ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP DIFFERENTIAL*
The system is used to control slip across the differential to
provide added traction during various drive conditions. The
system directs torque, enabling you to drive over terrain and road
conditions that a conventional axle cannot.
The system is active all the time and requires no input from
the driver. Under normal conditions, the Electronic Limited Slip
Differential functions like a standard rear axle.
*
LOCKING FUNCTION
Engaging the locker system electronically locks the differential,
causing both half shafts to turn at the same rate and increasing
traction during off-road events. The locker mode may
automatically disengage based on certain conditions such as
vehicle speed.

LANE KEEPING SYSTEM*
The system notifies you to stay in your lane through the steering
system and the display screen when the front camera detects an
unintentional drift out of your lane is likely to occur. The system
automatically detects and tracks the road lane markings using a
camera mounted behind the interior rear view mirror.
The system has optional menu settings available. The system
stores the last known selection for each of these settings. Adjust
the settings to enable one of the three modes:
Alert: Sends vibration pulses to the steering wheel.
Aid: Provides steering torque to help direct the driver to steer the
vehicle back into its lane.
Alert + aid: Provides an assistance steering torque input toward
the lane center. If your vehicle continues drifting out of the lane,
the system provides a steering wheel vibration.
To switch this system on or off, press the button located on the
center console.

and powertrain response.

your pocket or purse when your intelligent access key is within 3
