•
When the FCW is “off”, this prevents the system from
warning the driver of a possible collision with the
vehicle in front. If the FCW is set to “off”, “FCW OFF”
will be displayed in the instrument cluster display.
•
When FCW status is set to “Only Warning”, this pre-
vents 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.
•
When FCW status is set to “Warning and Braking”,
this allows the system to warn the driver of a pos-
sible collision with the vehicle in front using audible/
visual warnings and it applies autonomous braking.
•
The system will retain the last setting selected by
the driver after ignition shutdown.
FCW Braking Status And Sensitivity
The FCW Sensitivity and Active Braking status are pro-
grammable through the Uconnect system
page 201.
•
Far
○ When the sensitivity of FCW is set to the “Far”
setting, this allows the system to warn the driver
of a possible more distant collision with the
vehicle in front using audible/visual warnings.
○ More cautious drivers that do not mind frequent
warnings may prefer this setting.
NOTE:
The “Far” setting may result in a greater number of
FCW possible collision warnings experienced.
•
Medium
○ When the sensitivity of FCW is set to the
“Medium” setting, this allows the system to warn
the driver of a possible collision with the vehicle
in front using audible/visual warnings.
•
Near
○ When the sensitivity of FCW is set to the “Near”
setting, this allows the system to warn the driver
of a possible closer collision with the vehicle in
front using audible/visual warnings.
○ This setting provides less reaction time than the
“Far” and “Medium” settings, which allows for a
more dynamic driving experience.
○ More dynamic or aggressive drivers that want to
avoid frequent warnings may prefer this setting.
NOTE:
The “Near” setting may result in a lesser number of
FCW possible collision warnings experienced.
FCW Limited Warning
If the instrument cluster displays “ACC/FCW Limited
Functionality” or “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean
Front Windshield” momentarily, there may be a condi-
tion that limits FCW functionality. Although the vehicle
is still drivable under normal conditions, the active
braking may not be fully available. Once the condition
that limited the system performance is no longer pres-
ent, the system will return to its full performance state.
If the problem persists, see an authorized dealer.
Service FCW Warning
If the system turns off, and the instrument cluster
displays:
•
ACC/FCW Unavailable Service Required
•
Cruise/FCW Unavailable Service Required
This indicates there is an internal system fault.
Although the vehicle is still drivable under normal condi-
tions, have the system checked by an authorized
dealer.
TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING
SYSTEM (TPMS)
The Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) will warn
the driver of a low tire pressure based on the vehicle
recommended cold placard pressure.
NOTE:
The alert warning on the cluster will stay on until the
tire is inflated to the placard pressure.
The tire pressure will vary with temperature by approxi-
mately 1 psi (7 kPa) for every 12°F (6.5°C). This means
that when the outside temperature decreases, the tire
pressure will decrease. Tire pressure should always be set
based on cold inflation tire pressure. This is defined as
the tire pressure after the vehicle has not been driven for
at least three hours, or driven less than 1 mile (1.6 km)
after a three hour period. The cold tire inflation pressure
must not exceed the maximum inflation pressure molded
into the tire sidewall. The tire pressure will also increase
as the vehicle is driven. This is normal and there should
be no adjustment for this increased pressure.
See page 320 on how to properly inflate the vehi-
cle’s tires.
The TPMS will warn the driver of a low tire pressure if
the tire pressure falls below the low-pressure warning
limit for any reason, including low temperature effects
and natural pressure loss through the tire.
The TPMS will continue to warn the driver of low tire
pressure as long as the condition exists, and will not
turn off until the tire pressure is at or above the recom-
mended cold placard pressure. Once the low tire pres-
sure warning (Tire Pressure Monitoring System Warning
Light) illuminates, you must increase the tire pressure
to the recommended cold placard pressure in order for
the TPMS Warning Light to turn off.
