without the system using foundation
brakes. If the brakes are not engaged by
the driver, the system will attempt to slow
the vehicle by applying the brakes to assist
the driver in reducing the severity of or
potentially avoiding a collision. At this
point, the information display will change
from yellow to red and the driver must take
immediate evasive action by applying more
braking power and/or steering clear of the
vehicle ahead to avoid a potential collision.
The system can also detect stationary
objects in the vehicles path. The operator
needs to take control of the vehicle to
avoid the stationary object. The icon will be
accompanied with a pop-up message but
no audible sound.

Vehicle Speed Limitation
for Special Applications
Speed limitation for special applications
consists of a switch which is fitted on the
vehicle superstructure. With this switch, the
vehicle speed can be limited to a
preprogrammed value. The programmed
value can be modified by an authorized
Service dealer on request.
Driving Style
The following recommendations result in
improved economy without adversely
affecting the vehicle speed (i.e. slowing
down). In other words: an efficient driving
style. Anticipate traffic and other
conditions; release the accelerator pedal in
time (zero fuel consumption) and
do not
press down on the accelerator when it is
not necessary
