Driving and Operating 219
FCA warnings will not occur unless the FCA
system detects a vehicle ahead. When a
vehicle is detected, the vehicle ahead
indicator will display green. Vehicles may
not be detected on curves, highway exit
ramps, or hills, due to poor visibility; or if a
vehicle ahead is partially blocked by
pedestrians or other objects. FCA will not
detect another vehicle ahead until it is
completely in the driving lane.
{
Warning
FCA does not provide a warning to help
avoid a crash, unless it detects a vehicle.
FCA may not detect a vehicle ahead if
the FCA sensor is blocked by dirt, snow,
or ice, or if the windshield is damaged.
It may also not detect a vehicle on
winding or hilly roads, or in conditions
that can limit visibility such as fog, rain,
or snow, or if the headlamps or
windshield are not cleaned or in proper
condition. Keep the windshield,
headlamps, and FCA sensors clean and in
good repair.
Collision Alert
If Head-Up Display (HUD) is not equipped,
when your vehicle approaches another
detected vehicle too rapidly, the red FCA
display will flash on the windshield.
If Head-Up Display (HUD) is equipped and
the screen is closed, when your vehicle
approaches another detected vehicle too
rapidly, the HUD with the integrated RLAD
can display red spots reflected in the
windshield.
If Head-Up Display (HUD) is equipped and
the screen is open, when your vehicle
approaches another detected vehicle too
rapidly, the HUD can display indicator on
the screen as the FCA display.
Also, eight rapid high-pitched beeps will
sound from the front. When this Collision
Alert occurs, the brake system may prepare
for driver braking to occur more rapidly
which can cause a brief, mild deceleration.
Continue to apply the brake pedal as
needed. Cruise control may be disengaged
when the Collision Alert occurs.
