SAFETY
333
NOTE:
Whenever an audible alert is requested by the
BSM system, the radio is also muted.
When the system is in RCP mode, the system
shall respond with both visual and audible
alerts when a detected object is present.
Whenever an audible alert is requested, the
radio is also muted. The RCP state always
requests the chime.
Blind Spot Alert Off
When the BSM system is turned off there will be
no visual or audible alerts from either the BSM
or RCP systems.
NOTE:
The BSM system will store the current operating
mode when the vehicle is shut off. Each time
the vehicle is started the previously stored
mode will be recalled and used.
Door Removal
When either the front driver or passenger door
is removed, the instrument cluster will display
“Blind Spot Temporarily Unavailable” and the
BSM system will disable. While the system will
continue to indicate whatever blind spot mode
it was previously in within the Uconnect system,
no visual or audible alerts will be provided. As
long as the doors are removed, the instrument
cluster will provide the “Blind Spot Temporarily
Unavailable” pop up as a reminder that the
system is disabled every time the ignition is
cycled.
Upon re-installation of both doors, the system
will resume functionality based on the
personalized mode selected.

FCW with Mitigation provides the driver with
audible warnings, visual warnings (within the
instrument cluster display), 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 collision. When the system determines
that a forward collision is probable, the driver
will be provided with audible and visual warn
-
ings as well as a possible 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 warn
-
ings 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.
