Forward Collision Warning (Fcw) With Mitigation - Jeep GRAND CHEROKEE 2023 Owner's Manual

Blind Spot Modes
Three selectable modes of operation are available in the
Uconnect system page 168.
Ú
Blind Spot Alert Lights Only
When operating in Blind Spot Alert mode, the BSM system
will provide a visual alert in the appropriate side view
mirror based on a detected object. However, when the
system is operating in Rear Cross Path (RCP) mode, the
system will respond with both visual and audible alerts
when a detected object is present. Whenever an audible
alert is requested, the radio is muted.
Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime
When operating in Blind Spot Alert Lights/Chime mode,
the BSM system will provide a visual alert in the
appropriate side view mirror based on a detected object.
If the turn signal is then activated, and it corresponds to
an alert present on that side of the vehicle, an audible
chime will also be sounded. Whenever a turn signal and
detected object are present on the same side at the same
time, both the visual and audible alerts will be issued. In
addition to the audible alert the radio (if on) will also be
muted.
NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is requested by the BSM
system, the radio is also muted.
When the system is in RCP, the system shall respond with
both visual and audible alerts when a detected object is
present. Whenever an audible alert is requested, the radio
is also muted. Turn/hazard signal status is ignored; the
RCP state always requests the chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off, there will be no visual
or audible alerts from either the BSM or RCP systems.
NOTE:
The BSM system will store the current operating mode
when the vehicle is shut off. Each time the vehicle is
started, the previously stored mode will be recalled and
used.

ITH ITIGATION
The FCW with Mitigation system provides the driver with
audible warnings, visual warnings (within the instrument
cluster display), and may apply limited braking to warn the
driver when it detects a potential frontal collision. The
warnings and limited braking are intended to provide the
driver with enough time to react, avoid or mitigate the
potential collision.
NOTE:
If either FCW or Pedestrian Emergency Braking (PEB) are
turned off, the FCW OFF Indicator Light will illuminate. The
FCW OFF Indicator Light will only shut off if both features
are turned on and active braking is enabled.
NOTE:
FCW monitors the information from the forward looking
sensors as well as the Electronic Brake Controller (EBC), to
calculate the probability of a forward collision. When the
system determines that a forward collision is probable, the
driver will be provided with audible and visual warnings
and may provide a brake jerk warning. If the driver does
not take action based upon these progressive warnings,
then the system will provide a limited level of active
braking to help slow the vehicle and mitigate the potential
forward collision.
