A fuel-saving stop/start system has been integrated with the engine. While driving, when the brake pedal is applied and the vehicle is at a complete stop, the automatic engine stop/start system may turn off the engine, depending on operating conditions. When the engine is off, the tachometer gauge will read AUTO STOP. Upon releasing the brake pedal or applying the accelerator pedal, the engine will restart. After parking the vehicle and turn-ing off the engine, the tachometer gauge will read OFF.
The engine may remain running or restart when the vehicle is stopped if:\
• A minimum vehicle speed is not reached.
• The engine or transmission is not at the required operating temperature.
• The outside temperature is not in the required operating range.
• The shift lever is in any gear other than Drive (D).
• The battery charge is low or the battery has been disconnected.
• The current climate control or defog settings have not been reached.
• The Auto Stop time is greater than 2 minutes.

DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Safety or driver assistance features are no substitute for the driver’s responsibility to operate the vehicle in a safe manner. The driver should remain attentive to traffic, surroundings and road conditions at all times. Read your Owner’s Manual for important feature limitations and information.
Safety Alert SeatF — The driver’s seat pulses — left side, right side or simultaneously — to alert the driver of the direction of potential hazards.
Seat pulsing alerts or audible alerts may be selected. To change the alert settings, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Alert Type.
Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone AlertF — 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 rapidly approaching that area. The warning symbol flashes if a turn
signal 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.
Forward Collision AlertF — The Vehicle Ahead Indicator is green on the instrument
cluster 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 rapid beeps sound (if selected).
Press the Collision Alert button on the steering wheel to set the alert timing to Far, Medium, or Near. This is also the Adaptive Cruise ControlF following gap setting.
Forward Automatic BrakingF — In potential front-end imminent collision situations with detect-ed vehicles, the brakes may be applied, if you have not already done so, to help reduce dam-age or avoid collisions at very low speeds.
To set the Forward Collision Alert and Forward Automatic Braking systems to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Forward Collision System.
Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure WarningF — The system may help you avoid
collisions due to unintentional lane departures. The Lane Keep Assist Indicator is green on the instrument cluster 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
displaying 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 selected), on the side of the departure direction as the lane marking is crossed. The Lane Keep Assist system does not continuously steer the vehicle; the driver needs to steer and be in complete control of the vehicle.
Press the Lane Keep Assist button (A) to turn the system on or off.
Front Pedestrian BrakingF — 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 rapidly, a red alert flashes on the windshield and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or rapid beeps sound (if select-ed). The system may prepare the brakes or automatically brake the vehicle, if you have not already done so.
To set the system to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Front Pedestrian Detection.

DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
CAPLESS FUEL FILL

Traction Control and StabiliTrak Systems — The traction control system limits wheelspin and the StabiliTrak® stability control system assists with direc-tional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions. Both systems turn on automatically every time the vehicle is
started. Turn off traction control if the vehicle is stuck and rocking the vehicle is required.
Press the Traction Control/StabiliTrak Off button (B) to turn traction control on or off.
Rear Vision Camera — When the vehicle is in Reverse, a view of the area behind the vehicle displays on the infotainment 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 Park AssistF — During low-speed parking maneuvers, the system provides “distance to closest object” information on the Driver Information Center and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or a beep sounds (if selected). When an object is very close, the Safety Alert Seat pulses or 5 beeps sound (if selected).
Rear Cross Traffic AlertF — When the vehicle is in Reverse, the system warns of cross-traffic
coming in either direction by displaying a red alert on the infotainment screen and the left or right side of the Safety Alert Seat pulses or beeps sound (if selected).
Press the Park Assist button (C) to turn the Park Assist and Rear Cross Traffic Alert systems on or off.
Automatic Parking AssistF — Automatic Parking Assist steers the vehicle to help you park in parallel or perpendicular spaces while you follow commands and control the gear
selection, acceleration and braking.
1. Press the Automatic Parking Assist button (D) on the center of the instrument panel. A beep sounds and a parking assist display is shown on the Driver Information Center (DIC). The system will begin searching for a large enough parking space.
2. Once a space is found, shift the vehicle into Reverse or Drive as directed, follow the commands on the DIC and apply the accelerator or brake as needed. The steering wheel will briefly vibrate as a reminder to remove your hands. Parking Complete will be displayed and a beep will sound when the parking maneuver is complete.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner’s Manual.
To open the fuel door, press and release the center of the rear edge of the door. It will pop out slightly. Pull the door to open.
The capless fuel system does not have a fuel fill cap. Fully insert the fuel pump nozzle before starting to fill the tank. If the tank must be filled using a portable container, first insert the capless funnel adapter, located under the trunk floor, into the fuel system.
