Maximum 155 (250)
When the speed is outside the specified
limits, the system automatically disables
without turning on the corresponding
warning light on the instrument cluster.
System Status
The driver can adjust FCW sensitivity
or enable/disable the other emergency
braking by touching "Forward Collision
Warning" soft-key on the "Apps" page
or in the "Settings" list of the "Vehicle"
page.
Setting options are described in the
following paragraph.
When FCW status for some reason
changes in off, the corresponding amber
warning light on instrument cluster will
light on.
This warning light informs the driver that
FCW is disabled. This warning light will
light even when the activation of another
driver assistance function or drive mode
disables the FCW.
NOTE:
The FCW system setting chosen by the
User is kept in memory at every key-off.
At the next key-on, if the function is
in the not available (OFF) status, the
relative telltale is displayed on the
instrument cluster.
System Setting
FCW warning can be set in "Only
warning" (default mode), "Warning &
Active Braking" or "Off".
When also the active braking function
(“Forward Collision Warning Active
Braking”) setting is on, the system
warns you of a possible collision with
the vehicle in front of you when you
are farther away and it applies limited
braking. When in "Far" setting, this gives
you the most reaction time to avoid a
possible collision.
Changing the sensitivity status to the
“Near” setting, allows the system to
warn you of a possible collision with
the vehicle in front of you when you are
much closer. This setting provides less
reaction time than the “Warning & Active
Braking” sensitivity setting, which allows
for a more dynamic driving experience.
"Med" is the intermediate status
between the two described above.
NOTE:
• The default values shall appear at every
new ignition cycle: Sensitivity = "Med"
and "Active Braking" = on.
• FCW may not react to irrelevant
objects such as objects not in the path
of the car, stationary objects that are
far away, oncoming traffic, on cross
traffic vehicles, or leading vehicles with
the same or higher rate of speed.
• The active braking (autonomous
braking/braking aid) will not engage in
case of potential collision with static
object such as guard rails, walls, etc..
• If PEB setting is present in the setting
list, it can be set on in "warning +
active braking"; if PEB setting is not
present in the setting list, it is always
active.
• If FCW is set off on the MIA screen,
but PEB setting is in "warning + active
braking", the active brake will still be
active.
Changing the FCW status to “Off”
prevents the system from providing
limited autonomous braking or additional
brake support if the driver is not braking
adequately in the event of a potential
frontal collision.
