The forward collision button is located on the switch panel
below the Uconnect display.
To turn the FCW system off, push the forward collision
button once (LED turns on).
To turn the FCW system back on, push the forward
collision button again (LED turns off).
Changing the FCW status to “off” prevents the system
from warning you of a possible collision with the vehicle
in front of you.
Changing the FCW sensitivity - Near vs. Far. Far warns
the driver of a possible collision earlier and Near warns
the driver later.
Changing the Active Braking status to “off” prevents the
system from providing limited active braking, or addi-
tional 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.
NOTE: The FCW system state is kept in memory from one
key cycle to the next. If the system is turned off, it will
remain off when the vehicle is restarted.
Changing FCW And Active Braking Status
The FCW Sensitivity And Active Braking Settings are
programmable through the Uconnect System. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further informa-
tion.
The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting and the
Active Braking is the “On” setting, this allows the system
to warn you of a possible collision with the vehicle in front
of you when you are farther away and it applies limited
braking. This gives you the most reaction time to avoid a
possible collision.
