aerodynamics. Below are tips on how to help improve
fuel economy:
§ Keep your vehicle in good condition with regular maintenance
§ Don’t let the engine idle longer than necessary
§ Drive at a moderate speed, accelerating smoothly
§ Keep tires inflated to the recommended pressure
§ Travel lightly, without carrying unnecessary weight in
your vehicle
§ Avoid placing large or heavy items on roof racks
§ Avoid hilly, winding or poorly maintained roads
Driver Attention Warning (DAW)†6

faster than Normal mode.
If the DAW System is activated, the DAW information will appear
on the LCD Display B when you select the ASSIST mode .

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist-Pedestrian (FCA-Ped)*†9 /
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)*†9
The FCA-Ped is designed to help alert the driver, and under
certain conditions if necessary, apply emergency braking,
when rapidly approaching a vehicle that is slowing down,
braking or stopped. Initially, the FCA-Ped provides Forward
Collision Warning (FCW ) when it detects a potential collision
with a vehicle in front emitting an audible warning and visual
alert on the instrument cluster A. Adjust the alert settings
(Early, Normal, Late) in the User Settings. To turn the FCA-
Ped/FCW off, go to User Settings again and turn off.
If the collision risk increases, the Forward Collision-
Avoidance Assist-Pedestrian (FCA-Ped) automatically applies
the brakes to reduce your speed, helping to minimize the
effects of a possible collision. FCA-Ped can be turned ON in
the User Settings menu on the Instrument Cluster display.
The FCA-Ped/FCW will become active when the:
§ Engine Start /Stop button is ON
§ Vehicle is traveling more than 5 mph
§ Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON.
LED Warning Messages:
REMINDERS:
§ The FCA-Ped/FCW will be activated by default when the ignition is cycled ON, even when previous setting was OFF
§ The FCA-Ped/FCW will not operate when the vehicle is traveling more than approximately 45/50 mph, respectively
§ If the FCA-Ped is operating and the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off B, the FCA-Ped system is automatically turned off.
§ When FCA-Ped system is off, the FCA-Ped warning indicator is on in the Instrument Cluster .
The Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist-Pedestrian (FCA-Ped) / Forward Collision Warning (FCW) are not substitutes for safe and proper driving. Always drive safely and use Caution.
FCA-Ped and FCW may not always alert the driver when the vehicle is approaching another vehicle.
