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.
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, 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 too quickly, the
amber pedestrian icon and box
turns red, and a red flashing
icon,
~, 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 settings
by turning off the Front
Pedestrian Braking system. To
view available settings from
the infotainment screen, touch
Settings > Vehicle > Collision/
Detection Systems > Front
Pedestrian Detection.
{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.

Lane Change
Alert (LCA)
If equipped, the LCA system is
a lane-changing aid that
assists drivers with avoiding
lane change crashes that
occur with moving vehicles in
the side blind zone (or spot)
areas or with vehicles rapidly
approaching these areas from
behind. The LCA warning
display will light up in the
corresponding outside mirror
and will flash if the turn signal
is on.
{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(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
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
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. The Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA)
warning area starts at
approximately the middle of
the vehicle and goes back 5 m
(16 ft). Drivers are also warned
of vehicles rapidly
approaching this area up to
approximately 70 m (230 ft)
behind the vehicle.
How the System Works
The LCA symbol lights up in
the side mirrors when the
system detects a moving
vehicle in the next lane over
that is in the side blind zone or
rapidly approaching from
behind. This indicates it may
be unsafe to change lanes.
Before making a lane change,
check the LCA display, check
mirrors, glance over your
shoulder, and use the turn
signals.

vehicles can be damaged.
Only use a vehicle that has a
12-volt system with a
negative ground for jump
starting.
2. Position the two vehicles so that they are not
touching.
3. Set the parking brake firmly and put the
transmission in P (Park).
See Shifting Into Park

Using a match near a
battery can cause battery
gas to explode. People have
been hurt doing this, and
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
some have been blinded.
Use a flashlight if you need
more light.
Battery fluid contains acid
that can burn you. Do not
get it on you. If you
accidentally get it in your
eyes or on your skin, flush
the place with water and get
medical help immediately.
