Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA)†6
BCA uses rear corner radar sensors in the rear bumper to monitor and warn the driver in certain situations if it detects an approaching vehicle in the driver ’s blind spot area and before changing lanes . Initially, BCA provides
Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW) when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle, emitting an audible warning and visual alert on the outside rearview mirrors . If the system detects that the collision risk has increased, Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA) automatically applies the opposite side front brake to try and mitigate a potential collision .
•
1st-stage: When another vehicle is detected within BCW warning boundary A, an indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors B .
•
2nd-stage: When 1st stage warning is on and the driver activates a turn
signal, a flashing indicator will illuminate on the outside rearview mirrors and the system will sound a warning .
• 3 r d - s t a g e : When 1st stage warning is on and the 2nd stage warning has already occurred, and the collision risk has increased, braking is applied to the opposite side front wheel and a visual warning occurs .
BCA User Settings:
To turn BCA on, go to the User Settings menu in the Instrument Cluster, press the Mode button C on the Steering Wheel when the vehicle is at a standstill, gear shift in Park and with the ignition switch or the Engine Start/Stop button* in the ON position, and select User Settings . Press the Move (OK) button D up/down and select Driver Assistance, Blind-Spot Safety and then press the OK button D .
Some models access settings through the Vehicle Settings in the audio head unit . Press the Setup hard key on the audio head unit, then Vehicle on the screen to enter Vehicle Settings
To set BCA when in Blind-Spot Safety, select:
•Active Assist: BCA will provide a warning (audible & visual) and may activate Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and temporarily apply braking power
•Warning Only: Vehicle will provide a warning only (audible & visual)
•Off: System is off, no warnings provided
To set the initial warning activation time, go to User Settings , then Driver Assistance, Warning Time and press the OK button D . Adjust the warning timing:
•
Early/Normal: Maximizes the amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial warning occurs
• L a t e : Reduces the amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial warning occurs

Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA) is designed to warn the driver under certain conditions . It may activate the Electronic Stability Control (ESC) and temporarily apply braking if it detects cross traffic
approaching the vehicle when the vehicle is in reverse .
When the RCCA rear-corner radar sensors detect approaching vehicles from the rear left or rear right side of the vehicle A, RCCA will sound a warning, the warning indicators on the outside rearview mirror will illuminate and a message will appear on the Instrument Cluster LCD B and the audio head unit .* If RCCA detects that the collision risk has increased, RCCA automatically applies the brakes to reduce your speed, potentially helping to minimize the effects of a possible collision .
RCCA is designed to operate under the following conditions:
•When the gear shift is in Reverse
•When the vehicle is moving slower than 6 mph
RCCA User Settings:
•To go to the User Settings menu in the Instrument Cluster, press the Mode button C on the Steering Wheel when the vehicle is at a standstill, gear shift in Park and with the ignition on or the Engine Start/Stop button* in the ON position, and select User Settings
•
To turn RCCA on when in User Settings , press the Move (OK) button D up/down, select Driver Assistance, Parking Safety, Rear Cross-Traffic Safety and then press OK D
•
To set the warning timing, go to User Settings , press the Move (OK) button D up/down, then go to Driver Assistance, Warning Timing and press the OK button D
•Select one of the settings:
–
Early/Normal/Standard: Maximizes the amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial warning occurs
– L a t e : Reduces the amount of distance between the vehicles before the initial warning occurs
•The default Warning Timing is set to Normal . If the Warning Timing is changed, the warning time of other Driver Assistance systems may also change
