Driver Message Center

Detroit Assurance is a driver safety system on vehicles equipped with a Detroit engine and DT12 or a manual transmission. The system uses a bumper-mounted radar and an optional windshield-mounted camera to communicate information to the vehicles's brakes, engine, and transmission. The system can track forward-facing vehicles and objects up to 600 feet (200 meters), and will sound a warning and apply the brakes, if necessary.

The driver message center displays warnings and the status of Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and/or Lane Departure Warning. Refer to "Adaptive Cruise Control" and "Lane Departure Warning" for more information.

To show distance, speed, and lane markings, scroll to the ACC menu using the + and – switches mounted in the right-hand pod of the steering wheel. Refer to Chapter 4 for more information on driver message center controls.
