Display Warnings And Maintenance

“Wipe Front Radar Sensor In Front Of Vehicle”
Warning
The “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor”

warning will display and also a chime will indicate when

conditions temporarily limit system performance.
This most often occurs at times of poor visibility, such as

in snow or heavy rain. The ACC system may also become

temporarily blinded due to obstructions, such as mud,

dirt or ice. In these cases, the DID will display “ACC/

FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor” and the

system will deactivate.
The “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar Sensor”

message can sometimes be displayed while driving in

highly reflective areas (i.e. tunnels with reflective tiles, or

ice and snow). The ACC system will recover after the

vehicle has left these areas. Under rare conditions, when

the radar is not tracking any vehicles or objects in its path

this warning may temporarily occur.
NOTE:

If the “ACC/FCW Unavailable Wipe Front Radar

Sensor” warning is active Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise

Control is still available. For additional information refer

to “Normal (Fixed Speed) Cruise Control Mode” in this

section.
If weather conditions are not a factor, the driver should

examine the sensor. It may require cleaning or removal of

an obstruction. The sensor is located in the center of the

vehicle behind the lower grille.
