Far
• The default status of FCW is the “Far” setting.
• The far setting provides warnings for potential collisions more distant in front of the
vehicle, allowing the driver to have the most reaction time to avoid a collision.
• This setting is designed to provide early warnings per NHTSA (National Highway Traffic
Safety Administration) recommendations.
• More cautious drivers that do not mind frequent warnings may prefer this setting.
NOTE:
This setting gives you the most reaction time.
Near
• Changing the FCW status to the “Near” setting, allows the system to warn you of a
potential frontal collision when you are much closer.
• This setting provides less reaction time than the “Far” setting, which allows for a more
dynamic driving experience.
• More dynamic or aggressive drivers that want to avoid frequent warnings may prefer this
setting.
Off
• Changing the FCW status to “Off” prevents the system from warning you of a potential
frontal collision.
NOTE:
• If FCW is set to “Off”, “FCW OFF” will be displayed in the EVIC.
• Refer to the Owner's Manual on the DVD for further details.
