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.
Turning FCW ON Or OFF
The forward collision menu setting is located in the
Uconnect® settings.
NOTE: The default status of FCW is “Warning + Active
Braking,” this allows the system to warn you of a
possible collision with the vehicle in front of you and
enable the active braking.
• Changing the FCW status to “Off” deactivates the
system, so no warning or active braking will be
available in case of a possible collision
• 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.
Changing the status of the system is only possible with
the vehicle at a complete stop.
NOTE: The FCW system state is not kept in memory
from one key cycle to the next. If the system is turned
OFF, it will turn On when the vehicle is restarted.
