Introduction
Collision Warning with Full Auto-brake and
Pedestrian Detection is designed to assist the
driver if there is a risk of a collision with a
pedestrian, a vehicle ahead that is at a stand-
still or one that is moving in the same direction
as your vehicle.
Collision Warning consists of the following
three functions:
•
Collision Warning warns the driver of a
potential collision situation.
•
Brake Support helps the driver brake effi-
ciently in a critical situation.
•
Auto-brake brakes the vehicle automati-
cally if a collision with a pedestrian or
another vehicle cannot be avoided and the
driver does not apply the brakes in time or
steer around the person/vehicle. Auto-
brake can help prevent a collision or
reduce the speed at which a collision
occurs.
Since Collision Warning with Full Auto-brake
and Pedestrian Detection is activated in cir-
cumstances where the driver should have
begun braking much sooner, the system will
not be able to assist the driver in all situations.
This system is designed to activate as late as
possible to help avoid unnecessary interven-
tion.
The system should not be used in such a way
that the driver changes his/her way of operat-
ing the vehicle. If the driver relies entirely on the
system, the chances of an accident eventually
occurring increase considerably.
The Collision Warning and City Safety™ sys-
tems supplement each other. See page 167 for
detailed information about City Safety™.
WARNING
No automatic system can be guaranteed to
function 100% correctly in all situations. For
that reason, never test the Auto-brake sys-
tem by driving toward a person or object.
This could result in serious injury or death.
WARNING
•
Collision Warning does not work in all
driving, traffic, weather and road condi-
tions. It does not react to vehicles not
traveling in the same direction as your
vehicle.
•
Collision Warning does not react to ani-
mals.
•
Warnings are only provided when the
risk of collision is high. The "Function"
section provides information about lim-
itations that the driver must be aware of
before using Collision Warning.
•
Collision Warning will not provide a
warning or brake the vehicle for pedes-
trians at speeds above 50 mph
(80 km/h).
