Forward Collision Alert
(FCA) System
If equipped, FCA may help avoid orreduce the harm caused byfront-end crashes. FCA provides a
green indicator,V,whenavehicle

SeeForward Collision Alert (FCA)System0304.
Forward Automatic
Braking (FAB)
If the vehicle has Forward CollisionAlert (FCA), it also has FAB, whichincludes Intelligent BrakeAssist (IBA). When the systemdetects a vehicle ahead in your paththat is traveling in the samedirection that you may be about tocrash into, it can provide a boost tobraking or automatically brake the
vehicle. This can help avoid orlessen the severity of crashes whendriving in a forward gear.
SeeForward Automatic Braking(FAB)0306.

marking without using a turn signalin that direction. It may also provideaLaneDepartureWarning(LDW)alert as the lane marking is crossed.The system will not assist or alert ifit detects that you are activelysteering. Override LKA by turningthe steering wheel. LKA uses acamera to detect lane markingsbetween 60 km/h (37 mph) and180 km/h (112 mph).
