AWD System

*

The Intelligent Variable Torque Management (i-VTM4

TM

) AWD System is a full time

all wheel drive system that automatically controls and transfers varying amount of
engine torque to all wheels independently according to the driving conditions.

You still need to exercise the same care when accelerating, steering, and braking
that you would in a two wheel drive vehicle.

Avoid continuously driving on slippery surfaces where a wheel is likely to spin out,
and do not drive if the All-wheel drive (

AWD

) Indicator starts blinking. Driving

continuously under such conditions can damage the system’s torque distribution
unit.

If the All-wheel drive (

AWD

) Indicator blinks while driving, it indicates the

differential temperature is too high. If this happens, pull to the side of the road
when it is safe, shift to park, and idle the engine until the indicator goes out. If the
indicator does not go out, take your vehicle to a dealer to have it checked.

NOTICE

Do not continuously spin the front tires of your
vehicle. Continuously spinning the front tires can
cause transmission or rear differential damage.

The Intelligent Variable Torque Management (i-

) AWD System may not function properly if

tire type and size are mixed. Make sure to use the
same size and type of tire, and the air pressures as
specified.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) with Tire Fill Assist

Driving

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) with Tire
Fill Assist

Monitors the tire pressure while you are
driving. If your vehicle’s tire pressure becomes
significantly low, the Low Tire Pressure/TPMS
indicator comes on and a message appears on
the multi-information display.

1

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) with Tire Fill Assist

Conditions such as low ambient temperature and
altitude change directly affect tire pressure and can
trigger the Low Tire Pressure/TPMS indicator to come
on.

If the Low Tire Pressure/TPMS Indicator
Comes On or Blinks

Tire pressure checked and inflated in:

Warm weather can become under-inflated in
colder weather.

Cold weather can become overinflated in warmer
weather.

The Low Tire Pressure/TPMS indicator will not come
on as a result of overinflation.

Only use genuine TPMS specified wheels since your
vehicle’s wheels are equipped with the low tire
pressure/TPMS sensor.
If you drive your vehicle without the genuine TPMS
specified wheels, the low tire pressure/TPMS indicator
blinks for about one minute and then stays on.

The TPMS audibly and visually informs you of
changes in tire pressure of the individual tire that you
are adjusting using audible and visual indications.

If a change in tire pressure has been significant, the
system beeps and the hazard lights flash continuously
for five seconds when the specified tire pressure is
reached. Stop filling the tire.

off after you have inflated the tire to the specified
pressure, have the system checked by a dealer.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation

Driving

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required
Federal Explanation

Each tire, including the spare (if provided), should be checked
monthly when cold and inflated to the inflation pressure
recommended by the vehicle manufacturer on the vehicle placard
or tire inflation pressure label.

(If your vehicle has tires of a different size than the size indicated
on the vehicle placard or tire inflation pressure label, you should
determine the proper tire inflation pressure for those tires.)

As an added safety feature, your vehicle has been equipped with
a tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) that illuminates a low
tire pressure telltale

when one or more of your tires is significantly under-inflated.

Accordingly, when the low tire pressure telltale illuminates, you
should stop and check your tires as soon as possible, and inflate
them to the proper pressure.

Driving on a significantly under-inflated tire causes the tire to
overheat and can lead to tire failure. Under-inflation also reduces
fuel efficiency and tire tread life, and may affect the vehicle’s
handling and stopping ability.

419

uu

When Driving

u

Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) - Required Federal Explanation

Driving

Please note that the TPMS is not a substitute for proper tire
maintenance, and it is the driver’s responsibility to maintain
correct tire pressure, even if under-inflation has not reached the
level to trigger illumination of the TPMS low tire pressure telltale.

Your vehicle has also been equipped with a TPMS malfunction
indicator to indicate when the system is not operating properly.
The TPMS malfunction indicator is combined with the low tire
pressure telltale. When the system detects a malfunction, the
telltale will flash for approximately one minute and then remain
continuously illuminated. This sequence will continue upon
subsequent vehicle start-ups as long as the malfunction exists.

When the malfunction indicator is illuminated, the system may
not be able to detect or signal low tire pressure as intended.

TPMS malfunctions may occur for a variety of reasons, including
the installation of replacement or alternate tires or wheels on the
vehicle that prevent the TPMS from functioning properly.

Always check the TPMS malfunction telltale after replacing one or
more tires or wheels on your vehicle to ensure that the
replacement or alternate tires and wheels allow the TPMS to
continue to function properly.

Blind spot information System

Driving

Blind spot information System

*

Is designed to detect vehicles in specified alert zones adjacent to your vehicle,
particularly in harder to see areas commonly known as “blind spots.”

When the system detects vehicles approaching from behind in adjacent lanes, the
appropriate indicator comes on for a few seconds, providing assistance when you
change lanes.

How the system works

Important Safety Reminder

Like all assistance systems, blind spot information
system has limitations. Overreliance on blind spot
information system may result in a collision.

The system is for your convenience only. Even if an
object is within the alert zone, the following
situations may occur.

The blind spot information system alert indicator
may not come on due to obstruction (splashes,
etc.) even without the

multi-information display appearing.

The blind spot information system alert indicator
may come on even with the message appearing.

WARNING

Failure to visually confirm that it is safe to
change lanes before doing so may result in
a crash and serious injury or death.
Do not rely only on the blind spot
information system when changing lanes.

Always look in your mirrors, to either side
of your vehicle, and behind you for other
vehicles before changing lanes.

Driving

Collision Mitigation Braking System

TM

(CMBS

TM

)

The system can assist you when it determines there is a possibility of your vehicle
colliding with a vehicle or a pedestrian detected in front of your vehicle. The CMBS

TM

is designed to alert you when the potential for a collision is determined, as well as to
reduce your vehicle speed to help minimize collision severity when a collision is
deemed unavoidable.

How the system works

1

Collision Mitigation Braking System

TM

(CMBS

Important Safety Reminder

The CMBS

TM

is designed to reduce the severity of an

unavoidable collision. It does not prevent collisions nor
stop the vehicle automatically. It is still your
responsibility to operate the brake pedal and steering
wheel appropriately according to the driving conditions.

The CMBS

TM

may not activate or may not detect a

vehicle in front of your vehicle under certain conditions:

How the system works

Rapid vibrations on the steering wheel alert you
when your vehicle speed is between 19 and 62 mph
(30 and 100 km/h) with an oncoming vehicle
detected in front of you.

When the CMBS

TM

activates, it may automatically

apply the brake. It will be canceled when your vehicle
stops or a potential collision is not determined.

The system starts monitoring the roadway ahead when your vehicle speed is about
3 mph (5 km/h) or above and will search for a vehicle in front of you.

The radar sensor is
behind the emblem.

The CMBS

TM

activates when:

The speed difference between your vehicle and a vehicle or pedestrian
detected in front of you becomes about 3 mph (5 km/h) and over with a chance
of a collision.

Your vehicle speed is about 62 mph (100 km/h) or less and there is a chance of a
collision with an oncoming detected vehicle or a pedestrian in front of you.

The camera is
located behind the
rearview mirror.
