Safety & Driving Assistance

After pressing the “Safety/Assistance” soft-key the fol-
lowing settings will be available:
Forward Collision Warning — If Equipped

The Front Collision Warning (FCW) feature provides an
audible and/or visual warning to potential forward
collisions. The feature can be can be set to Far, or set to
Near. The default status of FCW is the Far setting. This
means the system will warn you of a possible collision
with the vehicle in front of you when you are farther
away. This gives you the most reaction time. To change
the setting for more dynamic driving, select the Near
setting. This warns you of a possible collision when you
are much closer to the vehicle in front of you. To change

the FCW status, touch and release the “Near” or “Far”
button. Then touch the back arrow soft-key.

For further information, refer to “Adaptive Cruise Con-
trol (ACC)” in “Understanding The Features Of Your
Vehicle”.
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) — Active Braking

The FCW system includes Advanced Brake Assist (ABA).
When this feature is selected, the ABA applies additional
brake pressure when the driver requests insufficient
brake pressure to avoid a potential frontal collision. The
ABA system becomes active at 5 mph (8 km/h). To make
your selection, touch the “Forward Collision Warning
(FCW) with Mitigation - Active Braking” soft-key, until a
check-mark appears next to setting, indicating that the
setting had been selected. Touch the back arrow soft-key
to return to the previous menu. For further information,
refer to “Forward Collision Warning (FCW) With Mitiga-
tion” in “Understanding The Features Of Your Vehicle.”
