Follow these steps to set the FCW and Active Braking:
1. Press the “+ MORE” hard-key located on the lower
right side of the Uconnect® system.
2. Press the “Settings” soft-key.
3. Press the “Safety/Assistance” soft-key.
4. Press the first “FWD Collision W...” soft-key.
5. Press the “FWD Collision Warning” Far or Near
soft-key for your desired preference. Then press the
back arrow.
6. Press the second “FWD Collision W...” soft-key.
7. Press the “Active Braking” On or Off soft-key.
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.
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.
