Blind Spot Information (BSI) System*
Alerts you to a detected vehicle in your left or right blind spot.
When a vehicle is detected in your blind spot, the 
blind spot indicator turns on and stays lit until the 
area is clear. 
When your turn signal is on and a vehicle is 
detected, the blind spot indicator blinks and a 
beep sounds until the area is clear or the turn 
signal is off.
Changing BSI Settings
Change the alert type, or turn the system on or off. Use the interface dial to make 
selections.
1. Press SETTINGS.
2. Select Vehicle Settings. The vehicle must be in 
Park (P).
3. Select Blind Spot Info.
4. Select an alert type, or Off.
5. Press BACK to exit the menu.
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, BSI has limitations. Over-reliance on BSI may result in a 
collision. The system is for your convenience only.
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.

Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) System*
A camera mounted between the windshield and the rearview mirror determines 
if your vehicle begins to cross over detected lane markings while driving between 
45–90 mph (72–145 km/h).
If you get too close to a 
detected lane line without 
using your turn signal, a 
message appears in the MID.
Steering wheel torque and 
vibrations are applied to help 
your vehicle stay in the lane. 
Braking may also be applied 
if the lane lines are solid and 
continuous.
Turning the System On or Off
Press the RDM button to turn the system 
on or off. A green indicator appears on the 
button 
when the system is on.
Changing Settings
Determine the warning timing, or turn the system off. Use the interface dial to 
make selections.
1. Press SETTINGS.
2. Select Vehicle Settings. The vehicle must 
be in Park (P).
3. Select Road Departure Mitigation System.
4. Select from the options. 
Normal (default): Steering control starts from inside the lane edge. 
Wide: Steering control starts from outside the lane edge. 
Warning Only: The system only provides a BRAKE message, but does not apply 
steering or braking.
5. Press BACK to exit the menu.
Important Safety Reminder
The system has limitations. Overreliance on it may result in a collision. It is always 
your responsibility to keep your vehicle within the driving lane.
