Optional equipment

Safety or driver assistance features are no substitute for the driver’s responsibility to operate the vehicle 

in a safe manner. The driver should remain attentive to traffic, surroundings and road conditions at all 

times. Read your Owner’s Manual for important feature limitations and information.

Lane Departure Warning

F

The   Lane Departure Warning Indicator on the instrument cluster is green when a lane 

marking is detected. If a detected lane marking is crossed without using a turn signal in that 

direction, the system flashes an amber   indicator and 3 beeps sound on the side of the 

departure direction. 

  To turn on or off, press the   

Lane Departure Warning

 button (A) on the  center of the 

instrument panel.

Forward Collision Alert

F

The   Vehicle Ahead Indicator is green on the instrument cluster when a vehicle is detected 

and is amber when following a vehicle ahead much too closely. When approaching a vehi-

cle directly ahead too rapidly, a red alert flashes on the windshield and rapid beeps sound. 

  Press the 

Collision Alert

 button on the steering wheel to select a following gap 

 setting of Far, Medium, Near, or Off.

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. 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 Systems > Side 

Blind Zone Alert.

Traction Control and StabiliTrak

®

 Systems

The traction control system limits wheelspin and the StabiliTrak stability control system assists 

with directional control of the vehicle in difficult driving conditions. Both systems turn on 

 automatically every time the vehicle is started. Traction control should be turned off if the 

vehicle is stuck.

  Press the   

Traction Control/StabiliTrak

 button on the center of the instrument panel to 

turn traction control off or on again. The 

Traction Control Off light will illuminate in the 

instrument cluster when traction control is off.

Front and Rear Park Assist

F

During low-speed parking maneuvers, detected objects are indicated by audible beeps. 

The interval between beeps becomes shorter as the vehicle gets closer to an object. When 

the distance is less than 12 in. (30 cm), the beeps are continuous. The system operates 

only at speeds less than 5 mph. 

  To turn on or off, press the 

Park Assist 

button (B) on the center of the instrument 

panel.
