BLIND SPOT WARNING (BSW)
WITH REAR CROSS TRAFFIC ALERT (RCTA)* (if so equipped)

detection zone.
An indicator light located near the outside mirrors

vehicle in the detection zone.
Push the warning systems switc h 2 to
temporarily turn the system off. When the system
is off, the indicator light

the indicator light
4 in the vehicle information
display will extinguish.
The indicator light 3 on the switch will also be
off if all of the warning systems are deactivated
using the Setting menu.
The indicator lights 3 and 4 will illuminate after the ignition switch
is ON and the BSW system is enabled. This indicates that the BSW
system is operational.
The RCTA system helps to alert the driver of an approaching vehicle when the driver is backing out of a parking space. The system operates when the shift lever
is in the R (REVERSE) position and the vehicle speed is less than approximately
5 mph (8 km/h).
The radar sensors detect an approaching vehicle from up to 66 ft (20 m). The sensors are located on both sides near the rear bumper. The system gives visual and audible
warnings if an approaching vehicle is detected.
The RCTA system can be turned on or off through the Driving Aids menu in the ve\
hicle
information display.
For more information, refer to the “Instruments and controls (section 2)” and the “Starting and driving
(section 5)” of your Owner’s Manual.
HILL DESCENT CONTROL (HDC) (if so equipped)

hills. The HDC system helps to control vehicle speed so the driver can concentrate on\

steering the vehicle. To activate the system:
The 4WD shift switch must be placed in the LOCK position

must be under 15 mph (25 km/h) on steeper
hill grades.
The HDC switch 2 must be on.
