WARNING
City Safety is designed to be a supplementary
driving aid.
It cannot detect large animals in all situations
such as:
•
large animals that are partially obscured
•
large animals straight from the front or
rear
•
large animals that are running or moving
quickly
•
large animals that have limited contrast to
their immediate background. A warning or
braking may be delayed or not come at
all.
•
smaller animals such as dogs or cats
The driver is always responsible for operating
the vehicle in a safe manner.

City Safety in crossing traffic
City Safety can help the driver when turning in
the path of an oncoming vehicle in an intersec-
tion.
Turning at an intersection
1. The area in which City Safety can detect an oncoming
vehicle
In order for City Safety to detect an approaching
vehicle in situations where there is a risk of a col-
lision, that vehicle must be within City Safety's
range (the red area in the illustration).
The following criteria must also be met:
•
your vehicle's speed must be at least 3 mph
(4 km/h)
•
the approaching vehicle's headlights must be
on
•
your vehicle must be making a left turn
WARNING
•
City Safety is a supplementary driving aid
and does not function in all driving situa-
tions or in all traffic, weather or road con-
ditions.
•
Warnings and braking for an approaching
vehicle will usually come at a very late
stage.
•
The driver is responsible for maintaining a
safe distance and speed. Never wait for a
warning or for City Safety to take action.
Limitations in crossing traffic
In certain situations, it may be very difficult for
City Safety to help the driver avoid a collision with
an approaching vehicle in crossing traffic, for
example:
•
on slippery roads when Electronic Stability
Control is active
•
if the approaching vehicle is detected at a
late stage
•
If the approaching vehicle is partially
obscured by another vehicle
•
if the approaching vehicle moves erratically
(e.g., sudden lane changes at a late stage)
