‘EARLY’ condition feels too
sensitive, change it into
‘NORMAL’. When the vehi-
cle ahead suddenly stops,
the warning may seem to
activate later even if the
‘EARLY’ condition was
selected.

Driving your vehicle
When driving in stop-and-go traffic,
and a stopped vehicle in front of you
merges out of the lane, the FCA sys-
tem may not immediately detect the
new vehicle that is now in front of
you. In this case, you must maintain
a safe braking distance, and if nec-
essary, depress the brake pedal to
reduce your driving speed in order to
maintain a safe distance.- Recognizing the vehicle
If the vehicle in front of you has cargo
that extends rearward from the cab,
or when the vehicle in front of you
has higher ground clearance, addi-
tional special attention is required.
The FCA system may not be able to
recognize the cargo extending from
the vehicle. In these instances, you
must maintain a safe braking dis-
tance from the rearmost object, and
if necessary, depress the brake
pedal to reduce your driving speed in
order to maintain distance.

Do not use the FCA system
when towing a vehicle. Cancel
the FCA in the User Settings

may adversely affect your
safety.
Use extreme caution when the vehicle in front of you has
cargo that extends rearward
from the cab, or when the
vehicle in front of you has
higher ground clearance.
The FCA system is designed to detect and monitor the
vehicle ahead through camera
recognition. It is not designed
