Features of your vehicle
If an indicator stays on and does not
flash or if it flashes abnormally, one of
the turn signal bulbs may be burned
out and will require replacement.
✽ ✽NOTICE
If an indicator flash is abnormally
quick or slow, a bulb may be burned
out or have a poor electrical connec-
tion in the circuit.
Front fog light (if equipped)
Fog lights are used to provide
improved visibility when visibility is
poor due to fog, rain or snow, etc. The
fog lights will turn on when the fog light
switch (1) is turned to the on position
after the headlights are turned on.
To turn off the fog lights, turn the
switch (1) to the off position.
When in operation, the fog lights
consume large amounts of vehicle
electrical power. Only use the fog
lights when visibility is poor.

The FCA system is designed to
detect and monitor the vehicle ahead
or detect a pedestrian in the roadway
through radar signals and camera
recognition to warn the driver that a
collision is imminent, and if neces-
sary, apply emergency braking.System setting and activation
System setting
When the ignition switch is turned
on, Forward Collision-Avoidance
Assist (FCA) automatically gets acti-
vated. The system can be deactivat-
ed if the driver cancels the system
from the instrument panel as follows
: 'User settings → Driving assist →
Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist'
FORWARD COLLISION-AVOIDANCE ASSIST (FCA) (CAMERA + RADAR TYPE)
(IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using the Forward
Collision-Avoidance Assist
(FCA) system:
This system is only a supple-
mental system, and it is not
intended to, nor does it,
replace the need for the dri-
ver's extreme care and atten-
tion. The sensing range and
objects detectable by the sen-
sors are limited. Pay attention
to road conditions at all times.
NEVER drive too fast for the road conditions or whilst cor-
nering.
Always drive cautiously to help prevent unexpected and
sudden situations from occur-
ring. FCA does not guarantee
to stop the vehicle completely
and does not guarantee to
avoid all collisions.

Driving your vehicle
The Blind-Spot Collision Warning
(BCW) system uses radar sensors in
the rear bumper to monitor and warn
the driver of an approaching vehicle
in the driver's blind spot area.
The system monitors the rear area of
the vehicle and provides information
to the driver with an audible alert and
an indicator on the outside rearview
mirrors.(1) Blind spot area
The BCW range varies relative tovehicle speed. Note that if your
vehicle is traveling much faster
than the vehicles around you, the
warning will not occur. (2) Closing at high speed
The BCW-Closing at high speedfeature will alert you when a vehi-
cle is approaching in an adjacent
lane at a high rate of speed. If the
driver activates the turn signal
when the system detects an
oncoming vehicle, the system
sounds an audible alert. Distance
from an approaching vehicle can
be seen differently according to
the relative speed.
(3) RCCW (Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Warning)
The RCCW feature monitors approaching cross traffic from the
left and right side of the vehicle
when your vehicle is in reverse.
The feature will operate when the
vehicle is moving in reverse
below about 10 km/h (6 mph). If
oncoming cross traffic is detect-
ed, a warning chime will sound.
Distance from an approaching
vehicle can be seen differently
according to the relative speed.
BLIND-SPOT COLLISION WARNING (BCW) (IF EQUIPPED)
WARNING
Always be aware of road con- ditions while driving and be
alert for unexpected situa-
tions even though the BCW
system is operating.
The BCW is not a substitute for proper and safe driving.
Always drive safely and use
caution when changing lanes
or backing up the vehicle. The
BCW may not detect every
object alongside the vehicle.

Second stage alert
A warning chime to alert the driver
will activate when:
1. A vehicle has been detected in the
blind spot area by the radar system
(the warning light will illuminate on
the outside rearview mirror, i.e., in
the first stage alert)
AND
2. The turn signal is applied (same side as where the vehicle is being
detected).
When this alert is activated, the
warning light on the outside rearview
mirror will also blink. If you turn off the turn signal indica-
tor, the second stage alert (the warn-
ing chime and the blinking warning
light on the outside rearview mirror)
will be deactivated.
