The “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor”

message can sometimes be displayed while driving in

highly reflective areas (i.e. tunnels with reflective tiles, or

ice and snow). The ACC system will recover after the

vehicle has left these areas. Under rare conditions, when

the radar is not tracking any vehicles or objects in its path

this warning may temporarily occur.
NOTE:

If the “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar

Sensor” warning is active Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise

Control is still available. For additional information refer

to “Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode” in this

section.
If weather conditions are not a factor, the driver should

examine the sensor. It may require cleaning or removal of

an obstruction. The sensor is located in the center of the

vehicle behind the lower grille.

To keep the ACC System operating properly, it is impor-

tant to note the following maintenance items:

• Always keep the sensor clean. Carefully wipe the

sensor lens with a soft cloth. Be cautious not to damage

the sensor lens.

• Do not remove any screws from the sensor. Doing so

could cause an ACC system malfunction or failure and

require a sensor realignment.

• If the sensor or front end of the vehicle is damaged due

to a collision, see your authorized dealer for service.

• Do not attach or install any accessories near the sensor,

including transparent material or aftermarket grilles. Do-

ing so could cause an ACC system failure or malfunction.

When the condition that deactivated the system is no

longer present, the system will return to the “Adaptive

Cruise Control Off” state and will resume function by

simply reactivating it.
