When the system determines a collision with the vehicle

in front of you is no longer probable, the warning

message will be deactivated.
NOTE:

• The minimum speed for FCW activation is 1 mph

(2 km/h).

• The FCW alerts may be triggered on objects other than

vehicles such as guard rails or sign posts based on the

course prediction. This is expected and is a part of

normal FCW activation and functionality.

• It is unsafe to test the FCW system. To prevent such

misuse of the system, after four Active Braking events

within an ignition cycle, the Active Braking portion of

FCW will be deactivated until the next ignition cycle.

• The FCW system is intended for on-road use only. If

the vehicle is taken off-road, the FCW system should

be deactivated to prevent unnecessary warnings to the

surroundings.

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.
