Important Safety Reminder

Like all assistance systems, LaneWatch has limitations. Over-reliance on the system
may result in a collision.

Failure to visually confi rm that it is safe to change lanes before doing so may
result in a crash and serious injury or death.

Do not rely only on LaneWatch while driving. Always look in your mirrors, to
either side of your vehicle, and behind you for other vehicles before changing
lanes.

WARNING

*if equipped

Forward Collision Warning (FCW)*

If the camera mounted between the windshield and the rearview mirror detects a
vehicle in front of you when your vehicle speed is 10 mph (15 km/h) or higher—and it
determines there is a likelihood of a frontal collision—the system provides you with
visual and audible warnings.

If you do not brake in time or take preventive action, BRAKE fl ashes in the display or
the FCW indicator blinks, and a beep sounds continuously.

Changing Settings

Determine the warning timing, or turn the system off. Use the interface dial to
make and enter selections.

1. Press SETTINGS.

2. Select Vehicle Settings. The vehicle must be in

Park (P).

3. Select Forward Collision Warning Distance.

4. Select Long, Normal, Short, or Off.

5. Press BACK to exit the menu.

Important Safety Reminder

FCW cannot detect all objects ahead and may not detect a given object; accuracy
of the system will vary based on weather, speed, extreme interior heat, and other
factors. FCW does not include a braking function. It is always your responsibility to
safely operate the vehicle and avoid collisions.
