NOTE:
• The minimum speed for FCW activation is
1 mph (2 km/h).
• The FCW alerts may be triggered on objects
other than vehicles such as guard rails or
sign posts based on the course prediction.
This is expected and is a part of normal
FCW activation and functionality.
• It is unsafe to test the FCW system. To
prevent such misuse of the system, after
four Active Braking events within an igni-
tion cycle, the Active Braking portion of
FCW will be deactivated until the next igni-
tion cycle.
• The FCW system is intended for on-road use
only. If the vehicle is taken off-road, the
FCW system should be deactivated to pre-
vent unnecessary warnings to the surround-
ings. If the vehicle enters 4WD Low Range
or ESC Full-Off Mode is active, the FCW
system will be automatically deactivated.
WARNING!
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not
intended to avoid a collision on its own,
WARNING!
nor can FCW detect every type of potential
collision. The driver has the responsibility
to avoid a collision by controlling the ve-
hicle via braking and steering. Failure to
follow this warning could lead to serious
injury or death.
FCW Braking Status And Sensitivity
The FCW Sensitivity and Active Braking sta-
tus are programmable through the Uconnect
System. Refer to “Uconnect Settings” in
“Multimedia” in the Owner’s Manual for fur-
ther information.
The default sensitivity of FCW is the “Me-
dium” setting and the system status is
“Warning & Braking”. This allows the system
to warn the driver of a possible collision with
the vehicle in front using audible/visual warn-
ings and it applies autonomous braking.
Changing the FCW status to “Far” setting
allows the system to warn the driver of a
possible collision with the vehicle in front
using audible/visual warning when the latter
is at a farther distance than "Medium" set-
ting. This provides the most reaction time to
avoid a possible collision.
Changing the FCW status to the “Near” set-
ting, allows the system to warn the driver of a
possible collision with the vehicle in front
when the distance between the vehicle in the
front is much closer. This setting provides
less reaction time than the “Far” and “Me-
dium” settings, which allows for a more dy-
namic driving experience.
NOTE:
• Changing the FCW status to “Only Warn-
ing” prevents the system from providing
limited active braking, or additional brake
support if the driver is not braking ad-
equately in the event of a potential frontal
collision, but maintains the audible and
visual warnings.
• Changing the FCW status to “Off” prevents
the system from providing autonomous
braking, or additional brake support if the
driver is not braking adequately in the event
of a potential frontal collision.
•
The system will retain the last setting se-
lected by the driver after ignition shut down.
