FORWARD COLLISION WARNING (FCW) WITH
MITIGATION
Forward Collision Warning (FCW) With Mitigation Operation
The Forward Collision Warning (FCW) system with mitigation provides the driver with
audible warnings, visual warnings (within the EVIC/DID), and may apply a brake jerk
to warn the driver when it detects a potential frontal collision. The warnings and
limited braking are intended to provide the driver with enough time to react, avoid or
mitigate the potential collision.
NOTE:
FCW monitors the information from the forward looking sensors as well as the
Electronic Brake Controller (EBC), to calculate the probability of a forward colli-
sion. When the system determines that a forward collision is probable, the driver
will be provided with audible and visual warnings and may provide a brake jerk
warning.
If the driver does not take action based upon these progressive warnings, then the
system will provide a limited level of active braking to help slow the vehicle and
mitigate the potential forward collision. If the driver reacts to the warnings by braking
and the system determines that the driver intends to avoid the collision by braking
but has not applied sufficient brake force, the system will compensate and provide
additional brake force as required.
Vehicles With A Manual Transmission: After the end of the intervention of automatic
braking, the engine could stall, unless the driver can depress the clutch pedal.
Vehicles With Automatic Transmission: After the end of the intervention of automatic
braking, the transmission may remain in last gear stored: therefore the car could
lurch forward, once the brakes release a few seconds later.
OPERATING YOUR VEHICLE

• Changing the Active Braking to “Off” prevents the system from providing limited
active braking, or additional brake support if the driver is not braking adequately
in the event of a potential frontal collision, but maintains the audible and visual
warnings.
• Changing the status of the system is only possible with the vehicle at a complete
stop.
NOTE:
The FCW system state is not kept in memory from one key cycle to the next. If the
system is turned OFF, it will turn On when the vehicle is restarted.
Changing FCW And Active Braking Status
By changing the settings on the menu of the Uconnect®system, you can change the
sensitivity of the system by choosing one of the following three options: "Near",
"Medium" or "Far".
The default option is "Medium". This setting provides that the system notify the driver
of a possible accident with the vehicle ahead of it when the latter is at a standard
distance, intermediate between the other two possible settings.
By setting the sensitivity of the system to "Far", the system will warn the driver of a
possible accident with the vehicle in front when the latter is at a greater distance,
giving you the chance to act on the brakes in a more limited and gradual. This setting
gives the driver the maximum possible time of reaction to prevent a possible
accident.
By changing the option to "Near", the system will warn the driver of a possible
accident with the vehicle ahead of it when the latter is a reduced distance. This
setting offers a reaction time to the driver lower than the settings "Medium" and "Far",
in the case of a potential accident, while a more dynamic driving of the car.
The setting of the sensitivity of the system is maintained in memory when the engine
is switched off.
FCW Limited Warning
If the EVIC/DID displays “FCW Limited Functionality” or “FCW Limited Functionality
Clean Front Windshield” momentarily, there may be a condition that limits FCW
functionality. Although the vehicle is still drivable under normal conditions, the
active braking may not be fully available. Once the condition that limited the system
performance is no longer present, the system will return to its full performance state.
If the problem persists, see your authorized dealer.
Service FCW Warning
If the system turns off, and the EVIC/DID displays:
• FCW Unavailable Service Required
This indicates there is an internal system fault. Although the vehicle is still drivable
under normal conditions, have the system checked by an authorized dealer.

drive in one or more 360–degree turns (in an area free from large metal or metallic
objects). The compass will now function normally.
Variance
Compass Variance is the difference between Magnetic North and Geographic North. Tocompensate for the differences, the variance should be set for the zone where thevehicle is driven, per the zone map. Once properly set, the compass will automaticallycompensate for the differences and provide the most accurate compass heading.
NOTE:
Keep magnetic materials away from the top of the instrument panel, such as iPod's,
Mobile Phones, Laptops, and Radar Detectors. This is where the compass module is
located, and it can cause interference with the compass sensor, and it may give false
readings.
