which employs the use of two distinctly
different kinds of sensors, a radar sensor
located in the lower bumper and a front
sensor camera mounted to the interior side
of the windshield, behind the rearview
mirror.
Front Sensor Camera The camera is located
behind the rearview
mirror.

Helps maintain a constant vehicle speed and
a set following interval behind a vehicle
detected ahead of yours and, if the detected
vehicle comes to a stop, can decelerate and
stop your vehicle, wi thout you having to
keep your foot on the brake or the
accelerator.

(P 456)
Provides steering input to help keep the
vehicle in the middle of a detected lane and
provides tactile and visual alerts if the

Braking System
TM
(CMBS
TM) (P 482)
Can assist you when there is a possibility of
your vehicle colliding with a vehicle or a
