the frost or ice has melted.
If a service message displays
and the above conditions do
not exist, take the vehicle to

{Warning
There may be instances
where unexpected or
undesired automatic braking
occurs. If this happens,
either press the brake pedal
or firmly press the
accelerator pedal to release
the brakes from the RAB
system. Before releasing the
brakes, check the RVC and
check the area around the
vehicle to make sure it is
safe to proceed.
Unexpected braking events
are possible with a static
installed accessory, such as a
bike rack or hitch-mounted
cargo carrier.
Rear Pedestrian Alert
If equipped, and under certain
conditions, this feature can
provide alerts for a pedestrian
within the system’s range
directly behind the vehicle.
This feature only works in R (Reverse) below 12 km/h
(8 mph), and detects
pedestrians up to 8 m (26 ft)
away during daytime driving.
During nighttime driving,
feature performance is very
limited.
Rear Pedestrian Alert
Indicator

within the system’s range
directly behind the vehicle, this
symbol flashes amber on the
infotainment display, along
with five beeps from the rear,
or if equipped, two pulses
from both sides of the driver
seat. When a pedestrian is
detected close to the vehicle,
the symbol flashes red on the
infotainment display, along
with ten beeps from the rear, or if equipped, seven pulses
from both sides of the
driver seat.
{Warning
Rear Pedestrian Alert does
not automatically brake the
vehicle. It also does not
provide an alert unless it

pedestrians if:
.The pedestrian is not
directly behind the vehicle,
fully visible to the Rear
Vision Camera (RVC),
or standing upright.

FCA warnings will not occur
unless the FCA system
detects a vehicle ahead. When
a vehicle is detected, the
vehicle ahead indicator will
display green. Vehicles may
not be detected on curves,
highway exit ramps, or hills,
due to poor visibility; or if a
vehicle ahead is partially
blocked by pedestrians or
other objects. FCA will not
detect another vehicle ahead
until it is completely in the
driving lane.
{Warning
FCA does not provide a
warning to help avoid a
crash, unless it detects a
vehicle. FCA may not detect
a vehicle ahead if the FCA
sensor is blocked by dirt,
snow, or ice, or if the
windshield is damaged.
It may also not detect a
vehicle on winding or hilly
roads, or in conditions that(Continued)
Warning (Continued)
can limit visibility such as
fog, rain, or snow, or if the
headlamps or windshield are
not cleaned or in proper
condition. Keep the
windshield, headlamps, and
FCA sensors clean and in
good repair.
Collision Alert
With Head-Up Display
Without Head-Up Display When your vehicle approaches
another detected vehicle too
rapidly, the red FCA display
will flash on the windshield.
Also, eight rapid high-pitched
beeps will sound from the
front, or both sides of the
Safety Alert Seat will pulse
five times. When this Collision
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.
Tailgating Alert
The vehicle ahead indicator
will display amber when you
are following a vehicle ahead
much too closely.

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. This is shown by the
FCA vehicle ahead indicator
being lit. See Forward Collision
Alert (FCA) System0326.
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 (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
not brake outside of its
operating speed range and
only responds to detected
vehicles.
AEB may not:
.Detect a vehicle ahead on
winding or hilly roads.
.Detect all vehicles,
especially vehicles with a
trailer, tractors, muddy
vehicles, etc.
.Detect a vehicle when
weather limits visibility,
such as in fog, rain,
or snow.
.Detect a vehicle ahead if it
is partially blocked by
pedestrians or other
objects.
Complete attention is
always required while
driving, and you should be
ready to take action and (Continued)
Warning (Continued)
apply the brakes and/or
steer the vehicle to avoid
crashes.
AEB may slow the vehicle to a
complete stop to try to avoid a
potential crash. If this
happens, AEB may engage the
Electric Parking Brake (EPB)
to hold the vehicle at a stop.
Release the EPB or firmly
press the accelerator pedal.
{Warning
AEB may automatically
brake the vehicle suddenly in
situations where it is
unexpected and undesired.
It could respond to a turning
vehicle ahead, guardrails,
signs, and other non-moving
objects. To override AEB,
firmly press the accelerator
pedal, if it is safe to do so.
