Driving and Operating 219
Warning (Continued)
Be ready to take action and apply the
brakes. For more information, see
Defensive Driving0151. Keep the
windshield, headlamps, and FPB sensor
clean and in good repair.
FPB can be set to Off, Alert, or Alert and
Brake through vehicle settings. To view
available settings for this feature, touch the
Settings icon on the infotainment home
page. Select “Vehicle”to display the list of
available options and select “Collision/
Detection Systems”.
Detecting the Pedestrian or Bicyclist
Ahead
FPB alerts and automatic braking will not
occur unless the FPB system detects a
pedestrian or bicyclist. When a nearby pedestrian or bicyclist is detected in front of
the vehicle, the pedestrian ahead indicator
will display amber.
Front Pedestrian Alert
With Head-Up Display
Without Head-Up Display
When the vehicle approaches a pedestrian
or bicyclist ahead too rapidly, the red FPB
alert display will flash on the windshield.
Eight rapid high-pitched beeps will sound
from the front, or both sides of the Safety
Alert Seat will pulse five times. When this
Pedestrian Alert occurs, the brake system
may prepare for driver braking to occur
more rapidly which can cause a brief, mild deceleration. Continue to apply the brake
pedal as needed. Cruise control may be
disengaged when the Front Pedestrian Alert
occurs.
Automatic Braking
If FPB detects it is about to crash into a
pedestrian or bicyclist directly ahead, and
the brakes have not been applied, FPB may
automatically brake moderately or brake
hard. This can help to avoid some very low
speed pedestrian and bicyclist crashes or
reduce pedestrian injury. FPB can
automatically brake to detected pedestrians
or bicyclists between 8 km/h (5 mph) and
80 km/h (50 mph). Automatic braking levels
may be reduced under certain conditions,
such as higher speeds.
FPB may slow the vehicle to a complete
stop to try and avoid a potential collision
with a pedestrian. If this happens, automatic
braking may hold the vehicle at a stop
momentarily. Firmly press the accelerator
pedal to release automatic braking.

228 Driving and Operating
Driving with a Trailer
Trailering is different than just driving the
vehicle by itself. Trailering affects handling,
acceleration, braking, durability, and fuel
economy. Successful, safe trailering takes
correct equipment, and it has to be used
properly.
The following information has many
time-tested, important trailering tips and
safety rules. Many of these are important
for your safety and that of your passengers.
Read this section carefully before towing a
trailer.
When towing a trailer:
.Become familiar with, and follow all state
and local laws that apply to trailer
towing. These requirements vary from
state to state.
.State laws may require the use of
extended side view mirrors. If your
visibility is limited or restricted while
towing, install extended side view mirrors
on your vehicle, even if not required.
.Do not tow a trailer during the first
800 km (500 mi) of vehicle use to prevent
damage to the engine, axle, or other
parts.
.Perform the first oil change before heavy
towing.
.Do not drive over 80 km/h (50 mph) and
do not make starts at full throttle during
the first 800 km (500 mi) of trailer
towing.
.Tow in D (Drive). Tow/Haul Mode is
recommended for heavier trailers. See
Tow/Haul Mode0178. If the transmission
downshifts too often, a lower gear may
be selected using Manual Mode. See
Manual Mode 0177.
The following advanced driver assistance
features should be turned off when towing
a trailer, and may turn off automatically
when a trailer is detected:
.Park Assist
.Reverse Automatic Braking (RAB)
.Rear Cross Traffic Alert (RCTA)
.Rear Cross Traffic Braking (RCTB)
.Lane Change Alert (LCA)
.Super Cruise and Adaptive Cruise Control
(ACC), unless equipped with trailering
functionality, see Adaptive Cruise Control
(Camera) 0196.
Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) and
Front Pedestrian Braking (FPB) should be set
to Alert unless equipped with Super Cruise. Do not use Automatic Parking Assist (APA)
while towing a trailer.
{Warning
To prevent serious injury or death from
carbon monoxide (CO), when towing a
trailer:
.Do not drive with the liftgate, trunk/
hatch, or rear-most window open.
.Fully open the air outlets on or under
the instrument panel.
.Adjust the climate control system to a
setting that brings in only outside air.
See
“Climate Control Systems” in the
Index.
For more information about carbon
monoxide, see Engine Exhaust 0174.
Towing a trailer requires experience. The
combination of the vehicle and trailer is
longer and not as responsive as the vehicle
itself. Get used to the handling and braking
of the combination by driving on a level
road surface before driving on public roads.
The trailer structure, the tires, and the
brakes must all be rated to carry the
intended cargo. Inadequate trailer
equipment can cause the combination to
