DRIVING
Forward Collision Warning ( FCW)*
If the camera mounted between the windshield and the rearview mirror det\
ects 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 pr\
ovides you with
visual and audible warnings.
If you do not brake in time or take preventive
action, BRAKE appears in the display and a
beep sounds continuously.
Changing Settings
Determine the alert timing or turn the system off using Customize Settin\
gs menu in
the Vehicle Menu in the i-MID. Use the steering wheel controls to make and en\
ter
selections (see page 38).
1. Press the MENU button on the steering wheel.
2. Select Customize Settings.
3. Select Driving Support System Setup.
4. Select Forward Collision Warning Distance.
5. Select Long, Normal, Short, or Off.
6. Press MENU to exit the menu.
Important Safety Reminder
FCW cannot detect all objects ahead and may not detect a given object; a\
ccuracy
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 resp\
onsibility to
safely operate the vehicle and avoid collisions.
*if equipped
Beep
Lane Departure Warning ( LDW)*
A camera mounted between the windshield and the rearview mirror determin\
es if
your vehicle begins to move away from the center of a detected lane whil\
e driving
between 40–90 mph (64–145 km/h).
If you cross a detected lane line without
using your turn signal, a LANE DEP ARTURE
message appears on the display and a
beep sounds.
Turning LDW On or Off
Press LDW to turn the system on or off. A green
indicator light appears on the button when the
system is on.
Important Safety Reminder
Like all assistance systems, LDW has limitations. Over-reliance on LDW may result
in a collision. It is always your responsibility to keep the vehicle wit\
hin your lane.
LDW only alerts you when lane drift is detected without a turn signal in\
use. LDW
may not detect all lane markings or lane departures; accuracy will vary \
based on
weather, speed, and lane marker condition. It is always your responsibility to \
safely
operate the vehicle and avoid collisions.
