Front and Rear Parking Aids*
Sound an audible warning tone if there is an obstacle near the
vehicle’s front or rear bumpers. As the vehicle moves closer to the
obstacle, the rate of the warning tone increases in frequency. The
front sensors turn on automatically when the gearshift is in any
position other than park (P) and the vehicle speed is below
7 mph (12 km/h). The rear sensors detect certain objects while
the transmission is in reverse (R). See the Parking Aids chapter in
your Owner’s Manual for complete information on your vehicle’s
parking aids.
Lane Keeping 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. The system automatically detects
and tracks the road lane markings using a
camera mounted behind the interior rear
view mirror. Set your system settings as
desired by Mode and Intensity from your information display
screen. See the Information Displays chapter in your Owner’s
Manual for more details on how to change your settings.
Driver Alert*
Monitors your driving behavior using various inputs including
the front camera sensor. If the system detects that your driving
alertness level reduces below a certain threshold, then the system
sounds a tone and displays a message in the information display.
Press OK on the steering wheel to clear a warning, if required.
Pre-Collision Assist*
The system is designed to alert you of certain collision risks. The
system's sensor detects your vehicle's rapid approach to other
vehicles traveling in the same direction as your vehicle. When your
vehicle rapidly approaches another vehicle, a red warning light
flashes and a tone sounds.
The brake support system assists you in reducing the collision speed
by pre-charging the brakes. If the risk of a collision further increases
after the audio-visual warning, the brake support prepares the
brake system for rapid braking. The system does not automatically
activate the brakes, but if you press the brake pedal even lightly, the
brakes apply full stopping power. For complete information, refer to
the Driving Aids chapter of your Owner’s Manual.
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 system limitations.
SecuriCodeTM Keyless Entry Keypad*
Allows you to lock or unlock the doors, recall memory features and
arm or disarm the anti-theft alarm. The keypad, located near the
driver’s window, is invisible until touched and then it lights up so
you can see and touch the buttons. To get started, you need your
five-digit factory code found on your owner’s wallet card or you can
display it temporarily within the information display, if the card is not
handy. Entering this code unlocks the driver’s door. To lock all of the
doors, press and hold 7•8 and 9•0 at the same time. For complete
information, refer to the Locks chapter of your Owner’s Manual.
