WHAT IS ACTIVE DRIVE
ASSIST
Active drive assist keeps your vehicle
centered in the lane and offers a
hands-free driving mode in certain
situations when using adaptive cruise
control.
HOW DOES ACTIVE DRIVE
ASSIST WORK
Active drive assist uses cameras to monitor
your vehicle position within a lane and
applies steering support to keep your
vehicle centered in the lane.
Using the cameras and location
information, active drive assist allows you
to remove your hands from the steering
wheel and offers a hands-free driving
mode in certain areas.
When active, active drive assist uses a
driver facing camera and infrared lighting
to monitor your eyes and head position to
detect if you are distracted. If the system
determines you are distracted, it alerts you
to return your eyes back to the road.
Camera and lighting areas.
A Note:
When active drive assist is active, in
certain crash or near crash-like situations,
such as an air bag deployment or hitting a
road obstacle, camera data may be
recorded through the vehicle event data
recorder. See Event Data (page 22).
Note: No data is recorded under normal
driving conditions.

and detects no steering activity for a
certain period of time, the system alerts
you with a message in the instrument

period of time, the system alerts you to
return your eyes to the road. Depending on
where you are looking, the alert can be a
message in the instrument cluster and an
audible warning.
If you do not react to the warnings, active
drive assist cancels, quickly activates and
releases the brakes, and slows your vehicle
down to low speeds while maintaining
steering control.
If your vehicle slows down and you resume
control, a message appears to prompt you
to press the accelerator pedal to allow the

WHAT IS THE LANE KEEPING
SYSTEM
The lane keeping system alerts you by
providing temporary steering assistance
or steering wheel vibration when it detects
an unintended lane departure.
HOW DOES THE LANE
KEEPING SYSTEM WORK
The lane keeping system uses a forward
looking camera mounted on the windshield
to monitor vehicle movement within the
travel lane.
When the camera detects a drift out of the
travel lane, the lane keeping system alerts
the driver by vibrating the steering wheel,
or aids the driver by providing a small
steering input to move the vehicle back
into the travel lane.
The driver can select one of three modes:
•
Alert (If Equipped)
• Aid
• Alert + Aid
