160 SAFETY
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 the Active
Braking portion of FCW will be deactivated for
the first 20 seconds from braking actuation.

The FCW system is intended for on-road use
only. If the vehicle is taken off-road, the FCW
system should be deactivated to prevent
unnecessary warnings to the surroundings.

FCW may not react to irrelevant objects such
as overhead objects, ground reflections,
objects not in the path of the vehicle,
stationary objects that are far away,
oncoming traffic, or leading vehicles with the
same or higher rate of speed.

FCW will be disabled like ACC, with the
unavailable screens

page 274.
Turning FCW On or Off
The FCW button is located in the Uconnect
display in the control settings
Ú
page 89.

To turn the FCW system on, press the forward
collision button once.

To turn the FCW system off, press the forward
collision button once.
NOTE:

Changing the FCW status to “Off” deactivates
the system, so no warning or active braking
will be available in case of a possible colli -
sion.

Changing the FCW status to “Only Warning”
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
maintains the audible and visual warnings.

When FCW status is set to “Warning and
Braking”, 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.

The FCW system state is kept in memory from
one ignition position to the next. If the system
is turned off, it will maintain its status in the
next key cycle.
FCW Braking Status And Sensitivity
The FCW Sensitivity and Active Braking status
are programmable through the Uconnect
system
Ú
page 89.

Far

When the sensitivity of FCW is set to the
“Far” setting and the system status is
“Only Warning”, this allows the system to
warn the driver of a possible more distant
collision with the vehicle in front using
audible/visual warnings.
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.
