Changing FCW Status
The FCW feature has three settings and can be changed within the Uconnect® System:
• Far
• Near
• Off
NOTE:
The FCW settings can only be changed when the vehicle is in PARK.
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.
This setting is designed to provide early warnings per NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety
Administration) recommendations.
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.
Off
Changing the FCW status to "Off" prevents the system from warning you of a potential frontal
collision.
NOTE:
• If FCW is set to "Off", "FCW OFF" will be displayed in the EVIC.
• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
