FUNCTION
PRE-COLLISION ASSIST WARNING SYSTEM*
The Pre-Collision Assist system uses a radar sensor and a camera sensor
to scan the road ahead to detect stationary vehicles, vehicles moving in
the same direction as yours and upright pedestrians in your driving path.
The system is designed to provide an audible and visual alert, brake
support, and active braking in order to help the driver reduce impact
damage or avoid the crash completely. The system provides support at
speeds above approximately 3 mph (5 km/h) and support for pedestrians
at speeds up to 50 mph (80 km/h).
For specific details on using the system, adjusting the system alert
sensitivity and familiarizing yourself with the system limitations and
warnings, please refer to the Pre-Collision Assist chapter in your
Owner's Manual.
INTELLIGENT ACCESS*
You can unlock and lock the vehicle without taking the key out of
your pocket or purse when your intelligent access key is within 3 feet
(1 meter) of your vehicle.
To unlock, touch the unlock sensor on the back of the door handle for a
brief period and then pull on the door handle to unlock, being careful to
not touch the lock sensor at the same time or pull the door handle
too quickly.
To lock, touch the door handle lock sensor on the door for approximately
one second, being careful to not touch the unlock sensor on the back of
the door handle at the same time.
REMOTE TAILGATE RELEASE*
With the tailgate unlocked, you can open the power tailgate using the
remote transmitter. Press
twice within three seconds.
POWER RUNNING BOARDS*
The running boards automatically extend down and out when you open
the door. This can help you enter and exit your vehicle. When you close
the doors, the running boards return to the stowed position after a two-

information display.
Set the running boards in the deployed position (OUT) to access the roof.
The running boards return to the stowed position and enter automatic
mode when the vehicle speed exceeds 3 mph (5 km/h).
You can enable and disable the power running board feature in the
information display. See the Information Display chapter in your
Owner's Manual for details.
Note: Do not use any part of the power running boards to lift your vehicle
when jacking. Always use proper jacking points. See your Owner's Manual
for details.
