REAR VIEW CAMERA*The feature provides a video image of
the area behind the vehicle. The image
automatically appears in the touchscreen

FRONT AND REAR
PARKING AIDS*
The front sensors are active when the
transmission is in any position other than park (P). When your vehicle approaches an object, a warning tone sounds. When your vehicle moves closer to an object, the warning tone repeat rate increases.
The rear sensors are active only when the transmission is in reverse (R). As your vehicle moves closer to the obstacle, the rate of the audible warning increases.
SIDE SENSING SYSTEM* The side sensing system uses the front and rear side sensors to detect and map obstacles that are near to the sides of your vehicle. The side sensors are active when the transmission is in any position other than park (P). As the object comes closer to the side of your vehicle, the rate of the audible warning increases.

Note: Visibility aids do not replace the need to watch where the vehicle is moving. Refer to your Owner’s Manual for safety information, more
details and limitations.
LANE KEEPING SYSTEM*This system notifies you to stay in your
lane through the steering system and the
instrument cluster display when the front
camera detects an unintentional drift out of
your lane is likely to occur.
Select from three notification modes within
your information display:
Alert: Provides a steering wheel vibration.
Aid: Provides an assistance steering torque
input toward the lane center.
Alert + Aid: Provides an assistance steering
torque input toward the lane center. If your
vehicle continues drifting out of the lane,
the system provides a steering
wheel vibration.
Press the
button located on the left
steering wheel lever to switch the system
ON or OFF.
DRIVER ALERT* The system automatically
monitors your driving behavior
using various inputs including
the front camera sensor. If the
system detects that your driving alertness
is reduced below a certain threshold, the
system will alert you using a tone and a
message in the cluster display. Switch the system on or off using the
information display. When activated, the
system monitors your alertness level based
upon your driving behavior in relation to the
lane markings and other factors.
See the Driving Aids chapter in your
Owner’s Manual for more information.

2. Pivot the head restraint forward toward
your head to the desired position.
After the head restraint
reaches the forward-
most tilt position,
pivoting it forward
again releases it to
the rearward,
un-tilted position.
