Forward Collision Warning (FCW)*
Alerts you if the system determines the possibility of your vehicle colliding with a
vehicle detected in front of you when your vehicle speed is 10 mph (15 km/h) or
higher.
If you do not brake in time or take preventive
action, BRAKE flashes in the MID and a beep sounds
continuously.
Changing Settings
Determine the warning timing, or turn the system off. Use the interface dial to
make selections.

Important Safety Reminder
FCW cannot detect all objects ahead and may not detect a given object; accuracy
of the system will vary based on weather, speed, and other factors. FCW does not
include a braking function. It is always your responsibility to safely operate the
vehicle and avoid collisions.
*if equipped
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)*
Alerts you if the system detects 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 left
or right side lane markings without a turn signal
activated, a message appears in the MID and a beep
sounds continuously.
Turning LDW On or Off Press the LDW button to turn the system on or off.
A green indicator light appears on the button when
the system is on.
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, LDW has limitations. Over-reliance on LDW may result
in a collision. It is always your responsibility to keep the vehicle within your lane.
LDW only alerts you when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in use. LDW
may not detect all lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will vary based on
weather, speed, and lane marker condition. It is always your responsibility to safely
operate the vehicle and avoid collisions.

Alert Stages
The system has three alert stages for a possible collision. Depending on the
circumstances or CMBS settings, CMBS may not go through all of the stages
before initiating the last stage.
Stage 1:
Visual warnings
and audible warning
Stage 2:
Visual
warnings, audible warning, light seat belt retraction, and
light brak
e application
Stage 3:
Visual
warnings, audible warning, strong seat belt retraction, and
str
ong brake application
Turning CMBS On or OffPress and hold the CMBS OFF button. A beep
sounds and a message appears in the MID. The
CMBS indicator appears when the system is off.
Changing SettingsSee page 86 for how to change CMBS settings. Options include Long, Normal
(default), and Short. Use the CMBS OFF button to turn the system off.
Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS)*
Provides steering input to help keep the vehicle in the middle of a detected lane
and audible and visual 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 steering wheel vibrates, a message
appears in the MID, and a beep sounds continuously.
The system also applies steering torque to keep the
vehicle in the middle of the lane. The applied torque
becomes stronger as the vehicle gets closer to either
of the lane lines.
Important Safety Reminder
The 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.
The LKAS only alerts you when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in use.
The LKAS may not detect all lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will vary
based on weather, speed, and lane marker condition.
It is always your responsibility to safely operate the vehicle and avoid collisions.
Turning LKAS On or Off

*if equipped
Collision Mitigation Braking System™ (CMBS™)*
Can assist you when a potential frontal collision with a vehicle or pedestrian is
determined while driving at 3 mph (5 km/h) or above, and reduce your vehicle
speed when a collision is deemed unavoidable to help minimize collision severity.
The system provides visual and audible alerts if you
do not take appropriate action to avoid a collision.
If a collision with an oncoming vehicle is detected,
the system provides rapid vibrations on the steering
wheel in addition to the visual and audible alerts.
Important Safety Reminder
CMBS is designed to reduce the severity of an unavoidable collision. It does not
prevent collision nor stop the vehicle automatically. It is still your responsibility to
operate the brake pedal and steering wheel appropriately according to the driving
conditions.

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 and the system applies steering
torque and rapid vibrations on the steering wheel to
help you remain within the driving lane.
Braking may also be applied if the lane lines are solid
and continuous.

A green indicator appears on the button when the
system is on.

*if equipped
Blind Spot Information (BSI)*
Alerts you to a detected vehicle in your left or right blind spot while driving 20 mph
(32 km/h) or higher.
When a vehicle is detected in your blind spot, the
blind spot indicator turns on and stays lit until the
area is clear.
When your turn signal is on and a vehicle is detected,
the blind spot indicator blinks and a beep sounds until
the area is clear or the turn signal is off.
Changing BSI Settings Change the alert type, or turn the system on or off. Use the interface dial to make
selections.

Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, BSI has limitations. Over-reliance on BSI may result in a
collision. The system is for your convenience only.
*if equipped
Failure to visually confirm that it is safe to change lanes before doing so may
result in a crash and serious injury or death. Do not rely only on the blind spot
information system when changing lanes.
Always look in your mirrors, to either side of your vehicle, and behind you for
other vehicles before changing lanes.
