Forward Collision Warning (FCW) With
Mitigation Operation
The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system
with mitigation provides the driver with audible
warnings, visual warnings (within the instru-
ment cluster display), and may apply a brake
jerk to warn the driver when it detects a poten-
tial 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:
FCW monitors the information from the forward
looking sensors as well as the Electronic Stabil-
ity Control (ESC) system, to calculate the prob-
ability of a forward collision. When the system
determines that a forward collision is probable,
the driver will be provided with audible and
visual warnings.
Turning FCW On Or Off
The forward collision button is located in the
Uconnect display in the controls settings. When
FCW is selected "off", there will be an "FCW
OFF" icon that appears in the instrument cluster
display.
NOTE:
• The default status of FCW is “on”, this allows
the system to warn you of a possible collision
with the vehicle in front of you.
• Changing the FCW status to “off” prevents the
system from warning you of a possible colli-
sion with the vehicle in front of you. If FCW is
set to off, “FCW OFF” will be displayed in the
instrument cluster display.
Changing FCW Status
The FCW feature has two settings and can be
changed within the Uconnect System Screen:
• Far
• Near
Refer to your Owner’s Manual for further details.
WARNING!
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not in-
tended 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 vehicle via brak-
ing and steering. Failure to follow this warn-
ing could lead to serious injury or death.
