sequence.
• For a continuous signal, push the lever up or down until it locks
into place.How It Works

transmitter (1 or 2).
1. Turn on the vehicle. Make sure the shift lever is in Park (P).3. Press SET. You will hear a beep.
2. Adjust the seat to your preferredposition. 4. Press the memory button
corresponding to the remote

seconds. You will hear two beeps.
Note: Once set, stored positions can be recalled by pressing one of the

How It Works
AUTO HEADLIGHTS WITH WIPER INTEGRATION
For your convenience, your vehicle’s headlights automatically turn on when the
windshield wipers operate.

The headlights also turn on.
When you turn off the windshield
wipers, the headlights turn off
shortly after.

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING (LDW)
Alerts you if your vehicle begins to move out of a detected lane without the turn signal
activated.
LDW may not activate under certain conditions. See your Owner’s Manual for more information.
How It Works
Turning LDW On or Off
Press LDW to turn the system on or off. A green indicator light appears on the
button when the system is on.
If you cross a lane line without using your turn signal, the
LDW indicator flashes and a beep sounds.
A camera mounted between the windshield and the rearview mirror determines
if your vehicle begins to move away from the center of a detected lane while
driving between 40_
90 mph.
FORWARD COLLISION WARNING (FCW)
How It Works
Alerts you to the possibility of a front-end collision.
FCW may not activate under certain conditions. See your Owner’s Manual for more information.
At 10 mph or higher, if the camera mounted in the center of the upper windshield
detects a vehicle in front of you and the system determines a collision is likely, the
system provides you with the following visual and audible alerts.
Changing Settings

1. Press and hold DISP to go to
the Settings screen. Use the
selector knob to make and
enter selections.

5. Press BACK to exit the menu.
If you do not brake in time or take preventive action, the heads-up light near
the windshield flashes twice, the FCW indicator flashes continuously, and a
beep sounds continuously.

SAFETY REMINDER
Your vehicle is equipped with airbags. Airbags do not replace seat belts; they add to
the protection offered by seat belts. Airbags can help protect you in some types of
collisions, but they do not provide protection in all collisions.
Always make sure you and your passengers wear seat belts, and that young children
are properly secured in a child seat or booster in the rear seat. Never place an
infant seat in the front passenger’s seat as the force of a deploying airbag can
seriously injure an infant.
