The FCA system is to reduce or to

pedestrian or the cyclist through the
sensors (i.e. radar and camera), and,
if necessary, warns the driver of acci-
dent risk with the warning message
or the warning alarms.

WARNING
Take the following precautions
when using the forward colli-
sion-avoidance assist (FCA):
• This system is only a supple-
mental system and it is not
intended to, nor does it replace
the need for extreme care and
attention of the driver. The
sensing range and objects
detectable by the sensors are
limited. Pay attention to the
road conditions at all times.
• NEVER drive too fast in accor-
dance with the road condi-
tions or whilst cornering.
• Always drive cautiously to
prevent unexpected and sud-
den situations from occur-
ring. FCA does not stop the
vehicle completely and does
not avoid collisions.
