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 SEAT – The driver’s seat pulses — left side, right side, or simultaneously — to alert the driver of the direction of potential hazards.
Audible alerts may be selected instead of Safety Alert Seat
pulsing alerts. To change the alert setting, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Alert Type.
FORWARD COLLISION ALERT – The Vehicle Ahead Indicator is green 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, Near or Off. This is also the Adaptive Cruise Control–Advanced♦ following gap setting.
To set the Forward Collision Alert and Automatic Emergency Braking systems to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems >Forward Collision System.
FOLLOWING DISTANCE INDICATOR – The following time to the vehicle ahead is indicated in seconds on the Driver Information Center. If no vehicle is detected ahead, dashes are displayed.
LANE CHANGE ALERT WITH SIDE BLIND ZONE ALERT – While driving, the system displays a warning symbol on the left or right side mirror when a vehicle is detected in that 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.
LANE KEEP ASSIST WITH LANE DEPARTURE WARNING – The system may help you avoid collisions due to unintentional lane departures. The Lane Keep Assist Indicator is green if the sys-tem is available to assist. If the vehicle approaches a detected lane marking without using a turn signal in that direction, it 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 the
system on or off, press the Lane Keep Assist
button on the right side of the infotainment screen. The button illuminates when the system is on.
ENHANCED AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING/REVERSE AUTOMATIC BRAKING – In potential front- and rear-end imminent collision situations with vehicles directly ahead or behind, and with some objects behind, your vehicle, the brakes may be applied, if you have not already done so, to help reduce the collision's severity or help avoid collisions at very low speeds.
To set Enhanced Automatic Emergency Braking and Forward Collision Alert to Alert and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection Systems > Forward Collision System.
To set Reverse Automatic Braking, Park Assist, and Rear Cross Traffic Alert on or off, press the Park Assist
button on the right side of the infotainment screen.
AUTOMATIC SEAT BELT TIGHTENING – While driving, the front seat belts automatically tighten during emergency braking or steer-ing maneuvers, and release when conditions return to normal.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner's Manual.

SURROUND VISION
FRONT AND REAR PARK ASSIST
The Surround Vision system displays a rear or front camera view along with a view of the area surrounding the vehicle on the infotain-ment screen when the vehicle is in Reverse or Drive below 8 mph.
REAR CROSS-TRAFFIC ALERT♦
When the vehicle is in Reverse, the Rear Cross-Traffic Alert system warns of cross-traffic approaching 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).
To turn the Surround Vision System guidance lines or Rear Park Assist symbols on or off, go to Settings > Rear Camera.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner's Manual.
During low-speed parking maneuvers, the system provides “dis-tance to closest object” information on the Driver Information Center and the Safety Alert Seat pulses or a beep sounds (if select-ed). When an object is very close, the Safety Alert Seat pulses or a continuous beep sounds (if selected).
To turn the system on or off, press the Park Assist button on the right side of the infotainment screen.
See Driving and Operating in your Owner's Manual.
AUTOMATIC PARKING ASSIST
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. The system is available when vehicle speed is below 18 mph.
1. Press the Automatic Parking Assist button on the right side of the infotainment screen. A beep sounds and a parking assist display is shown on the infotainment screen. The system will begin searching for a large enough parking space.
2. To switch between parallel and perpendicular parking, touch the Parking Type screen button during the search process.
3. The system searches for parking spaces to the right of the
vehicle. To search for a parking space to the left, touch the Select Side screen button.
4. Once a space is found, shift the vehicle into Reverse or Drive as directed, follow the commands on the infotainment screen 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.
