Automatic Post-Collision Braking System
In the event of an accident, the Automatic Post-Collision Braking
System can help the driver to reduce the risk of skidding and the
danger of secondary collisions through automatic braking.
The Automatic Post-Collision Braking System only functions in
frontal, side, and rear collisions if the airbag control unit registers
the corresponding triggering threshold during the accident, and the
accident occurs at a speed greater than 6 mph (10 km/h).
The ESC brakes the vehicle automatically, provided that the
hydraulic braking system, the ESC, and the electrical system are
undamaged in the accident and remain functional.
