To turn the FCW system OFF, push the forward collision

button once to turn the system OFF (led turns on).
To turn the FCW system back ON, push the forward

collision button again to turn the system ON (led turns

off).
Changing the FCW status to “Off” prevents the system

from warning you of a possible collision with the vehicle

in front of you.
Changing the Active Braking status to “Off” prevents the

system from providing limited autonomous braking, or

additional brake support if the driver is not braking

adequately in the event of a potential frontal collision.
NOTE:

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 And Active Braking Status

The FCW Sensitivity And Active Braking Settings are

programmable through the Uconnect® System. Refer to

“Uconnect® Settings” in “Understanding Your Instru-

ment Panel” for further information.
The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting and the

Active Braking 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 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.
