The forward collision button is located in the Uconnect
display in the controls settings.
To turn the FCW system OFF, press the forward collision
button once to turn the system OFF.
To turn the FCW system back on, press the forward
collision button again to turn the system on.
Changing the FCW status to “OFF” prevents the system
from warning you of a possible collision with the vehicle in
front of you.
NOTE:
The FCW system state is kept in memory from one
ignition 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 Settings are
programmable through the Uconnect System. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” for further informa-
tion.
The default status of FCW is the “Medium” setting and the
Active Braking is in the “on” setting. This allows the
system to warn the driver of a possible collision with the
vehicle in front using audible/visual warnings and it
applies autonomous braking.
Changing the FCW status to “Far” setting allows the
system to warn the driver of a possible collision with the
vehicle in front using audible/visual warning when the
latter is at a farther distance than
⬙
Medium
⬙
setting. This
provides the most reaction time to avoid a possible colli-
sion.
Changing the FCW status to the “Near” setting, allows the
system to warn the driver of a possible collision with the
vehicle in front when the distance between the vehicle in
the front is much closer. This setting provides less reaction
time than the “Far” and “Medium” settings, which allows
for a more dynamic driving experience.
Changing the Active Braking status to “off” prevents the
system from providing autonomous braking, or additional
brake support if the driver is not braking adequately in the
event of a potential frontal collision.
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 over-
head objects, ground reflections, objects not in the path
