300 Driving and Operating
Following Distance
Indicator
The following distance to a
moving vehicle ahead in your
path is indicated in following
time in seconds on the Driver
Information Center (DIC). See
Driver Information Center
(DIC)0136. The minimum
following time is 0.5 seconds
away. If there is no vehicle
detected ahead, or the vehicle
ahead is out of sensor range,
dashes will be displayed.
Unnecessary Alerts
FCA may provide unnecessary
alerts for turning vehicles,
vehicles in other lanes, objects
that are not vehicles,
or shadows. These alerts are
normal operation and the
vehicle does not need service.
Cleaning the System
If the FCA system does not
seem to operate properly, this
may correct the issue:
.Clean the outside of the
windshield in front of the
rearview mirror.
.Clean the entire front of the
vehicle.
.Clean the headlamps.
Automatic Emergency
Braking (AEB)
If equipped, the AEB system
may help avoid or reduce the
harm caused by front-end
crashes. AEB also includes
Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA).
When the system detects a
vehicle in the path ahead that
is traveling in the same
direction, and that you may
crash into, it can provide a
boost to braking,
or automatically brake the
vehicle. This can help avoid or
lessen the severity of crashes
when driving in a forward gear.
Depending on the situation,
the vehicle may automatically
brake moderately or hard. This
Automatic Emergency Braking
can only occur if a vehicle is detected. Vehicle detection is
shown by the Forward
Collision Alert (FCA) vehicle
ahead indicator being lit. See
Forward Collision Alert (FCA)
System
0297.
The system works when
driving in a forward gear
between 8 km/h (5 mph) and
80 km/h (50 mph), or on
vehicles with Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC), above 4 km/h
(2 mph). It can detect vehicles
up to approximately 60 m
(197 ft).
{Warning
AEB is an emergency crash
preparation feature and is
not designed to avoid
crashes. Do not rely on AEB
to brake the vehicle. AEB will
not brake outside of its
operating speed range and
only responds to detected
vehicles. (Continued)

Driving and Operating 303
Warning (Continued)
Be ready to take action and
apply the brakes. For more
information, see Defensive
Driving0230. Keep the
windshield, headlamps, and
FPB sensor clean and in
good repair.
FPB can be set to Off, Alert,
or Alert and Brake through
vehicle settings. To view
available settings from the
infotainment screen, touch
Settings > Vehicle > Collision/
Detection Systems.
Detecting the Pedestrian
Ahead
FPB alerts and automatic
braking will not occur unless
the FPB system detects a pedestrian. When a pedestrian
that may enter the vehicle’s
forward path is detected, the
pedestrian ahead indicator will
display amber.
Front Pedestrian Alert
With Head-Up Display
Without Head-Up Display
When the vehicle approaches
a pedestrian ahead too rapidly,
the red FPB alert display will
flash on the windshield. Eight
rapid high-pitched beeps will
sound from the front, or both
sides of the Safety Alert Seat will pulse five times. When this
Pedestrian Alert occurs, the
brake system may prepare for
driver braking to occur more
rapidly which can cause a
brief, mild deceleration.
Continue to apply the brake
pedal as needed. Cruise
control may be disengaged
when the Front Pedestrian
Alert occurs.
Automatic Braking
If FPB detects it is about to
crash into a pedestrian
directly ahead, and the brakes
have not been applied, FPB
may automatically brake
moderately or brake hard. This
can help to avoid some very
low speed pedestrian crashes
or reduce pedestrian injury.
FPB can automatically brake
to detected pedestrians
between 8 km/h (5 mph) and
80 km/h (50 mph). Automatic
braking levels may be reduced
under certain conditions, such
as higher speeds.

Driving and Operating 315
If equipped, the following
driver assistance features
should be turned off when
towing a trailer:
.Adaptive Cruise
Control (ACC)
.Super Cruise Control
.Park Assist
.Automatic Parking
Assist (APA)
.Reverse Automatic
Braking (RAB)
If equipped, the following
driver assistance features
should be turned to alert or
off when towing a trailer:
.Automatic Emergency
Braking (AEB)
.Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA)
.Front Pedestrian
Braking (FPB)
If equipped with Lane Change
Alert (LCA), the LCA detection
zones that extend back from
the side of the vehicle do not
move further back when a trailer is towed. Use caution
while changing lanes when
towing a trailer.
If equipped with Rear Cross
Traffic Alert (RCTA), use
caution while backing up when
towing a trailer, as the RCTA
detection zones that extend
out from the back of the
vehicle do not move further
back when a trailer is towed.
{Warning
To prevent serious injury or
death from carbon monoxide
(CO), when towing a trailer:
.Do not drive with the
liftgate, trunk/hatch,
or rear-most
window open.
.Fully open the air outlets
on or under the
instrument panel.
(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
.Adjust the climate control
system to a setting that
brings in only outside air.
See“Climate Control
Systems” in the Index.
For more information about
carbon monoxide, see
Engine Exhaust 0256.
Towing a trailer requires
experience. The combination
of the vehicle and trailer is
longer and not as responsive
as the vehicle itself. Become
familiar to the handling and
braking by driving on a level
road surface before driving on
public roads.
The trailer structure, the tires,
and the brakes must be all be
rated to carry the intended
cargo. Inadequate trailer
equipment can cause the
combination to operate in an
unexpected or unsafe manner.
Before driving, inspect all
trailer hitch parts and
