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.

When the system determines a collision with the vehicle

in front of you is no longer probable, the warning

message will be deactivated.
