ADAPTIVE FRONT-LIGHTING SYSTEM (AFS) (if equipped)
The adaptive front-lighting system (AFS) automatically turns the
headlight beam to the right or left in conjunction with the direction of
the steering wheel.
The AFS improves the direction of headlight illumination while cornering, and
only works when the vehicle is moving.
NOTE:
• With AFS, it is normal to see the headlights move and hear the sound of the
he adlight leveling motors at the front of the vehicle when the ignition is ON.
•
The system will need to be reset if the vehicle battery has been disconnected
or the system fuse has been replaced. Please refer to your Owner’s Manual for
easy to follow resetting instructions.

LDWS
LANE DE PA RTU R E WARNING SYSTE M (LDWS) (if equipped)
The Lane Departure Warning System (LDWS) recognizes painted lane
lines on a road using the forward sensing camera (FSC) installed to the
windshield. If the vehicle deviates from its lane at speeds of 37 mph
or higher, the system alerts the driver of the lane departure using the
following indicator lights and warning sound .
Use the LDWS switch to
turn system ON or OFF
NOTE: Any driver input (e.g., turn signal, steering or acceleration) will cancel warning.

LDWS functions have limitations. Do not rely solely
on the LDWS. Relying solely on the LDWS may
cause an unexpected accident resulting in death or
serious injury. Always make lane corrections using
the steering wheel and drive safely.

TIRE PRESSURE MONI TORING SYSTE M (TP MS)
Your vehicle is equipped with a Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
that detects low tire pressure in one or more tires. In the following cases,
the TPMS must be “initialized” so the system can operate normally.
• The tire pressure is adjusted (up or down) in one or more tires.
• A tire ro tation is pe rformed.
• Any ti re or wh eel is re placed.
•
The ve hicle’s ba tter y is di sconnected, re placed or co mpletely de ad.
Initialization Process (TPMS Warning Light is Illuminated):
1 Park the vehicle in a safe place and frmly apply the parking brake.
2 Let t he tires cool, then adjust the tire pressure to the specifed
pressure (S ee ti re la bel lo cated on th e dr i ve r’s si de B- pillar or ed ge
of dr iver’s door frame for specifcation) on all four (4) tires.
3 Swi tch the ignition ON, but leave the vehicle parked.
4 Pus h and hold the TPMS “Set Switch” (left side of dash)
until the TPMS warning light
in the
instrument cluster fashes twice and a
beep sound is heard once.

NOTE: See Page 7 for TPMS switch location.
CAUTION: If the TPMS “Set Switch” is pushed without adjusting the tire
pressure, the system cannot detect the normal tire pressure. The TPMS
warning light may not illuminate, even if the tire pressure is low, or it may

Transmission
MANUAL SHIFT MODE (if eq uipped)
The Manual Shift Mode gives you the feel of driving a manual transmission
by allowing you to manually shift to control engine rpm and torque when
more control is desired.
To Use Steering Shift Switches:
• Shift the lever from D or M.
To Shift Up To A
Higher Gear:
• Pull the steering
UP switch (+) once.
To Shift D own To A
Lower Gear:
• Pull the steering
DOWN switch (-) once.
- D OWN Shift
Switch+ UP Shift Switch
NOTE: Steering Shift Switches
can be used in “D” or “M”.
ACTIVE A DAPTI VE SHIFT (A AS) CONTROL
A AS will automatically adjust how and when the transmission shifts gears
based on road conditions and your driving style.
The transmission may stay in a lower gear longer than usual when going up or
down hills or driving around corners. This feature gives you better control and
a more connected driving experience.
(if equipped)
SPORT MOD E (if equipped)
SPORT mode allows greater response and
control when driving on mountain roads
as well as on freeways by adjusting the
transmission shift schedule.
Fuel consumption increases slightly because
higher engine speeds (i.e., lower gear position) are used in
Sports mode compared to normal mode. Use Sports mode
and normal mode depending on the road conditions and
situation. The SPORT mode indicator light in the instrument
cluster is illuminated while in SPORT mode and is not illuminated
while in normal mode.

Blind Spot Monitoring System
BLIND SPOT MONI TORING (B SM) (if equipped)
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) system is designed to assist the driver
by monitoring blind spots on both sides of the vehicle to the rear in
certain situations such as when changing lanes on roads and freeways or
reversing the vehicle from a parking garage.
The Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM) System consists of the Blind Spot Monitoring
(BSM) and Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA).
Turning BSM System Off
Turning the BSM system off will turn off both the light and sound
indicators. To manually turn the BSM system off, push the BSM
OFF switch on the dash. The BSM OFF indicator will illuminate
in the instrument cluster when the BSM system is off. The BSM
system will automatically turn on the next time the vehicle is started.
• If your vehicle speed is 6.7 mph (10.8 km/h) or more, the BSM will warn
you of vehicles in the detection area by illuminating the BSM warning
lights located on the left and right door mirrors.
•
If you operate a turn signal in the direction of an illuminated BSM warning
light, the system will also warn you with a beep and warning light fash.
•
BSM sensors are located under the left and right rear bumper areas. The
BSM system may not operate properly if the rear bumper gets too dirty,
so keep the rear bumper area clean.
