Warning (Continued) making a lane change, always check the mirrors and glance over your shoulder.
Improper use could result in serious injury to you or others.
Park Assist.
The vehicle may be equipped with Front and.
Rear Park Assist (FRPA). Under certain conditions, the Park Assist system can assist the driver during backing and parking maneuvers when the vehicle is driven at no more than 9 km/h (6 mph). An illuminated indicator in the Park Assist button indicates the system is ready.
Sensors located in the bumpers measure the distance between the vehicle and objects using sonar technology. These sensors are designed to detect certain objects up to.
● 5 m (8 ft) behind and 1.2 m (4 ft) in front of your vehicle that are taller than.
25. cm (10 in).
Different environmental conditions may affect whether and how far the Park Assist system can detect objects. Keep the sensors clean of mud, dirt, snow, ice, and slush; and clean sensors after a car wash in freezing temperatures. Sensors that are not clean may not detect objects or may cause the system to alert when not required.
⚠ Warning.
The Park Assist System is no substitute for careful and attentive driving. The Park.
Assist system does not detect children, pedestrians, bicyclists, animals, or objects located below the bumper or that are too close or too far from the vehicle. It is not available at speeds greater than 9 km/h.
(6 mph). To prevent injury, death, or vehicle damage, even with Park Assist, always check the area around the vehicle and check all mirrors before moving forward or backing.
How the System Works.
The vehicle may have a Park.
Assist amphitheatre-like display on the cluster with bars that represent the estimated location of a detected object and the vehicle’s distance from the object. As a detected object becomes closer, more bars light up and change color from yellow to amber to red.
When an object is first detected in the rear, one beep will be heard from the rear, or the driver’s seat will pulse two times, if equipped with Safety Alert Seat. When an object is very close, five beeps will sound from the front or rear (depending on the object’s location), or the driver’s seat will pulse five times. Beeps for front are higher pitched than the rear.
Turning the System On and Off.
The Park Assist System can be turned on or off using the infotainment system. See.
Vehicle Personalization 0 125.
TheXbutton is used to turn on or off the Park Assist, which also turns on or off the Backing Warning at the same time.
When the system is turned off, a system off message is shown on the display. This message disappears after a short period of time.
Turn off Park Assist when towing a trailer to prevent unwanted beeps and when a bike rack is attached to ensure proper operation.
When the System Does Not Seem to Work.
Properly.
If a service message displays, check the following conditions:.
● The sensors may not be clean. Keep the vehicle’s front and rear bumpers free of mud, dirt, snow, ice, and slush. For cleaning instructions, see Exterior Care.
0. 328.
● The Park Assist sensors may be covered by frost or ice. Frost or ice can form around and behind the sensors and may not always be seen; this can occur after washing the vehicle in cold weather. The message may not clear until the frost or ice has melted.
If a service message displays and the above conditions do not exist, take the vehicle to your dealer for repairs.
If the Park Assist System does not activate due to a temporary condition, a system off message is shown on the display. This can occur under the following conditions:.
● The driver has disabled the system.
● An object is currently blocking the rear sensors (for example, bike rack, tailgate, trailer hitch, etc.). Once the object is removed, Park Assist will return to normal operation.
● The bumper is damaged. Take the vehicle to your dealer for repairs.
● Other conditions, such as vibrations from a jackhammer or the compression of air brakes on a very large truck, are affecting system performance.
Rear Pedestrian Alert.
Under certain conditions, this feature can provide alerts for a pedestrian within the system’s range directly behind the vehicle.
This feature only works in R (Reverse) below.
12. km/h (8 mph), and detects pedestrians up to 8 m (26 ft) away during daytime driving.
During nighttime driving, feature performance is very limited.
Rear Pedestrian Alert Indicator.
When a pedestrian is detected within the system’s range directly behind the vehicle, this symbol flashes amber on the infotainment display, along with two beeps from the rear, or if equipped, two pulses from both sides of the driver seat. When a pedestrian is detected close to the vehicle, the symbol flashes red on the infotainment display, along with seven beeps from the rear, or if equipped, seven pulses from both sides of the driver seat.
⚠ Warning.
Rear Pedestrian Alert does not automatically brake the vehicle. It also does not provide an alert unless it detects a pedestrian, and it may not detect all pedestrians if:.

Detecting the Vehicle Ahead.
