Forward and Reverse Sensing Systems
These systems can warn you if there is an
object in front of or behind the vehicle.
The system will sound a warning tone that
increases in frequency as the object gets
closer and will sound continuously when
the object is less than 10 inches away. The
forward sensing system is automatically
activated when the vehicle is in D (Drive)
and is traveling under 8 mph (13 km/h).
The reverse sensing system is automatically
activated when the vehicle is in R (Reverse)
and is moving under 3 mph (5 km/h). Note:
Visibility aids do not replace the need to
watch where the vehicle is moving. Refer to
your Owner’s Guide for safety information,
more detail, and limitations.
Improved fuel economy while coasting
or decelerating
Your vehicle has been designed to improve
fuel economy by reducing fuel usage
while coasting or decelerating. This may
be perceived as a light to medium braking
sensation when removing your foot from the
accelerator pedal.
Collision Warning System (if equipped)
Uses a radar sensor to detect if vehicles
ahead of you which are moving in the same
direction may be a collision risk. The collision
warning system is active at speeds above
approximately 5 mph (8 km/h), and will alert
you with an audible chime and red warning
light which will appear above the dash. If
the risk of collision increases, the system
will increase brake support to help reduce
collision speed. Note: Driving aids do not
replace the need to watch where the vehicle
is moving and brake where necessary. The
system will not brake without the driver
depressing the brake pedal. Refer to your
Owner’s Guide for safety information, more
detail and limitations.

outside the running vehicle, or in certain
idle situations. This sound comes from
the direct injector system which is used to
improve your vehicle’s fuel economy and
engine performance.
