Forward Collision Warning — If Equipped
The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) feature
can be can be set to Far, set to Near or turned

experience. To change FCW status press and
release the SELECT button until a check-mark
appears next to the feature showing the system
has been activated or the check-mark is re-
moved showing the system has been deacti-

aligned will result in the BSM not operating

tion and the driver’s door is opened. To make
