WARNING
The rear sonar system is a convenience
but it is not a substitute for proper back-
ing. Always turn and check that it is safe to
do so before backing up. Always back up
slowly.
The rear sonar system (if so equipped) is active
when the ignition switch is placed in the ON
position and the shift lever is in R (Reverse) .
When sensors detect obstacles within 6 ft
(1.8 m) of the rear bumper, a beeping tone is
emitted. The rear sonar system can be disabled by push-
ing the OFF switch. When the system is disabled,
the indicator light on the switch will illuminate.
The system will automatically reset the next time
the ignition switch is placed in the ON position.
For additional information, refer to “Rear sonar
system (RSS) (if so equipped)” in the “Starting
and driving” section in this manual.
The Warning Systems switch is used to turn on
and off the warning systems (Forward Collision
Warning (FCW) , Lane Departure Warning
(LDW) and Blind Spot Warning (BSW) systems)
that are activated using the settings menu on the
vehicle information display.
When the warning systems switch is turned off,

will also be off if all of the warning systems are
deactivated using the settings menu.
The FCW system will sound a warning chime and

fer to “Forward Collision Warning (FCW) sys-
tem” in the “Starting and driving” section of this
manual.
The LDW system will sound a warning chime and
blink the LDW/LDP indicator light (orange) to
alert the driver if the vehicle is traveling close to
either the left or the right of a traveling lane with
detectable lane markers. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
system/Lane Departure Prevention (LDP) sys-
tem” in the “Starting and driving” section of this
manual.
The BSW system will turn on the BSW/Blind
Spot Intervention® (BSI) indicator lights, located
next to the outside mirrors, if the radar sensors
detect a vehicle in the detection zone. If the turn
signal is activated in the direction of the detected
vehicle, a chime sounds twice and the BSW/BSI
indicator light will flash. For additional informa-
tion, refer to “Blind Spot Warning (BSW)
system/Blind Spot Intervention/® (BSI)
system/Back-up Collision Intervention (BCI) sys-
tem” in the “Starting and driving” section of this
manual.The vehicle should be driven with the VDC sys-
tem on for most driving conditions.
If the vehicle is stuck in mud or snow, the VDC
system reduces the engine output to reduce
wheel spin. The engine speed will be reduced
even if the accelerator is depressed to the floor. If
maximum engine power is needed to free a stuck
vehicle, turn the VDC system off.
To turn off the VDC system, push the VDC OFF
switch. The
indicator will come on.Push the VDC OFF switch again or restart the
engine to turn on the system. For additional infor-
mation, refer to “Vehicle Dynamic Control (VDC)
system” in the “Starting and driving” section of
