Changing Fcw And Active Braking Status - Jeep 2015 Cherokee Operating Information Manual

To turn the FCW system back ON, press the
forward collision button again to turn the system
ON (LED turns off).
• Changing the FCW status to "Off" prevents
the system from warning you of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front of you.
• Changing the FCW sensitivity - Near vs. Far.
Far warns the driver of a possible collision
earlier and Near warns the driver later.
• Changing the Active Braking status to "Off"
prevents the system from providing limited
active braking, or additional brake support if
the driver is not braking adequately in the
event of a potential frontal collision, but main-
tains the audible and visual warnings.
NOTE:
The FCW system state is kept in memory
from one key cycle to the next. If the system
is turned OFF, it will remain off when the
vehicle is restarted.
Changing FCW And Active Braking
Status
The FCW Sensitivity And Active Braking Set-
tings are programmable through the Uconnect®
System. Refer to "Uconnect® Settings" in "Un-
derstanding Your Instrument Panel" for further
information.
The default status of FCW is the "Far" setting
and the Active Braking is the "On" setting, this
allows the system to warn you of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front of you when
you are farther away and it applies limited
braking. This gives you the most reaction time
to avoid a possible collision.
Changing the FCW status to the "Near" setting,
allows the system to warn you of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front of you when
you are much closer. This setting provides less
reaction time than the "Far" setting, which al-
lows for a more dynamic driving experience.
NOTE:
• The system will retain the last setting
selected by the driver after ignition shut
down.
• FCW may not react to irrelevant objects
such as overhead objects, ground reflec-
tions, objects not in the path of the car,
stationary objects that are far away, on-
coming traffic, or leading vehicles with
the same or higher rate of speed.
• FCW will be disabled like ACC, with the
unavailable screens.
