190 SAFETY
When the system determines a collision with the vehicle in
front of you is no longer probable, the warning message
will be deactivated.
NOTE:
• The minimum speed for FCW activation is 4 mph
(7 km/h).
• The maximum speed for FCW activation is 124 mph
(200 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.
• The FCW system is intended for on-road use only. If the
vehicle is taken off-road, the FCW system should be
deactivated to prevent unnecessary warnings to the
surroundings.
• If the vehicle enters 4WD Low Range, the FCW system
will be automatically deactivated.
• The active braking is enabled only if the front seat belts
are fastened.
• The active braking is disabled when a trailer is con-
nected with a Mopar Trailer Towing system. If the
vehicle is equipped with an aftermarket system, it is
recommended that the Active Braking is turned off
manually.
WARNING!
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not intended to
avoid a collision on its own, nor can FCW detect every
type of potential collision. The driver has the respon-
sibility to avoid a collision by controlling the vehicle
via braking and steering. Failure to follow this warn-
ing could lead to serious injury or death.

Turning FCW On Or Off

The Forward Collision menu setting is located in the
Uconnect settings.
NOTE: The default status of FCW is "Warning + Active
Braking," this allows the system to warn you of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front of you and enable the
active braking.
• Changing the FCW status to "off" deactivates the sys-
tem, so no warning or active braking will be available in
case of a possible collision
