2021 DODGE CHALLENGER cruise control

188SAFETY
When the system determines a collision with the
vehicle in front of you is no longer probable, the
warning message will be deactivated Úpage 311.
NOTE:
The minimum speed for FCW activation is
5 mph (10 km/h).
The FCW alerts may be triggered on objects
other than vehicles such as guardrails or sign
posts based on the course prediction. This is
expected and is a part of normal FCW activation
and functionality.
The FCW system is intended for on-road use
only. If the vehicle is taken off-road, the FCW
system should be deactivated to prevent unnec -
essary warnings to the surroundings.
Turning FCW On Or Off
NOTE:The default status of FCW is on; this allows the
system to warn you of a possible collision with the
vehicle in front of you.
The Forward Collision activation/deactivation is
located in "Uconnect Settings" under "Safety And
Driving Assistance". Forward Collision can be
checked or unchecked.

When FCW is selected off, there will be an "FCW OFF"
icon that appears in the instrument cluster display.

Changing the FCW status to off prevents the
system from warning you of a possible collision
with the vehicle in front of you.
NOTE:The FCW system’s default state is on. The FCW
system state is kept in memory from one ignition
cycle to the next. If the system is turned off, it will
remain off when the vehicle is restarted.
Changing FCW Status
The FCW Sensitivity settings are programmable
through the Uconnect system Ú page 120.
The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting in the
“On” setting. This allows the system to warn you of
a possible collision with the vehicle in front of you
when you are farther away and it applies limited
braking. This gives you the most reaction time to
avoid a possible collision. Changing the FCW status to the “Near” setting,
allows the system to warn you of a possible
collision with the vehicle in front of you when you
are much closer. This setting provides less
reaction time than the “Far” setting, which allows
for a more dynamic driving experience.
NOTE:
The system will retain the last setting selected
by the driver after ignition shut down.
FCW may not react to irrelevant objects such as
overhead objects, ground reflections, objects
not in the path of the vehicle, stationary objects
that are far away, oncoming traffic, or leading
vehicles with the same or higher rate of speed.
FCW will be disabled like ACC, with the unavail
-
able screens.
Service FCW Warning
If the system turns off, and the instrument cluster
display reads:
ACC/FCW Unavailable Service Required
Cruise/FCW Unavailable Service Required
This indicates there is an internal system fault.
Although the vehicle is still drivable under normal
conditions, have the system checked by an
authorized dealer.
WARNING!
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) is not intended
to avoid a collision on its own, nor can FCW
detect every type of potential collision. The driver
has the responsibility to avoid a collision by
controlling the vehicle via braking and steering.
Failure to follow this warning could lead to
serious injury or death.
