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 may pulse on the left side, right side, or
simultaneously, to alert the driver of the direction of potential hazard\
s.
Audible alerts or seat pulsing alerts may be selected. To change the ale\
rt settings, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Alert Type.
TRACTION CONTROL AND STABILITRAK® – The full-time Traction Control system limits wheelspin and the StabiliTrak electronic stability control system assist\
s with directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions. Both systems t\
urn on automatically every time the vehicle is started. Traction Control should be turned off\
if the vehicle is stuck and rocking the vehicle is required.
To turn Traction Control off or on, use the DIC controls to display the \
Vehicle menu > TCS (base DIC) or Options menu > Traction & Stability (midlevel and u\
plevel DICF).
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 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.
To turn on or off, press the Lane Keep Assist button (A) on the steering wheel.
FORWARD COLLISION ALERTF – The Vehicle Ahead Indicator is green when a vehicle is detected and illuminates in amber when
following a vehicle ahead much too closely. When approaching a vehicle directly ahea\
d too rapidly, a red alert flashes on the windshield and the Safety Aler\
t Seat pulses or rapid beeps sound (if selected).
Press the Collision Alert button (B) on the steering wheel to set the alert timing to Far, Medium or Near. The setting is displayed on the Driver Informati\
on Center.
FOLLOWING DISTANCE INDICATORF – The following distance is indicated in seconds under the Info menu on the Driver Information Center. If no vehicle is d\
etected ahead, dashes are displayed.

The vehicle can operate in two-wheel drive (2WD) or all-wheel drive (AWD).
In 2WD, power is sent to the front wheels only and the vehicle may have better fuel economy. In AWD, power is sent to all four wheels for better traction.
Press the AWD button in front of the shift lever to switch to AWD. The button indicator will flash when engaging AWD and stay illu-minated when AWD is active. Press the button again to return to 2WD.
