Auto Idle Stop*
Automatically stops and restarts the engine to help maximize fuel economy,
depending on environmental and vehicle conditions.
Activating Auto Idle Stop
When the vehicle stops with the gear position in
Drive (D) and the brake pedal is pressed, the engine
turns off and the auto idle stop indicator appears if
conditions permit.
When you release the brake pedal, turn the steering
wheel, or press the accelerator pedal, the engine
restarts and the vehicle begins to move.
Auto idle stop does not activate (or the engine may automatically restart) when
the driver’s seat belt is unfastened, the vehicle is stopped on a steep hill, the
windshield defroster is on, and other conditions.
Turning the System On or Off
Press the Auto Idle Stop Off button to turn the
system off. Press the button again to turn it on.

Integrated Dynamics System ( IDS)
Choose a driving mode for your preference based on road conditions, vehicle speed,
and handling.
Comfort: Maximizes driver comfort through increased steering assist.
Normal: Balances performance for everyday driving.
Sport: Enhances vehicle response and feel through decreased steering assist and
increased throttle and torque.

Vehicle Stability Assist ( VSA®), aka Electronic Stability Control
( ESC) System
Helps to stabilize the vehicle during cornering if the vehicle turns more or less
than what was intended. It assists in maintaining traction on slippery surfaces by
regulating engine output and selectively applying the brakes.
Turning VSA On or Off
VSA is turned on every time you start the vehicle. If you turn VSA off, your
vehicle has normal braking and cornering ability, but VSA traction and stability
enhancement become less effective.
Press and hold the VSA OFF button until you hear
a beep to turn VSA on or off. The VSA Off indicator
appears when the system is off.
When VSA is off, traction control stops functioning,
which allows the wheels to spin more freely at low
speed. This can be helpful when trying to free your
vehicle if it is stuck in mud or snow.

Lane Keeping Assist System ( LKAS)*
Provides steering input to help keep the vehicle in the middle of a detected lane and
visual and tactile alerts if the vehicle is detected drifting out of its lane while driving
between 45–90 mph (72–145 km/h).
If your vehicle is getting too close to detected left
or right side lane markings without a turn signal
activated, the system provides visual and tactile
alerts.
A Lane Departure message appears on the MID,
and the steering wheel vibrates. Steering torque
is also applied to help keep your vehicle within
your driving lane. Take appropriate action to stay
within your driving lane.
Important Safety Reminder
LKAS is for your convenience only. It is not a substitute for your vehicle control. The
system does not work if you take your hands off the steering wheel or fail to steer
the vehicle.
Do not place an object on the top of the instrument panel. It may refl ect onto the
windshield and prevent the system from detecting lane lines properly.
Do not use when towing.

Road Departure Mitigation (RDM)*
Alerts and helps to assist you if the system determines a possibility of your vehicle
unintentionally crossing over detected lane markings while driving between 45–90
mph (72–145 km/h).
If your vehicle is getting too close to detected lane
markings without a turn signal activated, a message
appears in the MID. Steering wheel torque and
vibrations are applied to help your vehicle stay in
the lane.
Braking may also be applied if the lane lines are
solid and continuous.
If the system operates several times without
detecting driver response, the system beeps to alert
you.
Turning the System On or Off
Press the RDM button to turn the system on or off.
A green indicator appears on the button when the
system is on.
