GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE

Collision Warning (FCW) Sensor Protective 

Cover — If Equipped

Your vehicle may be equipped with a protective 

cover that is to be used whenever the 

windshield is folded down in order to protect the 

ACC/FCW sensor. To install the cover, follow the 

instructions below:
1. Secure the top part of the cover so that it 

hinges to the header.

2. Swing the cover down and push on it so that 

it covers the opening.

3. Check to make sure the cover is secured 

properly.

Protective Cover Installed

NOTE:

Be sure to remove the cover before returning 

the windshield to the normal position. Store the 

cover in the cargo area.
Cleaning Instructions
During windshield down applications, dust/dirt 

can accumulate in the cover and block the 

camera lens. Use a microfiber cloth to clean the 

camera lens, module, and inside cover, being 

careful not to damage or scratch the module.
