SAFETY
175
When the system determines a collision with the vehicle in
front of you is no longer probable, the warning message will
be deactivated.
NOTE:
• The minimum speed for FCW activation is 3 mph (5 km/h).
• The FCW alerts may be triggered on objects other than
vehicles such as guard rails or sign posts based on the
course prediction. This is expected and is a part of normal
FCW activation and functionality.
• It is unsafe to test the FCW system. To prevent such misuse
of the system, after four Active Braking events within a
key cycle, the Active Braking portion of FCW will be deac
-
tivated until the next key cycle.
• The FCW system is intended for on-road use only. If the
vehicle is taken off-road, the FCW system should be deac
-
tivated to prevent unnecessary warnings to the surround
-
ings.
FCW Braking Status And Sensitivity
The FCW sensitivity and Active Braking status are program
-
mable through the Uconnect System. Refer to “Uconnect
Settings” in “Multimedia” in the Owner's Manual for further
information.
• Far
• When the sensitivity of FCW is set to the “Far” setting
and the system status is “Warning and Braking”, this
allows the system to warn the driver of a possible more
distant collisions with the vehicle in front using
audible/visual warnings.
• More cautious drivers that do not mind frequent warn
-
ings may prefer this setting.
WARNING!
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not intended 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 braking and steering. Failure to follow this
warning could lead to serious injury or death.
