How It Works

At 10 mph or higher, if the radar sensor in the front grille detects a vehicle in front of

you and the system determines a collision is likely, the system warns you with the

following visual and audible alerts:

FCW may not activate under certain conditions. See your Owner’s Manual for more information.

Short

Normal

Long

When the FCW distance is set to Short:

• the heads-up light near the windshield flashes continuously

• BRAKE flashes continuously

• a beep sounds continuously

until you take preventive action.

When the FCW distance is set to Normal or Long:

• The heads-up light near the windshield flashes twice.

• If you do not take action to prevent a collision and the distance to the other

vehicle becomes sufficiently close, BRAKE flashes on the MID, the heads-up

light flashes, and a beep sounds continuously until you take preventive action.

You can also change vehicle settings using the

multi-information display (see

page 6

).