FCA warnings will not occur unless the FCA system detects a vehicle ahead. When a vehicle is detected, the vehicle ahead indicator will display green. Vehicles may not be detected on curves, highway exit ramps, or hills, due to poor visibility; or if a vehicle ahead is partially blocked by pedestrians or other objects. FCA will not detect another vehicle ahead until it is completely in the driving lane.
⚠ Warning.
FCA does not provide a warning to help avoid a crash, unless it detects a vehicle.
FCA may not detect a vehicle ahead if the FCA sensor is blocked by dirt, snow, or ice, or if the windshield is damaged.
It may also not detect a vehicle on winding or hilly roads, or in conditions that can limit visibility such as fog, rain, or snow, or if the headlamps or windshield are not cleaned or in proper condition. Keep the windshield, headlamps, and FCA sensors clean and in good repair.
Collision Alert.
When your vehicle approaches another detected vehicle too rapidly, the red FCA display will flash on the windshield. Also, eight rapid high-pitched beeps will sound from the front. When this Collision Alert occurs, the brake system may prepare for driver braking to occur more rapidly which can cause a brief, mild deceleration.
Consider traffic and weather conditions when selecting the alert timing. The range of selectable alert timings may not be appropriate for all drivers and driving conditions.
If your vehicle is equipped with Adaptive.
Cruise Control (ACC), changing the FCA timing setting automatically changes the following gap setting (Far, Medium, or Near).
Following Distance Indication.
The following distance to a moving vehicle you are following is indicated in following time in seconds on the DIC. See Driver.
Information Center (DIC) (Base and Midlevel).
0. 120 or.
Driver Information Center (DIC) (Uplevel).
0. 122. The minimum following time is.
● 5 seconds away. If there is no vehicle detected ahead, or the vehicle ahead is out of sensor range, dashes will be displayed.
Unnecessary Alerts.
FCA may provide unnecessary alerts for turning vehicles, vehicles in other lanes, objects that are not vehicles, or shadows.
These alerts are normal operation and the vehicle does not need service.
Cleaning the System.
If the FCA system does not seem to operate properly, this may correct the issue:.
● Clean the outside of the windshield in front of the rearview mirror.
● Clean the entire front of the vehicle.
● Clean the headlamps.
Automatic Emergency.
Braking (AEB).
The AEB system may help avoid or reduce the harm caused by front-end crashes. AEB also includes Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA).
When the system detects a vehicle ahead in your path that is traveling in the same direction that you may be about to crash into, it can provide a boost to braking or automatically brake the vehicle. This can help avoid or lessen the severity of crashes when driving in a forward gear. Depending on the situation, the vehicle may automatically brake moderately or hard. This automatic emergency braking can only occur if a vehicle is detected. This is shown by the.
FCA vehicle ahead indicator being lit. See.
Forward Collision Alert (FCA) System 0 246.
The system works when driving in a forward gear between 8 km/h (5 mph) and 80 km/h.
(50 mph), or on vehicles with Adaptive.
Cruise Control (ACC), above 4 km/h (2 mph).
It can detect vehicles up to approximately.
60. m (197 ft).
⚠ Warning.
AEB is an emergency crash preparation feature and is not designed to avoid crashes. Do not rely on AEB to brake the vehicle. AEB will not brake outside of its operating speed range and only responds to detected vehicles.
AEB may not:.
● Detect a vehicle ahead on winding or hilly roads.
● Detect all vehicles, especially vehicles with a trailer, tractors, muddy vehicles, etc.
● Detect a vehicle when weather limits visibility, such as in fog, rain, or snow.
● Detect a vehicle ahead if it is partially blocked by pedestrians or other objects.
Complete attention is always required while driving, and you should be ready to take action and apply the brakes and/or steer the vehicle to avoid crashes.
AEB may slow the vehicle to a complete stop to try to avoid a potential crash. If this happens, AEB may engage the Electric.
Parking Brake (EPB) to hold the vehicle at a stop. Release the EPB or firmly press the accelerator pedal.
⚠ Warning.
AEB may automatically brake the vehicle suddenly in situations where it is unexpected and undesired. It could respond to a turning vehicle ahead, guardrails, signs, and other non-moving objects. To override AEB, firmly press the accelerator pedal, if it is safe to do so.
Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA).
IBA may activate when the brake pedal is applied quickly by providing a boost to braking based on the speed of approach and distance to a vehicle ahead.
Minor brake pedal pulsations or pedal movement during this time is normal and the brake pedal should continue to be applied as needed. IBA will automatically disengage only when the brake pedal is released.
⚠ Warning.
IBA may increase vehicle braking in situations when it may not be necessary.
