vehicle. This can help avoid or
lessen the severity of crashes when
driving in a forward gear.
SeeFront Automatic Braking (FAB)
System 0292.
Lane Keep Assist (LKA)
If equipped, LKA may help avoid
crashes due to unintentional lane
departures. It may assist by gently
turning the steering wheel if the
vehicle approaches a detected lane
marking without using a turn signal
in that direction. It may also provide
a Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
alert as the lane marking is crossed.
The system will not assist or alert if
it detects that you are actively
steering. Override LKA by turning
the steering wheel. LKA uses a
camera to detect lane markings
between 60 km/h (37 mph) and
180 km/h (112 mph).
See Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
0 296 andLane Keep Assist
(LKA) 0296.
Lane Change Alert (LCA)
If equipped, the LCA system is a
lane-changing aid that assists
drivers with avoiding lane change
crashes that occur with moving
vehicles in the side blind zone (or
spot) areas or with vehicles rapidly
approaching these areas from
behind. The LCA warning display
will light up in the corresponding
outside side mirror and will flash if
the turn signal is on. The Side Blind
Zone Alert (SBZA) system is
included as part of the LCA system.
See Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
0 293 andLane Change Alert
(LCA) 0294.
Surround Vision
If equipped, views around the
vehicle display on the center stack
to aid with parking and low-speed
maneuvers.
See “Surround Vision” under
Assistance Systems for Parking or
Backing 0285.
Front Vision Camera
If equipped, a view of the area in
front of the vehicle displays on the
center stack to aid with parking and
low-speed maneuvers.
See “Front Vision Camera” under
Assistance Systems for Parking or
Backing 0285.
Rear Vision
Camera (RVC)
If equipped, RVC displays a view of
the area behind the vehicle on the
infotainment display when the
vehicle is shifted into R (Reverse) to
aid with parking and low-speed
backing maneuvers.
See Assistance Systems for Parking
or Backing 0285.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert
(RCTA) System
If equipped, the RCTA system uses
a triangle with an arrow displayed
on the RVC screen to warn of traffic
behind your vehicle that may cross

In Brief 21
your vehicle's path while in
R (Reverse). In addition, beeps will
sound, or the driver seat will pulse.
SeeAssistance Systems for Parking
or Backing 0285.
Parking Assist
If equipped, Rear Parking
Assist (RPA) uses sensors on the
rear bumper to assist with parking
and avoiding objects while in
R (Reverse). It operates at speeds
less than 8 km/h (5 mph). RPA may
display a warning triangle on the
Rear Vision Camera screen and a
graphic on the instrument cluster to
provide the object distance. In
addition, multiple beeps or seat
pulses may occur if very close to an
object.
The vehicle may also have the Front
Parking Assist system.
See Assistance Systems for Parking
or Backing 0285.
Automatic Parking
Assist (APA)
If equipped, the APA system helps
to search for and maneuver the
vehicle into parallel or perpendicular
parking spots using automatic
steering, DIC displays, and beeps.
When the vehicle speed is below
30 km/h (18 mph), press
Oto
enable the system.
See “Automatic Parking Assist
(APA)” underAssistance Systems
for Parking or Backing 0285.
Power Outlets
The vehicle has four 12-volt
accessory power outlets, which can
be used to plug in electrical
equipment, such as a cell phone or
MP3 player.
There are power outlets:
.
On the center floor console.
. Inside the center floor console.
. On the rear of the center floor
console.
. In the rear cargo area. To use the outlet, remove the cover.
See
Power Outlets 0108.
Universal Remote System
This system provides a way to
replace up to three remote control
transmitters used to activate
devices such as garage door
openers, security systems, and
home automation devices.
Read the instructions completely
before attempting to program the
Universal Remote system. Because
of the steps involved, it may be
