The warnings and limited autonomous braking are intended to provide the driver with enough time to react, avoid or mitigate the potential collision.
  • Page 37 OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE NOTE: This setting gives you the most reaction time. Near • Changing the FCW status to the “Near” setting, 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 dynamic driving experience.
  • Page 38 OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE WARNING! • Leaving the Electronic or Adaptive Speed Control system on when not in use is dangerous. You could accidentally set the system or cause it to go faster than you want. You could lose control and have a collision. Always leave the Electronic or Adaptive Speed Control system off when you are not using it.