You could block the flow of traffic. If this occurs, take your foot off the brake pedal and then apply the brakes as needed.
AEB and IBA can be disabled through vehicle personalization. See “Collision/Detection.
Systems” under Vehicle Personalization.
0. 125.
⚠ Warning.
Using AEB or IBA while towing a trailer could cause you to lose control of the vehicle and crash. Turn the system to.
Alert, or if the vehicle has ACC to Off, when towing a trailer.
A system unavailable message may display if:.
● The front of the vehicle or windshield is not clean.
● Heavy rain or snow is interfering with object detection.
● There is a problem with the StabiliTrak/.
Electronic Stability Control (ESC) system.
The AEB system does not need service.
Front Pedestrian Braking (FPB).
System.
If equipped, the Front Pedestrian Braking.
(FPB) system may help avoid or reduce the harm caused by front-end crashes with nearby pedestrians when driving in a forward gear. FPB displays an amber indicator, ~, when a nearby pedestrian is detected ahead. When approaching a detected pedestrian too quickly, FPB provides a red flashing alert on the windshield and rapidly beeps. FPB can provide a boost to braking or automatically brake the vehicle. This system includes.
Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA), and the.
Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) system may also respond to pedestrians. See.
Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) 0 248.
The FPB system can detect and alert to pedestrians in a forward gear at speeds between 8 km/h (5 mph) and 80 km/h.
(50 mph). During daytime driving, the system detects pedestrians up to a distance of approximately 40 m (131 ft). During nighttime driving, system performance is very limited.
⚠ Warning.
FPB does not provide an alert or automatically brake the vehicle, unless it detects a pedestrian. FPB may not detect pedestrians, including children:.
● When the pedestrian is not directly ahead, fully visible, or standing upright, or when part of a group.
● Due to poor visibility, including nighttime conditions, fog, rain, or snow.
● If the FPB sensor is blocked by dirt, snow, or ice.
● If the headlamps or windshield are not cleaned or in proper condition.
(Continued).
Warning (Continued).
Be ready to take action and apply the brakes. For more information, see.

Personalization 0 125.
Detecting the Pedestrian Ahead.
FPB alerts and automatic braking will not occur unless the FPB system detects a pedestrian. When a nearby pedestrian is detected in front of the vehicle, the pedestrian ahead indicator will display amber.
Front Pedestrian Alert.
When the vehicle approaches a pedestrian ahead too rapidly, the red FPB alert display will flash on the windshield. Eight rapid high-pitched beeps will sound from the front. 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 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 crashes or reduce pedestrian injury. FPB can automatically brake to detected pedestrians 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.
If this happens, Automatic Braking may engage the Electric Parking Brake (EPB) to hold the vehicle at a stop. Release the EPB.
A firm press of the accelerator pedal will also release Automatic Braking and the EPB.
⚠ Warning.
FPB may alert or automatically brake the vehicle suddenly in situations where it is unexpected and undesired. It could falsely alert or brake for objects similar in shape or size to pedestrians, including shadows.
This is normal operation and the vehicle does not need service. To override.
Automatic Braking, firmly press the accelerator pedal, if it is safe to do so.
Automatic Braking can be disabled through vehicle personalization. See “Front Pedestrian.
Detection” in “Collision/Detection Systems” under Vehicle Personalization 0 125.
⚠ Warning.
Using the Front Pedestrian Braking system while towing a trailer could cause you to lose control of the vehicle and crash. Turn the system to Alert or Off when towing a trailer.
Cleaning the System.
If FPB does not seem to operate properly, cleaning the outside of the windshield in front of the rearview mirror may correct the issue.
Side Blind Zone Alert (SBZA).
If equipped, the SBZA system is a lane-changing aid that assists drivers with avoiding crashes that occur with moving vehicles in the side blind zone, or blind spot areas. When the vehicle is in a forward gear, the left or right side mirror display will light up if a moving vehicle is detected in that blind zone. If the turn signal is activated and a vehicle is also detected on the same side, the display will flash as an extra warning not to change lanes. Since this system is part of the Lane Change Alert (LCA) system, read the entire LCA section before using this feature.
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 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.
● SBZA Detection Zone.
● 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.
● 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 from up to 70 m (230 ft) behind the vehicle.
How the System Works.
The LCA symbol lights up in the outside mirrors when the system detects a moving vehicle in the next lane over that is in the side blind zone or rapidly approaching that zone from behind. A lit LCA symbol 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.
Left Outside Mirror.
Display.
Right Outside Mirror.
Display.
