Changing FCW And Active Braking Status

The FCW Sensitivity And Active Braking Settings are
programmable through the Uconnect® System. Refer to
“Uconnect® Settings” in “Understanding Your Instru-
ment Panel” for further information.

The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting and the
Active Braking is the “On” setting, this allows the system
to warn you of a possible collision with the vehicle in
front of you when you are farther away and it applies
limited braking. This gives you the most reaction time to
avoid a possible collision.

Changing the FCW status to the “Near” setting, allows
the system to warn you of a possible collision with the
vehicle in front of you when you are much closer. This
setting provides less reaction time than the “Far” setting,
which allows for a more dynamic driving experience.

NOTE:

• The system will retain the last setting selected by the

driver after ignition shut down.

• FCW may not react to irrelevant objects such as

overhead objects, ground reflections, objects not in the
path of the car, stationary objects that are far away,
oncoming traffic, or leading vehicles with the same or
higher rate of speed.

• FCW will be disabled like ACC, with the unavailable

screens.

FCW Limited Warning

If the system turns off, and the EVIC displays “ACC/
FCW Limited Functionality” or “ACC/FCW Limited
Functionality Clean Front Windshield” momentarily,
there may be a condition that limits FCW functionality.
