The Forward Collision Alert (FCA) system provides an
audible and visual warning if you approach a vehicle too
rapidly. FCA also provides a visual warning with no
audible warning if you are following another vehicle
much too closely. FCA uses the Adaptive Cruise Control
radar to detect a vehicle directly ahead, in your path,
within a distance of 328 ft (100 m).
CAUTION:
{
FCA is only a warning system and does not
apply the brakes. FCA is not designed to warn
the driver of pedestrians or animals. When you
are approaching a vehicle or object, FCA may
not provide you with enough time to avoid a
collision. Your complete attention is always
required while driving and you should be ready
to take action and apply the brakes. For more
information, see Defensive Driving on page 4-2.

visual warnings. See Head-Up Display (HUD) on
page 3-41 for more information.
The Forward Collision Alert
(FCA) controls are located
