Press the brake pedal, and then press
the button for any length of time. An
indicator light on the button illuminates
when then ignition is on and when the
engine starts.
STARTING A GASOLINE ENGINE
When you start the engine, the idle speed
increases, this helps to warm up the engine.
If the engine idle speed does not slow down
automatically, have your vehicle checked by
an authorized dealer.
Note: If your vehicle is equipped with remote
start, you can start your vehicle with the
remote, and then drive away by pressing the
brake pedal and pushing a button on the
transmission. This allows you to drive away
without pressing the engine start button.
Before starting the engine, check the
following:
• Make sure all occupants have fastened
their safety belts.
• Make sure the headlamps and electrical
accessories are off. •
Make sure the parking brake is on.
• Put the transmission in P.
Note: Do not touch the accelerator pedal.
1. Fully press the brake pedal.
2. Press the button.
The system does not function if:
• The key frequencies are jammed.
• The key battery has no charge.
If you are unable to start the engine, do the
following: 1. Open the center console lid.
2. Slide the remote into the back-up slot.3. With the key in this position, press the
brake pedal, then the START button to
switch the ignition on and start your
vehicle.
Fast Restart
The fast restart feature allows you to restart
the engine within 20 seconds of switching it
off, even if a valid key is not present.
Within 20 seconds of switching the engine
off, press the brake pedal and press the
button. After 20 seconds have expired, you
can no longer restart the engine without the
key present inside your vehicle.
Once the engine has started, it remains
running until you press the button, even if
the system does not detect a valid key. If you
open and close a door while the engine is
running, the system searches for a valid key.
You cannot restart the engine if the system
does not detect a valid key within 20
seconds.

speed.
• Your turn indicator is active.
• Your vehicle is in a dynamic maneuver. •
The road has no or poor lane markings
in the camera field-of-view.
• The camera is obscured or unable to
detect the lane markings due to
environmental conditions (significant sun
angles, shadows, snow, heavy rain, fog),
traffic conditions (following a large
vehicle that is blocking or shadowing the
lane), or vehicle conditions (poor
headlamp illumination).
See
Troubleshooting for additional
information.
Green: Indicates that the system is available
or ready to provide a warning or intervention,
on the indicated side(s).
Yellow: Indicates that the system is providing
or has just provided a lane keeping aid
intervention.
Red: Indicates that the system is providing
or has just provided a lane keeping alert
warning.

System Limitations WARNING
The collision warning system
’s brake
support only reduces collision speed
if you first apply your brakes. You must brake
as you would in any typical braking situation. Due to the nature of radar technology, there
may be certain instances where vehicles do
not provide a collision warning. These
include: •
Stationary vehicles or vehicles moving
below 6 mph (10 km/h).
• Pedestrians or objects in the roadway.
• Oncoming vehicles in the same lane.
• Severe weather conditions (see blocked
sensor section).
• Debris build-up on the grille near the
headlamps (see blocked sensor section).
• Small distance to vehicle ahead.
• Large steering wheel and pedal
movements (very active driving style). Damage to the front end of the vehicle may
alter the radar sensor's coverage area. This
may result in missed or false collision
warnings. Have an authorized dealer check
your radar sensor for proper coverage and
operation.

ADJUSTING THE HEADLAMPS
Vertical Aim Adjustment
The assembly plant properly aims the
headlamps on your vehicle. If your vehicle
has been in an accident, have the alignment
of your headlamps checked by your
authorized dealer.
8 feet (2.4 meters)
A
Center height of lamp to ground
B 25 feet (7.6 meters)
C
Horizontal reference line
D
1. Park the vehicle directly in front of a wall
or screen on a level surface,
approximately 25 feet (7.6 meters) away.
2. Measure the height of the headlamp bulb
center from the ground and mark an 8
foot (2.4 meter) horizontal reference line
on the vertical wall or screen at this
height.
Note: To see a clearer light pattern for
adjusting, you may want to block the light
from one headlamp while adjusting the
other.
3. Switch on the low beam headlamps to light the wall or screen and open the
hood. 4. On the wall or screen, you will observe
a flat zone of high intensity light located
at the top of the right hand portion of the
beam pattern. If the top edge of the high
intensity light zone is not at the horizontal
reference line, you will need to adjust the
headlamp.

5. Locate the vertical adjuster on each
headlamp. Turn the adjuster either
clockwise or counterclockwise in order
to aim the headlamp.
6. Close the hood and switch off the lamps.
Horizontal Aim Adjustment
Horizontal aim is not required for this vehicle
and is non-adjustable. REMOVING A HEADLAMP
1.
Make sure the headlamp control is in the
off position and open the hood.
2. Remove the pushpin and the four screws
from the headlamp assembly.
3. Carefully pull the headlamp assembly as
far as possible toward the front of the
vehicle to disengage it from the lower
fixing point.
4. Carefully lift the outer side of the headlamp and remove it.
5. Disconnect the electrical connector. CHANGING A BULB
Lamp Assembly Condensation
The vents in the exterior lamps allow for
normal changes in pressure. Condensation
can be a natural by-product of this design.
When moist air enters the lamp assembly
through the vents, there is a possibility that
condensation can occur when the
temperature is cold. When normal
condensation occurs, a thin film of mist can
form on the interior of the lens. The thin mist
eventually clears and exits through the vents
during normal operation. Clearing time may
take as long as 48 hours under dry weather
conditions.
Examples of acceptable condensation are:
•
Presence of thin mist (no streaks, drip
marks or droplets).
• Fine mist covers less than 50% of the
lens.
293
MKC (TME), enUSA MaintenanceE171165 E171166
Page 297 of 490

Examples of unacceptable moisture (usually
caused by a lamp water leak) are:
•
Water puddle inside the lamp.
• Large water droplets, drip marks or
streaks present on the interior of the lens.
Take your vehicle to a dealer for service if
any of the above conditions of unacceptable
moisture are present.
Replacing High Intensity Discharge
Headlamp Bulbs (If Equipped)
The headlamps on your vehicle use a high
intensity discharge source. These lamps
operate at a high voltage. When the bulb
burns out, have the bulb and starter capsule
assembly replaced by your authorized
dealer. Replacing Front Indicator Bulbs 1. Turn the bulb socket counterclockwise
and remove it from the headlamp
assembly.
2. Gently pull the bulb straight out of the socket.
Install the new bulb in reverse order.
Replacing Signal Indicator Mirror Bulbs
Your vehicle uses a LED for the signal
indicator mirror lamps. If replacement is
required, see your authorized dealer. Replacing Approach Lamp Bulbs
Your vehicle uses a LED for the approach
lamps. If replacement is required, see your
authorized dealer.
Replacing Tail, Brake and Direction
Indicator Bulbs
Your vehicle uses a LED for the tail, brake
and direction indicator lamps. If replacement
is required, see your authorized dealer.
Replacing Reverse Lamp Assembly
Your vehicle uses a LED for the reverse
lamps. If replacement is required, see your
authorized dealer.

BULB SPECIFICATION CHART
The specified replacement bulbs are in the
chart below. Headlamp bulbs must be
marked with an authorized D.O.T.
(Department of Transportation) for North
America to affirm lamp performance, light
brightness and pattern and safe visibility. The
correct bulbs will not damage the lamp
assembly or void the lamp assembly warranty
and will provide quality bulb burn time. Trade number
