Forward Collision Alert (FCA) System

If equipped, FCA may help avoid or

reduce the harm caused by front-end crashes. FCA provides a green

indicator, V, when a vehicle is

detected ahead. This indicator

displays amber if you follow a vehicle too closely. When approaching a

vehicle ahead too quickly, FCA

provides a flashing red alert on the

windshield and rapidly beeps or pulses the driver seat.

See Forward Collision Alert (FCA) System 0 267.

Night Vision System

If equipped, this system can help the driver see and alert the driver to

pedestrians or large animals ahead of the vehicle beyond the area lit by the headlamps.

See Night Vision System 0 273.

Forward Automatic Braking (FAB)

If the vehicle has Forward Collision Alert (FCA), it also has FAB, which

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.

See Forward Automatic Braking (FAB)

0 269.

Front Pedestrian Braking (FPB) System

If equipped, the 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 directly ahead.

When approaching a detected

pedestrian too quickly, FPB provides a red flashing alert on the windshield

image

and rapidly beeps or pulses the driver seat. FPB can provide a boost to

braking or automatically brake the vehicle.

See Front Pedestrian Braking (FPB) System 0 270.

Lane Keep Assist (LKA)

If equipped, LKA may help avoid crashes due to unintentional lane

departures. It may assist by gently turning the steering wheel if the

vehicle approaches a detected lane

marking without using a turn signal in that direction. It may also provide a

Lane Departure Warning (LDW) alert as the lane marking is crossed. The

system will not assist or alert if it

detects that you are actively steering. Override LKA by turning the steering wheel. LKA uses a camera to detect

lane markings between 60 km/h (37

mph) and 180 km/h (112 mph).

See Lane Departure Warning (LDW) 0 277 and Lane Keep Assist (LKA) 0 277.
