(HAS) — IF EQUIPPED
The Highway Assist System (HAS) is a driving
assistance system that is only available when
driving on highways. The system operates up
to speeds of 90 mph (145 km/h) when hori -
zontal signs are detected.
The system uses information from the front
camera and radar to help keep the vehicle in
the center of the lane and at a constant speed.
The HAS system combines Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC) functions with lane centering
logic to control the trajectory of the vehicle.
The HAS system requires the driver’s hands to
remain on the steering wheel.
Once HAS is activated, a dedicated screen will
appear on the instrument cluster display.

TRAFFIC JAM ASSIST (TJA)
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Traffic Jam Assist (TJA) system can be acti -
vated on all road types. The system uses a
camera to detect lane markings and keep the
vehicle in the center of the lane.
When the system is unable to detect lane
markings, it will still operate using surrounding
traffic. This can occur in congested traffic
scenarios, when the vehicles ahead or
surrounding obstruct the visibility of the lane
markings. When the speed is below 12 mph
(20 km/h), the system can use a lock-on
strategy that allows the vehicle to automati -
cally follow the vehicle ahead. The TJA system combines Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC) functions with Lane Departure
Warning functions to maintain vehicle speed
and steering wheel behavior.

NOTE:

Do not use the TJA system while driving in
urban areas.
To Activate/Deactivate
To activate the system, push the button on the
left side of the steering wheel.
To deactivate the system, push the button
again.
