160 Driving and operating
Front pedestrian protection uses the
front camera in the windscreen to
detect a pedestrian directly ahead, in
your path.
The system triggers different level of
alerts depending on the risk of
collision detected. The alerts are
displayed in the Driver Information
Centre.
Level 1: A visual alert is displayed.
Level 2: A visual alert is displayed and
an audible alert sounds.
9 Danger
Front pedestrian braking does not
provide an alert or automatically
brake the vehicle, unless it detects
a pedestrian.
The system may not detect
pedestrians, including children,
when the pedestrian is not directly
ahead, not fully visible, not
standing upright, or when part of a
group.
Caution
The colour lighting of this control
indicator does not correspond to
local traffic laws on following
distance. The driver bears full
responsibility for maintaining safe
following distance according to
applicable traffic rules, weather
and road conditions etc. at all
times.
When the time to a potential collision
with a pedestrian in front gets too
small and a collision is imminent, a
warning is displayed in the Driver
Information Centre.
Simultaneously a warning chime
sounds. Depress the brake pedal and
steer the vehicle, if it is required by the
situation.
