Forward Obstruction Warning

FORWARD OBSTRUCTION WARNING (FOW)

The Forward Obstruction Warning (FOW) system alerts the  
driver of a possible collision using an indicator in the active driving display 
and instrument cluster along with a warning sound.

The system operates 

when driving at 10 mph (15 km/h) or faster and  
the system’s radar sensor determines that your 
vehicle may hit a vehicle or obstruction ahead.

How to set the speed:

1

   Adjust the vehicle to the desired speed using the accelerator pedal.

2

   Push the SET + or SET – switch. The set speed and the inter-vehicle 

distance display filled with white lines is displayed in the active driving 

display and the MRCC indicator light (green) turns on simultaneously.

switch a longer distance by pushing the   switch. The distance-between-

vehicles can be set to 4 levels.

CAUTION:

 Do not rely completely on the MRCC system and always 

drive carefully obeying the speed limit.

NOTE:

The MRCC sometimes will brake your vehicle when passing a semi truck (tractor 

trailer). This is normal. Simply press the accelerator pedal to override the system.

NOTE:

FOW system can be turned off using Safety 

Settings in the Infotainment system.

WARNING:

FOW is only a supplementary system designed to reduce damage in 

the event of a collision. The FOW has limitations and does not detect all objects. Do not 

rely solely on the FOW. Relying solely on the FOW may cause an unexpected accident 

resulting in death or serious injury. Always keep your eyes on the road.
