WARNING!

(Continued)

• Does not predict the lane curvature or the movement of preceding vehicles

and will not compensate for such changes.

• Does not always fully recognize complex driving conditions, which can result

in wrong or missing distance warnings.

• May not detect a vehicle ahead when strong light (for example, sunrise or

sunset) is directly shining on the front of the vehicle.

• Can only apply a maximum of 25% of the vehicle’s braking capability, and

will not bring the vehicle to a complete stop.

You should switch off the ACC system:
• When driving in fog, heavy rain, heavy snow, sleet, heavy traffic, and complex

driving situations (i.e., in highway construction zones).

• When entering a turn lane or highway off ramp; when driving on roads that

are winding, icy, snow-covered, slippery, or have steep uphill or downhill
slopes; and when towing a trailer.

• When circumstances do not allow safe driving at a constant speed.
• Failure to follow these warnings can result in a collision.
• Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not intended to avoid a collision on its

own. The driver has the responsibility to avoid a collision by controlling the
vehicle via braking and steering. Failure to follow this warning could lead to
serious injury or death.

ELECTRONIC SHIFTER – 3.6L ENGINE

• Your new vehicle is equipped with a

state of the art, fuel efficient 8 speed
transmission. The electronic shift lever
in this vehicle does not slide like a
conventional shifter. Instead, the shift
lever is spring loaded and moves
forward and rearward, always returning
to the center position after each gear is
selected.

• The transmission gear (PRND) is

displayed both on the shift lever and in
the Electronic Vehicle Information
Center (EVIC).
