A system unavailable message may
display if:
.
The front of the vehicle or
windshield is not clean.

Heavy rain or snow is interfering

There is a problem with the

Front Pedestrian Braking
(FPB) System
If equipped, the FPB system may help
avoid or reduce the harm caused by
front-end crashes with nearby
pedestrians when driving in a forward
gear. FPB displays an amber indicator,
~
, when a nearby pedestrian is
detected ahead. When approaching a
detected pedestrian too quickly, FPB
provides a red flashing alert on the
windshield and rapidly beeps or pulses
the driver seat. FPB can provide a
boost to braking or automatically
brake the vehicle. This system
includes Intelligent Brake Assist (IBA),
and the Automatic Emergency Braking
(AEB) System may also respond to
pedestrians. See
.
The FPB system can detect and alert
to pedestrians in a forward gear at
speeds between 8 km/h (5 mph) and
80 km/h (50 mph). During daytime
driving, the system detects
pedestrians up to a distance of
approximately 40 m (131 ft). During
nighttime driving, system performance
is very limited. If the vehicle is
equipped with the Night Vision
system, during nighttime driving, the
vehicle can detect and alert to
pedestrians whenever in a
forward gear.
{
Warning
FPB does not provide an alert or
automatically brake the vehicle,
unless it detects a pedestrian. FPB
may not detect pedestrians,
including children:
.
When the pedestrian is not
directly ahead, fully visible,
or standing upright, or when part
of a group.
.
Due to poor visibility, including
nighttime conditions, fog, rain,
or snow.
.
If the FPB sensor is blocked by
dirt, snow, or ice.
.
If the headlamps or windshield
are not cleaned or in proper
condition.
