TRAFFIC JAM ASSIST (TJA)
SYSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The Traffic Jam Assist (TJA) system can be
activated 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 automatically 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.

AUXILIARY DRIVING
SYSTEMS
The following auxiliary driving systems are
available in this vehicle:
Forward Collision Warning (FCW)
Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS)
Driver Attention Assist (DAA)
The vehicle may also be fitted with the following
driving assistance systems:
Blind Spot Monitoring (BSM)
Active Blind Spot Assist (ABSA)
Lane Departure Warning (LDW)
Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
Highway Assist System (HAS)
Traffic Jam Assist (TJA)
Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC)
Intelligent Speed Control (ISC)
Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR)
For the operation of the LDW, LKA, HAS, TJA, ACC,
ISC, or TSR systems, see

Ú
page 81.

NOTE:
When driving on two-way roads where there is no
lane dividing center line (e.g. on unpaved roads),
the use of the Active Blind Spot Assist (ABSA), HAS, TJA, and LKA systems is strongly discour
-
aged as the system could detect the entire road
as single-lane dividing lines.

NOTE:
The driving assistance systems are designed to
aid in driving the car. The driver must always
maintain a sufficient level of attention to the
traffic and road conditions and control the trajec -
tory of the car.
BLIND SPOT MONITORING (BSM)
S
YSTEM — IF EQUIPPED
The BSM system uses two radar sensors, located
in the rear fascia/bumper (one on each side), to
detect the presence of other vehicles in the rear
side blind spots of your vehicle.
Rear Sensor Location
The system warns the driver about the presence
of other vehicles in the detection area by illumi -
nating the BSM Warning Light located within the
door mirror on the side in which the other vehicle
was detected. If equipped, an audible chime will
also be heard to alert the driver (if option is
selected within the radio system). BSM Indicator Light
When the engine is started, the warning light
illuminates briefly to signal the driver that the
system is active.
Sensors
The sensors are activated when any forward gear
is engaged at a speed higher than approximately
6 mph (10 km/h). The sensors are temporarily deactivated when
the vehicle is stationary or the vehicle is in PARK.
The detection area of the system covers approxi -
mately one lane on both sides of the vehicle.
This area begins from the door mirror and
extends for approximately 19 ft (6 m) towards the
rear part of the vehicle.
When the sensors are active, the system
monitors the detection areas on both sides of the
vehicle and warns the driver about the possible
presence of vehicles in these areas.
