Guide/Help Smart Driving Aids

[TelleSuby]

Does anyone understand the difference between all the smart driving features, what they do, when they're active, and how to adjust any available settings? I'm wondering if someone can help fill out a table that lists each smart driving feature, and relevant information. I get some of them, but am totally confused with the lane related ones. Here's what I've got so far.

Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA)
Smart Cruise Control (SCC) with Stop & Go
Leading Vehicle Departure Alert System
Lane Following Assist (LFA)
Highway Driving Assist (HDA)
Lane Keeping Assist (LKA)
Blind-Spot Collision Warning (BCW)/Blind-Spot Collision-Avoidance Assist (BCA) System
Rear Cross-Traffic Collisoin Warning (RCCW) / Rear Cross-Traffic Collision-Avoidance Assist (RCCA) system

Yes, I'm reading the manual, but it's not so clear.

That's basically like the whole tech package. There is a smaller manual that came with the Telluride - it's like a shortened version of the bigger manual - an executive summary if you will. Did you read that one? And read it again? I thought that was clear. This is too much for me to type out. Maybe you start filling it in?

Most all features can be turned off using the steering wheel controls (via small screen between gauges). There are two buttons on left of steering wheel for the LKA and the Blind Spot Collision warning system.

Let me look for the shorter Executive Summary, I don't remember that one. I've been looking at the full manual which is much longer.

I'll find the shorter summary version, and will start filling the table in.

It seems like some of the features are subsets of others. For example, i think the Smart Cruise Control (SCC) uses the Lane Following Assist (LFA). And I'm not sure that LFA does anythign on it's own when SCC isn't being used.

Seriously though ... you can put a little effort and google/youtube some of these questions.

You can also use the search function on the forum and you'll see some videos and other threads that may help you understand these features better.

Correct! You're getting it...
