Forward Collision Warn- ing — If Equipped Near
Far
NOTE:
The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) feature provides an audible and/or visual warning to potential forward colli-
sions. The feature can be can be set to “Far”, or set to “Near”. The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting. This
means the system will warn you of a possible collision with the vehicle in front of you when you are farther away.
This gives you the most reaction time. To change the setting for more dynamic driving, select the “Near” setting. This
warns you of a possible collision when you are much closer to the vehicle in front of you. Forward Collision Warn-
ing (FCW) — Active Brak- ing On
Off
NOTE:
The FCW system includes Advanced Brake Assist (ABA). When this feature is selected, the ABA applies additional
brake pressure when the driver requests insufficient brake pressure to avoid a potential frontal collision. The ABA
system becomes active at 5 mph (8 km/h). To make your selection, press the “Forward Collision Warning Active
Braking” button on the touchscreen, until a check-mark appears next to setting, indicating that the setting had been
selected.
