Park Assist
The vehicle may be equipped with
Rear Park Assist (RPA) or Front and
Rear Park Assist (FRPA). Under
certain conditions, the Park Assist
system can assist the driver during
backing and parking maneuvers when
the vehicle is driven at no more than 9 km/h (6 mph). An illuminated
indicator in the Park Assist button
indicates the system is ready.
Sensors located in the bumpers
measure the distance between the
vehicle and objects using sonar
technology. These sensors are
designed to detect certain objects up
to 1.8 m (6 ft) behind and 1.3 m (4 ft)
in front of your vehicle that are taller
than 25 cm (10 in).
Different environmental conditions
may affect whether and how far the
Park Assist system can detect objects.
Keep the sensors clean of mud, dirt,
snow, ice, and slush; and clean
sensors after a car wash in freezing
temperatures. Sensors that are not
clean may not detect objects or may
cause the system to alert when not
required.{Warning
The Park Assist System is no
substitute for careful and attentive
driving. The Park Assist system
does not detect children,
pedestrians, bicyclists, animals,
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
or objects located below the
bumper or that are too close or too
far from the vehicle. It is not
available at speeds greater than
9 km/h (6 mph). To prevent injury,
death, or vehicle damage, even with
Park Assist, always check the area
around the vehicle and check all
mirrors before moving forward or
backing.
How the System Works
The vehicle may have a Park
Assist amphitheatre-like display on
the cluster with bars that represent
the estimated location of a detected
object and the vehicle’s distance from
the object. As a detected object
becomes closer, more bars light up
and change color from yellow to
amber to red. Vehicles equipped with
RPA will show the amphitheater at
the rear of the vehicle, and if
equipped, FRPA will show
the amphitheater at the front and rear.

Rear Pedestrian Alert can be set to Off
or Alert. See“Rear Pedestrian
Detection ”in “Collision/Detection
Systems” underVehicle Personalization
0 140. If equipped, alerts can be set to
beeps or seat pulses. See “Alert Type”
in “Collision/Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0140.
Rear Cross Traffic Alert
(RCTA) System
If equipped, Rear Cross Traffic Alert
(RCTA) displays a red warning triangle
with a left or right pointing arrow on
the infotainment display to warn of
traffic coming from the left or right.
This system detects objects coming
from up to 20 m (65 ft) from the left
or right side of the vehicle. When an
object is detected, either three beeps
sound from the left or right or three
Safety Alert Seat pulses occur on the
left or right side, depending on the
direction of the detected vehicle.
Driving With a Trailer
Use caution while backing up when
towing a trailer. The RCTA feature is
automatically disabled when a trailer
is attached to the vehicle. Turning the Features On or Off
RCTA can be turned on or off using
the infotainment system. See
“Collision/Detection Systems”
under
Vehicle Personalization 0140.
Assistance Systems for
Driving
If equipped, when driving the vehicle
in a forward gear, Forward Collision
Alert (FCA), Front Pedestrian Braking
(FPB), Lane Keep Assist (LKA), Side
Blind Zone Alert (SBZA), Night Vision
System, Lane Change Alert (LCA),
and/or Automatic Emergency Braking
(AEB) can help to avoid a crash or
reduce crash damage.
Forward Collision Alert
(FCA) System
The FCA system may help to avoid or
reduce the harm caused by front-end
crashes. When approaching a vehicle
ahead too quickly, FCA provides a red
flashing alert on the windshield and
rapidly beeps or pulses the driver seat.
FCA also lights an amber visual alert
if following another vehicle much too
closely. FCA detects vehicles within a distance
of approximately 60 m (197 ft) and
operates at speeds above 8 km/h
(5 mph). If the vehicle has Adaptive
Cruise Control (ACC), it can detect
vehicles to distances of approximately
110 m (360 ft) and operates at all
speeds. See
Adaptive Cruise Control
(Advanced) 0275.
{Warning
FCA is a warning system and does
not apply the brakes. When
approaching a slower-moving or
stopped vehicle ahead too rapidly,
or when following a vehicle too
closely, FCA may not provide a
warning with enough time to help
avoid a crash. It also may not
provide any warning at all. FCA
does not warn of pedestrians,
animals, signs, guardrails, bridges,
construction barrels, or other
objects. Be ready to take action and
apply the brakes. See Defensive
Driving 0232.

