Front Pedestrian Detection — During daytime driving at speeds of 5–50 mph, the system detects pedestrians directly ahead up to a distance of approximately 131 feet and displays an amber indicator. When approaching a detected pedestrian too quickly, a red alert flashes on the windshield and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or beeps sound (if selected). The system may prepare the brakes or automatically brake the vehicle.
To set the system to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Front Pedestrian Detection.
Rear Vision Camera — When the vehicle is in Reverse, a view of the area behind the vehicle displays on the touch screen. Vehicle speed must be below 5 mph.
To turn the guidance lines or symbols on or off, go to Settings > Rear Camera.
Front and Rear Parking Assist — During low-speed parking maneuvers, the system provides “distance to closest object” information on the Driver Information Center, sounds a beep (if selected), and pulses the Safety Alert Seat. When an object is very close, 5 beeps sound (if selected) from the front or rear of the vehicle and the Safety Alert Seat pulses.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert — When the vehicle is in Reverse, the system warns of traffic
coming in either direction by displaying a red alert on the infotainment screen and pulsing the left or right side of the Safety Alert Seat or sounding beeps (if selected).
Press the Parking Assist button (C) to turn the Parking Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Alert systems on or off.
