Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) / Forward Collision Warning (FCW)†9
The FCA is designed to help alert the driver and, under certain conditions if necessary, apply emergency braking when rapidly
approaching a vehicle that is slowing down, braking or stopped . Initially, the Forward Collision Warning (FCW ) will provide a warning
when it detects a potential collision with a vehicle in front and emit an audible warning and visual alert on the instrument cluster .
Adjust the alert settings (Early, Normal, Late) in the User Settings . To turn the FCA /FCW off, go to User Settings again and turn off .
If the system detects that the collision risk increases, the Forward Collision-Avoidance Assist (FCA) automatically applies the brakes
to reduce your speed, helping minimize the effects of a possible collision .
FCA can be turned ON in the User Settings menu on the Instrument Cluster display . The FCA /FCW will become active when the:
• Engine Start /Stop button is ON• Vehicle is traveling faster than 5 mph • Electronic Stability Control (ESC) is ON
REMINDERS:
• The FCA /FCW will be activated by default when the ignition is cycled ON, even when previously set to OFF
• The FCA /FCW will not operate when the vehicle is traveling more than approximately 50 mph
• If the FCA is operating and the ESC (Electronic Stability Control) is turned off, the FCA system is automatically turned off
• When FCA system is off, the FCA warning indicator is on in the Instrument Cluster
