NOTE:

FCW monitors the information from the forward

looking sensors as well as the Electronic Brake Controller

(EBC), to calculate the probability of a forward collision.

When the system determines that a forward collision is

probable, the driver will be provided with audible and

visual warnings and may provide a brake jerk warning. If

the driver does not take action based upon these progres-

sive warnings, then the system will provide a limited

level of active braking to help slow the vehicle and

mitigate the potential forward collision. If the driver

reacts to the warnings by braking and the system deter-

mines that the driver intends to avoid the collision by

braking but has not applied sufficient brake force, the

system will compensate and provide additional brake

force as required. If a Forward Collision Warning with

Mitigation event begins at a speed below 20 mph

(32 km/h), the system may provide the maximum or

partial braking to mitigate the potential forward colli-

sion. If the Forward Collision Warning with Mitigation

event stops the vehicle completely, the system will hold

the vehicle at standstill for two seconds and then release

the brakes.
