NOTE:

• If the “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar

Sensor” message occurs frequently (e.g. more than

once on every trip) without any snow, rain, mud, or

other obstruction, have the radar sensor realigned at

your authorized dealer.

• Installing a snow plow, front-end protector, an after-

market grille or modifying the grille is not recom-

mended. Doing so may block the sensor and inhibit

ACC/FCW operation.

“Clean Front Windshield” Warning
The “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front

Windshield” warning will display and also a chime will

indicate when conditions temporarily limit system per-

formance. This most often occurs at times of poor visibil-

ity, such as in snow or heavy rain and fog. The ACC

system may also become temporarily blinded due to

obstructions, such as mud, dirt, or ice on windshield and

fog on the inside of glass. In these cases, the DID will

display “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front

Windshield” and the system will have degraded perfor-

mance.
The “ACC/FCW Limited Functionality Clean Front

Windshield” message can sometimes be displayed while

driving in adverse weather conditions. The ACC/FCW

system will recover after the vehicle has left these areas.

Under rare conditions, when the camera is not tracking

any vehicles or objects in its path this warning may

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

examine the windshield and the camera located on the

back side of the inside rear view mirror. They may

require cleaning or removal of an obstruction.
