NOTE:
When the FCW is "on", this allows the
system to warn the driver of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front.
When the FCW is "off", this prevents the
system from warning the driver of a
possible collision with the vehicle in front.
If the FCW is set to "off", "FCW OFF" will
be displayed in the instrument cluster
display.
When FCW status is set to "Only
Warning", this prevents the system from
providing limited active braking, or addi-
tional brake support if the driver is not
braking adequately in the event of a poten-
tial frontal collision.
When FCW status is set to "Warning and
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.
The system will retain the last setting
selected by the driver after ignition shut-
down.

FCW Braking Status And Sensitivity
The FCW Sensitivity and Active Braking
status are programmable through the Ucon-
nect System. Refer to "Uconnect Settings"
in "Multimedia" in the Owner's Manual for
further information.
Far
When the sensitivity of FCW is set to
the "Far" setting and the system
status is "Only Warning", this allows
the system to warn the driver of a
possible more distant collisions with
the vehicle in front using audible/
visual warnings.
More cautious drivers that do not mind
frequent warnings may prefer this
setting.
Medium
When the sensitivity of FCW is set to
the "Medium" setting and the system
status is "Only Warning", this allows
the system to warn the driver of a
possible collision with the vehicle in
front using audible/visual warnings.
Near
When the sensitivity of FCW is set to
the "Near" setting and the system
status is "Only Warning", this allows
the system to warn the driver of a
possible closer collisions with the
vehicle in front using audible/visual
warnings.
This setting provides less reaction time
than
the
"Far"
and
settings, which allows for a more
dynamic driving experience.
More dynamic or aggressive drivers
that want to avoid frequent warnings
may prefer this setting.
FCW Limited Warning
If the instrument cluster display reads "ACC/
FCW Limited Functionality" or "ACC/FCW
Limited Functionality Clean Front Wind-
shield" momentarily, there may be a condi-
tion that limits FCW functionality. Although
the vehicle is still driveable under normal
conditions, the active braking may not be
fully available. Once the condition that
limited the system performance is no longer
"Medium"
