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 state is kept in memory from

one key 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. Refer to “Uconnect® Settings”

in “Understanding Your Instrument Panel” for further

information.
The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting is 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. 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 car, 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 unavailable

screens.
