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

NOTE:

The default status of FCW is “On”, this allows

the system to warn you of a possible collision with the

vehicle in front of you.
The forward collision button is located on the switch

panel below the Uconnect® display.
To turn the FCW system OFF, push the forward collision

button once to turn the system OFF (led turns on).

To turn the FCW system back ON, push the forward

collision button again to turn the system ON (led turns

off).
Changing the FCW status to “Off” prevents the system

from warning you of a possible collision with the vehicle

in front of you.
Changing the Active Braking 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.
NOTE:

The FCW system state is kept in memory from

one ignition cycle to the next. If the system is turned OFF,

it will remain off when the vehicle is restarted.
