On my center dash the "FCW" warning is yellow and says it is off. I have no idea where to get the light off the dash or where there is a link to show that the FCW is working. The warning buzzer does go off when I get close to an object from the front side. From the main center screen I see nothing that gives me the option to show that the FCW is on or off. Anyone have this situation before? Thanks...

That icon is for Forward Collision Warning, check in the settings on the radio Safety and Driving Assistance for the option to turn it On/Off
This is an optional warning that will notify if your approaching an object too fast which could result in a collision. It operates at speeds higher that the Park Assist.
The only way to "test" the FCW is to time it closely enough when someone is turning in front of you that just miss them. This is a speed related distance that sets it off, the slower your moving the closer you have to get to the other vehicle.
