To turn the warning system and/or chime on or off and set the warning sensitivity <– –>, refer to Message center in the Instrument Cluster chapter.

Note: If the system cannot be turned off in a MyKey equipped vehicle, refer to MyKey in the Locks and Security chapter for more information.

Note: If collision warnings are perceived as being too frequent or disturbing then the warning sensitivity can be reduced, though the manufacturer recommends using the highest sensitivity setting where possible. Setting lower sensitivity would lead to fewer and later system warnings. Refer to the Message center in the Instrument Cluster chapter for instructions on reducing the sensitivity.
