Automatic Transmission
StabiliTrak®/Traction Control Systems
The traction control system limits wheelspin and the StabiliTrak electronic stability con-trol system assists with directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions.
Both systems turn on automatically every time the vehicle is started.
Driver Shift Control
Driver Shift Control allows the driver to shift gears manually. This feature can be used to
drive the vehicle in a sportier manner or to downshift when driving on a downhill grade
to provide engine braking.

Move the shift lever to the left of the
Drive (D) position. Tap the shift lever
forward (+) to upshift or rearward to
downshift (–). The currently selected
gear will be displayed on the instru
-ment cluster.
If vehicle speed is too high or too low for
the requested gear, the shift will not occur.
When coming to a stop, the transmission
will automatically downshift.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner Manual.

stuck and rocking the vehicle is required.

Control button on the top center of the

The driver assistance systems use advanced technologies to help avoid collisions by
providing visual and audible alerts under some imminent collision conditions.
Forward Collision Alert
F – The Vehicle Ahead indicator
illuminates in green on the instrument cluster when a vehicle
is detected and illuminates in amber when following a vehicle
ahead too closely. When approaching a vehicle directly ahead too
quickly, the system flashes a visual alert on the windshield and
sounds an audible tone.
To set the alert timing to Far, Medium, or Near, press the Collision Alert button or the Follow Distance Gap
buttonF on the left side of the steering wheel.
Lane Departure Warning
F – When crossing a detected lane marking without using a turn
signal, the system flashes a visual alert and sounds an audible tone. The system operates
at speeds of 35 mph or greater.
To turn the system on or off, press the Lane Departure
Warning button (A) on the top center of the instrument panel.
Front
F and Rear Parking AssistF – During low-speed parking
maneuvers, the Front and Rear Parking Assist
system provides
"distance to closest object" information on the Driver Information
Center and sounds a beep when an object is detected. One beep
sounds when an object is first detected and five beeps sound when an object is very close.
To turn the system on or off, press the Parking Assist button (B) on the top center
of the instrument panel.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert

To turn the alerts on or off, go to Collision/Detection Systems > Rear Cross Traffic Alert
in the Vehicle Settings menu.
Side Blind Zone Alert/Lane Change Alert

Side Blind Zone Alert/Lane Change Alert displays a
warning
symbol on the left or right side mirror when a vehicle is detected
in that side blind zone area or rapidly approaching that side blind
zone area. The warning symbol flashes if a turn signal is activated
when a vehicle has been detected.
To turn the system on or off, go to Collision/Detection Systems
> Lane Change Alert in the Vehicle Settings menu.
