NOTE:
• For models equipped with the BSD (Blind Spot Detection) and RCTA (Rear Cross Traffic
Alert) driving support systems, when towing a trailer, it may be necessary to select
“BSD/RCTA” to deactivate the system. The system may not operate as expected due to
obstruction of the radar waves. For details about how to turn BSD/RCTA off, refer to
page 114 in this Getting Started Guide and/or “Starting and Operating” in your Owner’s
Manual.
• For models equipped with the RAB (Reverse Automatic Braking) driving support system,
when towing a trailer, it may be necessary to press the RAB button to deactivate the
system. The system may not operate as expected due to obstruction of the sonar
waves. For details about the RAB button, refer to page 115 in this Getting Started Guide
and/or “Starting and Operating” in your Owner’s Manual.
Please refer to “Driving Tips” in your Owner’s Manual for complete details, especially if
you plan to use this vehicle for regular towing.

STEERING RESPONSIVE HEADLIGHTS (SRH)
The Steering Responsive Headlights (SRH) system aims the headlight beams in the
direction you are steering, improving visibility at corners and intersections when driving at
night. You can turn the SRH system on or off in the Center Information Display through the
“Car Settings” icon.
REVERSE AUTOMATIC BRAKING (RAB)(if equipped)
This system uses four rear bumper mounted
sonar sensors to detect objects when moving
between 1 and 9 mph in reverse. RAB uses
the Rear-Vision Camera image to display
colored proximity alerts when an object is
detected. As an object becomes closer to the
rear of your vehicle, audible beeps provide
additional awareness in progressive levels.
If RAB determines that a collision with an
object is possible, the system can
automatically apply the brakes to help prevent
or minimize the impact.
Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB) OFF
In some cases, such as connecting a trailer, it may be helpful to temporarily turn the
system off. RAB can be turned off using the touchscreen buttons on the lower corners
when the select lever is in the “R” position.
Select and hold the “RAB ON” button in the lower part of the touchscreen
until it changes to “RAB OFF” to disable the automatic braking functions of
the RAB system.
Select and hold the “P))) ON” button in the lower part of the touchscreen until
it changes to “P))) OFF” to disable the audible beeping of the RAB system.
