Homelink
Description
Homelink is a fixed system installed on
the vehicle. It can sync up to three
different devices that activate garage
doors, gates, lighting systems, and home
or office alarm systems.
Programming
Warning!
Vehicle exhaust contains carbon
monoxide, a dangerous gas. Do not run your
vehicle in the garage while programming the
transceiver. Exhaust gas can cause serious
injury or death.
Your motorized door or gate will open and
close while you are programming the
universal transceiver. Do not program the
transceiver if people, pets or other objects
are in the path of the door or gate. Only use
this transceiver with a garage door opener
that has a “stop and reverse” feature as
required by Federal safety standards. This
includes most garage door opener models
manufactured after 1982. Do not use a
garage door opener without these safety
features. Call toll-free 1-800-355-3515 or,

When the engine is started, the warning
light illuminates briefly to signal the
driver that the system is active.
Sensors
The sensors are activated when any
forward gear is engaged at a speed
higher than approximately 6 mph
(10 km/h) or when REVERSE is engaged.
The sensors are temporarily deactivated
when the vehicle is stationary or the
vehicle is in PARK (P).
The detection area of the system covers
approximately a lane on both sides of the
vehicle which is around 9 feet (3 m).
This area begins from the door mirror and
extends for approximately 19 feet (6 m)
toward the rear part of the vehicle.
When the sensors are active, the system
monitors the detection areas on both
sides of the vehicle and warns the driver
about the possible presence of vehicles
in these areas.While driving, the system monitors the
detection area from three different input
points (side, rear and front) to check
whether an alert needs to be sent to the
driver. The system can detect the
presence of a vehicle in one of these
three areas.
Note:
The system does not alert the driver
of the presence of fixed objects (e.g.
safety barriers, poles, walls, etc.).
However, in some circumstances, the
system may activate in the presence of
these objects. This is normal and does
not indicate a system malfunction.
The system does not alert the driver
about the presence of vehicles coming
from the opposite direction, in the
adjacent lanes.
Warning!
The Blind Spot Monitoring system is only an
aid to help detect objects in the blind spot
zones. The BSM system is not designed to
detect pedestrians, bicyclists, or animals.
Even if your vehicle is equipped with the
BSM system, always check your vehicle’s
mirrors, glance over your shoulder, and use
your turn signal before changing lanes.
Failure to do so can result in serious injury or
death.
Note:
For the system to operate properly,
the rear bumper area where the radar
sensors are located must stay free from
snow, ice and dirt gathered from the
road surface.
Do not cover the rear bumper area
where the radar sensors are located with
any object (e.g. adhesives, bike rack,
etc.).
If you wish to install a rear tow eye
after purchasing the vehicle, you will
need to deactivate the system via the
Information and Entertainment System.
To access the function, select the
following items in sequence on the main
menu:
1. “Settings.”
2. “Safety.”
3. “Blind Spot Alert.”
Rear View
The system detects vehicles coming from
the rear part of your vehicle on both sides
and entering the rear detection area with
a difference in speed of less than 31 mph
(50 km/h) in relation to your vehicle.0434132127USBSM Indicator Light

starting procedure can be shown in the
display.
Warning!
When leaving the vehicle, always remove
the key fob from the vehicle and lock your
vehicle.
Never leave children alone in a vehicle, or
with access to an unlocked vehicle.
Allowing children to be in a vehicle
unattended is dangerous for a number of
reasons. A child or others could be seriously
or fatally injured. Children should be warned
not to touch the parking brake, brake pedal
or the transmission gear selector.
Do not leave the key fob in or near the
vehicle, or in a location accessible to
children. A child could operate power
windows, other controls, or move the
vehicle.
Do not leave children or animals inside
parked vehicles in hot weather. Interior heat
build-up may cause serious injury or death.
Starting Procedure
Proceed as follows:
1. Apply the electric park brake and set
the gear selector to PARK (P) or
NEUTRAL (N).
2. Fully depress the brake pedal without
touching the accelerator.
3. Briefly push the ignition button.
4. If the engine doesn't start within a few
seconds, you need to repeat the
procedure.
If the problem persists, contact an
authorized dealer.
Warning!
Never pour fuel or other flammable liquid
into the throttle body air inlet opening in an
attempt to start the vehicle. This could
result in flash fire causing serious personal
injury.
Do not attempt to push or tow your
vehicle to get it started. Vehicles equipped
with an automatic transmission cannot be
started this way. Unburned fuel could enter
the catalytic converter and once the engine
has started, ignite and damage the
converter and vehicle.
If the vehicle has a discharged battery,
booster cables may be used to obtain a
start from a booster battery or the battery
in another vehicle. This type of start can be
dangerous if done improperly. Refer to “Jump Starting” in “In Case Of Emergency”
for further information.
Caution!
To prevent damage to the starter, do not
continuously crank the engine for more than
25 seconds at a time. Wait 60 seconds
before trying again.
Remote Starting System
This system uses the key fob to start the
engine conveniently from outside the
vehicle while still maintaining security.
The system has a range of at least 300
feet (91 meters).
The remote starting system also
activates the climate control (if
equipped), the heated seats (if equipped),
and the heated steering wheel (if
equipped), depending on temperatures
outside and inside of the vehicle.
Note:
Obstructions between the vehicle
and key fob may reduce this range.
How To Use Remote Start
All of the following conditions must be
met before the engine will remote start:
Gear selector in PARK (P).
Doors closed.
Hood closed.
Liftgate closed.
Hazard switch off.
146
STARTING AND OPERATING

