Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist-Pedestrian (FCA-Ped)*†6 /
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)†6
The FCA-Ped is designed to help alert the driver and, under certain conditions, 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 system detects that the collision risk has increased, the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist-Pedestrian (FCA-Ped)
automatically applies the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially helping to reduce 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 faster than 5 mph • Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON
REMINDERS:
• The FCA-Ped/FCW will be activated by default when the ignition is cycled ON, even when previously set to OFF
• The FCA-Ped/FCW will not operate when the vehicle is traveling faster than approximately 50 mph
• If the FCA-Ped is operating and the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off, 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

QR CODESmart Cruise Control (SCC) with Stop & Go System*†6
The Smart Cruise Control (SCC) with Stop & Go System is designed to maintain a predetermined distance from vehicles detected
ahead by automatically adjusting the driving speed as needed . When traffic is detected, the vehicle will
slow down to maintain a set distance behind traffic without depressing the accelerator or brake pedal .
With the SCC on and activated, the vehicle-to-vehicle distance set, and the system detects a vehicle
slowing or stopping, the system can bring the vehicle to a complete stop . The system will hold the
vehicle until the accelerator pedal is pressed – when pressed and when the vehicle ahead starts to
move forward, the SCC re-engages .
To set/adjust the SCC speed:
•Press the CRUISE button A to turn system ON . The CRUISE indicator will illuminate on the
instrument cluster
•Accelerate/decelerate to the desired speed
•Press button B down to set the speed . The SET indicator light will illuminate . The set speed and
vehicle-to-vehicle distance will illuminate on the LCD screen . Press the RES+/SET- button B up/
down to increase/decrease the set speed
To adjust the vehicle-to-vehicle distance setting C, press the SCC button D on the steering wheel .
Images on the LCD screen E and Instrument Cluster F will change when scrolling through the settings .
To cancel SCC operation: Press the CANCEL button G or press the brake pedal . The LCD screen will display a message that the SCC operation is canceled .
To turn system OFF, press the CRUISE button A . The CRUISE indicator on the instrument cluster will turn OFF and the LCD screen SCC image will show canceled H

To change the Cruise Control mode from SCC to standard Cruise Control, press and hold button A . Repeat to switch modes again ( The SCC system must not be activated to change modes) .
For the SCC System to operate: •When no vehicle is in front, you must be traveling at a minimum speed of 20 mph •When following a vehicle, there is no minimum speed requirement
When following a vehicle, the system will automatically adjust your cruise speed based on the vehicle detected in front . It may even bring the vehicle to a complete stop if necessary .
QUICK TIPSREMINDERS: •Cruise Control button must be ON in order to turn SCC ON/OFF •
The SCC system is turned ON again when the ignition is cycled off, then on again . The speed setting will need to be reset when ignition is cycled •
When following a vehicle, the system will automatically adjust your cruise speed based on the vehicle detected in front •
If the SCC system is left on, it can be activated inadvertently . Keep the system off when not in use to avoid setting a speed that the driver is not aware of •
In standard Cruise Control, the driver needs to manually assess the distance from other vehicles as the system will not apply brakes to slow down automatically in order to turn SCC ON/OFF •
The SCC is also canceled when the driver’s door is opened, gear shift is changed out of D (Drive) and various other conditions . See Owner’s Manual for other conditions
