Failure to follow the warnings and instructions for proper use of the ProPILOT Assist system could result in serious injury or death.

  • ProPILOT Assist is not a self-driving system. Within the limits of its capabilities, as described in this manual, it helps the driver with certain driving activities.

  • The ProPILOT Assist system is not a replacement for proper driving procedures and is not designed to correct careless, inattentive or absent-minded driving. ProPILOT Assist will not always steer the vehicle to keep it in the lane. The ProPILOT Assist system is not designed to prevent loss of control. It is the driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive safely, keep the vehicle in the travelling lane, and be in control of the vehicle at all times.

  • There are limitations to the ProPILOT Assist system capability. The ProPILOT Assist system does not function in all driving, traffic, weather, and road conditions. It is the driver’s responsibility to stay alert, drive safely, keep the vehicle in the travelling lane, and be in control of the vehicle at all times.

  • The ProPILOT Assist system is only an aid to assist the driver and is not a collision warning or avoidance device.

  • The ProPILOT Assist system is for use on highways with opposing traffic separated by a barrier only, and is not intended for city driving. Failure to apply the brakes or steer the vehicle when necessary may result in a serious accident.

  • Always observe posted speed limits and do not set the speed over them.

  • Never take your hands off the steering wheel when driving. Always keep your hands on the steering wheel and drive your vehicle safely.

  • Never unfasten your safety belt when using ProPILOT Assist. Doing so automatically cancels the ProPILOT Assist system.

  • The ProPILOT Assist system does not react when approaching stationary or slow moving vehicles.

  • Always drive carefully and attentively when using the ProPILOT Assist system. Read and understand the Owner’s Manual thoroughly before using the ProPILOT Assist system. To avoid serious injury or death, do not rely on the system to prevent accidents or to control the vehicle’s speed in emergency situations. Do not use the ProPILOT Assist system except in appropriate road and traffic conditions.

The ProPILOT Assist system is intended to enhance the operation of the vehicle when following a vehicle travelling in the same lane and direction.

The ProPILOT Assist system uses a multi-sensing front camera (A) installed behind the windscreen to monitor the lane markers and a radar sensor (B) located on the front of the vehicle to measure the distance to the vehicle ahead in the same lane. If the system detects a slower moving vehicle ahead, the system will reduce the vehicle speed so that your vehicle follows the vehicle in front at the selected distance. The system will also help keep the vehicle centered in the travelling lane when clear lane markings are detected.

It is important to ensure the front camera and radar sensors are clear at all times. (See
