Tire Pressure Monitor System (Tpms) - Jeep CHEROKEE 2017 User Manual

• Changing the FCW status to "off" prevents
the system from warning you of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front of you. If
FCW is set to off, "FCW OFF" will appear
in the instrument cluster display.
Changing FCW Status
The FCW feature has two settings and can be
changed within the Uconnect
Screen:
• Far
• Near
Far
The far setting provides warnings for poten-
tial collisions more distant in front of the
vehicle, allowing the driver to have the most
reaction time to avoid a collision.
More cautious drivers that do not mind fre-
quent warnings may prefer this setting.
NOTE:
This setting gives you the most reaction time.
102
Near
Changing the FCW status to the "Near" set-
ting, 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
System
dynamic driving experience.
More dynamic or aggressive drivers that want
to avoid frequent warnings may prefer this
setting.
NOTE:
Changing the Active Braking status to off
prevents the system from providing autono-
mous braking, or additional brake support if
the driver is not braking adequately in the
event of a potential frontal collision. Active
braking can be turned off in the Uconnect
controls settings.

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 responsibility
to avoid a collision by controlling the ve-
hicle via braking and steering. Failure to
follow this warning could lead to serious
injury or death.

Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)

The Tire Pressure Monitor System (TPMS)
will warn the driver of a low tire pressure
based on the vehicle recommended cold
placard pressure.
The tire pressure will vary with temperature
by approximately 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F
(6.5°C). This means that when the outside
temperature decreases, the tire pressure will
decrease. Tire pressure should always be set

based on cold inflation tire pressure. This is
defined as the tire pressure after the vehicle
has not been driven for at least three hours, or
driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km) after a three
