WARNING
•
In certain situations, the system cannot
provide warnings or warnings may be
delayed if traffic conditions or other exter-
nal factors make it impossible for the
radar sensor or camera to detect a
pedestrian, a cyclist or a vehicle ahead.
•
Warnings may not be provided if the dis-
tance to the vehicle ahead is short, or if
movements of the steering wheel/brake
pedal are great, such as during active
driving.
•
The sensor system has a limited range for
pedestrians/cyclists and provides warn-
ings and braking effect most effectively at
speeds up to 30 mph (50 km/h). For sta-
tionary or slow-moving vehicles, the sys-
tem functions best if your vehicle’s speed
is below approximately 45 mph
(70 km/h).
•
Warnings for stationary or slow-moving
vehicles may not be provided in dark con-
ditions or in poor visibility.
The Pedestrian and Cyclist Detection with Full
Auto Brake system uses the same radar sensors
as Adaptive Cruise Control. For more information
on the radar sensor and its limitations, see
Adaptive Cruise Control – limitations (p. 186).
NOTE
If warnings are given too frequently, the warn-
ing distance can be reduced (see Collision
warning* – operation (p. 205)). This causes
the system to provide later warnings, which
decreases the total number of warnings provi-
ded.
WARNING
•
The system is not activated at speeds
under approx. 2 mph (4 km/h). Therefore,
it will not brake your vehicle if you
approach a vehicle ahead at very low
speed, such as when parking.
•
The driver's actions always have highest
priority and override the Pedestrian and
Cyclist Detection with Full Auto Brake
system. This means that the system will
not intervene in situations where the
driver is actively steering, braking or
pressing the accelerator pedal, even if a
collision is imminent.
•
When Auto-brake has prevented a colli-
sion with a stationary object, your vehicle
will remain at a standstill for approx.
1.5 seconds. If your vehicle has been
braked for a moving vehicle ahead, your
vehicle's speed will be reduced to the
same speed as that vehicle's.
