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.
Before starting the engine, check the
following:
• Make sure all occupants havefastened 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:

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.

Starting and Stopping the Engine

• the vehicle is in a dynamicmaneuver
• 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 (e.g.
significant sun angles or shadows,
snow, heavy rain, fog), traffic
conditions (e.g. following a large
vehicle that is blocking or
shadowing the lane), or vehicle
conditions (e.g. 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.
The system can be temporarily
suppressed at any time by the
following:
• Quick braking
• Fast acceleration
• Using the turn signal indicator
• Evasive steering maneuver
Troubleshooting
Why is the feature not available (line markings are gray) when I can see the lane markings on the road?
Vehicle speed is outside the operational range of the feature
Sun is shining directly into the camera lens
Quick intentional lane change
Staying too close to the lane marking
Driving at high speeds in curves
Previous feature activation happened within the last one second
Ambiguous lane markings (mainly in construction zones)
Rapid transition from light to dark or vice versa
Sudden offset in lane markings
ABS or AdvanceTrac activation

Driving Aids

Action
Cause
Clean the grille surface in front of the
radar or remove the object causing the obstruction
The surface of the radar in the grille is
dirty or obstructed in some way
Wait a short time. It may take several
minutes for the radar to detect that it is no longer obstructed
The surface of the radar in the grille is
clean but the message remains in the display
The collision warning system is
temporarily disabled. Collision warning should automatically reactivate a
short time after the weather conditions improve
Heavy rain, spray, snow, or fog is inter-
fering with the radar signals
The collision warning system is
temporarily disabled. Collision warning should automatically reactivate a
short time after the weather conditions improve
Swirling water, or snow or ice on the
surface of the road may interfere with the radar signals
System Limitations
WARNING
The collision warning system’s
brake support can only help
reduce the speed at which a collision
occurs if the driver applies the
vehicle’s brakes. The brake pedal
must be pressed just like 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.
• Steering wheel and pedal movements are large (very active
driving style).

Vertical Aim Adjustment
Procedure
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. Turn on the low beam headlamps to illuminate the wall or screen and
open the hood.
E142465
4. On the wall or screen you willobserve 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, the
headlamp will need to be adjusted.