326 DRIVING AND OPERATING
Adjust the instrument panel
brightness to make the image no
brighter than necessary. Turn the
image off by selecting another view
on the instrument cluster. The night
vision image brightness and contrast
can be adjusted individually using the
touchscreen to the left of the
instrument cluster.
Warm objects, such as pedestrians,
animals, and other moving vehicles,
should appear whiter on the Night
Vision display. Cold objects, such as
the sky, signs, and parked vehicles,
should appear darker. Night Vision
only shows objects that are warmer or
colder than the surroundings. It does
not detect brake lamps, turn signals,
emergency flashers, traffic lights,
or sign information.
Use this system as an aid by
occasionally glancing at the image. Do
not stare at the image or use the
image under well-lit conditions.{Warning
Do not stare at the image while
driving as this might cause
important objects ahead not to be
seen. You could crash, and you or
others could be injured.
When a pedestrian or large animal is
detected, a yellow box will be drawn
around it. With the vehicle moving
when the pedestrian or animal may be
in the vehicle path, an amber box
displays around the pedestrian or
animal on the Night Vision display
and an amber pedestrian icon,
~,
or animal icon,
!, displays on the
instrument cluster. This pedestrian
icon is also shown on the Head-Up
Display (HUD). When the system
detects the vehicle is approaching a
pedestrian or large animal too quickly,
the amber pedestrian icon or animal
icon and amber box turns red, and a
red flashing icon,
~or!, displays on
the HUD with rapid beeping or
pulsing of the Safety Alert Seat,
if equipped. System pedestrian icons, beeps, and
(if equipped) Safety Alert Seat pulses
can be set to Off through vehicle
personalization by turning off the
Front Pedestrian Braking system. See
“Front Pedestrian Detection
”in
“Collision/Detection Systems” under
Vehicle Personalization 0140.
{Warning
The Night Vision system does not
automatically brake the vehicle.
It does not provide alerts unless it
detects a pedestrian or large
animal. The system may not detect
pedestrians, including children,
or animals:
.If they are less than 25 m
(82 ft) away.
.If they are not directly ahead in
the sensor coverage area, fully
visible, standing upright, or part
of a group.
.If the person or animal is moving
too quickly through the field of
view, such as a bicyclist.

Night Vision Detection Unavailable
and icon
\is displayed when the
Night Vision system is unable to
detect pedestrians or animals. It may
be caused by high ambient
temperatures or other conditions. The
message can be dismissed and the
system does not need service. In rain, snow, or fog the image may
not be clear and the direction of the
road ahead may not be seen. In more
severe weather conditions, the image
may be unclear and unusable. The
system does not need service.
Keep the night vision camera clean by
activating the front windshield washer
five times when it is dark enough for
the system to operate. If the Night
Vision image still looks blurry, use a
soft wet cloth to gently clean the
sensor camera lens and dry
thoroughly. The night vision camera is
behind the lower front grille below the
driver side headlamp.
The camera must also be aligned to
work correctly. If the camera needs
adjustment, see your dealer. Do not
attempt to adjust the camera yourself.Side Blind Zone
Alert (SBZA)
If equipped, the SBZA system is a
lane-changing aid that assists drivers
with avoiding crashes that occur with
moving vehicles in the side blind
zone, or blind spot areas. When the
vehicle is in a forward gear, the left orright side mirror display will light up
if a moving vehicle is detected in that
blind zone. If the turn signal is
activated and a vehicle is also
detected on the same side, the display
will flash as an extra warning not to
change lanes. Since this system is part
of the Lane Change Alert (LCA)
system, read the entire LCA section
before using this feature.
Lane Change Alert (LCA)
If equipped, the Lane Change Alert
(LCA) system is a lane-changing aid
that can assist drivers with avoiding
lane change crashes with moving
vehicles in the side blind zone,
or blind spot areas or with vehicles
rapidly approaching these areas from
behind. When a vehicle is detected in
the blind zone, the LCA warning
display will light up in the
corresponding side mirror and will
flash if the turn signal is on. The Side
Blind Zone Alert (SBZA) system is
included as part of the LCA system.

328 DRIVING AND OPERATING
{Warning
LCA does not alert the driver to
vehicles outside of the system
detection zones, pedestrians,
bicyclists, or animals. It may not
provide alerts when changing lanes
under all driving conditions. Failure
to use proper care when changing
lanes may result in injury, death,
or vehicle damage. Before making a
lane change, always check mirrors,
glance over your shoulder, and use
the turn signals.
LCA Detection Zones
1. SBZA Detection Zone
2. LCA Detection Zone
When towing a trailer, LCA feature is
disabled. When not towing a trailer,
the LCA sensor covers a zone of
approximately one lane over from
both sides of the vehicle, or 3.5 m
(11 ft). The height of the zone is
approximately between 0.5 m (1.5 ft)
and 2 m (6 ft) off the ground. Drivers
are also warned of vehicles rapidly
approaching this area up to
approximately 70 m (230 ft) behind
the vehicle.
Extended Side Blind Zone Area
(ESBZA)
If equipped, the ESBZA system is a
lane-changing aid that assists drivers
with avoiding crashes that occur with
moving vehicles in the side blind
zone, or blind spot areas. The
extended side blind zone area adds
the blind zone area along the side of a
trailer that the host vehicle is pulling.
When the vehicle is in a forward gear,
the left or right side mirror display
will light up if a moving vehicle is
detected in that extended blind zone. If the turn signal is activated and a
vehicle is also detected on the same
side, the display will flash as an extra
warning not to change lanes. Since
this system is part of the Lane Change
Alert system, read the entire Lane
Change Alert section before using this
feature.
{Warning
ESBZA does not alert the driver to
vehicles outside of the system
detection zones, pedestrians,
bicyclists, or animals. It may not
provide alerts when changing lanes
under all driving conditions. Failure
to use proper care when changing
lanes may result in injury, death,
or vehicle damage. Before making a
lane change, always check mirrors,
glance over your shoulder, and use
the turn signals.
