DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Safety Alert Seat♦ – The driver’s seat pulses — left side, right side, or simultaneously — to alert the driver of potential hazards.
Audible alerts may be selected instead of seat pulsing alerts. To change the alert settings, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Alert Type.
Forward Collision Alert♦ – The Vehicle Ahead indica-tor is green when a vehicle is detected and is amber when following a vehicle ahead much too closely. When approaching a vehicle directly ahead too
rapidly, a red alert flashes on the windshield and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or beeps sound (if selected).
Press the Collision Alert button (A) on the steering wheel to set the alert timing to Far, Medium or Near.
Forward/Reverse Automatic Braking♦ – The brakes may be applied automatically in potential collision situations to help reduce damage or help avoid collisions with vehicles directly ahead or behind, and with some objects behind, your vehicle.
To set Forward Automatic Braking to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Auto Collision Preparation.
To turn Parking Assist, Rear Cross Traffic Alert and Reverse Automatic Braking on or off, press the Parking Assist
button on the left side of the infotainment screen.
Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning♦ – The system may help avoid collisions due to unintentional lane departures. The Lane Keep Assist indicator is green if the system is available to assist. If the vehicle approaches a detected lane marking without using a turn signal in that direction, the system may assist by gently turning the steering wheel and display an amber .
If active driver steering is not detected, the amber may flash and the Safety Alert Seat may pulse or beeps may sound (if select-ed), on the side of the departure direction as the lane marking is crossed. In order to use this system safely, the driver needs to steer and be in complete control of the vehicle.
Press the Lane Keep Assist button (B) on the steering wheel to turn the system on or off.
Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert♦ – While driving, the system displays a warning symbol on the left or right side
mirror when a vehicle is detected in that side blind zone area or rap-idly approaching that area. The warning symbol flashes if a turn sig-nal is activated when a vehicle has been detected on the same side.
To turn the system on or off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Lane Change Alert.
Front Pedestrian Braking♦ – During daytime driving, the system detects pedestrians directly ahead up to a distance of approximately 131 ft. and displays an amber indicator. When approaching a detected pedestrian too quickly, a red alert flashes on the wind-shield and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or beeps sound (if selected). The system may prepare the brakes or automatically brake the vehicle.
To set to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Front Pedestrian Detection.