When the vehicle is started, both outside mirror LCA displays will briefly come on to indicate the system is operating. When the vehicle is in a forward gear, the left or right outside mirror display will light up if a moving vehicle is detected in the next lane over in that blind zone or rapidly approaching that zone. If the turn signal is activated in the same direction as a detected vehicle, this display will flash as an extra warning not to change lanes.
LCA can be disabled through vehicle personalization. When you disable LCA, Side.
Blind Zone Alert is also disabled. See.
“Collision/Detection Systems” under Vehicle.
Personalization 0 125. If LCA is disabled by the driver, the LCA mirror displays will not light up.
When the System Does Not Seem to.
Work Properly.
The LCA system requires some driving for the system to calibrate to maximum performance. This calibration may occur more quickly if the vehicle is driving on a straight highway road with traffic and roadside objects (e.g., guardrails, barriers).
LCA displays may not come on when passing a vehicle quickly, for a stopped vehicle, or when towing a trailer. The LCA detection zones that extend back from the side of the vehicle do not move further back when a trailer is towed. Use caution while changing lanes when towing a trailer. LCA may alert to objects attached to the vehicle, such as a trailer, bicycle, or object extending out to either side of the vehicle. Attached objects may also interfere with the detection of vehicles. This is normal system operation; the vehicle does not need service.
LCA may not always alert the driver to vehicles in the next lane over, especially in wet conditions or when driving on sharp curves. The system does not need to be serviced. The system may light up due to guardrails, signs, trees, shrubs, and other non-moving objects. This is normal system operation; the vehicle does not need service.
LCA may not operate when the LCA sensors in the left or right corners of the rear bumper are covered with mud, dirt, snow, ice, or slush, or in heavy rainstorms. For cleaning instructions, see “Washing the.
Vehicle” under Exterior Care 0 328. If the DIC still displays the system unavailable message after cleaning both sides of the vehicle toward the rear corners of the vehicle, see your dealer.
If the LCA displays do not light up when moving vehicles are in the side blind zone or are rapidly approaching this zone and the system is clean, the system may need service. Take the vehicle to your dealer.
Radio Frequency Information.
See Radio Frequency Statement 0 361.
Lane Keep Assist (LKA).
If equipped, LKA may help avoid crashes due to unintentional lane departures. This system uses a camera to detect lane markings. The LKA may be ready to assist at speeds between 50 km/h (31 mph) and 180 km/h (112 mph). LKA may assist by gently turning the steering wheel if the vehicle approaches a detected lane marking. It may also provide a Lane Departure Warning.
(LDW) alert if the vehicle crosses a detected lane marking. This system is not intended to keep the vehicle centered in the lane. LKA will not assist and alert if the turn signal is active in the direction of lane departure, or if it detects that you are accelerating, braking or actively steering. LKA can be overridden by turning the steering wheel.
If the system detects you are steering intentionally across a lane marker, the LDW will not be given. Do not expect the LDW to occur when you are intentionally crossing a lane marker.
⚠ Warning.
The LKA system does not continuously steer the vehicle. It may not keep the vehicle in the lane or give a Lane.
Departure Warning (LDW) alert, even if a lane marking is detected.
The LKA and LDW systems may not:.
(Continued).
Warning (Continued).
● Provide an alert or enough steering assist to avoid a lane departure or crash.
● Detect lane markings under poor weather or visibility conditions. This can occur if the windshield or headlamps are blocked by dirt, snow, or ice; if they are not in proper condition; or if the sun shines directly into the camera.
● Detect road edges.
● Detect lanes on winding or hilly roads.
If LKA only detects lane markings on one side of the road, it will only assist or provide an LDW alert when approaching the lane on the side where it has detected a lane marking. Even with LKA and LDW, you must steer the vehicle.
Always keep your attention on the road and maintain proper vehicle position within the lane, or vehicle damage, injury, or death could occur.

How the System Works.
LKA uses a camera sensor installed on the windshield ahead of the rearview mirror to detect lane markings. It may provide brief steering assist if it detects an unintended lane departure. It may further provide an audible alert or the driver seat may pulse indicating that a lane marking has been crossed. The system does not provide a Lane.

When the System Does Not Seem to.
Work Properly.
The system performance may be affected by:.
● Close vehicles ahead.
● Sudden lighting changes, such as when driving through tunnels.
● Banked roads.
● Roads with poor lane markings, such as two-lane roads.
If the LKA system is not functioning properly when lane markings are clearly visible, cleaning the windshield may help.
