Jeep 2013 Grand Cherokee - User Guide - Manual (Page 35)

Mode (ACC Only)
• If desired, the Adaptive Cruise Control mode can be turned off and the system can
be operated as a standard (fixed speed) Cruise Control. When in the standard
(fixed speed) Cruise Control mode the distance setting feature will be disabled and
the system will maintain the speed you set.
• To change between the different cruise modes, press the MODE button when the
system is in either the OFF, READY, or SET state. Pressing of the MODE button in
any state will result in changing to the new Mode in the OFF state.
• Refer to your Owner's Manual on the DVD for further information.
Forward Collision Warning
• The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system provides the driver with audible
and visual warnings (within the EVIC) when it detects a potential frontal collision.
The warnings are intended to provide the driver with enough time to react and
avoid the potential collision.
Changing FCW Status
• The FCW feature has three settings and can be changed within the Electronic
Vehicle Information Center (EVIC):
• Far
• Near
• Off
NOTE:
The FCW settings can only be changed when the vehicle is in PARK.
Far
• The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting.
• The far setting provides warnings for potential collisions more distant in front of
the vehicle, allowing the driver to have the most reaction time to avoid a collision.
• This setting is designed to provide early warnings per NHTSA (National Highway
Traffic Safety Administration) recommendations.
• More cautious drivers that do not mind frequent warnings may prefer this setting.
NOTE:
This setting gives you the most reaction time.