The driver is fully responsible for holding
a safe distance from the vehicle ahead
respecting the highway code in force in the
respective country.
“Stop And Go” Function
The “Stop and Go” feature allows you to
maintain a safe distance from the vehicle
ahead until the vehicle has completely
stopped. It will also restart the vehicle
automatically if the vehicle ahead drives
away within two seconds, otherwise it is
necessary to press the accelerator pedal
or push the RES button to restart.
Warning!
When the ACC system is resumed, the driver
must ensure that there are no pedestrians,
vehicles or objects in the path of the vehicle.
Failure to follow these warnings can result in
a collision and death or serious personal
injury.
Deactivation
The system is deactivated and the set
speed is canceled if:
The(on/off) button is pushed (when
the system is on or paused).
The ignition is in STOP mode.
RACE mode is activated.
The system is canceled (the set speed
and distance are stored):
When the system is paused (refer to
the “Activation / Deactivation” section).
When the conditions shown in the
“Setting The Desired Speed” section
occur.
Limited Operation Warning
If the dedicated message is shown on the
display, a condition limiting the Adaptive
Cruise Control operation may have
occurred.
This could be due to an obstruction of the
vehicle’s sensor or camera. It could also
be due to a fault in the system. If an
obstruction is detected, clean the area of
the windshield opposite the interior rear
view mirror, where the camera is located,
as well as the area of the front bumper
where the sensor is located. Then check
that the message has disappeared.
When the conditions limiting the system
functions end, normal operation will
resume.
Should the fault persist, contact your
authorized dealer.
Precautions While Driving
The system may not work correctly in
some driving conditions (see below). The
driver must control the vehicle at all
times. Vehicle Not Aligned
The system may not detect a vehicle
traveling in the same lane, in the same
direction, but is not aligned. It also may
not detect a vehicle which is cutting in
from a side lane. Sufficient distance from
the vehicles ahead may not be
guaranteed in these cases.
The non-aligned vehicle can weave in and
out of the driving lane causing the vehicle
to brake or accelerate unexpectedly.
Steering And Curves
Driving on curves with the system set
could limit speed and acceleration to
guarantee vehicle stability, even if no
vehicles are detected ahead.
When leaving the curve, the system
resets the previously set speed.

LANE DEPARTURE WARNING
(LDW) SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
Description
The Lane Departure Warning system uses
a forward looking camera located on the
windshield to detect lane markings and
measure vehicle position within the lane
boundaries.
When one or both lane limits are
detected and the vehicle passes over one
without an activated turn signal, the
system emits a visual as well as an
acoustic signal.
If the vehicle continues to go beyond the
line of the lane without any intervention
from the driver, the surpassed line will
light up on the display (left or right) to
urge the driver to bring the vehicle back
into the limits of the lane.
Caution!
Do not tamper with nor operate on the
camera. Do not close the openings in the
aesthetic cover located under the interior
rear view mirror. In the event of a failure of
the camera, contact your authorized dealer.
The camera may have limited or absent
operation due to weather conditions such
as: heavy rain, hail, thick fog, heavy snow,
formation of ice layers on the windshield.
Camera operation may also be
compromised by the presence of dust,
condensation, dirt or ice on the windshield,
by traffic conditions (e.g. vehicles that are
driving not aligned with yours, vehicle
driving in a transverse or opposite way on
the same lane, bend with a small radius of
curvature), by road surface conditions and
by driving conditions (e.g. off-road driving).
Make sure the windshield is always clean.
Use specific detergents and clean cloths to
avoid scratching the windshield. The camera
operation may also be limited or absent in
some driving, traffic and road surface
conditions.
If the windshield must be replaced due to
scratches, chipping or breakage, contact
exclusively your authorized dealer. Do not
replace the windshield on your own. It is
advisable to replace the windshield if it is
damaged in the area of the camera.
System Activation/Deactivation
The system is activated/deactivated by
pushing the button located on the end of
the multifunction lever.
Note: When the engine is started, the
system maintains the operating mode
that was selected when it was turned
OFF.
Activation Conditions
Once turned on, the system becomes
active only if the following conditions are
met:
The vehicle speed is above 37 mph
(60 km/h).
The lane limit lines are visible at least
on one side.
07226S0001EMLane Departure Warning System Activation/Deactivation Button
176
STARTING AND OPERATING

When lane limits are detected, the
system is ready to provide indications in
case the driver unintentionally leaves the
lane (turn signal not activated).
As the Lane Departure Warning system
detects the lane limits while the vehicle is
in motion, it will adjust the display
accordingly (from white to yellow and
yellow to white, and increase their
thickness).If a line is crossed, the driver is alerted by
an audible signal as well as the visual
indication in the instrument cluster. The
signal is emitted through the speakers on
the side of the lane limit which is being
crossed (eg. if the vehicle is exceeding
the left line of the lane, the audible signal
will come from the speakers on the left of
the vehicle).
Changing The System Settings
The system's sensitivity can be set
through the Information and
Entertainment System. Sensitivity “High”
or “Low” can be selected.
To access the function, from the main
menu select the following in order:
1. “Settings.”
2. “Safety.”
3. “Lane Departure Warning.”
4. “Sensitivity.”Limited Operation Warning
If a message appears on the display, a
condition limiting the Lane Departure
Warning system operation may have
occurred. This could be an obstruction of
the camera view, or a fault in the system.
If an obstruction is detected, clean the
area of the windshield by the interior rear
view mirror.
Although the vehicle can still be driven in
normal conditions, the system may not
function properly.
When the conditions limiting the system
are corrected, it will go back to normal
operation. Should a fault persist, contact
an authorized dealer.
System Failure Warning
If the system turns off and
appears on
the display, it means that there is a
system fault.
In this case, it is still possible to drive the
vehicle, but you are advised to contact an
authorized dealer as soon as possible.
