NOTE:
FCW monitors the information from the forward looking sensors as well as the Electronic
Brake Controller (EBC), to calculate the probability of a forward collision. When the
system determines that a forward collision is probable, the driver will be provided with
audible and visual warnings.
Turning FCW ON Or OFF
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).
NOTE:
• The default status of FCW is "On", this allows the system to warn you of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front of you.
• Changing the FCW status to "Off" prevents the system from warning you of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front of you. If FCW is set to "Off", "FCW OFF" will be
displayed in the Driver Information Display (DID).
Changing FCW Status
The FCW feature has two settings and can be changed within the Uconnect System
Screen:
• Far
• Near
Far
The default status of FCW is the "Far" setting.
The far setting provides warnings for potential collisions more distant in front of the
vehicle, allowing the driver to have the most reaction time to avoid a collision.
More cautious drivers that do not mind frequent warnings may prefer this setting.
NOTE:
This setting gives you the most reaction time.
Near
Changing the FCW status to the "Near" setting, allows the system to warn you of a
potential frontal collision when you are much closer.
This setting provides less reaction time than the "Far" setting, which allows for a more
dynamic driving experience.
More dynamic or aggressive drivers that want to avoid frequent warnings may prefer this
setting.
Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
