DRIVER ASSISTANCE SYSTEMS
Safety Alert Seat
F
The driver’s seat pulses — left side, right side or simultaneously — to alert the driver of potential
hazards.
Audible alerts or seat pulsing alerts may be selected. To change the alert settings, go to
Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection > Alert Type.
Lane Change Alert with Side Blind Zone Alert
F
While driving, the system displays a warning symbol on the left or right side mirror when
a vehicle is detected in that side blind zone area or rapidly approaching that area. The warning
symbol flashes if a turn signal is activated when a vehicle has been detected on the same side.
To turn on or off, go to Settings > Vehicle > Collision/Detection > Lane Change Alert.
Forward Collision Alert
F
The Vehicle Ahead indicator is green
when a vehicle is detected and is amber when
following a vehicle ahead too closely. When
approaching a vehicle directly ahead too rap-
idly, a red alert flashes on the windshield and
the Safety Alert Seat pulses or beeps sound
(ifselected).
Press the Collision Alert button on the
steering wheel to set the alert timing to Far,
Medium, or Near.
Forward Automatic Braking
F
The brakes may be applied in potential collision
situations to help reduce damage or help avoid
collisions with vehicles directlyahead.
To set the Forward Collision Alert and
Forward Automatic Braking systems to Alert
and Brake, Alert, or Off, go to Settings >
Vehicle > Collision/Detection > Forward Collision System.
Lane Keep Assist with Lane Departure Warning
F
The system may help avoid collisions due to unintentional lane departures. The Lane Keep
Assist indicator is green if the system is available to assist. If the vehicle approaches a detected
lane marking without using a turn signal in that direction, the system may assist by gently turning
the steering wheel and displaying an amber
.
If active driver steering is not detected, the amber may flash and the Safety Alert Seat may
pulse or beeps may sound (if selected) on the side of the departure direction as the lane marking
is crossed. In order to use this system safely, the driver needs to steer and be in complete control
of the vehicle.
To turn on or off, press the Lane Keep Assist button on the center console.
