DRIVING AND OPERATING 251
.The headlamps are on, except
when parked.
Adjust the instrument panel
brightness to make the image no
brighter than necessary. Turn the
image off by selecting another view
on the instrument cluster.
Warm objects, such as pedestrians,
animals, and other moving vehicles,
should appear whiter on the Night
Vision display. Cold objects, such as
the sky, signs, and parked vehicles,
should appear darker. Night Vision
only shows objects that are warmer or
colder than the surroundings. It does
not detect brake lamps, turn signals,
emergency flashers, traffic lights,
or sign information.
Use this system as an aid by
occasionally glancing at the image. Do
not stare at the image or use the
image under well-lit conditions.{Warning
Do not stare at the image while
driving as this might cause
important objects ahead not to be
seen. You could crash, and you or
others could be injured.
When a pedestrian or large animal is
detected, an amber box displays
around the pedestrian or animal
on the Night Vision display and
an amber pedestrian icon,
~,
or animal icon,
!, displays on the
instrument cluster. This pedestrian
icon is also shown on the Head-Up
Display (HUD). When the system
detects the vehicle is approaching a
pedestrian much too quickly, the
amber pedestrian icon and box turns
red, and a red flashing icon,
~,
displays on the HUD with rapid
beeping or pulsing of the Safety Alert
Seat, if equipped.
System pedestrian icons, beeps, and
(if equipped) Safety Alert Seat pulses
can be set to Off through vehicle personalization by turning off the
Front Pedestrian Braking system. See
“Front Pedestrian Detection
”in
“Collision/Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0140.
{Warning
The Night Vision system does not
automatically brake the vehicle.
It does not provide alerts unless it
detects a pedestrian or large
animal. The system may not detect
pedestrians, including children,
or animals:
. If they are less than 25 m
(82 ft) away.
. If they are not directly ahead
in the sensor coverage area,
fully visible, standing upright,
or part of a group.
. If the pedestrian or animal is
moving too quickly through
the field of view, such as a
bicyclist.

Warning (Continued)
lanes may result in injury, death,
or vehicle damage. Before making a
lane change, always check mirrors,
glance over your shoulder, and use
the turn signals.
LCA Detection Zones
1. SBZA Detection Zone
2. LCA Detection Zone
The LCA sensor covers a zone of
approximately one lane over from
both sides of the vehicle, or 3.5 m
(11 ft). The height of the zone is
approximately between 0.5 m (1.5 ft)
and 2 m (6 ft) off the ground. The Side
Blind Zone Alert (SBZA) warning area starts at approximately the middle of
the vehicle and goes back 5 m (16 ft).
Drivers are also warned of vehicles
rapidly approaching from up to 70 m
(230 ft) behind the vehicle.
How the System Works
The LCA symbol lights up in the
outside mirrors when the system
detects a moving vehicle in the next
lane over that is in the side blind zone
or rapidly approaching that zone from
behind. A lit LCA symbol indicates it
may be unsafe to change lanes. Before
making a lane change, check the LCA
display, check mirrors, glance over
your shoulder, and use the turn
signals.
Left Outside Mirror
DisplayRight Outside
Mirror Display
When the vehicle is started, both
outside mirror LCA displays will
briefly come on to indicate the system is operating. When the vehicle is in a
forward gear, the left or right outside
mirror display will light up if a moving
vehicle is detected in the next lane
over in that blind zone or rapidly
approaching that zone. If the turn
signal is activated in the same
direction as a detected vehicle, this
display will flash as an extra warning
not to change lanes.
LCA can be disabled. When you
disable LCA, Side Blind Zone Alert is
also disabled. See
“Collision/Detection
Systems” underVehicle Personalization
0 140. If LCA is disabled by the driver,
the LCA mirror displays will not
light up.
When the System Does Not
Seem to Work Properly
The LCA system requires some driving
for the system to calibrate to
maximum performance. This
calibration may occur more quickly if
the vehicle is driving on a straight
highway road with traffic and roadside
objects (e.g., guardrails, barriers).

VEHICLE CARE 345
The jump start negative terminal (3)
and positive terminal (4) are on the
battery of the vehicle providing the
jump start.
The positive jump start connection for
the discharged battery is under a red
cover. Remove the cover to expose the
terminal.1. Check the other vehicle. It must have a 12-volt battery with a
negative ground system.
Caution
If the other vehicle does not have a
12-volt system with a negative
ground, both vehicles can be
damaged. Only use a vehicle that
has a 12-volt system with a
negative ground for jump starting.
2. Position the two vehicles so that they are not touching.
3. Set the parking brake and shift to P (Park). See Shifting Into Park
0 188.
Caution
If any accessories are left on or
plugged in during the jump starting
procedure, they could be damaged.
The repairs would not be covered
by the vehicle warranty. Whenever
possible, turn off or unplug all
accessories on either vehicle when
jump starting.
4. Turn the ignition off. Turn off all lights and accessories in both
vehicles, except the hazard
warning flashers if needed.
{Warning
An electric fan can start up even
when the engine is not running and
can injure you. Keep hands,
clothing, and tools away from any
underhood electric fan.
{Warning
Using a match near a battery can
cause battery gas to explode. People
have been hurt doing this, and
some have been blinded. Use a
flashlight if you need more light.
Battery fluid contains acid that can
burn you. Do not get it on you.
If you accidentally get it in your
eyes or on your skin, flush the place
with water and get medical help
immediately.
{Warning
Fans or other moving engine parts
can injure you badly. Keep your
hands away from moving parts
once the engine is running.
5. Connect one end of the red positive (+) cable to the remote
positive (+) terminal on the
discharged battery.
