The Forward Collision Alert (FCA) system provides

an audible and visual alert if you approach a vehicle too

quickly that is directly ahead. FCA also provides a

visual alert with no audible alert if you are following

another vehicle much too closely. The FCA alert symbol

is located on top of the instrument panel to the right

of the driver. FCA uses the Adaptive Cruise Control

radar to detect a vehicle directly ahead, in your path,

within a distance of 328 ft (100 m) and operates at

speeds above 20 mph (32 km/h).

{CAUTION:

FCA is only a warning system and does not

apply the brakes. When you are approaching a

vehicle or object too rapidly or when you are

following a vehicle too closely that is ahead of

you, FCA may not provide you with enough

time to avoid a collision. FCA is not designed

to warn the driver of pedestrians or animals.

Your complete attention is always required

while driving and you should be ready to

take action and apply the brakes. For more

information, see Defensive Driving on page 4-2.

The FCA control is located

on the steering wheel.

To enable or disable FCA, press the Adaptive Cruise

Control button. See Adaptive Cruise Control on

page 3-19.

FCA is enabled when the green light on the button is lit.

FCA is disabled when the indicator light is amber.
