The driver assistance systems use advanced technologies to help avoid collisions by
providing visual and audible alerts under some imminent collision conditions.
Side Blind Zone Alert
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.
Rear Vision Camera
Rear Vision Camera displays a view of the area behind the vehicle.
Rear Cross-Traffic Alert warns of traffic coming from either direction — up to 65 feet (20 m)
from the left or right side of the vehicle — by displaying a visual alert on the Rear Vision
Camera display and sounding three beeps from the left or right.
Rear Parking Assist
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 only operates at speeds less than 5 mph.
Note: These systems may not be available if dirt or snow builds up on the sensors or camera lens.
Keep the vehicle clean for proper operation.
Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF)
DEF is used with diesel engines to reduce the amount of
regulated emissions produced. The 4.8-gallon DEF tank is
located under the load floor in the trunk. The amount of DEF
in the tank must be maintained for the vehicle to run correctly.
The DEF level indicator is displayed on the Driver Information
Center. When approaching empty, a message will be dis-
played to refill the DEF tank. If it is not refilled, the engine
computer will begin to limit vehicle speed, starting at 65 mph,
and over time and mileage will reduce maximum speed to less
than 10 mph.
DEF may be obtained at your dealership or many diesel retailers. The DEF tank will be
refilled at dealerships for the first two years of ownership as part of the regular mainte-
nance package.
Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF)
The DPF filters the diesel exhaust gas. Occasionally, the DPF needs to be cleaned. The
DPF cleaning cycle is automatically controlled by the engine computer and should normally
be maintenance-free. If the vehicle is not being operated in a manner to allow effective
DPF cleaning, a message will be displayed on the Driver Information Center. Refer to your
Owner Manual for additional maintenance information.
