speed of inflation reduces the risk
of serious or life-threatening
injuries and is thus a necessary
part of the air bag design.
However, air bag inflation can also
cause injuries which can include
facial abrasions, bruises and bro-
ken bones because the inflation
speed also causes the air bags to
expand with a great deal of force.
There are even circumstances
under which contact with the
steering wheel or passenger air
bag can cause fatal injuries,
especially if the occupant is
positioned excessively close to
the steering wheel or passenger
air bag.

Programming HomeLink®
✽
✽
NOTICE
• When programming a garage
door opener, it is advised to park
the vehicle outside of the garage.
• It is recommended that a new bat-
tery be placed in the hand-held
transmitter of the device being pro-
grammed to HomeLink
®for quick-
er training and accurate transmis-
sion of the radio-frequency signal.
• Some vehicles may require the igni-
tion switch to be turned to the sec-
ond position for programming
and/or operation of HomeLink
®.
• In the event that there are still pro-
gramming difficulties or questions
after following the programming
steps listed below, contact
HomeLink
®at: www.homelink.com
or 1-800-355-3515.
Standard programming
To train most devices, follow these
instructions:
1. For first-time programming, press
and hold the two outside buttons,
HomeLink
®Channel 1 and
Channel 3 Buttons, until the indi-
cator light begins to flash (after 20
seconds). Release both buttons.
Do not hold the buttons for longer
than 30 seconds.
2. Position the end of your hand-held
transmitter 1-3 inches (2-8 cm)
away from the HomeLink
®buttons
while keeping the indicator light in
view.
3. Simultaneously press and hold
both the HomeLink
®and hand-
held transmitter button. DO NOT
release the buttons until step 4
has been completed.
4. While continuing to hold the but-
tons the red Indicator Status LED
will flash slowly and then rapidly
after HomeLink
®successfully
trains to the frequency signal from
the hand-held transmitter. Release
both buttons.5. Press and hold the just-trained
HomeLink
®button and observe
the red Status Indicator LED. If the
indicator light stays on constantly,
programming is complete and
your device should activate when
the HomeLink
® button is pressed
and released.
6. To program the remaining two
HomeLink
® buttons, follow steps 2
through 5.

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.

NOTICE
• Even though the steering is assist-
ed by the system, the driver may
control the steering.
• The steering wheel may feel heav-
ier when the steering wheel is
assisted by the system than when it
is not.
The system will be cancelled when:
You change lanes with the turn sig-
nal.
- Using the turn signal to change
lanes.
- If you change lanes without the
turn signal on, the steering wheel
control may be affected by LKA.
LKA system can transit to steering
assist mode when the car is near
to middle of the lane after system
on or the lane was changed.
LKA system can not assist steering
if the vehicle follows lane marker
too close continuously before tran-
sition to steering assist mode.
The control of ESC (Electronic
Stability Control) or VSM (Vehicle
Stability Management) is activated.
The steering will not be assisted
when you drive fast on a sharp
curve.
The steering will not be assisted
when vehicle speed is below 40
mph (64 km/h) and over 110 mph
(180 km/h). Always obey all traffic
laws and drive safely.
WARNING
LKA system is a supplemental
system only. It is the responsi-
bility of the driver to safely
steer the vehicle and to main-
tain it in its lane.
Even though the steering is
assisted by the system, the
driver may control the steer-
ing wheel.
Turn off LKA system and drive
without the use of the system
in the following situations:
- In bad weather
- In bad road conditions
- When the steering wheel
needs to be controlled by the
driver frequently.
The steering wheel may feel
heavier when the steering
wheel is assisted by the sys-
tem than when it is not.

System description
Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW)
Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW)
system uses radar sensors in the
rear bumper to monitor and warn the
driver of an approaching vehicle in
the driver's blind spot area.
The system monitors the rear area of
the vehicle and provides information
to the driver with an audible alert and
a indicator on the outside rearview
mirrors.(1) Blind spot area
BCW range varies relative to
vehicle speed. Note that if your
vehicle is traveling much faster
than the vehicles around you, the
warning will not occur.(2) Closing at high speed
BCW will alert you when it
detects a vehicle is approaching
in an adjacent lane at a high rate
of speed. If the driver activates
the turn signal when the system
detects an oncoming vehicle, the
system sounds an audible alert.
