ACTIVE CITY BRAKE
Active City Brake is a driving
assistance system that aims to avoid
a frontal collision or reduce the speed
of an impact if the driver does not
react sufficiently (inadequate brake
application).
This system is designed to
improve driving safety.
It remains the driver's
responsibility to continuously
monitor the state of the traffic and
to assess the distances and relative
speeds of other vehicles.
Active City Brake can in no
circumstances replace the need for
vigilance on the part of the driver.
Never look at the laser sensor
through an optical instrument
(magnifying glass, microscope...)
at a distance of less than
10 centimetres: risk of eye injury.
Principle
Using a laser sensor located at the top
of the windscreen, this system detects
a vehicle running in the same direction
or stationary ahead of your vehicle.
When necessary, the vehicle's braking
system is operated automatically
to avoid a collision with the vehicle
ahead.
Automatic braking occurs later
than if done by the driver, so as
to intervene only when there is a
high risk of collision.
Conditions for activation
Active City Brake only operates if the
following conditions are met:
● ignition on,
● the vehicle is in a forward gear,
● speed is between about 3 and
18 mph (5 and 30 km/h),
● the braking assistance systems
(ABS, EBFD, emergency braking
assistance) are not faulty,
● the trajectory control systems
(ASR, DSC) are not deactivated or
faulty,
● the vehicle is not in a tight corner,
● the system has not been triggered
during the previous 10 seconds.
