Driving and Operating
Collision Alert
When the vehicle is started, this
series of red lights will come on to
indicate the system is operating.
When your vehicle approaches
another vehicle too rapidly, the red
lights will flash on the windshield.
Either eight beeps will sound from
the front, or both sides of the Safety
Alert Seat will pulse five times. If a
collision alert occurs when cruise
control is activated, cruise control is
disengaged.
Tailgating Alert
The vehicle-ahead indicator will
display amber when you are
following a vehicle ahead much too
closely.
Selecting the Alert Timing
With Adaptive Cruise Control
Without Adaptive Cruise Control
Press the collision alert/following
gap button on the steering wheel to
set the FCA timing to far, medium,
near, or on some vehicles, off. The
first button press shows the current
setting on the DIC. Additional button
presses will change this setting.
The chosen setting will remain until
it is changed and will affect the
timing of both the Collision Alert
and the Tailgating Alert features.
