Emergency brake assistance
system (Front Assist)*
Introduction
Fig. 210
On the instrument panel display: ad-
vance warning indications.
The objective of the system is to prevent
head-on collisions against objects that may
be in the vehicle’s path or minimise the con-
sequences of such impacts.
Depending on several factors and how criti-
cal the situation is, the system operates in a
staggered manner. First it warns the driver,
and if the driver’s reaction does not occur or
is insufficient, it activates independent
emergency braking.
The function is intended to prevent collisions
with parked vehicles or vehicles in the same
lane travelling in the same direction, or with
pedestrians crossing the vehicle’s path or
